Perak Auto Radio Control Racing Association (PARCRA)

[Pak Ya]

[On behalf of PARCRA and others in RC Perak any kind help is appreciated.]

By the way,  if I am not born in Perak can become a member to PARCRA?  I was born outside of Perak.  Stayed only in Perak.  Thanks

I am impressed you know a lot about me but I do not know anything about you. I thought I knew all RC people in Ipoh but I was wrong. Or maybe we have udang bawah batu here. Lets not air My problem or RCCC's problem here. Let the exterior outlook remains as it is, a happy and very determine Pak Ya with RCCC a well supported RC club.

We are here talking about Perak RC delima. If you are an influential person with JBS why not do it for Perak RC and help to reduce my heartache in quenching the needs for a track to play. Here I am saying I will do this and that, whilst we have an experienced person who just need to only ask for it.

On behalf of PARCRA and others in RC Perak any kind help is appreciated.

As for the criteria to be a member as earlier mentioned, anyone with current address in Perak is eligible to be a member as well as for those Perak born (IC with 08).

 Although I can get access or "kebenaran" to use the JBS in official letter issued by them anytime I like, is seems unfair to the other racer.  That is why I choose not to use the "power" to use the JBS track for the time being.  

 

I suggest you take the lead to talk with JBS on the matter. Rasanya ada salah faham. Kalau bincang baik-baik mungkin boleh "lembutkan kerak nasi". Since you can get access why not ? AFter this will be khidmat masyarakat kpd RC lovers.

HAVE YOU BECOME MEMBERS OF PARCRA? IF YOU ARE INTERESTED, EMAIL ME ... NOW!

Hmm., it seems that you misunderstood what I meant by GP and EP leader.  What I am tyring to say is that the GP should have one prominent person (macam ketua) for their group who can deal with any problems arises.  You will still be the president of PARCRA.  It just that he/she will represent their group to communicate to you!  It is not a divison that separate EP & GP.  There is not need to change the name of the club.  It is like a supervisor who reports to his manager!  It is not my intention to separate the EP and GP, but for me it is better for someone who involved in GP to be their "wakil" rather than the EP who must handle where as we all know EP & GP is not the same mode of engine used!  EP use motor whereas GP use nitro engine.  The GP guys knows well in GP rather than EP.  It just to make thing simple.  Thats all.

And as for the RCCC, I know that.  We all know that.  I also know that the RCCC is under the Carsem branch sport who is under the the Hong Leong Group.  The GM is Mr Ian and the MD is Mr David C.  No need to explain to me the entity cause I know from A - Z of the company profile.  Just that I was wondering why after all this years representing the company or using the company name in the indirectly advertisement, the company still can't allocate some sort of fund beside the free usage of the company van?  If the company can only afford (I don't think so) to support in that way, I don't think the company ever appreciate you for all the hardwork you have done to "mengenalkan" the company during all the race.  If transportation is a problem, some of the RC own a van and that will be no problem for transportation!  It is a fact cause everywhere you go with the RCCC members, especially outside Ipoh,  a lot of people who watched the race will ask what is RCCC?  Oh.., a semiconductor company in Ipoh!  Ada kerja kosong tak? Gaji macam mana and all this questions will popped out from their mouth.  Isn't that free adverstisement for "lending" the company van?  It is a fact...no offend here!

LHS?  You are right about that!  I think their problem is that they don't know how to contribute.  Have you asked about that?  If I am not mistaken David Wong have gone all the trouble to get someone to sponsore the trophy in one of the race organised at JBS!  It is a pewter based trophy instead the normal plastic by the RCCC.  He even sponsored some of the RC driver if you don't know about it!   I don't get anything by telling you this but I think others LHS should know about it and "ikut contoh".

Oh Yes,  you are right about the leadership qualities.  Leader is the one who make things happen and not by just saying that.  That is the main thing why I respected you as a leader.  In fact friendly speaking, it is you who should be the manager in your dept instead of "him".  We all loves in this sport although we have to dealt with many "cabaran" to fulfill our urge and desire.  The recently obstacle by the JBS really, really hits us.  No access to use the JBS track is like trying to kill this hobby.  I don't think their plan will work because I have been in this hobby for the past 8 years and the hobby still expand and influenced the young generations.  No access to the JBS track doesn't means that we can't play elsewhere.....ayamas or TKS or whatever.  Setiawan is only 1 hour drive also.  Although I can get access or "kebenaran" to use the JBS in official letter issued by them anytime I like, is seems unfair to the other racer.  That is why I choose not to use the "power" to use the JBS track for the time being.  

By the way,  if I am not born in Perak can become a member to PARCRA?  I was born outside of Perak.  Stayed only in Perak.  Thanks

i think that land belong to IGB corporation, but if the piece of land belong to gov, they won't  approve for track building, coz that area have commercial value, ...
by the way.. how big actually the area that is needed to build the track..?
anyone can answer this..

I agree with Cakrabuana on the value of the land that we CAN ask from DBI. One of the reason DBI suggested Gunung Lang is 'cos itwas built for recreational.

Taman DR is out of the question 'cos there's no more space for anything else (except maybe offroad, which is temporary in nature).

PARCRA is planning to find a space enough to accomodate both onroad & offroad but it will very much depend on the availability. If it's available, first up will be the onroad track, then after a few months or fund permits, an offroad track will be build.

Please keep in mind that it's not only track that we need to find space for, there's the utilities like stands, paddock, toilets, parking space, easy access etc. Easy access to the racers AND also the spectators. Another 'would-be nice' addition is a stand for the spectators. Not too grand, just a 4-5 tiers 'tangga kambing' will be great!

But don't expect power points for everybody in the paddock. Nowadays, you can see 5-6 gensets at the back of the paddock at almost every EP races.

PS: What about Jelapang area? There's ample empty land near the underpass below the PLUS Jelapang toll. The one going towards Chemur (new road). Access is very good (4 lanes), well lit, quite near to shops etc.

I was wondering whether the area next to Jaya Jusco along the main road is government land?Maybe we can use that.

Though i'll be grateful for ANY permanent track, I think many of us will want it to be as near to town as possible.....

Aik tempat macam tu pon ada politik..? isk²
tp kalo nak bukak trek kat situ pon bukannya amik tempat besor benor..
isk entah ler semua mende kat ipoh kena ada pengaruh politik baru boleh dpt...
tp mana tau...bole cuba kan...buat layout proposal, cuma amik bahagian tanah kat ujung dekat ngan skolah teknik tu...dulu pon situ ada trek BMX.
kalo tak dpt jugak nampaknya kena laa buat trek kat luar ipoh sikit...tambun ker, chemor ker
 

Kalau anda orang Ipoh cuba tinjau tempat2 yang anda cadangkan. Sebelah hujung POLO sebelah sekolah Teknik tu kawasan nya berbukit dan tak cukup untuk buat trak kerana ada tandas awam dan tempat permainan kanak2.

Saya memberi maklum balas kerana saya tak mahu cadangan2 anda semua ini seperti tidak saya pedulikan.

Terima kasih saya ucapkan diatas suggestion anda dan saya terus memerlukan cadangan2 ini. Dan saya akan memberi feed back/komen saya.

Yes of course the cost is very, very high.  My suggestion is that we make a fund that is we collect some kind of fees to use the track beside the JBS for the time being so that the amount collected can be used to built up the permanent track in the future.  Hobby shop also must give some contribution on this issue.  This issue we must handle as a team spirit and professional. Maybe some support from the RCCC can slightly overcome the burden...it is like an indirectly advertisement to the RCCC.  Maybe in the coming race we "jemput" some of the local reporter to do some report on the event going on in Ipoh!!  Free advertisement lol!!!  The company is making money every day what!!  As long as there is coverage on where the monies is going to I am sure RCCC will get the fund they need!  

Not forgeting the NITRO GUYS out there, of course this future track MUST have the spec for the nitro guys!!!  I am just saying EP because now I am playing EP only.  Sorry if I offend you! I know that Ipoh racer is having a tough time here because of the non permanent track to use nowdays....so this is only some of my suggestions to overcome this problem.  I myself don't mind paying the fees to use the track if it is for our own good!  BTW Pak Ya is well known to this rc in Ipoh.., not that we don't have any other prominent figure here but for the unique "leadership" I think Pak Ya is the guy who can handle the job!  Not everyone else have this kind of "leadership" values.  Maybe because of his age that we respect him!  "Hormat orang tua-tua"  Whole Malaysian RC knows Pak Ya!!!  It is the leadership that counts. Cayalah Pak Ya!!!

["I had a meeting with the people from DBI on the predicament for Perak RC enthusiast. They confirmed that the temporary track at Indra Mulia is authorized by them. But we have to find out what is the arrangement for us to use it from the LHS who prepared the track.As for a permanent track, one good thing that came out of the meeting is that, they are open to the idea and they are willing to consider an allocation of a plot of land within the DBI preview for PARCRA to build on own expenses. PARCRA to find a suitable lot somewhere. They did offer the Taman Lang but it is a bit out of the way and also secluded. Taman DR is out of the question since it is congested and not recommended by them. May cost a bundle to clear the area.So guys especially Perakians, pls source out and recommend a suitable place for us to proceed with our journey of self-preservation and independence."]

How about the Polo Ground (Padang Polo)?  Just a thought because it seems that there is a lot of available space around it.  They even have the so called "extreme" bicycle track there....one of the merugikan duit rakyat building it because as I can see only ada beberapa kerat aje bebudak yang ber"extreme" basikal tu every weekend!!!  No offend here but it is true.  

Another spot is maybe beside the Stadium Indera Mulia vacant land...last time if I am not mistaken they used to go-karting there.  Sorry if I am wrong but if the permanent track for rc is situated there that means it is a "centralised" one-stop recreation spot for the Ipoh people!!!  I don't know anywhere else because I ran out of ideas already for the time being.  Anyway it is just a thought!

Oh yes, not forgeting the "penangigo" on the prominent figure in Nitro category,  maybe you can select one from your nitro group to be your leader?  Of courselah you work for free but I think the nitro guys need someone who have the leadership skills.  For Ipoh Nitro Guys I think the best candidate to hold the post is David Lee from Taman Cempaka.  He is the old tai in nitro.  I don't know but he seems to have the leadership skills or the guy who drive the Pajero....also old tai!!!  Forgot his name!!  Just a thought because the leader must be someone who have the communication skills to communicate with others and the management skills to manage the group!

at last, penggiat Rc  khusus di ipoh nih diberi harapan,
Cadangan saya, rasa² tempat paling strategik kat ipoh tu, PADANG POLO ler, sebabnya kawasan tu lapang haa...tempat parking pon banyak haa, lagipon kawasan tu dulu kan memang penah dijadikan tempat event RC (rujuk gambor jamal pos dulu)
tp masalah pada budget ler pulaknya, semuanya kena tanggung sendiri, tp rasa Pak Ya selaku pengerusi PARCRA mesti tau nak buat camna kan,  mungkin boleh dicari penaja?...

P/s: ada trek ke kat ayamas tuh..? ni ayamas mana nih, yg dalam town tu ker..? kira ada race ayam laa ni yer...

Padang Polo tu memang cantik tapi kenapa Pak Ya tak consider, tak tau le pulak teman. Seingat aku, offroad & RC Plane memang ideal kat situ. Malahan, berbagai 'acara' berlaku disana!!  

Masalahnya, politik sana kuat. Org berpengaruh akan marah sebab itu tempat depa jogging! Dan ada yg kata nanti, 'mengganggu ketenteraman jirat Cina'!

I really agree with our brother here. Hope PARCRA will find ways to overcome this problem. But mind you, the cost for a permanent track is very high...So, perhaps we can together think of the possible solutions...

[HOW'S THAT FOR A 'PROTEM COMMITTEE'!?!? Kudos to them!]

So what are we talking about/looking for?

I suggest to re-tar some parking lots.

Bro!
DBI have agreed to accomodate the RCers hunger by allocating a plot of land to be used for a permanent track. For starters, Pak Ya & his protem committee are looking into an onroad track. Later on, when there's enough support & interest among members of PARCRA, then they'' be looking for other forms of RC cars (offroad etc.)

In short, DBI is willing to allocate a plot of land but actual construction of track will be PARCRA's responsibility (funds, layout, construction, management etc.).

HOW'S THAT FOR A 'PROTEM COMMITTEE'!?!? Kudos to them!

PS: If you are interested in being a part of the team (PARCRA) and involve in charting the future of RC in Perak, be a member & attend their AGM.

Any news on the "permanent track" at Ipoh?  Since PARCRA is now a association,  I think this is the time the club approach the respective government to allocate somewhere else for the Ipoh racer to "release their tension" elsewhere since JBS is out of bound for the time being!! Beside the JBS is not a good idea for EP because of the too much "dust". Not forgeting the low traction there.  For me, I think as a association now maybe our voice is being listen!!!  It is just a thought cause Ipoh don't have any permanent track unlike other states.  This hobby will die if there is no place to play with.  It is true!!  Why bother to spend more than RM1500 for a electric car but you have no place to play with!!!!   But whenever there is a race sponsored by the JBS, we have to support it but we can't use the track after that.  This is the support we must give to JBS but being chased out of it if using their track after that?!!!    

[letizedi]

Congratulations!!! I'm new to this forum and it is a little late to congratulate on this matter.  Just hope that this hobby will survive in Ipoh especially the EP.  Thanks.
