It was about two years ago and I had always wanted to buy a tamiya, but just couldnt part with my money, then my brother told me about the HL's and that is what started my addiction. So I bought a Tiger 1 and then stumbled onto this section of the forums, and I had been a member of RCU but never went past the rc trucks, Boy am I glad I did. Now I have two tiger 1's and a KT which will have the elmod installed once I get off my lazy bum.
And since some of you live across country or across the pond and up north also, I just want to say thanks for all your tips and talent within this hobby, I consider you all friends and when life hits a wall such as with Phil, it really puts things in perspective and shows the true meaning of life. I started with one tank and will eventually be buying more, and I hope this niche of the rc'ing hobby never falters. Anyway thank you everyone for your contributions and may god bless all of you.

Thank You
Wade
