i see the general view is to relax this weekend... maybe it's not too bad an idea...

something happened to me so i definitely can't race this weekend... injured my right foot so i can hardly even stand properly, let along walk or carry heavy stuff....

looks like i'll be quarantined at home until my foot gets better...

Nobody racing? Guess its bad timing for me to start racing this week. Think I better cncentrate on school work.

I was back at the rcs track the other day. After 7 months of meditation my powers improved.

overtki11: Why not try marina south hobby bug track? That is a smooth surface, will not damage your chassis. The RC speedway track i prefer the layouts there, but the bumpy track eats up carbon fibre chassis like no tommorrow. I've lost 1 414m lower deck there, and ozone has lost like a SP12G3 lower deck too! Worn till the screw holes!

Jimmyd: You have not seen my new 300rsr setup yet! The new roll centre adjustments I made plus my new, version 4 setup theory will hopefully put a sweat drop on your forehead kekekek

sigh. i hope the next cck race will be back to carpet. i long for the times when ep entries can exceed 50 people at cck indoor races..............don't like to see the series just die like that.

i understand there is a 'link' involved in this sunday's race also. (incl allowing bl or something). sigh.

Hey you guys really not joining the 1/12 race?
I get to play it only once a month. Really hope you guys can join.

Going to test my new setup this sunday. Thanks to Alvin's tip. Alvin race leh, by the way how did you do for your malaysia race?

ozone ask your brother who plays 1/12 to play leh. Want to challenge him again(more like losing to him again).

hellangel have a good rest at home. I will be taking video of the rest for this sunday. Will post it to my website after the race.

Jimmyd long time no see. Heard you very good at 1/12, hope you can make it this weekend too if you are free. By the way this is Jerry if you can't remember I lend you my pinion for 1/10 CCK race last year.


Really hope you guys who can make it go for the race.

Hi, long time. Always lend lend pinion wat how can I not remember? Actually my skill now really rusty after months of non racing. (the meditation crap is just to psycho alvin & ozone)

So how many will be going for 1/12? will try and make it for this sunday. The batts looked tempting. So how to go rm??? Anyone??

Yo Alvin, tell us about your v.4 setup theory. Hey if you think you got good setup, come and prove it man. You havent see my setup for 10L2.5 it will make you shiver!!!

Overkill, I still prefer rcspeedway for racing 1/12 and other pan cars. The latest layout quite good and the bumps are less severe. About the track gobbling up chasis it only happens if you run too soft and too low. I have no problem at all. The ms track is smooth but the boards are very deadly. there are many place that can snag your car and the handling very inconsistant there making it easy to get accidents.
