How many?
I was just being harassed by my wife, as she strolled through my workshop, counting how many cars I had laying around. I didn't really think I had as many as I did, but they seem to have accumulated a lot recently, and I have run out of places to put them. The spill-over caught my wife's eye...
So we counted.
Between actual race cars, restoration projects, flip investments and finished restored cars, I have 21 sitting there in a 14' x 14' area of the unfinished basement. I have a bit of a "collecting" problem, but I'm sure most of you guys have WAY more cars than I do... so how many do you have?

and we all know it's a long one... I don't think there's an other car ever released with so many conversion kits and hop-up options in the RC history, I guess that's precisely why we are all stuck here, trying to pass the tunnel, but it seems we all lack lights, I've still not crossed anyone of you... by the way, I must have about 25 rigs, and the wife just read the entire post and laughed, thank you guys for having more than me, chapeau to shodog

Hmmm... a little over 300, give or take a few. Several which are duplicated and triplicated in the count since I tend to keep acquiring and storing NIB models....
BUT.... this count will drop considerably in the near future since most of my personal collection will begin being placed on Ebay sometime in August/September.... so keep an eye out.
