I got started really early with Matchbox cars and Tonka trucks but When I was around 6 or 7 my brother and I shared this one .
Mattel's V-rroom was about a foot long and was battery powered . It just went in circles while you held the stick attached by a string , made engine sounds , and was lots of fun for a little kid !
When I was eight I got a real remote control car ! The Crusader 101 was about two feet long and even had a spare and tools in the trunk to change the tires !
