Its always good to have a backup plan in case you find yourself with extra cash on hand and no way to blow it on the tank. One would hate to have to spend it wisely or invest it.

:P I got 3 myself, though getting very out dated...

It amazing how much money it costs to run even one eh? The controllers when I got them a couple years ago were over $120 each! Bah!

Calgary had, and maybe still has a track up north where races gather every sunday or second sunday and race with heats for different types and such. Its pretty cool.

The local RC group was in Southcentre mall this weekend recruiting ... they had a couple choppers and planes on display

The choppers are really what interested me the most

I was tempted but I really have to finish my tank/basement first

Well,I guess I'm hooked.I just bought an XRAY XB8 buggy and pre-ordered the larger 1/5 HPI Baja 5B.The best thing about the Baja is its gas(23cc eng),no messing with nitro and glow plugs,just gas and go.This buggy is huge at nearly 3 ft and 20+ pounds.Should be a blast to run
