It's pretty odd that I find my self on your forum considering the last time I touched an RC car was around 15 years ago (can't beleive it's that long ago!)
Someone at work happend to show my a youtube video of an RC airplane and then we went on to cars, I then started finding pics of the cars I used to own and got a little excited by the good memories
I sued to be a part of St Albans buggy club in the early 90's. My aunt knew someone in it and brought me my first car so I could join in and loved it. I started off with a Tamiya hornet or something, but then moved onto a Schumacher bosscat once I realy got into it. I then had 2 more cars which were a Yokomo Dogfighter and then another Schumacher CAT2000 EC.
As I grew up i moved onto other things like football and played for Letchworth etc and eventualy moved on, the car sat collecting dust in my loft for years till I gave it to one of my mates.
Ive been around your site and seem some videos of the action and now I want to get back into it, I used to love it!
Im pretty interested in attending one of your race days to watch and see how its grown since I was involved.
My questions are, are you able tome come along to the events to watch?
Also there were a few model companys local, 1 in letchworth whihch is gone, one in Stevenage old town, also gone and one in St Albans which...is also gone, are there any model shops around this area anymore?
If I was to look at getting another buggy, what would you recommend these days? id probabaly want 4wd, things have moved on an awful lot and im prety much new to it all now! :blush:
Cheers guys
