Busy bee

It has been a hectic couple of months for me here in Brunei.I know it is no excuse for the lack of updates but I promise I haven't been sitting idly doing nothing.

I've rededicated myself to racing again in the 1/8 nitro buggy class and the electric touring class but both with a slightly different twist.

I am putting the term ReadytoRace to the test by using a Readyset (Ready to run) Kyosho MP9 Tki3 car. I will be driving it bone stock for an entire race season. I'm not sponsored so you can rest assure my opinions will be truthful. I've done a race with it so far and it has been performing flawlessly. You can see more of it in this video here.



Meanwhile, I am reviving my seven-year-old Yokomo BD7 to compete in the 13.5 turn series here beginning next year. I want to show that while manufacturers come out with new cars every year, you don't necessarily need to keep upgrading your car. I initially wanted to do the project with my BD5 but parts were becoming difficult to find so I opted for the BD7 instead.



I also made a video of the Brunei Buggy League that was held last month. I got inspired by the "Come race with us" series on Youtube and wanted to do something similar for Brunei races. Hopefully I will be able to do more of this in the near future. Do comment or like the videos if you enjoyed them or found any of them helpful.



Cheers.
