Trainerman Valued Member Australia 85 Posts	Posted 08/24/2012 01:31 am Wow, my other hobby pales into insignificance compared to some of you. I'm restoring/rebuilding a 1973 Holden HQ GTS Monaro 4 door with a factory 350 Chev. Getting it back as close to factory as possible and it will be a driver for sunny weekends.

Fuzzy317 Moderator United States 14463 Posts	Posted 08/24/2012 05:28 am Hobby for one racing organization or a track staffing group, I run a crash truck to pick up motorcycle riders that crash or have mechanical problems on a paved race track. I also corner marshal at bike races or track days in the southeast US as part of the safety crew. This was a few years ago at VIR in Virginia. I am in the blue jeans. Report this Post to the Staff
qktbird Valued Member United States 152 Posts	Posted 10/03/2012 01:25 am Well, I don't get online very often and just found this topic so I thought I would bring it back. I've gotten into RC Helicopters in the last year and all I can say is it's about as addictive as the coin collecting hobby. LOL I've still got a long way to go in learning to fly the more advanced ones but it sure is fun!! Here are a few pics of my fleet. Just figured out that some fit really nice in PCGS slab boxes too.
