Then everyone in here CANNOT beat the full service I get in my home track : Senayan JITC

1. personal marshalls ( pick up my car, clean it, wash the body )
2. personal mechanic ( refueling, engine starting, engine cleaning, car rebuild )
3. caddy and parking service ( manage parking space, open the boot and carry my equipments to the pit area )
4. Coffeshop waitress ( just shout and your drink comes )
5. LHS shopkeepers ( just call and your parts comes )
6. Free Delivery service for MacDonalds, KFC, Pizza Hut.

If I want Japanese restaurants, Lawrys, I could always go to 5 star shopping mall next door ( 5 minutes ).

Guest drivers from Europe drop his jaws and pop out his eyes to see the full services hahaha

Where can i get this RB engine from online? Also where can i get novarossi's cheap? how much are they? I wouldnt go for the mugen as it costs a bit too much for me, and i can put the extra monet towards a starter box. Which one by the way? do you need special rd logic ones?

I thought novarossi were the best engine and most expensive ??? Would it be a good idea to get an no-name engine that looks like a good racing engine?

Do i need rear exhaust engine for mongoose?

that Senayan JITC track looks awesome!!

I think that any high-end level car would be good. As for engine what are the local guys running, start with them first. They will be able to help you with the fuel and tuning of the engine.

I have a HPI R40 with HPI 12R XS engine and RDLogics outlaw II pipe. The car is really fast and suits my driving style. I use sidewinder 30% fuel and my engine temp. is usually around 260 F. (a little over 100 deg. C) The HPI engine is a good and strong engine and I am able to run with Mugens (they will pull down the straight alot harder than my engine will) I just cannot afford a Mugen though. I like the HPI engine because it has taken alot of abuse and lasted for more than two years of playing and racing.

As for tires, you can run rubber tires at my track if you like but you will not get the traction that a foam tire will have. You could use the rubber tires for drifting.

It seems that alot of people on here have nice tracks to race at but all we have are road rails that we put up in the hobby shops parking lot. It still is fun though.
