Just thinking about it I've spent almost $700 on rc.

How much have you?

I have probably spent $700-$800 Total not including the Micro I sold. I took a beating on that.

Don't be surprised to see numbers up-wards of $5000 total Maybe more.

I'm probably in the $1500 area. I have a Maxx, a GT and an RS4 3. So that keeps me busy buying parts.
 
I don't wanna know.

I did create a 'nitro' category under 'recreation' in Quicken, so the answer's there.

Some things are better left unsaid. I know I could tally it all up but I'd probably cry.

I'll put it this way, my last year playing paintball I shelled out over $10,000 and this was not including the perks I got from being sponsored.

I would cry too if you asked me to tally up my guitar collection, Gun Collection and computer collection. Can you say down payment on a house! :madface:
 
after the first 10 years i quit keeping count!:whhooo: i miss the days when dad foot the bill!! LOL
 
Between my rc and computer hobby I am certainly sure I would cry if I actually knew the exact amount. I would easily say I have spent around $2500 over several years.
 
I think i'm in the $1500-$2000 since I got into r/c cars about 4 years ago.


About a month ago, I spend $500 on my ntc3.
 
Started RCing in 1983.
In the twenty years it would be safe to that we have spent close to $75,000 + on the hobby. At the height we had a collection of 36 Nitro powered cars, trucks and buggies and all of the support eq that went with them. Then I have gaven away many Electric powered RC models to kids that could not afford them.

It is funny that with all of the junk that we had collected over the years. What we have left is sitting in a large shoe box. We have given just about everything away.
The hobby was good for us and we attemted to make it good for everyone that we met over the years. But I do not miss it as much as I thought I would when we gave it up.
 
I hate that question...... None of yer damn business.....lol

Ah.............. No seriously, I'm about in it for $200 myself... "cough"
