I think race might be in Ikano power center instead on the 26th May cause i read Star newspapers today and i saw that they are having RC race there during 26th and 27th May

dun use motor oil.. unless u got an engine on it ....

for me i used 'Q-plus' or someting equal  nod.gif

do not soak with motor oil... need someting to protect the gear and provide lub..

anyway motor oil too thick and to much will slow your car...  nod.gif

ps yr car will be oily and can have alot dust (carpet) also carry extra weight
*
thats what i mean .. the oil i used was actually mean1t for the car engines .lol sweat.gif
just soak the gears in the oil for sometime . take it out, clean off excess oil then can use already .. well thats my method .lol

Hi Jonath,

I used to play A&Y cars before. Those aluminium plates are very light but can be out of shape easily once got bang on something. Unlike nowadays we have FRP plates so much better.

Anyway, I still love to play Tamiya. Especially those old setup, colorful plastic rollers, stablilizing pole with full of plastic rollers, hyper dash motor.

And I am also a Tamiya collector.

Please see the A&Y motor, I think you should seen this motor before.

those motors still being sold locally though..

as for the aluminium plates , i used one time , then i never used already ... all started bending into funy funy shapes .lol
