)So he takes it outside with a huge grin on his face and says he will race anyone.
Of course all the kids line up.
My kid being the generous type says he will give them a head start of two drive ways. So the kids start off and they are WALKING beside their cars.
The B44 starts off crawling...quite literally...and he is creeping beside them and then he just punches it down the street, comes back, turns around, then starts crawling beside them again.
The look on their faces was absolutely priceless! I thought I was going to die laughing.
So then the kids all come up to me and start asking me questions like - 'can you build me one?' 'Sure kid, got $500?' But then one kid, who obviously knows something, asks me this:
Kid - Is that a Traxxas?
Me - No, its a TEAM ASSOCIATED
Kid - But I thought Traxxas was the fastest name in RC! (Seriously!!!)
Me - They have one car that can go 100 mph, that doesnt make them the fastest.
Kid - Oh. Well I want a Team Associated now anyways!
Anyways, then we brought out the Gold pan and I explained about it to a captive audience of 7 and 8 year olds. Then brought the T4 and drove that for a bit too.
All in all, was a fun afternoon of bashing on the street. Lots of my neighbours came out as always to watch me zip up and down the street.
