Have you noticed though most of us old guys have a bunch of R/Cs and still love to play!
Old saying......... the difference between men and boys it is the price of thier toys and in the end the one with the most toys wins :cool:
Keep the hobby alive you younger guys and you will never regret the fun you have playing with them it will keep you young at heart ;)

The wife doesn't mind much these days, I think this is better than sex (it's been a while and viagara isn't an option at this age---too risky with heart problems)! I have grandchildren and it's the reason why I got involved in the 1st place. My driving is top notch I'm the fastest guy on the track and enjoy beating (or as you youngsters call at the track whooping ass) all the teenagers. Of course I have money and have the best engines soo hardly anyone can challenge me; this is aslong as my eyes aren't bothered by the sun too much.

When I was 15/14 and still actively involved in RC my collection included:
Tamiya Grasshopper later converted to a Hornet
Tamiya Lunchbox
Tamiya Astute heavily modified for racing
RC Team Car also heavily modified
Two Tamiya 1/24th scale micro cars one which I gave away
I have since given all of my cars save the team car to my 50 year old father who has been restoring them and also just picked himself up a new Stealth B4 kit, as for myself I am now 27 and looking to sell my team car and with the money pick up a nice TC3 racer for bashing around, will put some nice rims on it and either a BMW, Porsche or super car body on it, conceal the antenna and just drive it, I have no desire to race again for a long time or until I move to an area which has more than one track which is nine billion miles away :)

Man, I've been RCing since before your parents planned to have most of you. I'm 41http://img9.photobucket.com/albums/v27/lola_gt/Smilies/olman.gif
Too many planes over the years to list.
H 7 PBS
Serpent 950 times two

And others over the years...
Never give up RC, it's way too much fun. I can't imagine the cool stuff you 15 year olds will be RCing with in 25 years, hope I'm still around to play too.;)

half of them are just desk Warmers lol
I am 40 and I've been playing with rc since I was 25. I lost interest in 1996 except for occasional short runs with the inferno but just recently got interested again. My current rc's are:
kyosho turbo inferno
kyosho rampage pro
kyosho Mclaren F1 GTR Superten GP 4WD
smashed kyosho concept 10 helicopter - after my first crash I had a pro fix & fly it in front of me, then I crashed it 3 more times, kicked it and broke it in frustration, and gave up. I'll stick to the ground from now on. it will go up on ebay soon for parts
I plan to try on-road racing and my next car is a serpent 950 or 950R. I'm going to a local race on July 18th to see a 950 which if I like I will buy. otherwise it will be a new 950R.

currently I have one job, a Computer Teacher's assistant at my old school for minimum wage ("funny to see 1st graders bang on keyboards") and im homeschooled btw so, i got alot of time to do stuff.

Im 13 and I have a Tmaxx with $2000 in it, a TC3 with a gt7, $107 dollar steering servo thats so fast its not even funny, and a 12x2 fantom motor. Now I also have a TC4 that i race with a gt7, same servo, and a chamelon 2 pro. My controller is a old airtronics were u can chang just about everything on the car and its hooked up to both my onroad cars.

I'm 29. Just getting into the hobby. I have an old Tamiya Monster Beetle from years ago. Looking into buying a nitro stadium truck. Any suggestions? If so, reply to me post in this forum titled "Need friendly advice". Thanks!
