RE: when did you get into rc cars?
In 1985 I got a Grasshopper, then a HotShot, then a Big Bear. Me and my kids had a lot f fun with those for several years and they got put away. I later gave away all my gear to a friend with a young son.I recently spoke to that friend, and his son is still running the Grasshopper and HotShot. My wife died in 11/09 and I got back into RC cars with an SC10.
