Off-season Raceworks On-Road Bash Club Race at Raceworks Hobbies was still attracting a good number of Spec Class (Break-Out) 17.5T and Super Stock 13.5T entries, including Nicholas Lee (Tamiya World Champion 2011), P.Y.Tang (Tamiya Asia Champion GT 2012) and Leonard Sim (Tamiya Asia Champion M-Chassis 2012).
Raceworks Hobbies has been trying to promote the hobby and attract new racers, which this race, they introduced a "Break-Out" Spec Class 17.5T, which all racers had to complete their laps at least 21 sec or above. Most racers adopted the "rule" positively, as this is a move that they are trying to attract more racers into racing, and not entirely depending on how current are your electronics/cars or how expensive your equipments are.
The Spec Class 17.5T saw the faster racers adjusting their EPAs to actually slow down the car to match the laptimes, which gave a good advantages to the newer racers. Tony Neo came in first winning the class after a long break from RC.
