Nothing bias. EP........The Tamiya Series by Ong Chee Yong and co really successful to me.

At least there's control. People more willing to invest something like this.

They knows they are racing not battle of upgrade.

Does it really matter...?

budachi

Only if it was a 1 person race I suppose ...

All this driver already taste victory in their rc hobby,they really work for it.Put effort TIME AND MONEY just to create their names in MALAYSIAN rc.I believe 1 day MALAYSIA will have a world class driver.Put serious in rc and u will learn more.Money and time will payback when u perform in rc.Money and time is indivisual issue,the more u spent time and money the more u will learn.Hope more new good driver born in malaysia.Just ask them any question they will help u,remember all top driver don't talk so much.They all very nice guy.

To me there is a huge distinction between local races and world renowned once. Do you think your SPM is equivalanet to the international O levels?

Well if you think that Club race and World race champion are the same then......

Thank God I have no interntion to be a top driver therefore I can talk cock all day long but I beg to differ from your observation in saying ALL are very nice guys........I would rather say NOT ALL are very nice in fact some are not nice at ALL!

Local yes...........

Overseas.........IFMAR and FEMCA event.......Sorry NO..........we don't have one yet.

All those races Kyosho Cup, Mugen Cup, Futaba Cup, GS Cup, Hobao Cup, or whatever cup....in M'sia, Thailand, Singapore and Indonesia, this are manufacturer's event and not even consider any international event.

Local system no ranking......just go and race and tapao...go home.

Ranking system.....series race is year long event......6 to 8 races.......2 to 3 classes normally.....sportsman, expert and novice group. Year end all class have their top 3 finisher.

Think in a bigger picture, you did not get my point... Sorry, I've looked beyond that typical shallow mentality of "local no good, ang mo the best" mentality. In my field, I've seen enough to know and to judge what I see, and have my full respect towards local professionals. Anyway, this was not my point...

What are we talking about here? We are talking about the best rc driver in Malaysia mind you... IF you only know your list of good local drivers thru international races that they won, then no driver in Malaysia is good enough to be worth mentioning? At all?

Drivers in Malaysia do not race overseas often, because we treat this as a passion-driven hobby, not something we can make a living out of. It is simply not applicable if you judge our drivers in such way.

Oh ok...so what you are only thinking about is...Club race is different than World race...PERIOD. Wong Soo Wei, Steven Afiq, Azri Amri, LKH and Desmond Lam (just to name a few) were dominating EVERY races in year 2001-2003, but all local races....they are not worth mentioning as one of the "top drivers in Malaysia" then? We do not have a ranking system, but if you're long enough to be in the hobby to make some judgement; one should know that in order for a driver to be able to get into the A-main consistently amongst a certain list of drivers, is already considered an effort/achievement to be reckoned with. Our drivers are not bad at all, just that it is the nature of the rc hobby in our country that prevents our drivers to go further into the international scene.

You are in the "Who is the best r/c driver in Malaysia" thread...

Danny Teh

iTrader: (7)

Yeap.....I agree all listed are good......but to have one of the best to do well in the international circuit, I am afraid there's none.

You said it correctly........we treat it as a hobby just like I said. We are amateurs. Those mat sallehs are pro and they are very good. Not shallow mentality lah !

Going overseas are not that difficult nowadays ! Many just went including myself to see why they are so fast ? There's no explaination for it. There are plain smooth and fast. The fastest lap is like some 3-5 seconds a lap compared to us. So like our local A main compared with D or E main....sorry no offence to lower drivers. But we are like E main compared to them or worse. We don't make a impact and just not yet.

Same car and equipment like I mention before. Fuel same and everything same. Extraordinary ! Standard equipment......

Just to discuss who is the best in local already headache. That's the statement.

To summarise, like mention all are good. To counter assault the world, we have zero drivers, For local races, there's plenty who can win in a single race.

Overseas cannot make it loh. That's the fact. Our system need to change in order for those maybe can do better. WE need new drivers who can adapt a different system to determine the consistency of the drivers.

You are merely complicating things for yourself with your lack of comprehension, the whole pictures revolves AROUND Malaysia as the topic says I dont know from where you think my list of drivers are the ang mohs obviously you have merely read my posts and not understand it throughly, I may not be in this arena as long as you are (maybe) but I have observed the consistent A main drivers,yes, and the list as what you have mentioned,so where is the beef?

Have I said any of our racers are not good?If I did, please show me where i have erred (that is a dare,in case you dont understand it),by the way, do you think club race is the SAME as the international race? (another dare).....oh! before I forget, Dont go putting words in my mouth, I asked you if local race are the same as the internationals,it wasnt a statement.

That is exactly my point! and I am wondering when did I say they arent good cause they dont take part in international races? I did mention "in my opinion" a good racer is an all rounder, that is all.

I respect Afiq's opinion of the list of drivers he has stated but I was just curious to find out what are these races that they have excelled in. Whether they are local races or international ones and then here you come like a blind bat accusing me a pro ang moh .......dude! dont be so emotional laaa.......think before you open your mouth

I am amazed at how many actually can read and understand then debate like with integrity, many just resort to charactor attack....shallow and incapacitated.I blame the education system
