Not my first post (didn't even look into this section until now) but I thought I would introduce myself. Been into R/C since I was just a little kid. I probably got my first R/C car when I was 10 or 11 (I'm 34 now). A Nikko Turbo Panther that ran for about 5 minutes and took 16 hours to charge! My first hobby grade kit was a Kyosho Double Dare that I still have. Fell in love with the look and fact that it had 2 motors, 4WD, and 4WS. Been hooked on the hobby ever since.

I still have every car I ever owned but until a few years ago they were boxed up and stored away. Recently got bit by the bug again and have started restoring them. Right now I am in the process of restoring a Junior 2 and Raider Pro. I also have a LXT and RC10T4 that I bash around the backyard with. Hoping to someday restore my Double Dare back to it's original glory.

Really like the site here and the community!

I've got a Junior 2 thread here and a Raider thread here.

If I buy another vehicle before selling one of these off I think my wife will go nuts!
