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

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

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)

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

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.


SUPERMAXX YOUR LIFE.

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.
