| You know you're addicted to RC crawlers when......
We've all had the thoughts. This is a funny way to share the thoughts and experiences. Stole this thread idea from silverfish longboarding forum. It's super fun. I'll start: You know you're addicted to RC crawlers when... You constantly are looking at rocks and hills thinking "I bet my c2 could climb that." When your daily driver pulls to the right a bit and you think "I need to adjust my steering trim." Now it's your turn! What are those little daily reminders that let you know you're addicted to RC?

....when I look at a beat up pick-up driving down the road and think, "That would look good with some JunFac 103's, a LED lightbar, a rear tire carrier, a bulldog winch, a roof rack, a nice set of BL's and some BAJA Claws. Where can I find another $1k to build it RIGHT???"

You know you're addicted when you refer to the pool table as the workbench because there hasn't been a game of pool played on it in over 2 yrs.

you know you're addicted when you see bonus checks as new projects. I.e. "I just deposited my D90 check."

About 9:00 pm you tell you're wife you are going out in the garage and she says "come to bed now and I'll make it worth your while!" ......15 minutes later you are silver soldering a bumper for your new Class 2 rig. |

You know you're addicted when your 1/10 jackstands cost more than your 1:1 jackstands. Or you spend weeks on the internet trying to find a 1/10 engine hoist and aluminum floor jack just take a picture of your RC build Or you have more money tied up in your RC crawlers than you do in your 1:1 crawler |
