Coming clean with you about my addiction

  • Back in the summer I did an RC car video, almost as a joke. Well, a few companies sent me some real nice cars, and they got me hooked. Now, I'm a full blown RC hobbyist. I get to be a beginner at something again.

    It feels good to come clean. This has really helped me get my mind off the nerve pain during my recovery. If you follow me on Instagram you know this pain may last up to a year, and that I have to take a lot of medicine and go to a lot of doctor's appointments. We think some of my nerves were damaged during an injection after the surgery, and nerves heal slow. The second I can get back on a bike, I will. Until then we can drive RC's, fix bikes, and watch my friends ride bikes!

    Welcome to the addiction. I started back when I was 13 or 14. Gave it up for 10 years after my dad and brother passed away 24 hrs apart. They were my RC partners… then picked it back up during a back injury. Helped me heal mentally and physically. It’s a blast!

    It makes me really happy that you're enjoying the RC bug! The RC community is top-notch. I started out as a 12 year old kid riding my bike into the hobby shop after school almost every day and they made it attainable for me to get super deep into it (letting us loiter there / setting us up with old vehicles , parts, etc. / and always helping us out). It also taught me how to use tools, solder, program electronics and gave me the passion to care about school and pursue engineering. The hobby shop folks also happened to be bikers, so that's eventually how I found MTB too. Rock on Seth!

    Welcome to the family of RC scaled adventures!! Nice work!! I’ve built a similar indoor track of my own for my kids and I. We also have the addiction for these amazing RC trail/rock climbing vehicles as well. You said it best that until you actually see it and do it yourself it’s hard to explain how much fun it truly is and to try and see if these RC’s can do crazy obstacles. It’s almost therapeutic in so many ways for me. When I’m filming our videos with the family or just my son and I we have so much fun together and it brings smiles to our faces. It’s almost built an eBay and Amazon addiction as well customizing these rigs to whatever your heart desires. I used to build cars and trucks for a living and in a way this gives me so much freedom and pleasure to feel so close to the real thing mind you on a much smaller scale. No matter how the day has been or if my kids are having a down day we can always get the RC’s out and bash or crawl and for those few hours those problems or issues seem to fade away while having so much fun together. Keep it up and thanks for the great material!!!

    I've never seen one of your video's before but stumbled upon this video through recommendations. Loved it! You are right. Most people think of RC cars as childish. I've been attracted to radio controlled stuff since I was a kid, occasionally getting a car from the toy store. When I was 17, I worked at the supermarket and got enough money to buy my own first car from the hobby store. Immediately I was hooked. Now, almost 14 years later, I'm still into it. There's also so much to discover: I started with bashing, moving on to racing competitively. When I got bored, I started flying using planes and helicopters, later drones. At the moment, I'm more into scaling and crawling.
    It's an awesome hobby! :)

      Funniest hissy fit I ever saw was a kid who was sponsored turn up at our local club.
      He thinks he's the biggest thing going, I mean he was, he was fooking massive :D
      Deal is after you race you marshal the next, turn over the cars that crash ect.
      That's not good enough for slim.
      He crashes and screams! for daddy to turn his car over. Poor guy who went to do it, who was stood right there, gets a stream of abuse about touching his car while daddy hops and skips around the track to get to the stricken car.
      Of course none of us bother to get his car next time which has him hemorrhaging time and makes him even angrier then crash more.
      Despite all of his sponsored top class gear he wasn't any quicker than the best of us so of course had his arse handed to him. Don't think he ever came back.
      Oh we did have a regular who used to throw his car across the track back towards the pits if he had a bad race, which just made it worse.
      My theory, add carbon to any hobby and it attracts the assholes.

I bought an scx24 and I've been hooked ever since. I fully upgraded my truck, and built a belly dragger comp truck with the spare parts and a new chassis. Now I'm thinking about buying another truck to do a different build. Thanks for getting me back into crawlers man, I genuinely enjoy it!

And now I stumble on your video and find that you're into RC too! Haha. That's great.
