Other then promoting our friend Rudolph Diesel, I rebuilt a few rigs quasi performance-wise - 72 Celica, 76 tr6, have a 79 vw camper van on my front yard (no performance with the van - 
) Also fixing my cheap ass daily driver rigs - more of a neccessity vs a hobby
Hot yoga, gardening - esp garlic and legal herbs, and metal work\sculptures. ( although the "sculptures" is a bit exaggerated). Animals, grew up on a hobby farm - my pic is my dog Karl with a K.
Finally, trying to play bass guitar|melodica\music - grew up with punk, The Clash, Iggy, Bowie, but really I have NO musical skills. And like to question authority.( although with real little success)
Hope this isn't too self- absorbed? Jack of some trades, master of none...

I would if you were a little closer.
I've been waiting for one to fall into my lap but there's not many left out there. I can just imagine all the fun I would have with a rear engine two seater MR2 with the massive torque of a modded TDI. I guess the vw diesel engines is still my favorite hobby.

It's a neat car, 250k and I wish any older vw looked as good after so long. WA state car, zero rust, runs great. Go figure. I actually see a bunch of the non supercharged ones out here.

Yeah, I'm ready for something more advanced than that. Is there anything you can recommend Tintin that's RTF around the 200-300 mark? It would be nice to have one or two extra battery packs to reduce down time.
Humm..... Flying RC heli is a very long learning curve, it took years to learn & really enjoy flying, it all depend at what stage you are and how you want to invest in the hobbie. For serious beginner is to start with a good simulator and experiment with those little toys, and gradually move on to the real thing, not a real full size heli but a real RC heli. You need a good radio first (300$ to 500$) a good charger (anoter 200$ to 300$) then a good heli can be between 500$ for a small one to 3000$ + for a bigger size.
At the end you want to choose something that you can afford to crash, because yes, no matter how good you are at flying, you will still crash from time to time.

Thanks tintin, That's what I was looking for. I've had the simulator now for years and I was thinking of something like this.
http://www.greathobbies.com/productinfo/?prod_id=HMXE0801The good news is I have a good assortment of li-pos and chargers but don't have a heli remote yet. I don't mind spending a little extra on that since you only have to buy one.
I know the simulator doesn't replace the real thing but there's not too many people around here in the hobby. Do you mind sharing which heli forum you're on?
