TAMIYA MINI 4wd IS BACK !!!- See for Race Schedules

[f3a_champ]

agree..watching you guys(old & young) from the sidelines have fun is FUN enough..but i cant help think about the new faces i see at some of the races and feel their frustration, admiration and longing of achieving, winning and beating the crap out of the "oldies/masters..i mean watching and meeting "the masters" and a whole lot of you guys win for the very first time is a thrill to a newbie even inspiring though i think it gets a little bit discouraging as race after race one joins to see the same people win..layo palang pagka kita nmo ni certain 'someone' with his tiger cars maka ingon naka na.. yataps! wa ko chance ani ni idol...OR..ang imo reaction pagka kita nmo sa perteng daghana na neon cars ni certain 'someone'..oh the horror! lol! *peace* mga idol..heheheh!
i have come to enjoy watching the races and hear stories of hubby when he was still a kid w/ his first tamiya(and not knowing anything at all basta mo dagan lng..lol) and rediscovering it now, of seeing father/daughter/son teams and gf & bf teams..so i would hate this hobby & passion fade just because there are few new bloods/newbies who are not afraid of being eaten by the great masters...
Soooo if you guys & gals wouldnt mind a suggestion or two..i'd like to share an idea or two..IDEA 1: how about categorizing the races into two/three categories..category a: newbies only; category b: open for all..etc..you guys decide on the guidelines on how to categorize players based on how many races/months/years he/she has played maybe? and when to let them 'graduate' to another level..IDEA 2: a workshop/quick lesson on whats what for the all the newbies out there dying to join but not knowing where to start or what to buy before a race..hehehe..it a needs a lot of work i agree but i know a lot of you guys are willing to spare a minute or two before any race to teach a newbie on what to do/ not to do(seen this happen alot of time) if he asks for help (but what about the ones who are a bit shy?lol)..if ever this will happen im pretty sure we all will be seeing a lot of new faces joining us in future races..more people=more fun=tamiya is here to stay for a looong time, right? hehehehe.. hope you lot wouldn't find my suggestion offensive or take it the wrong way..annnd i have to stop blabbing coz hubby says im gonna scare you guys or hunt me down the next race for being 'baga' coz im telling u guys how to do/run your race....cant help it, lol! *peace* thanks for reading..^_^

I totally agree about teaching newbies. It would save them time and money in the long run. If somebody would organize a workshop, I would be glad to help out. But the thing is, newbie sad ko sa tech. I usually race open speedtech only. So I can help with the MS chassis but not much with the other kinds of chassis.

duol lang mo sa mga organizers sa parkmall. usually naka pink tshirts na sila. ask for their advice on setups and stuff.

Waaaaaaaaa, batia nanirado namang mini 4wd shop/racetrack diri cordova wa nami kadaganan da. hmph

It seems that mini 4wd is getting more and more competitive. Mangapil man gud ang mga tiguwang ug duwa ang uban bata di nalang malingaw kay sigi kapilde.

" Mini 4wd racing requires precise tuning and top notch hop up parts to win, but in the end, this is a hobby and should be enjoyed"

Enjoyment made mini4wd successful in the past, fierce competition made it die in the end. . .

naa man say seniors category bay....mao na lgn sad baya ni lingaw nila kay di na kadagan....hehehehe


well, di ko hing-ana ka maayo. kinahan lan jud sad ko uga mga experts advice. just like a while ago, i did not listen to juancho's advice my car went off the track for waiting na unta. wew!!!.when i started the hobby and concentrated to tech, jayburn gave me few tricks how to build the car. then apil2x ko race, started to ask people unsa kulang sa ako car.ngano di kadaog?ing-nan dayon ko nila imong tires brad grabeh ka taas. came from atty.seno at that time.then nag start ko ug observe. ok nmn ako tire diameter ngano layat man japon.then i met juancho in ayala.he then explained to me how the brakes works and how to properly set it up. then sige nako race.car is still only until semi final.then finally tgetz shared the secrets in battery voltage= to speed. then finally the 1st ever televised race i won!! champion na jud!!! then race after ninggawas na ang magic brakes. wa na dayon ko kadaog till roy gave me a set of magic brakes. till now wala pako ka sabot sa tono but roy, brian and moris keeps on sharing their knowledge. and.... for now, kutub lng sa semis but i know maako ra sad ning championship. learning from my mistakes and advice from the said experts..

my point is. duol lng sa mga tawo. they wont hesitate to give you advice. the said masters they are humble enough to share their trades.
