Xray T3 first trial by P.Y.Tang at RCI

P.Y.Tang took a test at his new Xray T3 at Racecraft Infinity this past weekend. It was freshly build and right out from the box, P.Y. stated that the Xray T3 is very easy to drive and yet very aggressive which suits his driving style. The build quality is very good and fitting of parts are very easy and precise. Factory-assembled differential and front solid-axle made the build easier. With the stock setup, P.Y. managed to clock a fastest lap of 16.0sec at RCI. He did not change much setting on his Xray T3 except that he changed the stock 48-pitch to a 114T 64-pitch spur gear which he prefers the smoother feel. More testing will be done to fine tweak the settings of the T3 and the new electronics and battery from ORCA at RCI this week to prepare for the upcoming race in Malaysia.

Smokem Racing 416LP Chassis and 416 Steering Brace available now @ Quantum!

Smokem 416LP Chassis and 416 Steering Brace is now available @ Quantum!

Smokem Racing has developed a LiPo-specific chassis for the TRF416-series touring cars. By flipping the drive belts, the LiPo is offset further from the chassis centerline. While on the other side, the original servo mounts are flipped to move the servo closer to the centerline. The receiver and ESC can also be shifted further towards the centerline. The chassis retains the same longitudinal battery position as the 416 and 416X. At the same time, two lateral battery positions are available. The result is a balanced chassis with no additional weights required.





A common tuning trick on the TRF416-series chassis is to remove the factory aluminum steering bridge. Doing this increases flex in the front end which can give more steering. But in certain conditions, this can also make the steering too sensitive and decrease stability. Smokem Racing steering brace for 416-series is available.

ZTW and H-Energy tops 4WD GT Class at Tamiya Asia Cup Qualifying Singapore 2010 Round 4 (June 30, 2010)

Round 4 of the Tamiya Asia Cup Qualifying Singapore 2010 was held at Racecraft Infinity at the Bottle Tree Park. Four main classes of Super Stock, Mini, F1 and 4WD GT attracted over 50 entries in total.

In the qualifying rounds of 4WD GT Class, P.Y.Tang tops the group with the only 19 laps of the day at 5:15.276 with the fastest laptime of 16.188s, followed by Alvin Koh 18 laps 5:02.002 and Chee Lip Keong 18 laps 5:04.651.

In the 4WD GT A-Main Finals, P.Y.Tang outpaced the rest by winning all 3 finals, and setting another fastest laptime of 15.967s after some setup changes to make the car more aggressive. The 2nd overall position was still opened until the decisive Final A3 between Chee Lip Keong and Alvin Koh, which showed Chee Lip Keong's TA05R is much more powerful out of the corners and pressuring Alvin Koh right from the start of Final A3. Alvin Koh was able to stay calm closing every driving line not allowing Chee Lip Keong to pass, to finish 2nd overall.

4WD GT A-Main

1st P.Y.Tang (ZTW, H-Energy)
2nd Alvin Koh
3rd Chee Lip Keong (ZTW, H-Energy)

P.Y.Tang and Chee Lip Keong TA05R is powered by ZTW 60A ESC Version 2.0 and H-Energy 5000Mah 7.4V LiPo. Both drivers are very happy with the performance of the high punch of the ZTW ESC and the consistent power that the H-Energy LiPo delivers. ZTW high punch characteristics allows the stock motor to reach its top speed faster, and both P.Y. and CLK used profile 1 out of 4 for the Initial Acceleration setting.

Xray and P.Y.Tang teams up!

Xray and Hobby Link Singapore have annouced to team up with P.Y.Tang to run their Xray T3 1/10th Electric Touring Car. P.Y. will race the car at all open races around the region and internationally starting in July 2010. P.Y. is looking forward for the next race with his Xray T3 along with the Orca Vritra ESC TC Pro-Spec and Orca Infinite LiPo. He extended that although he will be driving an Xray, he is committed and hope to try his best to help and support all RC drivers including sharing setup tips or car setup help in order to boost up the RC community!

Ken Ng and H-Energy wins again at Niko Cup 1/10 EP Touring Car (June 13, 2010)

Recently signed H-Energy driver Ken Ng took another win in the Modified Open class at the Niko Cup 1/10 EP Touring Car held in Senai, Malaysia on June 13, 2010. The huge and flowy gas-powered car race track is one of the high speed track in the southern side of Malaysia. In the qualifying rounds, Ken Ng had some differential problems in his Xray T3, but qualified in the second position. Jonest Wong running a Tamiya grabbed the TQ spot. In the A-Main Finals, Ken Ng buckled up by securing the title winning Final A1 and Final A2. Final A3 was cancelled due to heavy rain. This is Ken Ng second consecutive win after switching to the H-Energy 5500Mah 50C 7.4V High Performance LiPo.

P.Y.Tang and Orca TQ and win at RCMC 1/10 EP Singapore Open Series 1 (June 13, 2010)

RCMC held their long anticipated 1/10 EP Singapore Open Series 1 at the PA Track at East Coast Park in Singapore on June 13, 2010. The track is normally used by 1/10 gas-powered touring cars. Therefore, the track is very high-speed and challenging. The corner markers were very challenging as slight touch would cause your car to roll and would even send your lanuching, as many drivers were having trouble manoeuvering these corners. The day started out hot and sunny, with 2 classes to compete in the Modified Open and Super Stock Touring class.

In the Modified Open qualifying heats, P.Y.Tang's Tamiya TRF416X was in control putting in clean and consistent runs, which he secured TQ position at 19 laps 5:08, one of the only 5 cars that managed 19 lappers. The qualifying position was followed by Joe Hwee, Barry Ng, Chee Lip Keong (H-Energy) and Allister Lim. In the A-Main Final 1, P.Y. on the pole easily powers out from the start of the tone. Joe Hwee was following closely but made a slight mistake after a few laps and P.Y.Tang outpaced the rest and cruised back to finish 1st. The Modifed Open A-Main Final 2 and 3 was cancelled due to heavy rain, and the final result was based from the Final 1. This is the second race that P.Y.Tang uses the new Orca RC products and he stated that he is very happy with the performance and high power the product delivers by the Orca Infinite 5500Mah 50C 7.4V LiPo. P.Y. would continue to choose Orca RC products to be his equipments for the Modified Open class.

Quantum Mini-Z Cup 2010 Round 4 @ Toa Payoh West Community Club (June 6, 2010)

The Round 4 of Quantum Mini-Z Cup 2010 was held for the second time in the Toa Payoh West Community Club on June 6th, 2010. This race is by far the most registered entries in a total of 39 entries with 3 classes to compete in 2WD Stock, 2WD Mod and F1 Open. This race was sponsored by Quantum Racing Hobby and Toa Payoh West Community Club. It was a rainy Sunday, but luckily Mini-Z happens only in indoor!



During the event, a small side track was setup to attract newcomers into the hobby of Mini-Z and the response was fairly good with many parents supporting their kids into the fun and games of Mini-Z racing.



In the 2WD Stock class, Allister Lim cruised to victory in his MR03 to TQ and overall win.



In the 2WD Modified Class, it was Allister Lim again to take 1st after battling 3 finals with TQ position Jon Han.



In the gruelling 10-minutes Final of F1 open, Azmi (TQ) went on to take the win which was the fastest F1 on the track lapping everyone else.

Congratulations to all drivers and many thanks to all the drivers who participated the race. Hope to see you all again in Round 5 of Quantum Mini-Z Cup 2010 in the month of July. Stay tuned!
