Good things about playing RC in Indonesia :
- Porters ( to carry your stuffs from car parking to track )
- Cleaners & Marshalling service ( to pick up your cars and clean the cars )
- Mechanics service ( he is your pitman during race, and does small jobs )
- Delivery Service ( just shout and anything you said will be on table, for examples, drinks, foods, glowplugs, tires, fuel, belts, parts etc. )
Tips for mechanics $7 to $10 if you win.
Tips for cleaners & marshalling $2
Tips for porters $1
Tips for delivery service : no tips
We have good life in here......

Here is a little story. I have an american expatriate friend working in Jakarta, for oil drilling company. He lived here in Jakarta for 5 years. When his company in USA replace him with somebody else...... he cried. He makes all kind of excuse for not being replace..... why ?
Here is why ? In his house ( rented by the company ), he has swimming pool, drivers, maids, security guards. So when he go back to California, he has NO more amenities : drive alone, wash laundry, no personal secretary, no young girls look after him after work, etc.
Ditto stories with Japanese expatriates. When they are replaced....... they think subway and small house back in Tokyo.

Having problems with the front outdrives and the skyline cvd's. The cvd's seem to have worn a groove in the outdrives the cvd's shaft pins that go into the outdrives have worn into an oval shape. I think there is too much play between these two parts but is this normal? Are there better made aftermarket parts to resolve this issue?
