Not quite, you cheeky beggar, but it will happen.
I have no idea where the QD is, but his TC3 (bought for his 5th b'day) is still going strong, as is his B4.
I would definitely recommend going with a decent car, not an Argos cheapy. I limited the little fella's car with a stock motor and 4 cells initially and he's up to 6 cells and a spec motor now.
To all the dad's out there buying cars for their kids, just be careful, the older he gets and the more he races, the more I turn into "Racing Dad". You know the sort, getting arsey when he drives badly, shouting at the marshals, and all the other bad traits that I promised myself I wouldn't do....
