Tamiya Asia Cup Singapore Qualifying Round 4 was held at the Big Splash Playground at East Coast Park Singapore. Crowd gathered around the temporary race track for a 2-day event with a 3-hour endurance race held on the Saturday weekend and, the TAC qualifying on Sunday. Traction level was very low as the cement track surface posed a lot of issue to many drivers.
In the qualifying rounds of 4WD GT, P.Y.Tang set the pace with the only 21 laps when the morning traction was still better, held the TQ position. Chee Lip Keong managed to improve his laptimes into the qualifying rounds after changing to a more manageable power gear ratio took 2nd position from the pole. E.C.Wee who sufferred from understeer in his TB03 could not improve allowing William AJ to qualify 3rd.
