Default hi organiser

hi guys, this time round, race is as usual? all sorts of GT class together? just for suggestion, maybe this is more fun....maybe separate diff car chassis? cos its not fun to complete with fast car, maybe can set as wat stargek type of race? find it is more fun? Just a suggestion.

We had 2 class the last race.
Touring Class & Fun Class

Touring (9 mins duration, no motor limit and any brand of car)

Fun (5 mins duration, anything on wheels can run)

What do you have in mind? The problem is we will not have that many diff cars chassis to even conduct a class by it own. How many 415 join last round? less than 5. how many tt01 last round? less than 3.
your input is nice but we have issues with the numbers to give them individual class...
anyway, pls tell us what you have so that your inputs can always be considered when the time comes.

It's just a Rojak Race anyway. Anything goes.

Please remember that the organisers did this strictly out of FUN.

I'll give up Fun Class for now.

Pardon me.

I believe the intention of the organisers to have this Rojak Race is NOT to limit any use of chassis so that everyone can participate like long time ago... that gather RC hobbists together to have fun.

If the race format have to change it like a typical TAC classification then it will not serve any purpose.

An example: Do we get to see the EVOs, TRF415s, TA05s & MSs, F103GTs, Cyclones, T1s, T2s in the same race?

Actually with all this mixture of 4WD & 2WD chassis together, there isn't any significant advantage to anyone in particular, it is still a level playing field for the drivers to survive the fun and grueling 9 mins. for drivers, batteries, tires, motors etc...

So let us continue this race format. You will get to love them!

It will be nice to have that F103GTM in that funny worm cover chasing down by the rest...

I think it was shy to race. Don't know why it just never performed as well as any other day.

Also, I want to rest, rather than rushing for each class. It's really no time for damages, in case of any.

My theory differs.

Since i'm going to spend a day at the track, I'm gona make the most of my track time.
1 car, 2 classes = Adrenalin rush! on track and in pits! Change motor/do tires/cool motor/ peak cells/ clean car/ return transponder!

But yeah, i do agree, if sway sway Phoenix become Rooster, break something, really little time to fix. Sacrifice the next run lor...
That said, my cousin Wei Quan broke his front arm, but he managed to make the next run, but not without 9 other angry drivers waiting in the sun while he struggled to make the grid....

Wait till I get my M03 running....

In GP buggies, any make will race together, the only limit is the engine (i think).
When I went down to PA for the GP on road race, it is also the same.
So leave the TAC format to Tamiya, we should continue the open format (any type of chassis), maybe can limit certain stuffs for every different race, motor, tyres, batt, etc etc

Or better still, race touring without shell....hahahah u will be confused...

hi guys... thanks for the enthusiasm and support...

we're really glad you're looking forward to the next race, but if i'm not wrong we MAY have a problem with the date.

so watch out for updates... when we get any confirmation we'll post it up...

meanwhile, i'm turning blue from holding my breath.
