Already got made fun of by some teenagers with more fragile egos and less expendable income than me.
Could've just asked and I would've let them try!
Axial SCX24 Base Camp for those interested.
My spouse got me a really nice off road truck/buggy for Christmas, and without fail, every time I go to the park with it, people from toddlers to senior citizens come to watch it for a minute or two, and often middle age dudes come over and ask if they can try it out.
Nobody leaves without a massive grin on their face from a super fast flippy beast of an rc car.
The only people who criticize such things are people who take life way too seriously, and care way too much about how people view them.
The rest of us have fun.
Also I keep wanting a slower rock crawler so I can have fun on the hiking trail.
I just need to make something that flips my trucks over when I don't want to walk 200ft...
