Hey ... InitialD and me argue like nuts here and its just for fun. I think you got issues man. Go seek some help ... get your head straightened out. Who appointed you the police of the Malaysian RC Federation? You sound like US now la ... so self righteous.

I did not say I am not bothered, just said to leave people alone.
I my self agree with you that it's just for fun... but this Mr. Pro guy is too much condemning the RC races and all.

Well, perhaps his words were overly critical and perhaps too caustic for some. Next change please.

Ummm, interesting... Perhaps you care to elaborate what you mean by this by giving examples?

As a giver of money - To acquire a reliable car and to support your practices and maintain the race-worthiness of the car, not mentioning the spends on race day itself

As a receiver of money (vendors and "track commandos") - Have they considered balancing their margins versus encouraging the hobby. Look at how the pricing of 710 was done when it reached the stores (among themselves) and compared when they ordered their stocks.

You need exceptional ego to be challenging and competitive, as in for any sports that you wish to excel in.

But on the receiving end of an egoistical person, everyone will be envious of him and her, just like between a celebrity and a layperson.

Therefore if there is anything worse than alcoholism.....RC is one of the top contenders.

Just an opinion.

I don't know what you're trying to get at... Perhaps you're hinting that the margins are very low for the LHS in their pursuit to get more response to the hobby? Are you sure? If there's any business that you should venture, I think RC is one of them.

Maybe... Maybe not. Look at personalities like Josh Cyrul and Barry Baker. They survive all these years and still liked by a lot of people. How is this even possible if they had lots of ego?

Oh yes. We do not live in a perfect world. There's no one person that is liked fully by ALL people.

I agree in terms of addiction but in terms of directly damaging health and directly endangering your life and other people's life, they are definitely two different things. Alcoholism certainly does that.

Just my 2 cents.

best way to survive ... is:
- don't understand english
- smile a lot
- acknowledge everyone you see
- say "Yes" to everything ...

did someone say Kanai?

j/k ..

The world revolves and evolves around critics, without them, there will not be any new inventions, advancements & improvements!!.... Just my 2 cents.
