Default Are You a Monster Truck Junky????

I was wondering if Im the only monster truck Junky out here?

Here are some symtoms:

1) You own at least 3 monster trucks!!
2) You feel the strong urge to buy every new monster truck that comes out!!
3) You hide your new truck when it comes in and sneak it down into your work are, and blend it in with existing trucks!!!
4) You want to fix all minor weaknesses, bigger is always better motor wise!
5) All most all your bills are rc truck related!
6) When a new monster Truck comes out you get the shakes and feel a strong urge to buy it!!

Yes Im a monster truck junky!!!


HELP!!!!!!!![X(][X(][X(]

ditto. I have 1 MT, have another in the mail coming, and am planning on building an MT crawler custom ASAP. (need money lol) Everything else applies! We should make a club or something lol! You also know your an MT junky when you have one for offroad racing, one for onroad racing, one for bashing, one for crawling, and one for every other occasion that may arise! (ok so I dont YET, but soon enough!) MT's are the best in my opinion because they can do everything. They can race on road like a street car, race off road like a buggy/stadium truck, and then can go over big stuff like neither of the other two can!

I have pretty much all the symptoms except I don't always want the next greatest truck when it comes out... I do however always think about mt's and ways to make them faster and stronger....
current arsenal..... Cen MT2
T-Maxx
Kyosho usa-1 nitro crusher
Rustler electric
kyosho buggy

at some point I will get another new truck... right now its between cen genesis and traxxas revo.....

Hi, my name is Doug and Im a Nitroholic.. Ive been buying for about for years, and finding myself on the internet doing nothing but surfing for modified parts and closeout prices on more r/c's. Im ashamed to say I dont allow my kids to look, breathe on, nor touch them because there are all MINE! I find myself waking up surrounded by RCDriver magazines on my bed with yellow post-its with footnotes on what I would like on that particular page. Please, if theres a R/C God help me, lol

1) You own at least 3 monster trucks!!
Check.

2) You feel the strong urge to buy every new monster truck that comes out!!
Thats why I have three.

3) You hide your new truck when it comes in and sneak it down into your work are, and blend it in with existing trucks!!!
Do one step better, paint them all the same color.

4) You want to fix all minor weaknesses, bigger is always better motor wise!
Biggest motor that fits stays. Sell away all others.

5) All most all your bills are rc truck related!
Always seem to be paying a credit card bill, never a month without one saying "RCBoyz" or "Hobbyguyrc"...

6) When a new monster Truck comes out you get the shakes and feel a strong urge to buy it!!
Dont leave me in the LHS alone...

I have most of these, but only one R/C truck so it'll be kinda hard to make the next one blend in. But I do that with parts I order though.

I have 4 monster trucks sitting out on the sun porch, the lst, savage, revo, & x factor. I put all mip drive train in the LST, alum diff cases. I have a SH .28 coming in the mail, and never run it yet. I got the mgt down stairs, a dominator, to sut storm truggies, cen mt, tnx, a bunch of tourimg cars, stadium trucks, and 2 buggies. I canceled the warhead only to turn around and re-order it. All my credit card bills are almost rc related. Thats crazy!!!!!
