A most enjoyable evening

I have just finished rebuilding both of my RC cars. I do like tinkering with tools and mechanical things.

Tomorrow I will use one of them as fodder for a demo video so I can flog my old camcorder.

What scale? I used to love 1/10 stuff, but perhaps like you, it was always the tinkering that engaged me rather than racing.

My advice to anyone is to keep it small scale, though. At 18 I purchased a 40 year old car and I've been addicted and skint since. Can't beat a warm sunny day fixing cars or bikes with some mates, though. Especially after spending all week battling modern tech.

To leave more room for your pointless BS. Why don't you ask thd mods if you can have a sub forum.

One 1/10th (an old Kyosho Optima Mid) and one 1/18th monster truck which will be used for bashing around in the park with junior. It's addictive though, I keep looking at new ones and robotics kits. I quite like the idea of these tiny 1/24th rally cars, but I want an integrale or quattro body to go on it.

I did used to enjoy the racing when I was a teenager but there aren't any clubs particularly local to me and I can't really be arsed driving miles for it. The tinkering is the best bit though.

I used to enjoy a bit of real car mechanics but I don't have the space. So toys it is. A lot cheaper too...

Bought a kit for ms#5 a couple of years back. He had fun building it, but has never really been interested in driving the thing.

Go and delete a post in the counting thread. He hates that.
