    Quite a few! I've got 5 in total, 3 battery ones, one 1/8 Kyosho Nitro F150 Truck (with two speed gearbox now) and 1/8th scale Nitro Buggy from a specialist shop local to where I live. Both of the nitro cars .21 engines in it and the Buggy requires me to bump start it from a slave box. The Kyosho one is a normal pull start.[/quote]


    But how many actually work?

    4 as I need a new air filter for the Kyosho! Although I have had thoughts of getting another battery one as the truck kills them far too quickly and I keep losing races to Rob's Mini!

    It's battery mate and hence me thinking of getting another battery one. The Cossie loses out because of the 4WD and that's with an uprated engine/servo. The truck is quick off the line but as you know, the top end isn't all that great! Plus, I go through about 4 batteries to Rob's one when I use that.

    You mentioned Paul was looking at another one but you didn't say which one! If he wants a wheelie truck and has a spare £350 (like we all do! yeah roight!) he should get the HPI Savage as you can buy a wheelie bar for it and the thing looks mental when it pulls away and hoists one hell of a wheelie!

    Been playing about with RC cars for a while to. Started with a Tamiya jobbie then bought a HPI nitro jobbie.

    Other than that used to practise Muay Thai but have'nt for a while now.
    Various types of programming, VB, HTML, CSS, PIC Basic/Assembly and a couple of others. With the PICs I used to do a bit with electronics, something I really need to catch up on!

    My biggest hobbie is still cars, will probably always be, mostly Hondas and Vauxhalls.....well, anything Honda really!
