Hello, new to the forums today. Last car I had was the original Kyosho Ultima back in 1987! Looks like things have changed but many of the players are the same. Currently deciding between the B5MLite and the TLR 22 3.0 for my return car. Plan to choose by the weekend. Been having a great time researching the new stuff the last couple weeks! When I was younger, I didn't really have the opportunity to race on a track, now I have 5 or 6 tracks within 30 miles it seems.

Glad I have found this hobby! Although my bank account may say otherwise .

Hey guys,

My name is Eric and I am completely new to the hobby. 25yrs old (going on 26) and have never picked up a remote. I actually don't even own a ride as of yet, still researching and trying to see what I want to do. All I know right now is that I want to get into oval racing. Saw one of the local clubs racing up the road from my house here in Pensacola, Fl and really enjoyed the atmosphere. Look forward to scouring the forums and soaking up some knowledge.

Always liked the hobby. Thinking about getting a new buggy and getting back into it.

Hi everyone. Recently got back into rc with my son (mainly bashing). I want to start trying on-road and see if I like it. Also try some drifting. Not really sure where to begin lol. I have a AE Apex Scion but I guess I'll need something better... Any help with entry level classes and vehicles would be greatly appreciated. Looking to meet like minded individuals also.

Hi everyone, name is Suren. Just got my first RC as a present, a TT02.
I'm a huge car geek, and I also like making photo posts of progress. Speaking of which, I can't link my imgur stuff over, apparently there's a set post limit. Anybody knows the amount of posts I need to make?

Hello!

I'm Danny, and have been in R/C off and on since the 80s. My first car was a Tamiya Hornet. My friend had a Fast Attack and we would bash around the neighborhood.

I got into racing soon after with a Tamiya Frog, and then made the switch to Kyosho.

I've been building cars off and on since! Just recently restored a Kyosho Sideways and have been stock class racing with Associated SC and B4.

Just recently bought another Touring Car. Looks like I'm headed back to the pavement.

Hi I am new to rc car forums but have messed about with rc cars in the mid 80s. And a couple of years ago got a Tamiya tt02 for fun. I was not going to modify it but still have. I use to race I doors on a wooden for with 2wd buggies and early stadium trucks.

Danny5

What is an early stadium truck?

Hello, I am new to R/C period (up until 3 days ago, I had no idea hobby level cars came completely disassembled): my brother got me a 4x4 Stampede VXL this past X-Mas but I only recently really got it out due to the weather and, well, I'm hooked. I am looking to get into racing and building my first car or tearing down and upgrading a used one.

Hi all! I am not necessarily new to the hobby, but I've been out of it for a long time. I raced infrequently when I was a kid with an RC10 (still have it, would never want to sell it). I sucked.

In the early 2000's I raced for a summer or two, on-road with a TC3. It was a lot of fun, but didn't have the mad-money to support the hobby.

Trying again now that I discovered a decent off-road track in the area - I am going to be asking a LOT of questions here as I basically have no clue how to tune for track conditions and a lot has changed since my last stint.

You all seem really knowledgeable and I hope to learn from everyone here.
