Ken Ng takes H-Energy to 1st Runner-Up at JBRCC Round 2 (April 17, 2011)

Reported by Ken Ng, he took 1st Runner-Up in EP Open Class at the JBRCC Round 2 in Segamat Putra Raceway, finishing in podium for H-Energy and Xray. Ken Ng described the track to be rather bumpy in some sections, which could throw the car off-balance. He tried to tackled the issue only on the race day, changing minor setups from what he used at TITC 2011. Despite having a long break after TITC 2011, it was a respectable result from Ken Ng.

Congratulations to Ken Ng, Xray and H-Energy!

Ken Ng used the H-Energy 6000 60C 7.4V High Performance LiPo is his Xray T3'2011 and H-Energy 1400 6.6V LiFe in his Futaba 4PK Transmitter.

Orca BL Championships 2011 Round 1 (April 17, 2011)

1st round of ORCA BL Championship 2011 was held at Planet Speedway in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia on April 17, 2011. After a successful event in 2010, Team Orca Asia and Hobby Haven Malaysia continued to organize the ORCA BL Championship which this year featuring 2 classes, Open Class (Turbo-Timing) and Stock Class (Zero-Timing. The event is targeted to promote and showcase Orca products. To promote the event and R/C hobby, the event kept the entry fee low to allow more drivers to enter the event.
Opened to any brand of 17.5T Brushless Motor in the Open Class, and a handout Orca RX2 17.5T Professional Brushless Motor in the Stock Class with spec ESC (no turbo-timing), kept cost low for most drivers, allowing a more stress-free and fun racing!

This is what Team Orca Asia had to say after the event, "ORCA Asia would like to say a big thank you to all racers that participated and to those that took time to come over to SS19 to watch our first race out of the five planned for year 2011.
As mentioned by Eric (Hobby Haven), this being the first race of 2011 and with some more knowledge gained from last year, we have made a couple of changes to this year and it has already prove to be a very very good race. The response, thanks to the collaboration with hobby shops around, it has been a very good first round, with some new faces and some old timers who came back out to enter into the race, making it a successful event. The most significant difference is the OPEN(Turbo Timing) class running 17.5T motors, while the STOCK(Zero Timing) class has allowed more brands of ESC into the race, with controlled motor being handed out. For the STOCK class, it is a step up from the last year's stock/novice class, where the ORCA Q 6X ESC was given out along with the RX-2 17.5T, like the open class of 2010. The OPEN class, is a new thing for ORCA BL, as well as the Malaysian racing scene, the only other race that have this category being the MNC. The response of this class is not as much as expected but with the support of some veteran racers, it was a very very exciting race for all to watch and drive alike. In the end, its the fabulous weather and great atmosphere that made the first race of 2011 a great success."

In the Super Stock, last round winner Darryl Thong took an impressive TQ in his Orca-powered Tamiya TT01 over some of the veteran competition. Under the support of 2009/2010 4WD GT class Singapore Champion P.Y.Tang, Darryl Thong was determined to be able to qualify for the Super Stock Class to the Tamiya Asia Cup Finals 2011, which he just missed the final spot in 2010. In pole position, the young Darryl Thong was under a lot of pressure by more experienced driver Kevin Wong and Shawn Chow following closely behind. Using his racing experience, Final A1 and A2 won by Kevin Wong after close calls and multiple position changes with Darryl Thong, who had to settle for 2nd overall. Jieming with a win in the Final A3 took the final spot in podium pushing Shawn Chow to 4th overall.

P.Y.Tang Xray T3'11 and Orca VTC Pro-Spec MK2 Setup Sheet @ Racecraft Infinity On-Road Challenge

P.Y.Tang doubles for Xray-Orca at Racecraft Infinity On-Road Challenge (April 3, 2011)

First local electric open race of the 2011 season at Racecraft Infinity was held on April 3, 2011. This year, 2 main classes are to be competed in Open Modified Class and Stock 17.5T Class, and the first round saw P.Y.Tang from Team Xray Singapore and Team Orca dominated both classes. As a new rule and new challenges to the drivers, the runtime for the Open Modified Class is 6 minutes while the Stock 17.5T Class is 8 minutes. Team Power controlled tires are chosen this season in the Open Modified Class while Ride 36 controlled tires are used in the Stock 17.5T Class.

In the qualifying rounds of Open Modified Class, P.Y.Tang and E.C.Wee set the early pace, the only two drivers clocking under 13.0s. E.C.Wee topped Q1. But with a fresh set of rubber and a change in the motor changing to a 13.0mm rotor, P.Y.Tang ran the only 28 lappers in Q2 and took the TQ spot. E.C.Wee qualified 2nd while Leonard Sim took 3rd.

Top 8 Qualifying Standings (A-Main Open Modified)
Driver - Car - Esc - Motor - Battery - Laptimes - Fastest Laptime
1. P.Y.Tang - Xray T3'11 - Orca Vritra - Orca QX1 - Orca Infinite - 28 laps 6:10.926 - 12.835s
2. E.C.Wee - Xray T3 Exotek - Orca Vritra - Orca RX2 - Orca Infinite - 27 laps 6:02.679 - 12.796s
3. Leonard Sim - Xray T3'11 - Tekin RS - Tekin - 27 laps 6:11.088 - 13.134s
4. Chee Lip Keong - Tamiya TRF417 - LRP - LRP - H-Energy - 27 laps 6:13.313 - 13.308s
5. Hasron - Yokomo BD5 - Orca Vritra - Orca RX2 - LRP - 26 laps 6:00.977 - 13.249s
6. Kevin Wong - Tamiya TRF417 - Tekin - 26 laps 6:06:874 - 13.53s

8. Ali G - Hotbodies TCX - Hobbywing - Dualsky - 25 laps 6:03.162 - 13.726s

While in the qualifying rounds of the Stock 17.5T, the competition was much closer. Electronics performance would be one of the major source of power to the stock 17.5T motor. As it was an 8-minute run, ESC settings were also a major concern to keep the temperature low in the hot and sunny tropical weather. Kevin Wong running his Tekin powered Tamiya set the early pace with a 34 laps 8 flat timing in Q1. P.Y.Tang then quickly identified the potential of higher top end as his RX2 17.5T was merely running at 65 degC in Q1, as so increasing the turbo timing on his Orca Vritra VTC Pro-Spec MK2 ESC for Q2 while keeping all other settings the same. In Q2, P.Y.Tang managed to top the group with the first 35 lappers 8:08.847. As the RX2 17.5T motor was still running at a mere 70degC in Q2, P.Y.Tang decided to increase the turbo timing to the maximum in Q3, improving by almost 4 seconds and took the TQ honor in the Stock 17.5T Class. Kevin Wong unable to improve qualified 2nd while, Bomb running the Orca for the first time, qualified 3rd.

8. Philip Soh - TOP Photon - Tekin - 32 laps 8:01.784 - 14.270

In the final A1 of Open Modified Class, it was a more excited final than usual when P.Y.Tang made an early mistake after clipping the curb after the long straight into the right sweeper, dropping him down to 4th, allowing E.C.Wee took take the lead followed by Chee Lip Keong and Hasron. Into the halfway point, P.Y.Tang made another mistake at the same area trying to hard to close up with the first 3 leader. Allowing E.C.Wee to increase his lead, P.Y.Tang could only caught up to 2nd at the final minute. E.C.Wee kept his consistency and won Final A1. In the Final A2 and A3, P.Y.Tang had easier runs, pulling away from the group clocking clocking sub 13.0s consistently. E.C.Wee had to settle with 2nd overall, while Chee Lip Keong took 3rd.

Bowie Ginting and Orca claims Indonesian National Championship Round 2 (March 20, 2011)

Bowie Ginting (Second from left)

The 2nd round of 1/10 EP Indonesian National Championship was held in Sunter International Speedway, which received new asphalt last week. 50 drivers attended this race which was divided into 2 classes, Stock 11.5 class and FD class. The weather was hot and we were sure it could be like that until the end of the race. In Stock qualifying, it was Bowie Ginting who took his Xray T3′11 to the TQ spot followed by Teddy Syach who switched to Tamiya after one year using Hot Bodies, 5 seconds behind Bowie. Dimas Ardian (Hot Bodies), Ronald kasengkang (Tamiya), and Suwardi Suliandy (Xray) completed the top 5 positions. Ade took the TQ spot in the FD class with his TOP Sabre followed by Faiza (TOP) and senior driver, Eka P, who drove his Teddy Syach’ built FD chassis.

In A-Final leg 1, it was Bowie who held his lead, running away from Teddy Syach building up a 6 second lead until Syach got his car out of shape. Unfortunately for Chandra Yosef he took 3rd place from 10th place on the first lap, but his transponder wasn’t working. It was a close run between Ronald, Dimas and Andhyka fighting for 3rd place. Unfortunately, Dimas had a problem with his Hot Bodies TCX and allowed Andhyka and Ronald to get away. At the end of the run, Bowie took the first place with 28 laps @ 8.08 followed by Teddy Syach with 27 laps @ 8.01 and Andhyka with 27 laps @ 8.11. In the FD class, Ade took the win followed by Faiza.

JBRCC held their first round GP and EP race at UTM Track on March 20, 2011. This will be the first round of many that will be held across the Johor state of Malaysia. The newly resurfaced UTM track have much better traction than before and made tire wear lesser.

With this change, P.Y.Tang posed better laptimes and also the fastest laptimes in the finals. Nicholas Lee started from pole was immediately followed closely by P.Y.Tang, both pulling away from the rest, but unfortunately Nicholas Lee suffered from techincal issues in Final A1 and A3 dropping him off from the podium. P.Y.Tang said that his Xray T3'11 was so much easier to drive and more consistent after changing to the OrcaQ QX1 11.5T and he used the same turbo boost settings that he previously used in TITC 2011, winning the first two finals to take the overall win. Chee Lip Keong taking advantage from Nicholas Lee technical issues, finished 2nd overall, which he took 2nd in Final A1 and 2nd in Final A3. Jonest Wong completed the podium spot in 3rd.

Orca TQ and win for 4WD GT and Super Stock at the Tamiya Asia Cup Singapore Qualifying 2011 Round 1 (March 13, 2011)

Long awaited the 14th Tamiya Asia Cup Singapore Championship 2011 held at Racecraft Race Complex after a long break since the Tamiya Asia Cup Finals Manila in September 2010. Adding a new class this year is the FWD Class, along with 4WD GT, Super Stock, Mini and F1. Track layout was fairly technical in the in-field with tight chicanes. Running sensorless brushless system for all classes this year, there are some changes in strategies to produce a faster and reliable car.





In the 4WD GT class, P.Y.Tang of Team Orca powered his Tamiya TA05 V2 to top the group taking TQ spot and the extra points for best qualifying lap at 12.747s. Chee Lip Keong H-Energy 6000 60C powered Tamiya TA05 V2 who did not really get a clean run qualified 2nd and first-timer E.C.Wee qualified 3rd in his Orca powered Tamiya TB03 although having some troubles with the drivetrain.

In the 4WD GT finals, P.Y.Tang took 1st for all 3 finals was lucky to avoid some traffic, while Chee Lip Keong an E.C.Wee battled out for the 2nd position.

In the Super Stock class, it was also Orca powered TT01 that took the TQ and win. Shawn Chow took the early TQ spot but unfortunately he suffered from poor traction due to incorrect tire choice in the finals and dropped him out of the podium spot. Out of surprise this year is 15-year old Darryl Thong who showed that he could compete for the top spot to qualify for the TAC Finals, qualified 2nd with additional 3 points for best lap, and also took the overall win in his Orca-powered TT01. Stanley Hong took 2nd overall starting from 4th, and Kevin Wong finished 3rd.
