Wow 3rd time?? I hope not... not doing bad still pretty sore and weak in the back, but doing pretty good still can't bend lift or twist like the doctor said, and my back catches alot but i just think its the nerves and muscles coming back online and there weak and sore, i'm only 42 and in pretty decent shape, had a job at our local high school as the janitor and moved alot and off until probably the first of march depending on how i heal and will have a weight limit of 20 pounds when i go back but they said it should be totally fused by the 6 month which will be june...

Back to thread topic...

My first crawler was a redcat and I don't regret it a bit. I had a lot of fun over time modding it out and getting it hopped up. However, I've about reached the top with the redcat and (1 yr later) working on a bully build for a serious comp threat.

Overall, i don't regret it because it was an inexpensive way to get me interested in the crawling side of RC.

That's the great thing about the hobby?? Anyone can pic what rc they prefer and make the most of it... I to have redcat stuff hpi and traxxas and i have no brand loyalty to any all it is, is having fun and at the end of the day no matter which brand i play with i enjoy and have fun, don't get me wrong sometimes they work and sometimes they don't but hey thats life and we try to enjoy the most out of it everyday we have...
