Magman, I am 42 also..I remember those days of 5 minute runs thinking the run times were great...That is so funny. I also remember the mechanical speed controls with big fat ceramic resistors. Then getting my first electronic speed control...thinking it was the coolest thing ever! Then I got into 1/8 scale nitro buggies because electrics were too slow....Now brushless electrics are faster than nitro and have great run times.

Now 60mph all day long is achievable for 15-20 plus minutes with brushless...

Funny thinking back to those days of Nicds and brushed motors.... Best thing is that Brushless is still pretty new and will only get better and better....fast!
