Big Boy toys

[FastLane]

Howdy

I'm new to the board but not at all new to the rc world.
When i was a kid ( now 35 ) i used to play all the time with my rc cars and dreamed of growing up and having the real thing. Something about the speed noise and smell of power just drives me crazy.

Now i'm almost all grown up and i still race the rc's. Curently have 2 rctgt's that are all hopped up and fun as hell. They are great to play with but not fast enough anymore. It all started i guess with the rc cars and has grown to include a 850hp turbocharged street outlaw drag car that runs low 9's in the 1/4 at 145mph, a honda xr80, xr100 and xr650 as well as a 1450cc 96 buel lighting S1 race bike.

I should have checked into the nitro rehab center many many years ago. But thankfully i didnt.

So what kind of toys do you big boys play with besides rc cars?

Heres some pics of some of my big toys

Well, you know what they say ... The difference between the men and the boys is the price of their toys!

This used to be mine then my brother took it over when I bought the Tahoe Limited BUT we take turns driving her.

Then there's the boat that my brother, father and I are determined to get once the Atlantic City In-water boat show comes around in the summer. We saw this boat at the NY Boat show and knew it was ours.

She's a 31' Fountain Tournament edition with an 8'4" beam. With twin 250's and 90 gallons of gas she'll still hit 68MPH. All for the low cost of $117,000+ (not including trailer) Now that's a toy that'll fill all the needs for the three of us ... Speed, Fishing & SCUBA. Needless to say, the wife and mother don't agree but what the heck. We've already decided to split the mortgage on this boat. Each one of us takes a 5 year segment of payment.
