My friend had a rebound. I Had a slammer as my first rc car. Still have it too. Its very similar to the Rebound.. But something broke in it when i flipped sides. After the Rebound i got my Evader St.

RE: what was your first R/C?
my first gas powered rc car was about 4 yrs ago and it was a duratrax sfgp (street force gp) which after a year of service the 2nd year i had it it got a mind of its own and decided to start brakeing everytime i ran it so i was putting more time fixing or tuning suspension or other parts than actual driving. i remember before i got it i used to look at towerhobbies at that car like once a week to see how beautiful it was. now i ahve a savage ss and that thing hasnt given me any problems

My first toy remote control was an around 1/18 scale car which i got about 20 years ago, it could go straight forward, or left reverse only. Next was a nikko iron eagle, which was so much better than the first, but nothing close to my current e-maxx.

RE: what was your first R/C?
my first hobby standard rc car was a tamiya sonic fighter which i got about 16 years ago, man that thing was so cool although i do seem to remember breaking it a lot, could be something to do with the technigold motor i put in it
