Thanks for the kind words!
I don't own any rc cars but just love photography/cinematography.
I'll be back for the 2WD or the finals.

Hi all NOOB racers,
As we go into Round 4 of the NOOB 2012 Singapore Open Buggy Series, the organizers have decided to make a slight amendment to the series scoring. Whereas previously announced that it would be a "highest-score-wins" system, this will now be amended to a "lowest-score-wins" system.
The change will not have major impact on racer standings to date and has been made as it is a fairer method of scoring for racers in the series.
Specifically:
~PREVIOUS SCORING SYSTEM~
Points will be awarded per class for each race attended and number of points up for grabs per week depends on total number of racers. Last finisher will be awarded 1 point, 2nd last will be awarded 2 points, etc.
Best 4 out of 6 results per class will count towards final series standings
Racers that miss a particular run will be awarded zero (0) points for that particular race
Final race standings will be based on points - i.e. highest total score first.
e.g. If 20 racers attend a race that night:
- A main 1st = 20 points
- A main 2nd = 19 points
- A main 10th = 11 points
- B main 1st =10 points
- B main 2nd = 9 points
- B main 10th = 1 point
~AMENDED SCORING SYSTEM~
Points will be awarded per class for each race attended and number of points up for grabs per week depends on total number of racers. First finisher will be awarded 1 point, 2nd will be awarded 2 points, etc. Racers who miss a race will be awarded the score of "n"+1 where "n" is the total number of races for that particular race.
e.g. if a racer misses a race where 30 racers attended, he will receive a score of 31 for that race.
Best 4 out of 6 results per class will count towards final series standings
Final race standings will be based on points - i.e. lowest total score first.
e.g. If 20 racers attend a race that night:
- A main 1st = 1 point
- A main 2nd = 2 points
- A main 10th = 10 points
- B main 1st =11 points
- B main 2nd = 12 points
- B main 10th = 20 points
This change takes place with immediate effect. Thank you.

Great turnout for NOOB 2WD Round 5 at RaceWorks!
A big thank you to all racers who raced yesterday at the very exciting NOOB 2WD Round 5 event. With a turnout of 39 racers, yesterday's event was the largest 1/10 offroad race in Singapore in the 3-year history of NOOB.
We saw many new faces along with familiar NOOB regulars on a hot Sunday afternoon - everyone vying for a place in one of the 4 mains. Congratulations to all who made the podium and a hearty "well done!" to all who tackled the unexpectedly loose conditions.
There was some feedback about received about marshaling assignments and we will definitely be looking into this - but we do appreciate everyone's understanding that this isn't an enviable task and we will do the best that we can. We will keep everyone updated.
Pics up later!
