It would be sad for them to sink into the depths of forgotten threads....

As a kid the concept of being able to control a toy car from afar appealed to me. We were made to think that each and every model was a formula for winning (LOL!)
To this day I still have a soft spot for the 80's through to early 90's off road buggies. I'm glad to be able to share this passion with you all.

Agree with you all. These aren't simply about being the fastest, best paint, crazy alloy fiber composite. Or the rarest and most expensive. Its really about the Memories of a simpler time, when driving these cars WAS our highlight, remembering falling in love with mechanics, psychics, "horse power". When we transitioned from boys to men. Those moments we shared with our fathers building modifying our "toy" cars. This is what RC is all about (at least to me). And these cars, are the backbone of what RC is and has been. These "Share Your Pic" threads are some of the most fun to go over just to see for fun.
So how do we get a moderator to stickey the threads?
