This looks like fun. I found it on another RC forum site.



Default how deep are you into this hobby??
A. Every leap year.

B. Once in a blue moon.

C. When i get a chance.

D. All my free time.

E. Makes you wife angry

F. Drains your bank account.

G. Divorce and mental ward

I am somewhere between D and F. I have almost no more room in my "computer room" upstairs for any more cars or trucks. I have trucks and bodies all over the garage. My wife wants to know where all the $$$ went that I put into my checking account that is attached to my Paypal account. She has never seen my paypal statement (if she does, I will probably move to default "G"! And I don't think she knows about the Bill me later program on ebay that is hooked up with paypal. And I have to try to get the mail before she does cause I have 2 engines and Revo shock parts coming. Doesn't include the starter box, receivers, and glow plug ignitor I'm about to order or the 5 sets of pistons and sleeves I'm about to send out to resize.
 
I would have to say A.... because
unemployed and had to sell most only have my FG ,.15max converted to 3.3,
associated MgT , XTM mamouth, hpi rs4 and an electric shumacher MI2

Only one running atm is the max next will be the XTM then the mgt and fg all just need little things, Pullstart, RX resize P/S all cheap fixes but not cheap enough when unemployed for a year now.

If i was working it would Be F OR G
 
I'm a C! I was an E until I got a G! now my daughter take all my D!
 
i got a Divorce, but my RCs keep me sane. but my very good RC shop went out of business.
 
C but if I wasn't disabled and able to work more I'm sure it would be F. Money is the only thing that keeps me from D.
 
I'd have to go with C, every few months they collect dust for a bit lol
 
It kinda comes and goes with me. I'll get the urge, and break out the cars or helis for a while and drive / fly every couple of days. Then I'll go through a phase where I won't even touch them for a weeks at a time. I haven't done anything RC related in over a month at this point. Too dang hot outside, and it's riding season anyways.
 
I am C&E, if I were single, 18 years old livin with momma, it would be F for sure...

I would say I'm about 5-6k in..
 
I'm D&F typically although sometimes I do go through burnout phases where I'm just sick of looking at them every day. but even when I'm going through a burn out phase i dont stop buying stuff lol. I'm not really E though, fortunately I have a cool wife :)

Hey thanks for your post man...my family thought i was bad...il just show them your post and they will understand when i say "theres always room for more" lol

nice collection tho man :first_place:
 
C E F I usually run about twice a week which is my free time. I have a fleet of ten and ever since I bought my baja the wife isn't totally pissed but shes getting there. I really don't see a need for more but of I were to get one more, it would an mcd rally. I've kinda cut back a bit on rc since I'm playing golf more than I used to. That also is frowned upon so i can't win.
 
D, E if i was still married and F for sure. I guess since i am divorced and mental G as well, but the hobby didnt cause the divorces but the divorces have played a huge part in making me Mental!!!
