Frustrated

[NitroM3GTR]

I know someone posted about this a long time ago but I'm gonna share my story.
My Yokomo GT-4 RTR has a LOT of problems, I can't keep the servo arm on, it's really loud and I have neighbors...there's more but I don't remember it all. I'm really frustrated and kinda mad at myself because I haven't run it in a long time. I don't know what to do; I think reasonably trouble-free and nitro R/C cars are mutually exclusive terms. I need advice on what to do. Right now I'm pretty involved in drifting(a bunch of drift vids, Initial D at the arcade for hours) but I have to say that R/C cars don't really seem to drift well. I've worn my tires all the way down but there's no real drifting. Plus, I have like $50 and the $14 I get per week goes towards other things. And I have to pay for homecoming which is $15 or so...I can't afford anything for my car. Even if I would be making more money I think I'd put most of it towards a real car. I never wanna sell my car but I feel bad that it's not getting any use.

Sounds like either "a" you need to wait til you can afford the hobby "b" just chill and get help - id go with "b"

or there is always "c" - find a hotty and have her pay for your hobby - they are out there :hump:

I try to get help but my LHS doesn't seem to want to help.
The worst part is that it always runs away and that doesn't exactly encourage me to drive it more.
