RE: Your age?
I'm 41. Bought and crashed my first (and only) plane in '82. Built and sunk my first boat in '83. Bought my first car (mini-baja) just a few months ago. It was so much fun I bought myself a T4 for my b-day.

RE: Your age?
I'm 25. I have loved R/C cars since I was old enough to hold a controller/transmitter.
My first R/C (REMOTE control, wired not radio[&:]) was a small black Trans-Am with two AA batteries in a remote with two buttons on it, one for foward and one for reverse and a wire going to the car. I can't believe how much of a blast I had with that think in my Grandma's kitchen. It was the good 'ol turn in reverse style.
I have had countless R/C cars since then. I had many other wired remote control cars, Tyco R/C cars, Radio Shack cars, Niko, New Bright, etc., etc.
I eventually got into "hobby grade" with a Rustler and haven't looked back. I've had/have a Rustler, Electric TC3, Factory Team RC10B3, Micro RS4, Micro-T, RC18B. I think the only one I don't have anymore is the Rustler. I sold that to a friend a long time ago after I got the B3.

RE: Your age?
Just had a flashback. My first toy RC car was also a Trans-Am. This was back in the mid 70's and it also had only two buttons. One for full right and one for full left. It was always going forward and I spent most of my time chasing it around to un-stick it when it ran into something.
