    I have been into these things for years....I'm 37 and still have a bunch of them laying around.

    I have a rustler vxl with the brushless and 6 cell lipo....had to get the rubber wheels on the wheelie bar because I can't keep the front end down. I als have a 26cc motor in a 1/10 buggy and a 26cc motor in a 4 foot v bottom boat. I have several helos and another couple electric rc's. Looking into getting a rc drift car.
