41 here.
When I was a kid, it was RC, modelling, BMX bikes and the occasional Atari session
Now it seems soo many are stuck in the dark staring at a computer screen or game console. Even my kids unfortunately, they just have no interest in RC.
Soo few kids doing RC nowadays...

Yea I've got to lay off the video games myself, because although it seems like fun I'm just gonna stop trying to keep up with the latest and greatest and be happy. By the way, how are the tracks down there in Florida. The tracks up here are fun even though there's a few I don't like but I guess that's how it is with everybody...

i have the Revo 3.3, the slash, sledgehammer, tamiya superhornet, 3 associated rc10t's, and a tamiya blackfoot xtreme.
the sledehammer, superhornet, and the rc10t's used to be my dads from 20 years ago and surprisingly enough they still run.

RE: Age??
35 here. Been into RC cars since I was 11. Got a Grasshopper from my mom in the summer of 85 and never looked back. My collection today is somewhere north of 60 cars from various manufactures. I tried my hand at boats about 5 yrs ago but that didn't last too long. I didnt find them exciting enough to keep my interest but with the new brushless models hitting the water I might try again next summer.
My other interest is 1/1 cars. My daily is a 2002 Tacoma but my toy is a 80 cutlass with a 427cid SBC with a pair of 66mm turbos and a Big Stuff 3 EFI system. I've been into 1/1 cars just a little longer than RC. I can remember my father teaching me when I was just barely old enough to see over the fender so maybe 7 or 8 yrs old.

I will be 28 in June, and my oldest is 2.5 and he loves watching me drive around and jump, and he loves to drive his little cars around too. Can't wait to get him a 1/16 Revo :-)

john01374 , agree with you, a few years ago when i had a financial surplus i bought a bmw 328 and a bmw x5 suv, pretty sure i got in rc just because i couldnt afford (and didnt have the space for) more 1:1 cars
