I'm 20, 1st August 1983, and am back after a 1 1/2 year absence from anything related to Tamiya. Ah it feels so good to be back. Want to get something different this time for my collection. looking into a Jaguar XJR 12 Daytona, should be a good mix with speed, looks and kinda old(ish). But I gotta say the Wild One seems to catch my eye everytime. Its just so neat and cool looking.

Thanks

James

First car was a Super Champ. First time i switched it on i didnt realise the speed controller was in the reverse position. It shot across the living room and snapped a rear arm.

Noticed from the "first car you saw run" forum that most people seem to be around the same age.

It would be interesting to find out how old everyone is[:D] I bet we are all re-living our childhoods!![:D] I know I am[:D]

I am 31.[:0] My birthday is 23 September 1971.[^]

I am born in February of 1976.

I was infected with the Tamiya virus when I first saw Opel Ascona, Wild Willy I, Frog, and other cars of the early 80s. That must have been maybe in 81, 82, 83, 84 - I am not very sure right now. [8D]

I'm 33 born on June 23/1970. The first car I wanted was a wild willy but I ended up getting a FAV first.

Got my son started at the tender age of 3 light years ahead of how old i was when,i got my first Tamiya kit.

Yes I am 30 going on 31 in dec started back in 1984 when Forgs and wild willy were new and you did not mind if you broke off the head of willy or lost the wing off a frog.

And yes this helps bring back them good old days of racing and not working [8D]
