Iknow that I have brought this up in the past (and created a poll which did show some interest), but Ithorught it would be a good time to revisit the idea. It seems like there a lot of hpye around the old Tamiyas, Losi, and AEtrucks that so many have loved in the past. So what is the possiblity of getting a new sub formum for these vintage RCtrucks/cars/buggies. Would it be possible to have it setup and evaluated? If the traffice was sufficent we could keep it, if not you could just move all the post to the larger forums?
Thanks
Thanks

Here is a link to the poll, there have been 1300 views to date, so I think that there would be sufficent interest in a vintage section.

I'm all in!
The majority of my RC's could easily be considered vintage.
I am a mod at AE forums and got the Old School RC10 section going there.
It is very popular and we have more traffic than most of the current AE onroad models sections.
In less than 5 months we have 68 topics and 536 replies.
We are also located at the bottom of the forum and are not a highly visible section.
So if it worked out that well in a forum that does not have alot of members or traffic to begin with I'm sure it would work out well here at RCU.

I'm big into Vintage RC. I currently own around 60 different RC cars and trucks. Mostly old school Tamiya, HPI, Kyosho and a few MRC world scales. I would love a vintage section..
