How often do you...
...put in half a tank of gas and go out in your front yard and rip it up for 5 or 10 minutes then go back in feeling all fuzzy inside??

I can do that many times with my baja on a single tank of gas. When ever im bored i just go outside for like 15 mins and just rip all through the yard making lots of noise. Makes the neighbors mad (which is also my goal)

Are you sure it's not from the fumes. You do know that nitro fumes are bad for your health right?
I gotta go do that sometimes. I haven't started my cars up yet this spring for a good bash session. Other hobbies and priorities are higher now.

Never really done that, though i have taken the car out and only got through half a tank before i broke something or something wasnt working right. Then its back home, and i definetly dont have that warm fuzzy feeling.

I also only run a half a tank if something breaks, otherwise, I'm running at LEAST one full tank through. Ususally, I run a few tanks through when I'm running.

A full tank at least for a "Quikie". On the streets, parking lot, or at the park close by.
Just to get a fix. You know when its been a long time since you have not played with your RCs.

Never because I have moved on from the old school
Lipo + brushless = the real deal

Electrics are great, I have a TON of them, but their is always something to be said for the extra fun of nitro! God bless both kinds!!

I try not to run mine for less than at least 3 tanks, maybe it's because I'm lazy and don't want to be bothered with after run procedure unless it's worth it.

There is nothing better than getting home from working and ripping on a nitro. I have an awsome little set-up out back that I sometimes find myself at untill the sun goes down. I tell the wife I'll be right back and 2 1/2 hours later I'm like "I got lost" Hahaha
What a GREAT stress relief.

I do it too, but with batteries instead of tanks. (1 batt. = ~20 min.)
I usually take the extra effort to go to the other side of my subdivision where there are some trails, and I usually run at least 3 packs through.
It is a great way to unwind. I don't think of anything else while I'm doing it, and bashing is not that demanding mentally. I come home feeling pretty refreshed.
