Your Say

This guy should have laid off Sci-Fi and geek related stuff, and hit the grammar a little harder. We all make a grammatical boo boo now and then, but take a look at the link. Whew.

A hunnert and seventy bucks for a toy? Really?

I've only been involved with RC twice, the first time when I was about 14 and the 2nd time when my son was about 14 and both times they were with GAS powered machines. None of that silly battery powered junk. I'm talking 600 smph. (scale miles per hour)

Then we moved on to 60" RC boats with 80cc water cooled weed eater engines and twin counter rotating 4" props.
