I can understand that it is a hobby that people can do without, BUT its a job for some so the contract thing discussed on this thread is serious. So its narrow minded for people say " these are toys. I don't know why people get soo worked up about things." Unless they are talking about why people on here care. but thats kind of the whole rctech thing haha.
I think calling RC cars toys is kind of degrading to the sport and yes i call it a sport (basketball is a sport even if you do it for fun). Toy cars, implys that you are out there driving a radio shack car or something you can buy at Walmart. Similar to calling a 200k drag car a toy because its something you can do without. You can still drive a RC race car for fun and not take it too serious. just my opinion.
