Default RE: Interested in finding out average age and demographics of current RCU Users

36 years old, married with 2 kids (2nd one is still in the oven), born in Warwick, near Coventry in England, moved to Athens, Greece 10 years ago. I'm a career IT specialist (working professionally in IT since the age of 16), currently in charge of Enterprise Applications deployment for one of the Big4 consulting companies' audit division in Athens. For a real car, I drive a Honda Civic Type R, and am a dedicated Honda fanatic. A fast real car is a pure essential of life for me. Got my first RC aged 8 years old, an original Tamiya Frog, and apart from a few extended breaks over the years, I've been RCing since then. I raced extensively in 1/10th nitro on road where I thought I was pretty good, then I did 1 off road season in an Xray nitro buggy. Then got into gassers, still have 3 of them. Then family came and now I mainly bash 1/8th scale brushless electric (pinnacle of the surface hobby, imo, technology and performance-wise) when I have the time. I'm a wrencher more than a driver. My main goal in life (as I've accomplished the family thing now), is to own a Lamborghini (any one will do, but an original Miura or a Murcielago LP640 are top of the list) before I hit 45 (used to be 40, but I think that's a little unrealistic now, given what happened here, and that I've lost everything to the Greek crisis).
