Can't say I have many hobbies. The most recent one is definitely cars. I do a lot of reading in my spare time, mostly news and such. I also love to cook. And I always have my PSP and DS in my messenger bag.

My usual day starts with the gym, and ends with the TV on. :P

I guess I would have to say cars are my hobby. I collect 1/18 scale die cast, I have a nice collection of 1/32 slot cars that we run on our track, and of course my two beautiful Montes (and past cars which I gave up for adoption)!

besides racing, my biggest hobby would be photography. i got into it a few years back, my favorite thing is nighttime photography. my brother just fixed my digital canon body so that it now works with my existing lenses, so hopefully i'll start shooting more with it.

is shopping a hobby? because i love shopping

I'm a certified advanced open water scuba diver, but its actually been years since I've done any diving. I haven't a partner to dive with anymore (long story made short = remarried to a non-diver). I've been selling off my scuba equipment this year to pay for Monte upgrades.

hey Amy, which 1:18's do you collect? I collect the cheapest ones i can find, but not sacrificing quality. this means the Maisto's from Sam'sClub/Wal-Mart, and Ertl is another personal favorite. I made a thread a long time ago of my collection. I also collect 1:24's. I've got a '69 Talladega Torino that started the collection, and the Torino has had a place in my heart since (and led to my current resotration project.) Soem other great cars are my 70 Chevelle 454, a 69 Charger (General Lee). I've got a 70 Buick GS 455, a 68 Mustang GT (428, yet not a Shelby), a 70 Mercury Cougar Eliminator with a 428, a '66 GTO Hurst edition, a '66 Corvette, '69 Camaro, and a '71 Challenger, amongst several others, and thats not even including my 1:24's!!!

Then there's the Torino restoration. I'm posting updates o nthat. We also have the old '50 Chevy truck that we already restored.
