Very true indeed. Bro, dun give up the hobby...this hobby is dying in Singapore so we need to make it grow. Only with more people in this hobby, we could do something collectively. The govt then could not ignore the needs of such "sports", perhaps building a proper track for us can be a reality.

At this moment, we should treasure the opportunity to be able to play at DIOT. Just need to treat the track users and the track with respect, contribute a small part to it one way or another within our means. I think with this in mind, the track could last a long long time and benefit many people.

What this guys said is very true as i also feel that playing on-road cars ppl are not so friendly than ppl playing off-road cars... that's is why i prefer playing off road..

Hi Roy
Thank you once again for the assurance given by an old bird I believe majority of us take care of the track in one way or another. Because of my family commitment, I may not be able to avail myself physically to carry out improvement works to the track. But I always make it a point to keep the place tidy, clean up whatever mess/rubbish left behind by anybody, pick up ciggy butts and bring out any rubbish away from the track.

yes, bro intelligent4's postings can be at times quite discouraging... But I guess people have mood swing, probably he wrote those angry notes during those particular days of the month No hard feelings really, cheers and we race one day at track, ok?

mainly coz my budget but if saying such stuff like "not contributing"
is really not nice thing to say. my type of person simple
you dont like the ppl playing just come up to their face and say ure not welcome
dont go beat around the bush.
If contributing such as house cleaning i bet we all can do it
here's an idea
maybe can put up some signage to clear up pit/docking/work area
buy some Huge Bag plastic trash bag and place it near a place.
like how u do in a Chalet. i saw u guys have a drawer and key why not stash the trash bag there buy bulk and place a box for donation to buy trash bag or other stuff seriously with this i think you can give ppl a chance to contribute
i mean c'mon how much this cost? less den $10 contributing $1-2 is enuf to stock up for following week. Cleanliness is main priority rite?
end of the day those who are leaving just go to the nearest table
and remind to clear up the place and help clear out the trash and thorw near defu lane 1 or 2.
this my idea to contribute i tell i you Sg is small why fight when can work things out like adults. im 24 i think those older den me shud noe.
Personal commitments can dont say. we all have out own. But when come to this put our heads together.

peace out i might be coming this sunday morning and ill do as what i said above to kick start a fresh healthy community.
Hi bro, dun give up the hobby. Lets do our small part in upkeeping the track. I think most people who use the track will be able to find information or update here in RC Tech. So maybe it is easier to keep all notices or update here instead of putting up notices at the track. Ultimately, this track is still on State Land and it is advisable to keep it as simple as we can in order not to arouse unnecessary attention.

BUT, this is not my point of discussion today. This is a small community, no point fighting here and there. We may as well concentrate our time in perfecting our driving skills. Make More Friends and no Foes - World Peace!
Welcum back 2 this wonderful hobby boss !.

I guess now we hv a 'oldest man' after the long MIAed HN boss 'older man' & me the 'old man'. Ok, let's not make a mountain out of a mole-hill & enjoy this hobby. Maybe Intelligent4 has not gotten over his great leader's passing & was too harsh in his post. It's just a small matter, so let's not sweat over it guys.

@aspire boss, thks 4 ur idea.

However, there r oredi 2 x 'PLS DO NOT LITTER' signs pasted on the gigantic pillars there, with a BIG black thrash bag tied 2 1 of the chair near the pillar as well. But as u know, it's not easy 2 implement rules in public places unless u r the authority, so we leave it 2 the Chinese saying 'automatic' fm all the kakis there loh. Worst 2 worst we pick up after them loh, which is the case most of the time. Unless we can implement this rule as posted previously - 'Offender will b sodomised !' loh

As 4 monetary contribution, it wld b on ad-hoc basis when quite a substantial amount is required 4 a project. Otherwise, things like nails & thrash bags r personal contribution by individual which r greatly appreciated.


Sori, forgot add this vid 2 defuse the tension. Enjoy :-

Extremely difficult design I would say; very unlikely you can find someone to spray to what you want here; even if have the price he'll ask will be very expensive.

The spray design you want is like those in US, which fetch a high price.

Hi Bro,
I always like to do spray painting car body more than assembling car kit, kekeke I have done quite a bit on my own cars as well as for my younger brother...

I almost wanted to volunteer myself to spray paint for you until I saw your requirement... wow, not easy... I think even if someone is willing to undertake the job for you, it will not be cheap...

Why dun you consider selecting a ready made body from Bitty Design? it may be easier and cheaper... the link is bittydesign.net

Body skin is a better option. It can be custom-made to your design, here's the link:
