Has this happened to anyone

[John78]

Hey everyone! I'm kind of getting burnout on the whole r/c thing. When I go to the hobby shop it's not the same as it used to be. The enjoyment of the hobby isn't there for me anymore. I still read all the magazines and check out all the websites, but it's not sparking anything. Just wondering if this has happened to anyone and what they did to cure it. I don't want to get out of the hobby, but it just doesn't seem as fun as it used to be.

I've got a crazy off the wall idea......... TRY USING ONE OF YOUR MANY MODELS!!!!! You might be surprised john but there alot more fun to drive than to watch them collect dust in in the "hobby room". Just my opinion ..... And we all know what opinions are like, and yes they all stink.

Start off runni some of your electrics they wont be such a hassle and that might spark somthing in ya

hhmmm...driving my rc cars.....thats a good idea! what other ideas are there?

Once the weather breaks, The spark will be back... It's hard to stay interested, when you don't/can't run your cars.

BigD just what are you going to do with it?! Call me about going to that clod show when you get time this week.

Clod show? When and where? Yeah going to expos, shows and races is good way to make you want r/c's. Also remember there is many different types of r/c cars. You have crawlers, racers, pullers, realistic, onroaders, offroaders, jumpers, corner machines speed demons and more. If you tired of racing get into crawling or realistic stuff changing in driving style is always a way to have fun.

Sell off some cars you don't/won't use and build a new kit.
