Quick question. I just started with cars in september and after doing research on here to get an idea of what I wanted I noticed that many people have several of the same car. I know its probably a stupid question but would somebody mind answering. Oh yeah and what do you do with 21 cars just collect them or do you actually use all of them? No disrespect to anyone.

RE: how many RC's do you own?
I only have two hobby grade RCs right now:
Tamiya Subaru Brat - w/ Sport tuned, full ball bearings, and Frog CVD upgrade.
Tamiya TamTech-Gear The Frog (GB-01) - w/ GB-01 bumper kit.
in the parts/accessories department, i have:
LRP ESC that i can't stand because it has an intolerable reverse delay. [:@]
Tower 2TXP Tx
Tamiya Expec SP Tx
MRC Super Brain 960
Tower 420 "old school" timer charger
in the toy department, i have:
15 year old Tyco mini Typhoon hovercraft - broken, lost prop blade when it sucked in some debris.
"Fast Lane Super Slicks Mini RC" Subaru Impreza - bought about 5 years ago to annoy my dog runs but not well due to dog hair bound up in non-removable axles.
"Power Truck" (lol) - a $15 toy i bought to see if i'd enjoy RC rather than dropping $150 on something that would sit in my closet.

RE: how many RC's do you own?
Now let me see, a HBX Bonzer, a HBX touring car, a spare HBX Bonzer, a nitro cigarette boat, a sport 40 nitro boat, two twin engine elec boats, a Lama 4 heli, a Walkera 60B heli, a Hurricane 550 heli, all of this adds up to I think 7 transmitters one of my employees told me the other day, thank goodness for model matching TX RX, I can just imagine a heli landing in the water and a boat trying to fly and a car trying to do only goodness knows what.
