Litemodz Design TQ and 1st at Racecraft Infinity On-Road Challenge Series 2010-11 Series 3 (December 26, 2010)



Leonard Sim recently TQ and finished 1st for Super Stock Class at the Racecraft Infinity On-Road Challenge Series 2010-11 Series 3 in Singapore. Leonard Sim used the new Litemodz Design CVS (Constant Verlocity Shaft) in his TOP Photon. According to Leonard, the CVS eliminates front tires chattering reducing front tire wear and increases cornering speed. He added that before, the front tires wear rate was higher than the rear, but after changing to CVS, the rear tires wear rate is faster now comapared to the front tires. The new CVS raises the standard of transmission bringing our scale cars into the 21st Century by utilizing the technology as used on pretty much all modern day full size cars. We will be seeing more great results from Litemodz in the upcoming races in 2011.

Congratulations to Leonard Sim and Litemodz Design in claiming the victory!

Xray-Orca claimed 2nd and 3rd at Racecraft Infinity On-Road Challenge Series 2010-11 Series 3


From left: E.C.Wee, Nicholas Lee, P.Y.Tang



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.

Top 10 A-Main Qualifying Standings (Modified Class):
1. Nicholas Lee - Tamiya - 21 laps 5:02.474
2. E.C.Wee - Xray, Orca - 21 laps 5:10.169
3. P.Y.Tang - Xray, Orca - 21 laps 5:12.445
4. Hasron - Yokomo - 20 laps 5:03.705
5. Kevin Wong - CEFX - 20 laps 5:04.990
6. Chee Lip Keong - Tamiya, H-Energy - 20 laps 5:07.629
7. Desmond Tan - Xray - 20 laps 5:10.701
8. James Ki - Xray - 20 laps 5:10.701
9. H.J.Quek - Xray - 20 laps 5:14.071
10. Paul Lok - Tamiya - 19 laps 5:02.140

Nicholas Lee took an easy win for Final A1 and A2, while P.Y.Tang now managing a faster pace was busy trying to pass E.C.Wee for 2nd position in all three finals. As E.C.Wee was very consistent on his laptimes, it was pretty tough for a pass by P.Y.Tang. After some close battling and swapping position, P.Y.Tang managed to finish ahead of E.C.Wee.

Top 3 A-Main Final Standings (Modified Class):
1. Nicholas Lee - Tamiya - 2pts
2. P.Y.Tang - Xray, Orca - 3pts
3. E.C.Wee - Xray, Orca - 5pts
