RE: Besides cars, what is your favorite hobby?
Besides cars, there is Motorcycles, actually this falls above the love of cars.
bass guitar, currently another project. I bought my Fender Bass in 90, looks all heavy metalish and now would prefer a Jazz Bass, so I bought new jazz pickups and currently it is pulled apart, I sanded down to the wood and in the process of repainting it, cheaper than buying a new bass and makes for a fun project.
Strumming the 6 string, just bought a cheap Epiphone Les Paul Special II. But for the price, it still sounds good.
Scuba dive occasionally.
RC Vehicles.
And computer games, preferably special ops type, favorite being Splinter Cell series. Can't wait for March when the next one comes out. I am currently playing Crysis, awesome game.
