THE postponement of the Drifting Challenge yesterday did not dampen the spirits of the remote car control enthusiasts, instead they took the time to hone their skills for the competition which will take place next Sunday, November 30, at the Hassanal Bolkiah National Stadium in Berakas.
The Drifting Challenge organised by Guan Hock Lee has been postponed due to some technical difficulties and will see more than 30 participants taking part in the eagerly awaited tournament.
Edwin Sim, who is in charge of the Remote Car Control at Guan Hock Lee, said that the tournament will be split into three categories namely Head-to-Head Race, Best Body Shell and Drift Battle.
The first category will require two competitors to compete to reach the fastest timing in one lap while the second category will look into the creative designs and style of their car shell.
The last category will observe the smoothness of the participant's drifting control of their cars in five minutes for each lap.
Sim added that the objective of the tournament is to promote the sports to the public and how it is a much cheaper form of sports compared to drifting a real car.
In an interview with one of the participants, Md Ira Fakhrul Rahim, 20, he said that he has been playing remote control cars since he was a kid. He learned the game three years ago and hopes to win the tournament next week.
Participation of the tournament is still opened and forms can be collected at the Guan Hock Lee shop at Jln Tungku. Members of the public are invited to attend the tournament next week. . (BPA1)
