No nap available to me. I have to be at the bar in an hour to support a show. I'm only there 'just in case', but still... kinda tiring. At least my Sunday chores are finished.

I work for the owners. Live music, and I helped build all of the audio and lighting. Sometimes I'm there to keep an eye on things and maybe provide input for improvement.

it just hit me that it's 5 days until Halloween and i haven't seen The Crow yet. normally it's on TV like 5 times about this time of year. kinda pissed off that i haven't seen it yet.
i really should just break down and buy the DVD/blu ray. then i won't have this problem

Saturday nights for me involve a quick 5, or 10 minute watching of Pennsylvania Polka. The wife and I get our laughs on, and then switch channels. When the Alex Meixner Band appeared on PBS polka show...just a hooting good time. Full blown LMAO; tears coming outta my eyes, for practically an hour. Not knowing the Hormel Pepperoni guys name, I just thought, "Hey, that dude looks like the Hormel Pepperoni guy. Very entertaining.

Hormel Pepperoni "Dude"...Alex Meixner

Hormel Pepperoni "Dude" should get together with

Greetings folks! Just wanted to stop by and introduce myself. I've been lurking on the forum for the past month absorbing as much information as I can about RC Tanks. Been looking at joining the ranks soon with my first 1/16th scale tank. Just scrounging up the last of the funds I need and waiting for my tank to come back in stock on Amazon. I want to thank everyone for the loads and loads of information collected here and admire everyone for their awesome customization and modification jobs too. I'm sure you'll see me around more often with questions (of course, those that can't be answered by searching the forums first). Take care!

Welcome aboard. I don't know much about RC tanks, but I do know I loved tanks a lot when growing up as a kid. I used to pretend the apple orchard beside my house was a tank battalion. I had certain trees (imaginary tanks) that were my favorite to climb on. I would command my battalion into Cobra's secret desert compound .

bummer. is your collection really that big? i mean hell iv got probably 20 cars and 5 boxes of stuff to go along with them, i can fit everything on a 36wide by 18deep by 72high free standing shelving unit. and if i organized it id have room to spare.
on a good note though, the forums seems to be getting a decent amount of actual tech type questions lately.

damn, i see at least 3 truggy's. 2 1/8 buggies. a little large to have redundancy.
bonus points for the mini cooper and what looks like the front end of a blackfoot.
i bet it would be half the size if you organized it

Almost every box has a car in it so even if I straightened it out it would still be too much.
