Are you one of the millions who love racing radio controlled cars? If you're not, it's something that you should seriously take a look at.
It's an absolute hoot! Motor sport (Indianapolis, Grand Prix etc) is one of the last sports strongholds that men can still call their own.
Yes, there are plenty of women interested in it too, but predominantly it's a male orientated thing.
But haven't you also had a hankering for driving one of those mean machines? I know that most guys have; but short of getting a day out on one of those entertainment race car circuits, that's as close as most of us ever get to it.
Unless you're into owning and driving remote controlled cars, and in particular RC gas cars.
Now don't chuckle; if you've never done it, you've no idea of what you're missing.
It's totally amazing.
A lot of us first get hooked when we're kids and we get our first remote controlled car as a birthday present from mom and dad.
It's one of those gifts that you play with a couple of times and then forget about it and hide it away in the cupboard, or you get totally caught up in it, hook line and sinker.
If you're anything like me, it's the latter, and I'm now in my forties and still enjoying it as much as ever; no, probably even more if the truth be known.
You see, you can go and get competitive, and start racing RC cars.
  But be warned because before you know it you'll be living, eating and breathing RC gas car racing.
When you're not tuning up the car and trying to figure out how to get that little bit extra out of it, you'll be looking forward to the next race and trying to sort out your tactics to be first to the checkered flag.
Racing remote controlled cars has turned into a big thing these days, and not just in the US.
There are enthusiasts all over the world.
It's got to be RC gas cars of course because that's where you can get the power and the speed.
There are circuits and tournaments all over the US and in other countries too.
It's my ambition to one day set up a world championship, along the lines of the Grand Prix.
Well, you've got to have a dream to pursue don't you? But even if you're not into racing remote controlled cars you can still get mega fun out of the hobby.
For the real nuts and bolts enthusiast, building your own car is what it's all about.
RC kit cars have turned into an enormous niche market.
There's a load of great products around and you can choose from a whole range of different types of vehicles as well as different models.
You can also customize you RC car with special bespoke wheels and custom kits and make your car stand out against all the others.
It's awesome! My wife thinks I'm like a big kid, and I guess I am; but I can honestly say that I've never has more fun in my life.
Try it!
