Other than real or 'toon airplanes, what gets your blood pumping (other than womens, of course, don't get this thread png'd by posting pics of barely clothed ladies)....
For me, other than race cars, I have a strange fascination/obsession with old BMW cafe racer airheads.......

My parents both ride Harleys, but I for some reason have never felt like they "did it for me." Something about the vintage cafe look, though... whoooo boy.
What 'bout y'all?

Cigarettes...

Hell get shot at by anything more serious than paintball or bb guns. When it's for real, the thrill factor goes through the roof. It turns out to be a lot more fun well after the fact however.

Nice bikes :old: I like the vintage look too, my parents owned and operated a vintage motorcycle shop for most of my young life and when I was a little 'un I was dragged to countless vintage race meetings, rallies and functions. I say 'dragged' because at the time I was totally fed up with being constantly around motorbikes ;) But now I'm older I find I really appreciate the vintage aesthetic.
My other addictions: books, ice/roller hockey, blood bowl (www.fumbbl.com) and my family

Yanno ..
.. went to look at a Kimber .45 (Desert Warrior) ..shoots ACP .. makin my own ammo for it I could 'do' 2k rounds in a day of fun at the range with it..
..would be another hobby and a bit of change to get into but it does appeal.
Tempting.

Are those .30-06?
I wish I had the initial capital to invest in getting all of those tools to start saving money lol. Hand casting your own bullets is pretty hard core.

Yup 30-06. Cost about a 600$ worth of tools and 400$ worth of expandable. The cast bullets Really are just for plinking. Bring my cost down to about 12cents/round, 4.6cents worth of powder, 3.6cents for a gas check and 4.2 cent for the primer. With a small charge like I'm using, the brass will last forever and with a reduced charge like, that the 30-06 does not kick harder than a 223. Good load for the wife and kiddo when he get old enough. Good for me too as you can shoot the thing all day without bruising. And man is it a fun hobby! I've had the time of my life assembling those.

oh cmon. let the little one let some of the bigger lead loose! when I was 8 years old I was slingin 180 grains at deer.
I remember the first round I reloaded. the spent shell from my first buck. Its the only bullet I use to deer hunt with now. that casing has dropped 17 bucks and 13 doe.
