Hello I am a r/c car enthusiast living on the Suffolk/Cambs border, UK. It all started for me in the Winter of 1978 when, aged 13, I swapped my Airfix 'Flight Deck' game with a school friend for a beat up Robbe Trial 12 dune buggy which I probably spent more time working on than actually driving but the enthusiasm created by the buggy eventually lead me into 1/8 IC, initially with a Mardave JPS Lotus which I ran during the free practice sessions at Lilford Park and later, through a series of trade-ins and with much parental sponsorship, a PB9 International Porsche 917/10 which I actually entered some proper races with. I stuck with the racing for a couple of years but life, school, bikes, guitars etc eventually overtook the r/c cars.
At some point toward the end of the 80's I felt the need to get back into r/c cars and over the last few years I've had all sorts of cars both Tamiya and non-Tamiya (see 'the ones that got away' in my showroom) and tried most classes of racing but I now enjoy rebuilding cars and saving old wrecks (especially 1970's stuff) as much as I do driving them! I do however have a small 'core' collection of cars which get run when the weather's too bad to fly my helicopter, but that's another story!
Thanks for reading! Buzz.
