[QUOTE=badger]Spending time in the garage is what I do to relax. Having ADD ID I don't really like sitting in front of the TV for long, which is also why I love RC Crawling so much. I can build and rebuild all day long and not get bored. I like to relax in the shop too, I just crank up the xm and go to work, but before I know it, it is 12 or 1 am and time to go to bed, damn I wish I had more time. Here is what I spend most of my time on, when not working on the rc crawlers. |

Your garage is bigger than my house. I would love to hate you at this point, but I am too busy drooling over your garage to bother. That is sweet man. Next time I drive through Montana, I am sneaking a peek at that place. You mentioned the acreage you have that you built a rock crawl area behind the shop. With floor space like that, you could have a waterfall and creek bed through the shop and still have room for that Helicopter you are saving up for to put in there. -Sam | |

Oh by the way (Waaaaaaaay off topic), what model is that? 416? Does it also run the same motor as the old 1962 404s with the neck snapping 90hp diesels? -Sam |

Heli ? no thanks, too busy with 1:1 4x's and rc crawlers. Yes that is a 72' 416 doka, om352 diesel 140hp with an 8 speed tranny, way past the old 404's, that is what I started with many years ago. This truck will go 72 mph down the road and haul 12,000 lbs easy. You are always welcome in the shop, RCC guys have an open door from me. | |

You know I feel like a RC ping pong ball. I have so many projects, I am not complaining I love them. RC alone 70+ boats, Sprint cars, Late model dirt Oval car, T3 dirt Oval project truck, several off road trucks and buggies, Scale pajero rig, TLT tuber, Clod something, TXT unlimited, Of course the RBX and a coupla of on road Yokomo's. Then there is the 1 to 1 stuff three projects (69 Mustang Grande, 1970 Boss clone and a 1971 SS 454 Elcamino) the daily driver 1979 2WD blazer and the rolling getto (funky motor home). Add on to that the normal house up keep and running my business. I am always working on something or another. I dream of being able to build a 12 X 40 garage on the side of my house someday. But none of them are as clean as the garage you have. :-) | |

Thanks Randy, It has been truly a labor of love and a pile of $, but I think the end result was a amazing workspace and play place too. | |
