Default Hi from a noob

Hello,

I've recently started out in the RC world, I've already got a couple of lower end Tamiya kits built and enjoying it so far.

I was hoping to show off a couple of pictures but it's not letting me as I'm new here.

Any way look forward to getting involved with you guys here and no doubt I'll be crying for help in these early stages.

Hi Dan

yeah its been a lot of fun building my own. The very first RC car I got was already built I won it on ebay while looking for items for my 1/1 car.

I later decided that I enjoyed it so much I had to get a couple of kits and make them from scratch. I got a neo scorcher that I can burn around in my garden. Also a TT-02D with a HPI lexus body.

Hi Blis, thanks for the reply.

Been out to the track for a 2nd time last night and already broke one of the front knuckles lol. So I'll be doing my first repair soon.

Hey John, welcome, that car looks alright, nice body shape.
I had a few Tamiya offroad buggies when younger myself, good cars, specially when first starting out, we got alot of enjoyment out of them back in the day.
Hope you enjoy your cars, hopefully you don't break to much.
