Well, I thought I was going better, as the car collection is shrinking. Problem is, the heli collection is growing, and they cost more. How did this happen, who's responsible for this? :D
 
I traded the Blitz for another XXX-SCT for my son to race, and I picked up an Associated B4 (B4.1 maybe) buggy to race.
 
My heard with me has shunk...most of mine are in storage. So what I have on hand is a fairly small stable. I hate moving...lol
 
I'm weird. I've never been happier with only two rc's. The ultima or optima, whatever the hell it is and my custom(hack) 4x4 pede. I finally have what I wanted as a ten year old. For once there isn't a rc on my wish list. Just parts to keep my vintage kyosho going. Because I drive it like it's 1988. Only on 11 volts and brushless power. If I ever get it opened up all the way I may end up in 1988. It's that wrong.
 
I'm also an addict. I've gotten back in the hobby in august of 2010 and since then I've acquired the following
AE tc4
Savage XL
MGT 8.0
Hpi baja 5sc.

Plus I've purchased an os 18 and countless parts and tools along with a new venom charger. On top of the above I have the following

Tmaxx first gen
Hpi nitro rs42
Rc10gt team version
GS storm
Duratrax evader
Since I do so much rc now and not much of anything else, I'm getting back into playing golf. There goes another addiction. I now have to sit down because I'm starting to shake. LOL
 
I'm also planning on buying a Losi 22 buggy for racing, but likely not before tax time.
 
Addict? I'm not an addict! You guys are the ones with a problem not me! I can quit anytime I want too, really I can, I swear I can. Why are you all looking at me like you don't believe me! Stop it! Stop staring at me like that!
 
Damn I'm not keeping up with the Jones's at all!

Hello, my name is Dixon Buttes. I have spent most of my money in upgrades the past 2 years.

This year I also bought the parts to build my erbe and did it for about 250 including the body and wheels/tires.

I took the mmm and 2.4 off my embe and made that brushed. The embe showed up on my porch last christmas eve while we were at her family's X-mas party. Lucky for me I had to take our new puppy home and intercepted the package! This was 2 months after the XXL showed up and she said "another rc car?!" in a snotty voice.

Fortunately, she does accept the fact that I'm not blowing coke up my nose or smoking weed etc.;) More to come in the year ahead!

Almost bought a TLR 22 buggy last weekend, would have been money that I don't have to spend though. I had to decline after some deep thought.
 
Everybody is adding to their collection and I've been getting rid of mine. :shrug:

Part of me would love to do an F1 car and try to get that class going at the local track.
