Tonight will be my 1st RC race. (weather permitting) I have come to realize that this is EXACTLY like racing real cars!! How is that? Well ... my LiPo batteries may or MAY NOT be here in time. The seller conveniently waited 3 days to ship them THEN they get stuck on a truck in some nasty weather slowing the delivery even more. Backup plan initiated to run the original NiMH battery!! (SOB!!) My car is at a LHS where the owner also races at the track I'm going to and I was SUPPOSE to pick up the car on Saturday. Saturday morning I see a post on FB stating that he is closed that day!! GREAT!! (shop is normally closed Sun and Mon) I get to pick up the car TODAY with no time to really mess with it and see how the "tweaks" will affect the car!! Backup plan initiated again ... setup a second Slash that I can throw the body on and have fun. This is EXACTLY what it's like racing REAL cars! Parts ordered ... delays .... send something for a few "tweaks" and .... delays. I haven't had this much fun since I raced REAL cars!! OMG!! So ... do tell ... how many of you have become "Hair Club For Men" members because of this "hobby"???
