If you had to choose only one rc to keep from all the RC you've had

I already told the wife if anything happens to me and she has to make that decision to let go of any of my stuff to list all of my R/C toys in here for sale out of respect for all of guys I have become friends with. Yea even James and Harold make that list.

I understand Gee's position perfectly. He has had a life changing event and decided to cut back on R/C for the sake of those changes. Could happen to any of us.

Jerry if my house was on the line or it was desperate time my RC cars would be one of the first things to go (all of them). I would even sell my underwear (if anyone was willing to buy it) if it meant keeping a roof over my head.

If I was only quitting the hobby there is no way I would sell my collection. Have spent way too much money on them and there is no way I would get a fraction of that back. Not to mention the time invested in modifying. Instead I would clean up my collection and stick it on the shelf or in a storage locker. I am sure one day I would pull them out for a bit of a play and remind my self of the days I was younger. I kick my self for giving away and selling my Jet Hopper and the Hornet from the younger days. I thought I would never care about RC again and 12 years later I was kicking my self for parting with them. It really wouldn't have killed me to have kept them on the shelf and today I would have two mint condition classics. I am not a hoarder but I like to keep things that have made a significant impact in my life. You can never have enough memories.
