whether it be fiddling with 1:10, 1:1, yard work or nose picking, I always find a way to bust a knuckle.

well, it was a total hoopty i got for 150 bucks out of a junkyard in the middle of knowhere kansas, and then i put a pretty wild 455 in it out of my trans am that had an untimely end via a cow that got out on the road.

Mine is simple, I was born and bred in Trinidad in the Caribbean but have lived in England for the last 20 years. Most Trinidadians call themselves Trini's so then came Triniboy. Strange thing is that most people see people of African decent when they see the Caribbean but I am actually of Indian decent. Trinidad's population is marginally majority Indians. Anyone been to or heard of the Trinidad carnival its the biggest street party in the world. For two days which are not public holidays the entire country stops just to party.

Not too creative with my user name either. Rcflyer, since I build and fly r/c planes and heli's. 1984 since that's the year I was born. It fits in with the aircraft forums and looks kind of odd on the car forums.

when i was young and unruly i was into DJing and graffitti, Volumiza was my name and tag, then it became my nickname. i know by the age of 32 i should have consigned it to the past but i've been using it for forums and online gaming ever since.

Strangely enough RC Flyer was the original name for Fly RC Magazine. We were going to call it that until we got a letter from a lawyer about it. :shock:
