Wow, has it really been that long since I've been around here?
So I had some time to kill and ended up stopping at a local hobby shop. It's been awhile. Picked up one of those micro T's (meh), and a cheapo heli that just sorta goes up and down (still really fun). And I got to thinking of my neglected rc's and my pals of the past and the forums. Nice to see it's all still alive and kicking.
As is my own forums (zx6e.net). Just got back a month ago from our second anual Deals Gap trip, which besides a few non life threatening wrecks, was a complete success yet again.
I have been mostly working (back wrenching on cars, BLEH!) and riding when I find time. I've still been doing a bunch of online gaming even though the games have changed of course
I've done quite a few track days on my sportbike. It's an amazing hobby but is expensive (and I thought RC was?!) and potentially dangerous, as my bro found out when he high sided and broke his leg. (nevermind the EXTENSIVE damage to his bike). But it really is amazing to go out there and improve more than you ever thought possible. And the pure joy and delight in finally dragging your knee through the corners like the big boys do (especially on a bike as heavy and outdated as mine).
But anyways, for the most part, all is well. and I've really thought about working on my old vehicles and taking them out for a spin, especially the 540 micro which really just needs a new turnbuckle installed and to be charged up. Should be ready to go. I still never sold that damned Fusion either.
Take care folks. I'd love to hear back from the OG's here who are still around.
