Tamiya king cab
I miss my tamiya king cab, I was ten years old at the time I save all my money for 6 months for it then I ordered it my self from car action magz but the best memory was the time I spent with my dad building it I'm 31 now I know where it is I hope I can buy it back from the owner I don't care if it's broken and won't run anymore what It won't lack is the memory my dad and I shared together with that kit..

I wish I never sold my original RC10. It was the first RC I ever built from a kit and would mostly have nostalgic value. I learned a lot from it, but there was also a lot of frustration back then due to terrible battery technology and mechanical speed controllers.
Photo is not of mine, but it looked just like this.
BTW, great idea for a thread.

Rc's I have regretted selling in the past have only been 5th scales, since I have gotten them all on staggering deals..I sold them for profits, but they were sick cars.

Im in a delema, I am thinkin of trading my 1/10 Revo as a roller and fear that will be hating myself for it. Just like the mini. I want a crawler really bad and can get a nice Night Crawler for it as a roller, but Im scared I'll hate myself for it in the morning.

The RC10 was my first kit also, wish I'd kept that one ! That along with my AYK Pro Radiant and CompositeCraft Lynx II.

I had a Traxxas Summit, it was only brushed but I still loved it. I didn't easily come to the decision of selling it: I was forced to. Wanna know what forced me? It was the economy teamed up with school tuition.
My only good kit now is my first one, my Slash. Hell will surely freeze over and I'll live in my car before I sell that!

I regret selling my Ofna Dominator (the truck in my avatar). It was my first real 1:8 monster truck.
Sold it for a good price though.
Right now the oldest one I have is Savage 25 bought in 2003.
It rarely gets driven but I`m never gonna sell it. Too many cool memories.

OMG I feel like this everytime i sell a car. The only reason i will sell now is if i get something similar but better. (e.i. revo 3.3 for revo platinum).
The biggest one i regret selling was my first nitro rustler. I put a lot of TLC in that truck. I sold it for 150 bucks to buy wheels and tires for my 1/8 buggy.

Hpi Baja 5b
Hpi blitz
Hpi FLUX (awesome truck)
Losi xxxt mf
Losi xxx sct
duratrax vendetta
Associated Gold pan buggy converted to old classic car
drive that here and there but would like to make it brushless some day and run it more on the street but i don't want to hurt it
traxxas slash 2wd everybody should have a beater
and the best addition lately
RC8BE factory team,,, tekin rx8 and 1900 motor
I have to say when they all have problems too close together its a bit over whelming
but its been a great last 10 years in the hobby
used to run Nitro's but after brushless and 2 strokers there is no need for nitro anymore
