Got the RC semi truck bug while surfing YouTube. I ordered my first truck in Jan 2012. While watching videos I saw the address RC truck & construction.... I only wish I would have found your site before I started my build. That's ok, you guys will see the next......

Googled custom Tamiya trailers and up popped this site. Poked around for a few days to make sure it wasn't a ghost town forum and signed up! Now i'm always in here reading old threads and new ones soaking up all the great knowledge and talent, learning tricks here and there. Now if I could just figure out how to join a club or which club to join. Can you be in 2?

I got into this hobby and here after seeing tamiya's video of the king hauler as a teenager. Fast forward a few years and after I finished my training with gaining my B Double licence I decided on a new hobby and picked up my single drive scania with a petrol tanker. Fast forward a year now there is a twin drive scania waiting for my birthday and a reefer trailer thats just been built for it I found this forum after a few google searches and here I am.

I searched for RC tractor build, and found the site.
I would often find European sites, but I could not read much. Glad I found this place.

I actually stumbled upon the rc 1/14 scale trucks like a year ago on youtube was a bit interested. then started watching the videos about 3 months ago maybe more. Then I googled forums and got on garden trucking i think. seen a big post from lilgiants and i think he mentioned he was over here alot so i began poking around here. Was lurking for a few weeks then signed up now im on like 3 or for but i spend most of it here. Now I'm just working on funds to get my first truck, which i think will be a king hauler that eventually will be a dump.
