    Really, man! this is a great hobby. And something I hope to pass on to my kids (whenever that happens).

    It's the closest to actually "wheeling" that I'll be for a long time. And just slightly cheaper. :p

    My 2 year old will already sit there and watch me wether I am driving or working on it. Pretty cool experience

    Yea, I've got a 6 year old cousin, I let him drive my SC10 whenever he comes over. (I turn the throttle way down) He does pretty good with it surprisingly enough. It's just a great opportunity for them to gain some sort of understanding of "how stuff works".

    I got a 9 year old cousin that I am going to get into the hobby.
    His father pretty much left them and anything I can do to be a fatherly figure for him

    That's great, dude. I'm one of the lucky one's with a great dad. Busts his ass to take care of his family. I've got so many friends with deadbeat dad's, though. Priorities, FTW!

    My father was never around not because he is a dead beat, but he was in the air-force flying his KC-135 somewhere in the world. So I know what it feels like

    It's all good he was keeping us safe. He was part of strategic air command. he was first assigned to the SR-71 and after they retired it, they moved him to the stealth bombers.
