Series 3 of the Racecraft Infinity On-Road Challenge 2010-11 was held on December 26, 2010 at Racecraft Race Complex in Singapore. The race was postponed which was supposed to be two weeks earlier due to rain. The qualifying started off with Nicholas Lee setting off the fastest pace and remained fastest from round 1. P.Y.Tang unable to get used to the Orca Vritra and RX2 powerplant as the 5.5T turbo was just too powerful for the small size track. Tuning down the powerband and some changes to the spring setups, P.Y.Tang was able to cut laptimes down on round 3 but unfortunately he caught behind a backmarker in the mid straights causing valuable time loss. E.C.Wee took Q2 which he ran a consistent run in round 3.

1. Nicholas Lee - Tamiya - 21 laps 5:02.474
