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

Thats a lot of cars for one radio to handle.

I'm actually semi-retired,I'll go nuts just sitting at home,so figure I'll take the summer off and then go to work at something.Heck if I stay home any longer Krisdeann will hang me,spending way too much with this new hobby....but I keep telling her....its for the boy!(she just hasn't figured its me and not my son)

Yeah R/C, fly-fishing and reef tanks are there any more expensive hobbies?

I used to race 1/10 electric truck pretty seriously but the expense of competing with factory drivers got out of control.

I just got a Kyosho one-metre sailboat to build when I recover from surgery to add to a collection of 2 gas trucks, gas car, 3 electric trucks, electric boat, heli, electric plane and another sailboat.

Well I guess I could be a golfer that would add up as well.
Still you can drop a grand on a good fly rod and reel.

Any one up for some truck bashing around McKenzie in a couple months?

That's funny, that's the same excuse I used when i bought mine too!

Fly fishing is a spiritual thing. (Now if I can only get my wife to reallize that the river is actualy my church.)
