wastegate Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 (edited) I've just bought a Tamiya TNX 5.2R and that's my first Tamiya since I bought a new Wild Willy's jeep back in 1982! I had that for 20 years! I feel old now It's good to see that this hobby appeals to people of all ages and why shouldn't it! I would hate to get older and not have a hobby that really sparks my imagination and creativity! Edited January 3, 2009 by wastegate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had skimmers, 2 huge filters, RO unit, UV filter, and Halides (sp?). A lot of work though but ultimately beautiful fish to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrbubba Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 32 this year and used to race electric for fun when I was around 12 years old. Bought a Nitro RS4/2 about 6 years ago, used it for a few months until it broke and then it just gathered dust in the loft. I have just got it back out and I'm hoping to get it running again, so I'll be on here nagging people for help and advice. Just waiting for a glow starter to arrive so I can see if it will fire up (the pull starter seems to be stuck aswell) Anyone know where I can get some instructions from? I feel a little out of my depth with these Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
