Heya Ben,

Welcome to Singapore! You can check out the thread on Turf City 1/8 Buggy race for a little more insight on the 1/8 Nitro buggy race scene here. There is a race going on there this coming Sunday, so if you are here this weekend, you can come down and check it out.

Most of us will be there, feel free to approach us to chat.

Cheerio!

Daniel

does anyone clear the doubles and triple on this track? the cars seem to single over them.

Was it turf city that held an international race in year passed?

Howdy ben73 mate, this guy top-heavy so cannot clear triple. Always the smiling, happy-go-lucky type, tat's y his EPs nowadays dun smoke anymore

Maybe u 1 2 check it out with this nice chap Jonathan Lane in ur Aussie forum below who had raced here often previously but now migrated there. Or since u're fm Sydney, there's another guy 'wyl03' oso migrated fm here active in RC racing there too.

any plans to get rig of the grass growing and get it back to the level it was for the international race, it looks like it has detoriated a little bit since then
