Holy crap, I have three and think it's too many.

ZippyBasher 01.09.2010 01:51 AM

And he needs about 15 Savage Xls and 13 Jato 3.3s?? 8 8ights and about 60 others? Wtf ?! If i had that much money I'd have a better place to live LOL...


PS Like this guy^^^ 3 is enough^^^

PSS... F*CK NITRO

I read all his comments. He gives 3 different stories about his income. Then at one point says he has been into r/c for 15 years, only later to say he got his first car 2 years ago. And I'm sure I'm not the only one to notice this was all shot in a basement. We can only assume it's his mom's basement. I sure hope the kudos he gets on youtube fills the hole in his life he is trying to fill. The hole normal people fill with hard work and discipline.........

sorry guys, slow night:lol:

A hobby is nice, but this guy has OCD or something. Could be one of those "hoarders" you hear about on TV where they keep EVERYTHING forever, except for this guy, it's R/Cs. And why would anyone have multiple of the same vehicle? Doesn't seem like he has them purpose built much (like one on-road specific, one off-road, etc). If I didn't know better, I'd say he had all of his friends bring their cars over to make it seem like he has more. Otherwise he's just showing off. He obviously can't run all of those. I have "only" 9 cars, and was thinking about thinning the herd.

Thank god my OCD doesn't make me do that, I can hardly keep 1 RC at a time, let alone 2 or more without constantly changing my mind. Now im once again thinking about getting a 5T or a rock crawler and selling my FLux

small weiner syndrome?:lol:

hootie7159 01.09.2010 02:48 AM

damn...i only have two and thats plenty enough for me.....one for track...one for bashing....just that simple.....it's gonna be a damn shame when he realizes that brushless will beat the s**t out of ALL of those nitros....its funny when he says, "its fast as hell"...and its only nitro... lol....

:gasp:seriously crazy:surprised:

Harold, your comments crack me up!! right on the money - too funny!!!

BP-Revo 01.09.2010 05:44 AM

Linc has like 40 doesn't he?

Shit...I have 5 now and still think that's too much...looking to bring it down to 4.

between all the scales and different types of rc's i have around 30 of them right now, thats not bad if you consider i sold 15 of them last year and have only added 4 in 2009


maybe i have a problem, but to me its a hobby, i enjoy buy,selling and trading as much as i do driving them.

since i got into the hobby in 1990 i have owned over 100 rc cars and thats alot cheaper than the real cars 53 i have owned since 1995

thankfully my Gf enjoys the real car hobby too (we own 8 real cars right now)

mistercrash 01.09.2010 09:48 AM

I didn't see many brushless RCs in his collection. The guy's a frikkin' oiler. That's what I call nitro guys.... OILERS!

JERRY2KONE 01.09.2010 10:22 AM

Sick!!!
 
SICK is all that comes to mind while watching that video. Why, how, WTF. He must have like 60 vehicles stored in that place. Even if you invited a bunch of guys over from work for a party to play he still would not use half of them. That is just freaky. I would love to have a few more myself, but that is just toooooooooo much R/C to have in anyones house. Could you imagine some kid breaking in to rob his house when he turns on the lights. He would probably pass out just from the sight of those vehicles. Your right Harold. He has a huge hole in his life and also in his head. There must be over $100K worth of R/C in that one little place. Sick, just sick.

simplechamp 01.09.2010 11:27 AM

I shouldn't make judgments, but I just wonder how many of those RC's are paid for and how many are on high interest, unsecured debt.
