My first "real" rc car was an old gold tub chassis RC10 around 89-90. Raced it off road for a year or so then converted it to a sprint car, then sold it when the local track at the time closed and was out of racing until about 6 years ago. Picked up an FT T3 from a friend and went to a T4 like two months later, still have that T4. First nitro car was a Traxxas nitro hawk. Wish I knew what happened to that truck.
