Almost 30 years ago, I got the Holiday Buggy along with one of my friends. We quickly wore the tires down and inserted spikes to drive the cars on a frozen lake. Today both of us share Tamiya/RC with our sons.

Before RC I spent most of my time playing with 1:1 cars and rally driving. Work injury meant a change in hobby.

Striker as a first car!

That's got to be unusual!

Thanks to all the posters so far. I'll do some highlighting/better formatting of the years in due course. B)
