Boy is my wife mad at me!
Yesterday I replaced some steering components in my electric buggy and went up one tooth on my pinion, I was working on my car in our kitchen and wanted to test out the front end alignment so I set my buggy down on our kitchen floor and proceeded to make my adjustments. Just has I was getting done and happy with the alignment my son and his huge Ass dog came home and the buggy was now in our family room with white carpet. The dog has ran after my buggy on a few occations and he thinks it's a play toy. "Come to think of it so do I" Well when I saw the dog make a bee line towards the car, not thinking I floored the throttle to make my get away. The buggy proceeded to lay down four huge black marks in the carpet for about two feet then it pulled the front end off the ground hit a small coffee table knocking over a glass flower arrangement of my wifes
Note to self: 1/8th scale Buggy, 1400kv, 6 Cell Thunder Power battery don't mix in the house.
Laugh away.... Have a good weekend everyone....

My 6 year old spilt an entire bottle of bleach on our carpet last week. Best part was he was trying to clean it up with mommy's clothes.
My R/C is the least of her worries.

I have 6" x 12" section on my deck that's been metallic blue for 2 years now. I started painting inside after that.

I was dying some wheels red back in the day for my Revo. As I was taking the bin full of dye out of the kitchen, the dog decided to run past me. The carpet looked like a murder scene.
Good thing it was just the appt and not the house....lol

I spilled some buggy grip in my workshop in the basement (right under our bedroom). Gave her a good headache.
A week later I wanted to bake some tires off the rims. when I asked her permission she said "As long as you don't use that other stuff in the house you can do whatever you want".
Yay me.
This will last a looong time.

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..
