A "Thank you" from a happy parent a new RC'er. Great to see how welcoming this hobby can be. ..... Hey there. Just wanted to see if you could pass along a big thank you to the young men that were at your track today. I brought my son there this afternoon for his 9th birthday with his new traxxas. We were unsure of the protocol with others there so we asked these young men and they were very gracious and welcoming! Even turned his truck over for him when he flipped it trying to get used to the power of it.
