bash spots? - 07-17-2005, 06:43 AM

Are there any bash spots in or around Bolingbrook? I wanna give my maxx a good beating, but the only spot I know of is the berwyn one, and thats quite a drive.

Due to my work schedual I can pretty much never make it out to any RC gatherings which sucks.

There is a skate park a mile or so from my house, but if there is any bit of sunlight, there are 10+ people there. and its not that big, so thats out of the question.

Well, I'd like to quit, but I doubt I can get a better job (unless someone here runs a buisness and is hiring?), so its either a. be stuck in a crappy job, but at least have a little bit of cash coming in (usually around $80 a week) or b. quit, and try to stay into RC for as long as possible with $200.


I'll go with option a.


If I ask to get either saturdays or sundays takin off of my schedual, they will put me on fridays probably, and in a pizza place, thats the last day you want to work.



I'm thinking I should have takin my grandmas advice these past summers and cut grass, I could've made a weeks pay in a day doing that, easily.

I saw a sign at Hobbytown in Aurora hiring. Looking for people that know something about r/c planes and cars, you might check that out.
