Geri's "Storage Bin"

Post by ireg »

Here is my all time favorite runner/basher (not a vintage yet)

This was the buggy that was used by my eldest son in his first race when he was 8 years old. The following year my youngest son joined the race with the same buggy and now they are 13 and 14 years old.

Although playing RC was never been their hobby, as now they were more inclined in playing basketball and music instrument still the fun memory of it lingers in their mind.

Whenever they see the buggy they can't help talking about the past and teasing me as their faithful volunteer marshal/runner, with a smile and spark in their eyes.

Even though the wind change its direction, I may sell all my kits but not this "priceless" buggy. A lot of memories contained in it that I want to treasure for the rest of my life.

Got this body shell through trading with the intention of using it for my RC10 runner. But having a second thought to use it as a runner shell, I decided to keep and make it a shelfer.
