Old farts Club 40+ yrs old - 02.26.2009, 11:48 AM

I know I am part of this being 45 and I know I am not the only one here....You know your getting older when it seems like you are either forgeting somebodys name or your going to the bathroom.....

Uh Oh, I wouldn't call 40 old farts just yet (feels like sometimes). Of course I hear it sometimes at 46 from the wife, but she just turned 40 so she can't give me as much crap anymore.

42 Here! I never felt older than 27 until this past year....now with work and personal demands mounting I'm feeling my age and then some. Grrrr.

RC helps take the edge off though! Here's my latest project, a Brushless CRT.5....more mods forthcoming!


btw....for those wondering....I'm the senior moderator for RCBros and opted to use a RCBros CRT.5 Brushless Conversion Kit to promote the kit. Of course RC-M provided the heatsink/motor clamp, pinions & shaft adaptor, Mamba Max ESC, and Feigao 7S motor.

Nice conversion! That's a REALLY long antenna though; I can't see the end of it in any of the pics!

4 more years for me. I feel 50+ though and have since my early twenties when a car decided to not stop at a red light and hit me doing 60 mph.

So if feeling 40+ counts I'm in! ha!

No doubt playing with our "toys" can help to feel younger.

Cheeky young rascal I'll stop now before I do get whipped


I like it.......I LIKE IT ALOT!!!!!!
