Formula One Racing Circuit at Batu Kawan, Seberang Perai, Penang

Remote Control Car F1 racing circuit

F1 Racing Circuit at Batu Kawan, Seberang Perai, Penang.  No..no.. this is not the new Penang State Government Mega project on the mainland.  It is the Racing Circuit for Radio Control or Remote Control car built by the F1 drivers themselves with a little help from the Penang State to resurface the little corner at the  Penang State Stadium car parking bays at Batu Kawan town. ("Batu" is Stone while "Kawan" is Friend)

Theses group of  "F1" Radio Control Car drivers usually come together on the weekends to race their prized cars.  They came with complete tool-kits boxes and spare parts for their engines tunings and pit stops checks , battery charging and servicing.  Come and enjoy their company and cheer them on as you need not pay a single sen for the best seats at the finish lines or any corner of the Racing Circuit.  You can rest assured that the race is as hot as those driven by professional drivers at Malaysian Sepang F1 Circuit.

I also understand that there are on-road and buggy track racing circuits at Taman Aman, Senai, Johor for those Radio Control car drivers down south.

So you guys and gals do not just come for the famous Ah Yan Seafood restaurant at Batu Kawan town.  There are many more monkey business you can do here and remember to bring your kids. They will not only enjoy feeding the monkeys along the bridge across the river leading to the Penang State Stadium at Batu Kawan town but they can enjoy watching the "F1" race nearby the stadium.  Remember to bring your own caps, umbrellas and chairs or mat if you are going to watch it.

You can befriend those guys standing the scaffolding to get you started on the hobby.  Be prepared to burn up the fuel in you pockets as these racing cars are not those toy cars that you can afford to give to your kids.
Right here, make sure you be a friend to someone but not a friend to a stone (Batu Kawan).  Not long ago, someone told me this story that a famous politician came over here and make friends with the stones and  make stone erection to mark the construction of Penang Second Bridge Crossing.  Unfortunately, he lost in the election because stone cannot vote for him in the election even though he and his buddies "voted" or marked "x" on the stone..

I say we make friends with the local folks here at Batu Kawan as they are influential to garner votes for you.  I say what a friend we have in Jesus anytime and anywhere.


Do come to BMBC or Bukit Mertajam Baptist Church (Telephone number : 04-5391854) for worship service and fellowship if you want to meet Jesus and make new friends. More importantly, come..bring your kids along to join us on the Children's Christmas Celebration this Saturday December 11, 2010 at two charitable homes at Bukit Mertajam, Penang to share the joy of Christmas with the less fortunate children.
