Re: Have i created a monster
Yeah he's 10 and loves using a skateboard like a creeper under the mustang..."I'm working on your racecar Dad"...
My 14 yo though, is 6'2 185 and likes sports (basketball/soccer/hockey) and has zero interest in cars. Still working on him though, I'll give him his first car at a dragstrip, maybe THAT will hook him? Can't have it until he makes a pass? hehehe Where were these when I was a kid??? (oh yeah, we had dune buggies and old trucks to drive in the field) |

Re: Have i created a monster
I bought my grandson David, Chris's (Drooze) oldest boy, a Jr Dragster a couple of years ago when he was 12.
He is the poster child for ADD, so we didnt have great hopes about winning a lot, we just wanted to see him have some fun. After the first time down the track, when he almost ran over Chris, and just missed hitting him with the wing, he got the bug. After that first time, every other time he got into the car, he was locked in, and cut some awesome lights. He was perfectly happy with the car, winning some, losing a lot more to faster cars, until he got beat by a 13 year old girl... And that is when we had to get a new Blockzilla, new clutch, up the cam, and give him some more steam. He outgrew it, and it is now off to a new home... So now he reminds me that he is only a year and a half from getting a driver's license, so who knows what he will driving in the future... It is a great sport, and good for for the whole family.
