Because people say that track is haunted. Almost every car run on that track will ended up something broken. Some also says if you only throttle 10% of the time, your controller battery will run out after playing for 6hrs straight. But I tried drifting there with PVC tires, very difficult but challenging. The surface could be better. But seriously people says it is a death track, whatever it means. But actually not bad for drifting.

I heard that the Yishun track has alot of sand and small pebbles...
Thats why many things are broken...
Even if you didn't crash, the sand and pebbles will destroy your gears...Thats why nobody ever bothered to play there...If playable, I would have played my Micro RS4 there liao...

Yes its open to public.. ya its true dat the track there are quite dirty, but for me if i wanna play i dun mind cleaning bah haha, or give bangala 5 dolllar ask them clean up the place la... As for nitro or ep i olso not very sure... but i saw a hobby site of SG posting their imge where they are playing EP car..
but sad that Yishun,Semb,Woodland cant find race track(correct me if i'm wrong), and also sad to say no hobby shop to see see around..dun tok abt sembawang shop dat Hobby Link.. disappointed when i went there.. now all RC heli alreadi.. i oni saw 3 package of EP..
last time so mani now u go there give u a feeling like they wanna close down ler..

gloves2ali sembawang hoppy place is not closing they shift place .sembawang shopping is going to renovate so they shifted to rivervale mall now. i think they are slowly clearing the stock to the other branch so now only left planes at sembawang. heard the hobby place auntie boss say they will try to shift back to sembawang after the renovation

looks of the track can be deceiving..i played thr b4 with my nitro..its a very tech course.got some humps and bumps due to the roots of trees..the track width itself is a bit narrow but!!
id be looking forward to drifters having a meet thr..not team based meet..but just normal meet up at the track..and hey..who knows they will clean up the place if the town RC see life at the track..get what i mean...

Any opinions, joiners or suggstions?

Hey, guys why not all do this, revisit the track, bit by bit we clean these this up we have a good track. I've been playing RC for 9yrs, downgrade from 1/8 Picco ans Serpent to TT01d, I have to say with PVC tires and concealed TT01 grears, that place works for me, I like the drifting on those narrow corners. It's like Yishuno Drift. That track still have the best constructed drivers stand on the island. But please don't use your Coppermix bodyshell there, a Protoform Mazda 6 v2.0 is less painful.

sounds like a good idea etino. Is there power at the track? Oh and is the surface bumpy? Would'nt mind making the trip all the way there if people are going to show up  |

hmmm, still waiting for my pay day, but confirm before chinese new year.. then abt the drift meet, i think north side should have quite a lot of newbies(i guess one...)
so those hardcore ones might feel turn off..
nevertheless, the more the merrier...
heehee, i'm still a r/c virgin..
