Who is BloodClod?
Thank you for your interest in knowing a little more about who I am.

As you probably have guessed, my mother did not anticipate my interest in RC monster trucks and name me BloodClod. My real name is Mark Lim and I am born and bred in Singapore.

Some General Info
I'm now into my late twenties and I graduated from the National University of Singapore with a BA degree with honours in Philosophy in 1999. My other major was the English language and I also dabbled in some psychology and social work courses.

I used to work in an IT company but now I'm in one that specializes in mobile communications. What do I do? I'm a project manager - which basically means that I take the blame if a project fails, so I better make sure that it doesnt! <grin>

It's a challenging job but the downside is that it sometimes leaves me little time for my RC hobby.

In time I will enroll in a seminary to pursue my goal of serving God as a full time minister.

My other hobbies include playing the guitar, drawing, metalwork, building Gundam models, collecting transformers (those cool toys from the cartoon series which aired in the '80s) and sleeping (LOL!).

I am a Christian and look forward to adding some pages regarding my church and it's activities sometime in the future.

My RC History
I saw my first RC car in 1988 - it was a Tamiya Hornet that belonged to my friend. I was fascinated by how fast and how cool it was... and I had to get one for myself. But as every kid interested in RC soon discovers, this is not a cheap hobby... and getting a kit was just beyond me. I was overjoyed when an aunt offered to buy me a kit for Christmas and thinking that it would be the only car I would ever have, I picked the most expensive car her budget would allow - a Tamiya Porshe 959 Rally car. I ran this car against my friends' off-road buggies but it just wasn't designed for this purpose... and I thrashed it so bad it now rests in pieces (oops... peace).

Since then, I've run several different cars, click here for a quick list of all the cars I've ever owned.

Now, more than 10 years later, I still love RC though as this site suggests, I'm mainly into monster trucks. I love the challenge of making my own customized parts.

RC monster trucking can be a whole lot of fun. Take a look around here and I think you'll see why!

Keep on TRUCKIN'!!!
