From a friend who was already on here, and asked me to reply to a question about 12th Scale. I've not yet forgiven him!! :lol:

When the site grew out of Jimmys R/C Warriors, his personal vintage r/c site way back in 2002.

Got to know about Jimmys R/C Warriors from Jimmys posts on Tamiyaclub.
Looking for his vintage stuff back in '05 or so...:thumbsup:
Each time CD forum was down, people used to come posting here... Pure legend :lol:

I almost forgot about the "fuzzy" TV. :)
Things have moved on since Jim was snapping a few "souvenir" shots with the old little Fuji camera;)
I found oOple when I was starting my hobby in 2008. Guys linked to oOple from our national RC-forum: rc10.fi (http://www.rc10.fi). All these well done reviews and reports caught my attention right away and I've been checking the site and forum ever since. :thumbsup:

While having one of my many “I wish I had one of my old RC cars” moments I searched for “Yokomo YZ10” in 01/02?? and found Jimmy’s page with some pics of his YZ-10 at Aire Valley (I think) the site slowly grew to include other cars and instruction manuals and stuff, then race reports, and I was addicted, but only joined the forum a couple of years ago.:blush:
