I have too many :lol: I've always loved my r/cs but never really had that many, I have a few old tamiya's touring cars that I haven't touched for ages, one is pretty darn quick but I can't even remember what motor it has :lol: might have to pull it out and take it for a blast sometime soon, it used to get thrashed around skateparks and get airbourne on a regular basis :lol:

Also got my Losi MRC, haven't had this out for months either :thumbdown:

My main other hobby is BMX, I've been riding around 13-14 years and spend a lot if time working on and riding this place, can't push myself much anymore though as my knee is screwed :bawling:

My other hobby? GUITARS! I buy them and restore them and sell them on...well most of them! I seem to keep about half I buy, I just love them. Got about 15 at the moment, 13 basses, 1 electric and 1 acoustic. Guess I'm addicted :lol:

Remember this on Top Gear a few years ago?

The engine at 1:32 is one I sold to the BBC. I'd had it in two road going Lada Rivas. Very nippy :lol:

I also used to co drive in Lada Rivas years ago, hence my forum name. I now have fun in the dirt, just slower!!

i liked it too but i was disappointed when i saw it on person, not worth the money mate,
the GMADE R1 Crawler is better and cheaper.

Nice hobbies you guys have!!
