I still remember the summer of1982 when I was building my new Tamiya super champ that my older brother bought for me for what was equivalent to about $120 and about the same for the radio kit, it took me about 3 days to fully assemble it and then played heck out of it for about 4to 5 years until about every part of its chassis broken, bent, or missing! .. I'm 52yo now and I wish I can get a new kit of that car and build it again.

Those where the days the cars. Looked like real racing cars and not futuristic plastic crap toys they look today
