Hello from Ohio

Post by R Cane »

I've perused the site for a while, always interesting. I got my first "real" RC when I was 10 (in 1980)...I don't remember what brand it was...I want to say Tamiya, but I'm not positive. That was the only one I had growing up, we didn't have much extra money. About 10 years ago, I started to get back into the hobby, once I had some time to devote to it. I have 4 or 5 vehicles that I run, and I also buy/trade for others in various conditions and rebuild them to sell/trade for others...you see the pattern here...
Mostly I had been sticking to more modern vehicles, but lately I've delving into some vintage ones also.
