How do you know you are way too far into R/C?

[newnitrofan]

I have to say today for me it was when I looked down at my touch screen phone and found a decent sized dollup of CA Glue on my touch screen phone. What's your story? Well lets not say findin nitro in your underpants this is a family forum after all

I've got pics of my rc's on my phones wallpaper, my computer's wallpaper, and 4 saved searches on E-bay for RC stuff.

I've got an ebay "won list" totalling over 1000 usd in the last 30 days, just for parts and one mini lst2. Pics on my phone, desktop, facebook, dash of car and toolbox at work....LOL.

My wife is lucky my RC can't cook.

Probably when I got a tabletop photo studio specifically to catalog my r/c projects.

My name is Josh, and I am an r/c NERD. :shrug:

Maybe when on your computer, you have about 100 bookmarks for Safari, and like 95 of them are R/C websites for trucks, parts, etc.. Or you got your first truck in March 09'..and now have a stock of 4.... And you spend like 2 hours everyday on RCNT...Am I a nerd or what!!??

When I realized that my RC trucks are worth more than my 1:1 truck.

My name is Charles and I'm an RC Addict......

when the first thing i do in the morning when i get up, i get on RCNT and after that i go an "tinker" around with my rigs just trying to find something to do, i have 100+ pages of just RC stuff bookmarked on my computer, i have an RC background on my computer, rc pics i have printed out and hung them up in my workshop, i turned my shed into an RC workshop complete with a magnifying worklight, Traxxas, Spektrum, OFNA and various hobby shop stickers on the window of my car and a revo thats worth more than my car.

[newnitrofan]

Ok I'm going to say that some of you guys have me beat. However I totally just turned a spare bedroom into my rc workshop and made a special trip to lowes and wal mart to do it. I still can't believe I got CA Glue on my darn phone.

It started off as something fun to do on the weekends with friends. I promised myself it would not go past that. Then I notice I would do just a little during the week....you know to relax and relieve a little stress. It was not too expensive at first then I noticed I was doing it more by myself then with my friends. It was like I was trying to hide it. Before you know it I am up at 2 in the morning doing doughnuts in the garage with the Jato and the cops are knocking on the door.....
My name is Joe and I am addicted to Nitro.....please don't judge me

 

[MR4X4KING]

Yeah... you know it's bad when you go from "junkie" to having aspirations to being a "pusher"... lol!

Well, I've used my RC tools to fix many things around the house. Self tapping screws to hang under cabinet lights for my wife, 3mm metric bolts/nuts to re-install a shelf brace my wife busted in the refrigerator, soldering tools to rewire my car stereo, charger for my camera batteries... New camera for taking vids/photo's of RC's, complete work bench/shelves/tools just for RC purposes...

Hello, I'm an addict with no signs of recovery. Please sell your hopes and dreams to someone else as mine are already spoken for!

I like the way you put that

 

[newnitrofan]

Found myself loading up the fleet today to go bash them all at the lhs it started raining. Ya know it's bad when it takes you like 30 minutes just to get ready to go to the lhs to go bash something. Got up there and it was sprinkling pretty good. Thought I would go get something to eat and try to wait it out. yeah no such luck. yeah I might be an addict.

How do you know you are way too far into R/C?

When your back up supplies of cleaners and waxes far exceed your food supply.

 

[Racer 1966]

It's bad when every time you see a big dirt pile somewhere, you say out loud "oooh,I'd like to run my Savage on that" My wife says she doesn't have to worry about other women,just look out for the dirt piles!

 

[slowngreen]

I think you know you are too far into rc's if the inside of your garage looks like Robmobs!

 

[bergoff]

well i just got back into rc and I'm hooked. only $500 into it so far. but when my wife is yelling at me that i'm on here on new years eve i know that i have a problem. but my son is getting hooked at the age of 5 so its going to be a great summer.
