Never had a Tamiya but some posher kids in the street had grasshoppers and Cats.
Did they skate in their Ipaths or just wear them as chillers?

Fuck, that stop boris thing. Childhood trauma revisited
Not sure where or when but I definitely experienced that terror

Did anyone have that 4trax? It was stuff of legend
Edit bigtrax
Cousin had one, sounded so shit!
Take all that off it might as well be a Burner with a Grifter seat.

I saw this in an Antique shop a couple of years ago. I had exactly the same one around 83-4. As soon as I saw it my brain did a fast show intro style montage back to that year.

Mate had one and yeah, don’t think we actually played it. Similar to my Timpo cowboys and Indian train set. Batteries leaked and whole thing was fucked.

Still got mine at my dad’s house.
Also this too however I’ve been told it can’t be found:
I won’t be happy if it has gone missing as that’ll be one of my little sisters “friends” after I moved out…

Ah shit i had that. Remember feeling really grown up and tech progressing from normal lego
Wanted that one but had this and I constantly kept building different chassis and making Rally tracks I used to drive round.
EDIT: Holy shit, i’m tempted

I still can’t say “well done” without adding the word bigtrak… as per the advert.
