How is Origin affecting your life...

I dunno about everyone else. But i am spending so much time on my Baja that i am just about gettin sick of lookin at it! . My bank balance is rooted. My missus has to call me in from the garage because i am always in there. I have put on weight because from the minute i wake up i am on AUSRC.COM then once i am done with that, I am in the garage workin on my beast till bedtime. I think even my relationship is under pressure from this RC addiction.

I am lookin forward to the Origin series. Cant wait to race in it. and cant wait for it to be over so my life can return to normal .

Anyone else in the same predicament as me?

Two words: Sleep....... Deprivation.

How does undoing one bolt to put some fresh locktite turn into a 5hr ordeal?

Two words: Large Scale.
