Ahh, sibling rivalry! Love it!! LOL I'm the younger by 5 years, but plus 85lb and 6".. big lil' brother, and still a pain in his a$$!!
My lil brother 3 years younger, is 4" taller and as of today I am finally skinnier.
Nicd! That's what the batteries were! Couldn't think of the name. I remember seeing a Clodbuster back then at a hobby shop and being in awe. I also remember the heated debates of nitro vs electric back then, nitro was actually better than the battery powered stuff back in those days if I recall correctly, got way more back to back run-time. That's an awesome story, he has to keep that Stampede in the family forever now lol.
Its in poor shape, getting t-boned by a T-Maxx in the back yard resulted in a wrestling match to the death. Trust me, if my brother shows up at the holidays with a 1/8 scale, I am buying a Vandette and paying next day air shipping.
Remember how long it used to take to charge Nicid...if you didn't fully charge them they would relearn and never charge to full capacity.
20 minutes on the dial charger on max amps! Hot packing it! We would run a pack and jump in the pool all summer.
