I think I'm going to need to get a storage room. I need someplace to live. My apartment is full of RC stuff.
 
Please keep calm. This is your realization phaze. I will be all OK and you will get through it. I too am a member of the RCA and currently have over 60 in the fleet. Don't worry GrassHopper it will totally consume you and in due time you will grow to be an RC Jedi as well. Just be patient and continue to accumilate them. Good Luck and Go In Peace.

Welcome to the meeting. My name is Rolex and I'm also an addict.
This is an unusual addiction, in that there is really no cure. We can only meet to discuss our latest fix and find resources for scoring another at less than street prices.
 
I am now a member to about 3 other daily meetings for that reason right there^^^!!! lol
 
From trucks, to tools for my trucks, my LHS told me a few months ago that in about 8 months we spent a little over $3000.. My dad was in shock!

Dang Bill, that's A LOT of stuff in only 8 months :) Nice collection :thumbup:

From trucks, to tools for my trucks, my LHS told me a few months ago that in about 8 months we spent a little over $3000.. My dad was in shock!

I budget $200/mo. as "hobby money". Plus any OT I might bring in as well unless I'm working A LOT like right now when I budget a large portion of my overtime to house projects. I still make out pretty well though. I've probably spent about $800 in the last 3 months getting equipped for on-road racing and I'll probably spend another c-note over the following 2 months with all the OT I'm working... AND that's also putting wood floors down in two large rooms in our house, at least that's the plan.

The hard part is deciding what my next racer will be..? *sigh*
