my very first hobby grade rc was a ta rc10gt rtr. still have it but now its electric powered
 
My first rc was a sand scorcher i got in the mid 1970's at a little hobby shop called river junction in beaver pa. from Sam and John P's dad and were still good friends today.
 
My 1st RC was 2 Blackfoots my moms BF bought for me right after the man that owned them won 1st in oval & off-road class on money night at a little track in Dover PA. Good times!

Edit: ok, ok that 2 RC's but those 2 were my 1st :P
 
first hobbygrade RC was a Tamiya TT-01, next up was a traxxas stampede.

my first RC however was a tyco fireball or something like that, I drove it till the rear tires were slicks, way to much fun, out of all my past RC's I want this one back the most.
 
Mine was the Tamiya Lunch Box. My younger brother had gotten the Tamiya Blackfoot for Christmas,and I got my Lunch Box with my Birthday money the following March. 20 years later He told me he stopped by a Hobby shop and picked up a Savage. I stopped by and found what they were calling RC Rock Crawlers. That was several thousand dollars ago!:mrgreen:
 
I got a summer job a few years ago and decided at the end of the summer I would use the money I saved up to by a rc. It was between a slash 2wd and a wheely king. I decided on the wheely king and the crawler conversion kit. My parents were pissed I spent all my money on some stupid toy :P they said ill spend all my money fixing it when it breaks. I assured them that it's a hobby grade rc so it won't break. Then proceeded in breaking 3 dog bones with in 15 min of telling them that.
