Auto Hobbies From Infancy To Adulthood
It has often been said that the difference between men and boys is the price of their toys. Nowhere is this adage more true than when it comes to auto hobbies. A young boy starts out as a toddler with a plastic pedal car that he can ride on or toys he can push around. Later, he may graduate to putting together models or using remote control models with increasing sophistication. Once he reaches adulthood, the sky is the limit and he is limited only by the size of his bank account, from banger races to Formula One. Toy cars come in all sizes and many different materials. You might see a young baby with a car-shaped piece of foam rubber covered in brightly colored plastic or cloth. A small boy will often be found playing with a car made of wood or a metal miniature. Scale model automobiles come in many different sizes ranging from 1:12 to 1:76. They come preassembled as die cast specimens or as kits in boxes for assembly and decoration by the owner. Relevant stickers and decals are often included in the boxed kit. Moving on in expense and complexity are ‘R/C’ cars, remote- or radio-controlled models. Often confused, the two terms actually mean slightly different things. While remote controlled cars include those that are manipulated by a control box attached to a wire that is connected to the miniature vehicle, radio controlled cars use a radio-frequency link. The last stop before full-sized motor car racing is kart racing, or go-karts. These are ground-hugging, four-wheeled open wheel vehicles that race on a small track. The sport was introduced in Southern California in 1956 and is now popular all over Europe. About the time young men start shaving, their interest turns to racing ‘real’ cars. This can mean anything from banger and stock car races to Formula One or Le Mans. Stock cars are those that are raced just as they were when they roll off the assembly line, meaning they have no modifications to make them suitable for racing. Race cars, on the other hand, are designed with racing in mind. HertzCarSales has eliminated the middle man! See for yourself by checking out our inventory, hertzcarsales.com.
