yeah right ! lol .. ive said that many times until ive reached 10rcs and went back down to 5 now im thinking of getting another one ..man this hobby is nonstop..
anyway nice engine one of my dream engines too. but i really cant go more than 280 on an engine..the most expensive i got is $265 engine coz the freakin collari 32 needed special pipe and header ..and i also have a rex28 3ports only tho but that i got fpr a good price..

MAKE VIDEOS.

Your next purchase should be a vid cam if you don't have one - I want to see that engine running in a Nemesis..

What are you talking about it was suppose to start as one or 2 rc vehicles, and now up to around 23. Im trying to sell down, but everyone wants something for nothing. My most expensive engine 211.00 rb 323tm. Those italian nova rosi motors are awesome though. I have a genesis, love the look of the Nemesis. 2 gs storms suts, lst1 with sh.28, tnx, revo with rb323tm, savage .25 with 3spd waiting for install, mgt .21, xtm xfactor, ofna dominator with 2spd, cen mt2, rc10gt, xxxnt, nitro evader, shumacher fusion 1/10 .21, cen ct-4wrx 73 mph, ofna 9.5 mbx with pbs suspension buggy, ofna lx .21 buggy, ofna ultra gtp 1/8 benz on road, hpi mt with .15 ss, racing clutch cvec pipe and .12 ss header, rc10t4, yokomo gt4 1/10 sedan .18, hpi rs4, ofna ld3, jato.

Thats how simple it starts boys. I'll admit it Im a nitroaholic!!

The signs:

always surfing ebay for deals

all your credit card bills are rc related

always thinking whats one more rc vehicle!!!

i agree with the last one the most. i look at my bank statements for my bank card, and i see alot of hobby shops and on line hobby shops going straight down. it's so addictive. i think i need to check into nitro annonymous.

I'm up to 6 and I have almost enough parts to build another from scratch.


It really is an addiction.....for me anyway.

Blackrain, one thing i have discovered in life and that is sometimes you just have to
go for it.
I can definitely relate to you guys about r/c being addictive and those 3 points that
Silverman1 made are so true[sm=thumbup.gif]
But you know guys R/C is good clean fun, that for me personally ,is a great form
of stress relief.
As long as we act responsibly in terms of not letting it make you spend what you don't have and not letting it control all your time it can be a truly enjoyable hobby.( I hope i can learn to practice what i preach )
