Hello all. I've just joined the forum after reading it for several years and thought I'd tell a bit about myself. I've had a quite a few RCs over the years, mainly Tamiya, starting with an original Rough Rider hand me down from my Dad.
The first car that was mine from new was a Grasshopper 2 (super g?), followed by a Blitzer Beetle, Escort Cosworth, McLaren MP4/6 F1 car and Madcap. None of which I have anymore, but really wish I'd kept them - especially the Madcap, that car was so much fun: I was running a 10 double in it and I still have know idea how the gearbox survived!
I currently have a Scania R620, a re-release Frog and a Midnight Pumpkin (bought for my son) that are up and running. I also have a couple of projects: my old Manta Ray that is currently sitting in 2 carrier bags that I have been meaning to clean up and see if its worth putting back on the road and an onroad chassis that could do with a strip and rebuild. I'm not sure exactly which chassis it is but it is a front engine belt driven 4WD from years ago.
I'm considering my next car: can't decide between a Hotshot, Wild One or Optima (well out of my comfort zone), and my wife has taken a liking to the Monster Beetle rerelease, I'll get her hooked yet
Well, I'm sure you're all bored of reading this by now so I'll leave it there, I'm sure I'll get some great advice if I ever need it.
