I do kelly, but im NOT obsessed with them (yet )
I also love my camera gear and using it too! I dont have many friends, probably coz im a sad person who spends lots of time with model and real cars?
but you guys here are great!
and NOT just car talk!

John, you have some cool stuff. My family used to race, RC boats, cars and planes. My dad still has most of them, but it got to expensive to race them.

I bet so, since icy weather doesn't normally go that far south.

John,
I've done my fair share of damage to my boats, but usually by hitting another boat or running up on the beach. Never ran into a wall though
Good luck w/ ur drifting
