Like Rick, FRC does take up a large amount of my free time.
But over the past few weeks, I've started getting back into remote controlled trucks, a hobby I was into back in high school. (Living in the dorms at USC kinda killed it off, aided by the closing of the nearest track.) A few weeks ago, my mom passed along an article in the local paper about an indoor dirt track that opened up beside the local ice rink. I went over and rented a truck for a while, and the bug got me again.
A little eBay hunting later, I now own a Slash VXL and have been replacing parts on it as they break. (And I've broken more than I care to admit--bent axles and pins, broken chassis plate and A-arms, enough shot bearings to make me buy the value pack...)
But the ability to wrench on something, have some fun with it, and still fit it in my condo is pretty awesome.
