Since I am currently out of the flowerhorn hobby, I have picked up RC (radio control). I have an RC18MT (monster truck) right now and am expecting my rolling ESP chassis (aluminum, old school) with a grave digger body. What do you guys have? trucks, cars, planes, helicopters, boats?

Wow, that must be some collection. I am just assuming you still have them. Or did you sell them? I dont know what any of them are, but now I have something new to look up about.

Did you know they actually make drifting RC cars now? You might even be able to get one thats ready to run, just add batteries.

Drifting cars are basically 1/10 scales nitro rc with plastic tube tires.. let me search for some video link and post it here.. they are SICK!!!

I ended up gave all my cars away (sold it for cheap) to my friends that are into RC.. most of them are PRO status now.. you should go see a national event, its crazy how fast these cars go and what the pilots can do.
