Ha, I said that too - I bought a Tamiya kit for my stepson for us to build together, telling him all about my old racing days when I was a kid. He got the hang of it pretty quick so I looked for a local track to see if he fancied a bit of racing. One practice day later he was racing.

After numerous breakages and cut short race days I decided it was time to get him a more robust racing buggy, just so happened the bloke I found his was selling two together... One chat with with the missus and I find myself behind the sticks again side by side with the lad.

We both love it and although I started off just having fun with him instead of just fixing it after every heat I'm now improving more each round - much more than when I was BITD - go figure!

Give racing a try, just for the fun of it again - wish I had done it sooner!
