Greetings from Sydney

Post by BenSy »

Hello, everyone. I have a RC car that we play on with my son. It would be interesting to buy a RC tank as well. I don't know anything about it. But my son insists :) I will ask around in different threads. Maybe some questions will be too stupid, sorry in advance for the newbie :)
I will visit you sometimes when I have free time. We're in early fall now and it's still hot. I also ride my bike, so I don't always have free time.
Cheers :)

Greetings, BenSy: your questions are welcome. Of course, we have devious motives, such as leading you on the path of addiction to RC tanks and other Armored Fighting Vehicles. :D And if we cannot trap you, we will get your son. Mu-ha-ha-ha! Seriously, however, we will help you choose something you and your son can both enjoy. Thanks for letting us know you are in Sydney, as there are no few here who know local sources. Me? I'm in Wisconsin, U.S.

Bensy and son Welcome to the Forum :thumbup: :wave: :clap:
There is no such thing as a stupid question, Just because we might know the answer there is no reason why you should, as you have said the subject is a mystery to you,(But not for long)
We have some very knowledgable residents down under who will certainly want to introduce themselves,
As the Doc said we by use of sweet words and the offer of free advice try to inveigle you into making the Forum more important than Biking (I am a biker :haha: ) Enjoy this place and ask away.
I think I am about to upset someone :haha:

Welcome from Perth...the one in Canada!
No stupid questions when you need to get a couple of tanks. You do realize that you'll be buying two, right? ;)

Someone had better because on June 1st to June 29 this year the USA and the West Indies are together hosting the ICC T20 World Cup,
And there are more countries in the T20 World Championship than there are in the world Baseball Championship :haha:

Cricket is easy.
There are two teams. One team is in and one team is out. The team that is out, try to get the team that is in, out. When all the team that was in, are out, then the the team that was out, go in, and the team that was in try to get the team out.

Damn you Mr Rat, if that isn’t THE most infuriating but correct description of Cricket I don’t know what is :crazy:

Add to that a game can be played for a week and no one wins !!
