As always, my passion with my rc truck and new found hobby, photography, must come into one. So here is a couple only just for this blog.

Need double clicks to get the bigger picture. Nice or not?

It is that time of month, the urge to disturb my radio control crawler truck! AGAIN!!

As you can see, working on a clean table which originally *still* for dinner time usage, it is definitely a NO-NO for my wife. Haha. I should have something underneath that can at least covered the table from all the truck’s dirt. Furthermore to that, you need something to capture the small screws if they’re dropped accidentally. Anything that could prevent from all the scratches, is a YES-YES to my wife.

If you are new here, you must have no idea that I do love my RC (Radio Control) car and truck, buggy and truggy. I play and I race them competitively in the local race and international events. Oh yes, I enjoy driving them a lot and it is much harder than what you thought about it.

It is NOT A TOY! Costing me around RM2,000 average per vehicle, you think it is a toy or not? Haha. Well, it is okay to say, they are the Big Boy’s Toys! Damn expensive but truly better experience than go fishing. Hehe.

Do you know what it means? RC Fasting?

Well, I am on my 3rd week of fasting from touching my radio control crawler, my rc truck to specific. If you know me well, it is kind of torture you know. I can probably fasting from eating food, but NOT MY RC. This is much tougher than anyone can imagine. Just imagine you are forbidden from touching or doing the things you love most. Lets say you love music and your guitar is the closest thing to you other than your girlfriend – for example. Imagine you can only see but no touch and it is just lying there on the floor or hang on the wall. I believe it is kind of frustrating right.

Well, for me.. RC fasting is the worst feeling ever. Yes so far I can live without it but damn, i feel so bored. To be honest, if you are smoker, you know the feeling of not having a stick after the meal or early in the morning. Damn so painful!!!

I am just counting the day now. I promised, at least, to survive without it for a month. So yes, I will be reunited with it soon. I just have to be patient and trying thinking about other things. Peace

There you go .. for your eyes only, my obsession with Radio Control Trucks!

two precious trucks!

This is Radio Control Rock Crawler (the green color) and the faster Radio Control Nitro Powered Monster Racing Truck.

Yeah, Mission accomplished! I did it. It’s about my Brunei trip of course

It was almost a 9 hours onroad trip to Brunei (and back to KK too – gosh!) and I am still can feel the feeling inside the van. Anyway, it was my first time so was very excited to be there. Since this trip is specifically for rock crawling competition, I did not really pay attention to the whole scenery there. It was raining anyway. But I tell you this, not so many of those metal buildings around here but good enough for luxury living. I never expected it anyway, so yeah, good enough.

Do not let the view fools you, most people living here are very rich people. At least double whatever you are earning back in Malaysia. Friendly people, especially the host and organizer of our competition. We stayed at Jubilee Hotel by the way, in the executive suite!!! Best!!

Anyway, about my radio controlled rock crawling hobby, well I achieved my target, to be at least top three in the final result. So I got Second Place in the 1.9 Scale class category and believe it or not, I am still not, I was awarded the runner-up too in the “beautiful truck” competition. Not bad at all, you know!!!

Pictures you asked?? Not yet. Will do later ok. I promised

Did I mentioned here that I’ll be going to Brunei this weekend for my RC crawling competition? I didn’t??? I must be very busy with my crawler that it slipped my mind to announce it here, hahahaaha.

By this time, I will be in Brunei or maybe on the way to Brunei and guys, please wish me luck. I hope to bring back something as my son Josh says ” Papa bring back the big trophy ok” I guess he meant the 1st prize right? Hearing him says that makes me more excited and look forward to this competition.

Ok I’m ready to crawl and hopefully everything goes well. Now, where’s my julbo sunglasses I need it to shed my eyes from the sun

Wish me luck guys!!!

I seldom talk about my passion with RC in this blog because it simply not the right place to talk about it. I should talk about it at Borneo RC Crawlers website. On the other hand, this is my paid website, so why not! Haha.
