RE: Average age?
Well I'm slightly over the average at 32. (pretty sad when you have to think about how old you are
) My first real rc was a tamiya falcon when I was 13, then bought a gold chassis rc10 about a year later. I got out of it for around 13 years, then my neighbor brought over his rustler. Now I have 2 E rustlers, 1 nitro rustler, rc18mt, and I just bought a mini mauler to drive in the house(it's been raining here for over a month[:'(].

RE: Average age?
I have been meaning to post my age and I always forget. I am one of the old men on here. I will be 36 in 2 months, I have only been in to RC trucks (Hobby Quality) for a little less then a year. But I have been around RC air planes my whole life. I ended up dragging my Dad in to the RC trucks and he is in his Mid 50s. But I did start out my son right he is almost 12 (You know I will be 12 in all most a month so I am really 12). My son wants to race me and Pops well we enjoy just going out and making it around the track.
So my family and I are 35, 11, and 57.

RE: Average age?
35 ....... or more like 18 with 17 years of experience.
Been doing the RC thing since 83 or 84. First kit was The Frog then an RC10 ..... been hooked on Associated products since. I love RC ... I'll probably die with a transmitter in my hands LOL.
