Also just picked up a new job which is apparently going to give me a poop-ton of hours to work. Anyone else go to work thinking "I am here so I can buy RC parts on friday"??

What the landlord doesn't know, won't hurt her. Hell, if you bring your ass up here this spring, you can show me up all you want. Just don't expect to leave with all your "stuff"

I wish I could get my 5T sooner so I could enjoy playing in the snow unlike my Flux. I could if I wasn't going to Vegas next month but priorities are priorities....

That's what we've been telling you on HBF for months! You threatening to steal my "stuff" or something? I already had 1 R/C stolen, not looking forward to getting another one lifted. I'll try to get about half a dozen of them in running order, that way it'll take me at least an hour to break them all to the point they can't be driven anymore and I have to drive 4 hours home

Watch out for snow and water with the 5T, the radio box is sprinkle-resistant but that's about it and the throttle servo gets wet very quick. I have run my Baja in the snow a few times and each time it lasts about 5 minutes before the throttle servo tweaks out (and I still don't have a killswitch ). Screw Vegas, you'll just lose a bunch of money and a kidney You could invest that money in a T and some goodies!

Ohh come on, nobody wins big in Vegas....Gambling as a whole is just a money pit. The only people I know that routinely win lots of money gambling spend a ton more than what they won in order to get it. I just lost $25 tonight on video Keno, it's just a waste (and boring!) You get much more fun for your money out of an R/C.

I agree with you about R/C being much more fun, but we have won every time we have gone to Vegas in the last 5 years. We win just enough to pay for the trip and then we quit. AND we only play the slot machines. We spend the rest fo the time going to the shows and just enjoying the atmosphere of Vegas. We went there during the summer holidays and spend time in the spa getting massages, and we saw the Terry Vator show, the George Wallace show, the Donnie & Marrie show and we won just over $3K on the slots. So we broke even once again. If you get greedy you will lose for sure. The best part is that the US Gov paid for our travel to and from for our annual R&R leave from Korea. When we got back there were three boxes of R/C stuff waiting for me.


SUPERMAXX YOUR LIFE.
