Hello all,

my name is Tim King aka 'Fireman Tim' and I am from Ontario, Canada. My Grandparents were from Peterborough, England and moved here just before WW2.

I lead a RC tank club just outside of Niagara Falls called CAN-AM and I also retail an electronics upgrade for Heng Long Tanks to North America and the UK.

I've been rc tanking (if there is such a word) for about 3 years now with most of my collection being 1/16 scale Tamiya and Heng Long with a few 1/24 Vstanks. Our club just secured a permanent 40'x60' outdoor battlefield location and we being landscaping next month.

Here are a few pics of collection and our club activities:

We have have had a very positive response so far and we are moving forward. Our club has embraced it fully. I have applied to post on the vendor section of this forum and I am waiting for approval before I can advertise it here. (glad to see there is a vendor section btw 8) )

Until then please read all about it on our website or PM me.

I must say that it looks like a very positive crowd here. I should have joined this forum long ago. :D

Welcome Tim!

I've seen your work/postings over at RCU in the past, great to see you here too :D

Posts don't seem to get 'disappeared' over here ;) So if you say something stupid - it stays to haunt you (!)
