I currenlty have all six of my RC cars, Losi Ten T, XXX-SCB, and all 4 of my Traxxas 1/16th models next to my side of the bed in our bedroom. My wife is getting upset about them being in our bedroom; she says they don't go with the decor!!!!???? She wants me to put them in the cold, lonely garage. Nope, I need to have my "babies" next to me. Who knows, I may be sleeping in the garage soon!

Years ago I was gluing up a set of tires on the kitchen table (NEW table). Glue up one side, flip them over and glue up the other side..it was late..went to bed and the next morning I had a set of tires glued to the NEW kitchen table..f ing ruined the table..$1700 later..
..that killed my RC budget for a few months..and to this day my EX still throws that one up in my face..

I was dying some wheels black, and found an old hat to throw in the pot as well. Since the hat was never washed and a few years old, once dropped into the RIT dye/boiling water, it let out a smell of unholy stinkness that engulfed my little condo. The dye itself has kind of putrid smell to it anyways.

I had a bright idea to clean all the parts on my slash. While I had it apart I decided to put it in the dishwasher(that will get it real clean). Execpt for the dyed red tires I put in there too, which dyed the inside of my dishwasher pink.

ok for you old timers here! Back in the day before modern ESC they had wiper type speed control that was hooked up to a servo. well I was running my Tamiya Falcon out in the front yard and the speedo plates welded themselves together WFO. I saved my car by running into my GF ankle! I was worried about the car..

You guys are too much lol... Here is one for you; I left a gallon of nitro sitting on the shelving unit in the garage. Then I had to run to the store, as I'm coming back I see the EX on top of her F150 scrubbing the shiit out of the windshield...I asked what are you doing, she says I filled my windshield washer fluid but it's all greasy....no more need to be said.
