Message: <blockquote data-quote="asdfg" data-source="post: 1064328480" data-attributes="member: 155603">Dear TS,I thank you for posting as this is indeed a very interesting read and like what deaconfrost said, it's good to have someone will to take the time to share for the benefit of those who were unable to attend. It sort of give the rough idea on the competitive atmosphere of the event.I agree with what most have said in here. It's a good read really.However, this is a public forum and you bound to get different types of responses. I would assume you have actually prepared for all sorts of reply. I think you are being rather defensive by calling someone a keyboard warrior just because he/she does not see things the same way as you. (much like you post a pic of yourself thinking that you look really cool and calls the one who commented that your hair is messy or you have a rather big acne a keyboard warrior). If you ONLY want to hear what you are expecting to hear, perhaps a gathering with your fanbois at a mamak could do you better.I cant help but noticing you contradicting yourself over and over."Earlier that week, we received news that the tuning houses Wing Hin and Exotic Mods would be sending souped up Golf R's in a quest to pry the EURO crown from the French Connection. The RS250 had an extremely strong showing in 2012's final round in December, claiming First and Third place convincingly. But this year, it looked like the competition had up'ed their game, coming out in full force and fully modded machines.""Word on the street had it that Wing Hin was targeting a 2:32 in their Stage 3 Golf R. The R.S. Collectif (RenaultSport owners club) Facebook page and Whatsapp group chats were abuzz with the "David & Goliath"-ness of the situation. 2013 would prove to be a real chance to show the big-boys that us Privateers (with our limited funds) could give them a run for their money. And besides, it's always good box office when the little man beats the big man."which part of this wouldnt lead the reader to think you are making this an VW (tuning houses) vs the R.S . Collectif? *it may not have to sound so serious but well, at least to you, that's what you think.**whatever it is, it is not important. most people enter an event like this with a competitive mindset. You could be competing with your previous best time, or like in your case, an imaginary enemy or target. It really is fine. But I do want to ask you this, you sounded rather determined and you want to win this or at least retain the titles from a competitor as you labelled those 2.1) why do you go in with a set of worn tires?(not new ones?) knowing that you really would want to win? Do you go in a shooting war with a gun without bullets?2) TTA was announced long ago and it was not an ad hoc event, everyone has ample time to prep the cars and yourself. Why dont you make sure your cars and those damn nuts are fixed? with the fact that your wheel FLEW off like you mentioned before?3) ask anyone, is WINNING a guaranteed thing? ask any racer. WHO will tell you there's a SURE WIN formula?what Iszo said is correct, "All these cars are awesome cars and even more awesome are the drivers. I have huge respect for all of these fellas on the track and their professional conduct on track", I have huge respect for all who took part in this. Including you. the part where you share out your problems and difficulties, hey, I feel sorry for you too. But like what your friend eric yong said, thats racing for you. Nothing is 100% sure win."All I was trying to point out was that even without the funds for Stage 3 and 420bhp under the hood, even without fresh rubber and having to recycle worn tyres, even without professional drivers behind the wheel, privateers can still come out strong and give the big-boys a run for their money."it sounded to me that you are emphasizing their STRENGTH, to cover your WEAKNESS which you should overcome. The david-goliath, lil man vs big man talk will be more glorious should you be able to best them even with the problems you were facing.when the privateer vs big boys topic emerged, i cant help but thinking about udner suzuki and his awesome s15. I read alot about him and i dont see him complaining about what big boys tuning houses have and what he does not. he just do his stuffs and he gave it his best. But then again, you obviously do not think like that.whatever it is, it's getting late and you all could probably tell i am just typing whatever it's coming into the head, no construction and phrasing nothing. just plain thinking out loud mode.i agree with most of the reply including rc-ep3. If you do not like what you read, you can call me a keyboard warrior too. This is what i truly feel after reading all the comments.</blockquote>
