RE: What Was Your First Car?
My very first rc car was by traxxas it was a buggy called the "THe Cat". I think it was their first rtr. That was back in '89 i think.
i had to beg my pop to get it for me! it was on layaway for months! i just loved it. i had it for about 2 years before i sold it. then i got the tamiya balckfoot by accident. I had mail ordered this monster truck with differetial steering called "the royal crusher" but when i opened the package it was a blackfoot! They sent me the wrong one but, i was happy because that was the one i had wanted but was more expensive! About a year ago i bought a T-maxx but, i was desperate for cash and i sold it at a steal! It was one of the worst mistakes i ever made. I sold it for 150 bucks! it was only 3 months old and had a few hop ups!
I'm currently into rc planes but, I'm seriosly considering getting a Nitro Stampede. Cant really afford anything better( have a 4 month old son!)

A Radio Shack [link=http://www.mercadolibre.com.ar/org-img/original/MLA/072004/13494512_6189.jpg]Desert Viper[/link]. Ha, never thought i'd find a picture of it online. I must have gotten it around ten years ago & I still mess around with it today. It is poorly designed, expensive and has barely any ground clearance.
I found that pic on some Spanish version of Ebay & the guy is trying to sell it for $200! What a joke, It wasn't even that much new.
