I figured it was about time to bring this thread back to life by stating yet another thing that has me slightly pi$$ed off.

RC'ing by yourself!!! I had a few freinds that caught the RC bug but now they have sold their cars to fund their various other projects they have going on so now I'm back to square one .My one freind is hooked for sure but he is selling his buggy to fix his real car but he swears that he will buy another RC soon.The other two are out for good So now I'm back to bashing by myself and showing off for the neighbor kids LOL

Man,...I just read about your real car Rex,thats horrible.Good thing it wasn't anything more than a Neon though..never pictured you drivin one of those,lol.I most certainly wouldn't EVER let her drive anything that had anything to do with me again.

I had one friend get a car at the same time but he spent about twice as much ($700) and now he regrets it.He always says he wants to go run but I'll call and its either too early,his girlfriend won't let him,or something...so I quit asking him to go.I went Sunday by myself to a crappy lil parking lot(I don't have any good places to go) and ran through a tank and a half before I packed it up because of after effects of a crash with a curb.Something interfered with my radio or something and it headed right for the curb,now why is it it can never head for a clear area when that happens.I've never had a problem with that but its been glitchy the last 3 times,guess I'll try a failsafe.

Well the number one thing that is pissing me off right now is my damn motor shifting while racing and it eating my clutch bell up. Damn inferno RTR comes w/o a engine mount and to top it off has phillips screws holding it in place. Another thing that pisses me off is getting out to the track and getting everything read to run and tuned right and then right befour the main race it drops in temp and not having the right plug. Now that will piss you off. Another one i just thought of is people going to a race with just one damn frequency so they make everybody else jumble around and **** to suit there cheap ass.

The one thing that pissed me off last race is that it was 20 bucks for a TC3 arm at the track.
I soldered mine back to getther using a ziptie as solder.

I NOW get to add something to this!!

What pisses me off, is that people actually think Zip ties on the head prevent it from breaking!! Hello??? what are you SMOKING because i want some.... i am sick of it... why is everyone SOOOO concerned with the heat sink heads!!! man, you look at some peoples trucks and cars, and they are TRASH... but he has to have those zip ties!!! ZIP TIES DO NOTHING!! i don't care what people say, i have had MANY MANY cars and trucks, and i NEVER put stupid Zip ties on them... i don't need to look like a goof. So what if i get a couple of scratches on my heat sink head, it doesn't decrease my cooling, all it does, is have scratches, and matches the rest of the truck!!
