lol "You got like three feet of air that time."

When I was 12 or so years old me and my friend were trying to soup up this powerwheels quad (cuz we were bored like you guys)
it ended up catching fire as I was pushing him down a hill. LOL the thing was like POP! then the seat started melting and before we knew it the thing was a puddle of plastic. That's how I learned NOT to hook up another battery in series with the original one. It's not designed for twice the voltage. haha

lol those videos look really fun to do! That was funny when the kid in the white shirt was always like "Oh my god!". Sometimes my friend and I went sledding and created a jump out of packed snow, man those sledding days were always fun...

[:@][:@]well my RC's are down rite now lol

well i have my white cat boat in the water (im at my cottage rite now )
and i put it in and it springs up to life , so i took 2 pictures and a realy short vid of it , cuz i am one person who has to take the vid and drive
so it runns good !
i bring it back to shore with only a tad bit of water in it.

i plug in the batterys it charges and i go out to finish cleaning the rx-8 and i come back in and the room if filled with smoke and the battery was smoking so much ! that i unpluged it and brought it out side

so great a 50 dollar battery and a charger is gone (the charges was my only good one )

so i take the little carbonfiber shovelnose and put it in the water ( and rember it is the bad 6 cell battery) and it is slow!!!!!!
so i bring it back and charge it again , yet it is still slow , so there is no point in running it ! then i bring it back to shore and a weed go cought in the prop and it wont move , so
then waves come and knock it over and it sinks so i walk in to the lake and pick it up ,the electonices are fryed so i took my motor oil and sprayed them so they get de-wet and then that boat is out of commision

so then i go and put in my sail boat in to the water and i realize that the ice that was in the middle of the lake drifted in and coverd over our bay !!!

well that is my down time story
and i have 2 boats that dont work a charger that if fryed and a sail boat that is going no where fast cuz there is ice in out lake now ![:@]
