You might be an RC addict if:

1- You don't have gas for your real car but you'll be darned if you ever run out of nitro for your RC car.

2- You make more trips to the hobby shop than most people brush their teeth in a day.

3- You have a small house for your RC's but not your dog.

4- You go to the hobby shop to buy a part and the shop owner stops you at the door and turns you away because your wife was just there and threatened to burn down his shop if he lets you in again.

5- You sit around all day waiting for the UPS guy to deliver your Tower Hobbies shipment, neglecting to pick up your kids, throw out the trash, etc.

6- You can't walk as fast as someone else you are tempted to ask them what their set-up is.

7- You havent driven in a few days and you develop a nervous twitch and start making engine noices by yourself in the corner.

8- You dont want to go anywhere cause you'll miss your RC's to much.

9- You don't have enough money to pay for car insurance but are saving up for a new T-Maxx.

10- You sniff your engine's exhaust pipe to remember what the fumes smell like.

11- You know the date and time that you bought all your cars but can't think of where or when you meet your wife.

12- Your wife asks if she could borrow the blanket covering your Losi because she's cold.
 
13- You wake up in the middle of the night screaming "flip it over I have to win this to advance"
 
I'm not sure this would make it on a list but....... I'm taking Chantix to quit smoking, which causes very vivid dreams for most people.

I woke up the other morning and told my wife about how I chased down and killed all the zombies in my dream with my RC. She asked how the heck can an RC kill a zombie..... well, it had a kind of battering ram/spear mounted on the front and it would hit the zombies in the heart and kill them.... duh! Geez, women I swear. :LoL:

14- you find yourself trying to use the handle of your fork for the trigger and the spoon as the steering, trying to drive your mashed potatoes into your mouth

thats crazy. i dreamed 2 nights ago that i finally got the battery trays in for my esavage and when i went to install them i was missing 4 chassis screws and i was panicking. I actually woke up from it and couldn't go back to sleep. i went to the kitchen, grabbed the tea pitcher and started drinkin. (yes i drink from the pitcher) I was halfway asleep and apparently so was my mouth. I got about 2 cups of freezing cold iced tea across my chest. :LoL:
 
I'm almost speechless. It's hard to believe that women don't even understand something THAT basic. Sheeeeeesh.

Rolex speechless? Oh come on, I at the very least expected a cheesy joke. You sure your feeling ok Rolex?
 
That doesn't make sense! You have to take out a zombie's head, to kill it. Talk about a messed up dream. :P

When I woke up that morning I was thinking the same thing, it should have been a scythe and I could have lopped off their heads. =devil
