Hello, i'm from Charleston S.C. On active duty in the USAF currently stationed in northern Japan. I am a huge racefan, my favorite drivers have since been long retired & passed, I was a huge fan of the late Dale Earnhardt & retired Rick Mears. I was also a fan of Danny Sullivan & Al Sr & Jr. I'm 37 years old & love BMX biking, Lego's, Asian women, & diecast cars & trucks. I have a huge collection of diecast that include mainly 1/18 CART Indycars & 1/24 NASCAR's & trucks & transporters. Diecast Promotions & First Gear. Look forward to getting to know you all...

Welcome aboard! I love Legos too, but I'm also fond of Lincoln Logs too.

Nice to have you here!! Nice screen name - I was always impressed with that car being able to out handle the Lolas enough to overcome the HP handicap of running the Chevy C vs the Fords.

Thank you for your service to our country. I was in Tokyo many years ago, any good model deals there?

Nope, sorry Professor. Everything cost more in Japan well except for things built here like Tamiya's but they're still pretty pricey. There's a big hobby outlet store in an area called Chiba in Tokyo & they have a pretty big selection and an onsite RC drift track but again, everything cost a good bit. Unless there was something specific that you had been looking for for a while & they had it I would not suggest buying from them. Even the regular autoarts & such that aren't that popular are over $100.00 here.

Welcome aboard. Even before scrolling down from your post, I KNEW Jordan was going to mention your screen name. He is the most knowledgeable person when it comes to the PCs.
