New to the board, old to the hobby!

Hey Guys! My name is Dale. I live in Kamloops BC Canada. I have a small vintage Associated and Tamiya collection and race new Associated cars at our local track. I started racing in 1986 with a Tamiya Frog and then to a Tamiya Falcon then moved way up to an Associated Graphite stealth car! Tried other brands but always loved Associated stuff. I will get some pics up in the next few days of what I have and maybe you can all tell me what is what! I have and original gold pan car and a newer wider gold pan car both with 6 gears tranny's. I have a couple of DS's and an RC10T black pan with Stealth trans. Great info on this site! I love it!

Welcome Dale. You sound like me... 17 cars, 16 Associated RC10/T/L/LSS, 1 Kyosho Scorpion (my first real rc car).

Great board here Dale, endless info. Tons of pics and the guys here are top notch. No better in the world.

Seriously, the worlds best are here. I have no problems saying that, someone please dispute me on that...

Hey Dale, welcome to the board! Nice to see another Canuck here

Its true, I don't think you'll find a more knowledgeable group of people on vintage stuff here (especially the RC10) anywhere.

The problem is that I expect my LHS to have this same level of knowledge

The first car had the 3 piece wheels on it that still have the original tires in mint shape. The second car is a DS. The 10T is a truck I race in our local vintage races. Still just as fast as the T4.1's!

Welcome to the forum! I always loved the RC10 with those tires on it, it just looks mean!
