But I'm a 2 years recentfag.

>2 years
You're a newfag.

Im a 11 yr Sup Forumstard and you niggers remind me of the good days but with better grammar

Keep up the goodfight brothers

>You're a newfag.
He might be an oldfag agewise like me. I'm a newfag from 2010.

YOU HAVE THAT CAR?
CAN I BUY IT?

Sorry man, sold my RC10 in 1991.

That's still a newfag.

he means age-wise, not Sup Forums or Sup Forums-wise

why would a goldpan confuse or trigger anyone

>That's still a newfag.
>>>
I'm a newfag at 41 years old?

>why would a goldpan confuse or trigger anyone.

Not old or autistic enough to remember the glory days of Team Associated.

I had one of these. I got a porsche body for it. The chassis was actually made of titanium, and I got it up to 35mph, which wasn't even that fast compared to some.

I had 5-6 different bodies that fit onto it, but the porsche was the coolest. I had a backup car that I treated like a parts car. But I could get it running when friends wanted to race.

I'm 35

Oh. So he's a newfag?

asc still seem to be the go to choice at my local track

Not sure if you've been keeping up but if you ever want to stroll down memory lane rc cars are stupidly fast now

>asc still seem to be the go to choice at my local track

>tfw living in PA and you don't even have a local track anymore.

Gold-tub RC10, huh? Associated was the team to beat when I was a kid and into that.

Pic related ws the car I had. Schumacher Cat was the hot shit new 4wd then, though.

who remembers tamiya cars?

>Schumacher Cat was the hot shit new 4wd then, though.
Yeah I remember some homo in middle school always touting it. Had one of these that I put way too much money into, and they let me race 2wd class if I took my front dogbones out. I faired pretty well, considering.

>bringing back memories of being too poor to have cool shit

some POS toy wannabe RC car?

>who remembers tamiya cars?
Oh, like the Wild One, Blackfoot, Monster Beetle, Lunch Box,

>some POS toy wannabe RC car?
>RC10
>wannabe

Look at this child and laugh.

2012 newfag here
That rc car look unfinished.

and the crazy thing is that every kid has, and is 'meh' about, shit that I would have sold a kidney for back in the day.

I also can't believe the kind of shit you can get for less than $100 on nitroplanes.

And yet the 80's was maybe the best time to grow up in the US.

He thinks oldfag refers to time spent on /pol.

My first RC car was a LOBO II. My dad got it for me for Christmas. I wanted an RC car, and boy was this thing sweet. It was 1987 I think.

>I also can't believe the kind of shit you can get for less than $100 on nitroplanes.
>And yet the 80's was maybe the best time to grow up in the US.

Fuckin right it was. I noticed the same thing with RC planes. I built a Leisure Playboy electric back in 1989, cost me a shit ton of paper route money and time. Now you bind a radio to a prebuilt perfect F4U Corsair and have at it.

Bitch please, I know way more about RC than you, also cars are for retards, helicopters are where its at, that actually takes skill

What was the one that was so popular? Frog or something?

I can always remember lusting after a Kyosho Optima.

Check this out

>30 yrs ago

Jesus Christ Im old.

You're only an oldfag if you regularly posted on /new/.

Shit I think I had one of those. Used like 8 AA batteries?

now is the perfect time to grow up for instant gratification, little shits never want to build models anymore

OMFG that was the exact car I used to fap to.

Oh shit nigga I am just now rejuvenating my RC10!

HOLY FUCK!

>full bearing upgrade
>stealth transmission
>high turn motor

Yep. It had a little 'pack' that you'd put the batteries in and then it'd fit inside the frame.

i had an astute and a giant lunchbox both broke
so i bought a nitro powered stock car built like a tank still got it in the loft

>not going for the gusto and fapping

This was the last car I bought. My last hurrah in RC racing. Then I discovered pussy. Now I'm bored with pussy, so RC cars are more interesting.

>I'm a newfag at 41 years old?
Yep

REAL NIGGA HOURS

Was R/C a big thing in Bongland back in the late 80s? We really didn't have any way to keep in touch regularly back then.

It's a remote controlled car.

This is a retarded slide thread and it belongs on Sup Forums.

Fuck you. sage

>Now I'm bored with pussy
lol oldfag confirmed

>helicopters take skill
>press a button to make it auto-hover
>press another to make it land

...

I even have my special Team Associated travel case for the fucking RC10.

Waiting on some parts now, it's going to be period authentic. I want that chain drive 4WD upgrade some day.

does this trigger you?

Oh man, I hear you. I was so into boy things when I was prepubescent. I loved sports, riding my bike, making stuff from wood, fishing, etc. RC Cars were another huge thing. Then I realized girls were pretty neat. Almost all of my hobbies went out the window in favor of chasing girls around and trying to be 'cool.'

And now at 35, I couldn't be more bored with women, and all I want is to get all my hobbies back.

>Yep. It had a little 'pack' that you'd put the batteries in and then it'd fit inside the frame.
Yeah that's the same one then. I felt like a big shit when I spent like 30 bucks on rechargeable AAs...still took like 9 fucking hours to charge.

Right when I was getting out of it 'mid-engine' was like the new thing because the Schumacher Cat had it and was winning everything. Several years ago I picked up a RC Car Action mag and it looked like all the cars were back to rear engine.

>Sup Forums has a successful mission trolling Shippy La Doo

>now we're all srs bzns because we r leegun
Piss off.

Yes, the nitro sport (jato?) is a fucking turd

>This is a retarded slide thread and it belongs on Sup Forums.
I'm not sliding anything. I'm confirming a suspicion of Sup Forums being of the same mindset and/or age.

Is this where we post awesome RC cars? I got to go with the Ninja 4WD. I had one of these when I was a kid and it was bad ass.

Alright this is of utmost importance guys
Where the fuck can I buy OG metal beyblades? The entire market is plastic now.

yeah was pretty big as a toy/hobby not so much competitive racing though
used to race friends in local carpark with this beauty

There needs to be quality control or else this place will dissolve into complete shit.

More so than it has already.

I'm a 7 year fag and i still consider myself a newfag.

>And now at 35, I couldn't be more bored with women, and all I want is to get all my hobbies back.
Chase the dream, brother. Get them back. It's way harder at this age.

Fuckin RC10 was the ultimate. Big ballin kids.

>Parents could never afford that shit and I always had crappy Radio Crap RCs.

Oh shit I remember. 2006 era Sup Forums reads like whatsapp chat group full of high schoolers. Too bad I don't have any caps on this device

>Sup Forums
>quality control

irl kek

..........................
I used to sell RC cars at Radio Shack. They were sad, weak and slow shit. I had one for like a week and it was more than anything, depressing.

I had a buddy that had like everything cutting edge and was really serious about RC. His stuff was so cool....

>AWESOME!

those are toy helicopters retard

I can cut grass inverted with my 90 size, no button for that

a car is just left right and faster, way too easy

Im getting all nostalgic now.

I miss my rc trucks.

Biological age does not make one an old fag

I went through almost 20 years of flying R/C after my car stint. I was way out of place in the local club age wise. Now I want to get back into cars but nobody does it anymore. It's all those cool but faggoty drones now. No plastic drone will ever take the place of a Great Planes Piper Cub with an OS engine.

back in 90s I have this
u jelly ?

>drone

It's a quadcopter faggot, not a drone

>a car is just left right and faster
Kek, go back to your prius

>t. cant hover a heli

I'm actually picking up guns as a hobby. I bought 4 last year, and I'm looking into my 5th now. I enjoy doing little modifications to them and browsing /k/ for ideas.

Bushcraft has become a secondary hobby. But I need more time to get good at that. I don't get out into the woods as much as I'd like. I'm trying to think of other stuff that I could focus my autism on as I get older. But I've been directing most of it towards survival-related stuff and not purely 'fun' anymore.

2008 here. I discovered Sup Forums
By accident. I wanted tie download some motivational posters. There were ones with a van all stuff I didn't know about. I thought the download was corrupted with the Sup Forums symbol. Finally I just put it UN google and there I was. Vert first thing I saw was a gore thread. I took some of the images and used them in a driver safety class I had to teach. Felt that/ b/ was useful. Now it sucks LONG LIVE Sup Forums

Post vintage R/C car and plane porn.

Guns is a cool as fuck hobby, guns, RC, and machining are my main hobbies

Fine, whatever.

This is the lame "Toys R Us" shit I had. It was fun, but it broke easily.

>I'm actually picking up guns as a hobby.
I did that too, big time. But I just want the simple times back.

That's a nice 123 block.

>not politically relevant
>no explanatory info
>get off my board
go back to Sup Forums you larping faggot

they are easily the most useful thing ever

>not choosing superior American RC car
pfft

What is this abomination, it's beautiful

My first car...ordered from Sears

Never knew until this moment that it was a Kyosho with a Cox name on it.

still have a 90's rc stock car with a nitro plane engine in it,not used in 25 years, but quite fancy a racing drone/quadcopter with 3d headset

team associated was always second best to Losi

Only newfags call newfags newfags, newfag

Machining would be fun. I should look into it more. I've watched videos and been hypnotized by the techniques people come up with.
I hear you man. Simple times. The 80s were the perfect time for kids. No internet. Barely even used the phone. Nintendo was cool, but not immersive like video games are today. I actually had a black and white TV as my main television as a kid.

Oh, and THE ANIMAL. Did you guys ever get one of these bad boys? It had the claws that came out when the going got tough.

I did my time as a tool and die maker from 1996 till 2006. I agree. Should see the magnetic parallels I made from 1x1x6 blocks of brass and 16D finishing nails. I was a surface grinder.

ta was a platform for mods like no other though

you could tune them like mad

I absolutely remember that ad.

Just start spamming GIRUGAMESH

No one will ever question you then.

Fast Traxx.

It was good at going fast.

>aeromil industries
defense companies getting in on the rc car market

I don't think i'll ever be on the same level as tool maker, but I enjoy the shit out of it

How did you hold parralels while you faced them? I cant figure out how to hold thin shit in my vise properly

>all these rc cars more intricately designed than my actual car

True, all hobby shops had AE parts

Losi didnt exist until after TA dominated for a few years, though.

tub was heavier but you could water/dustproof it pretty good with tape, also it protected the battery and electronics

little heavier, much more rugged than the later carbon chassis

How about the Tower Hobbies catalog?

I had the off brand Kyosho stuff...
