I was very much like that. Then by coincidence, I got into RC-car racing. Not only is it fun, a community, and a way to see yourself improve - it is my first non-programming-hobby-activity since being a teenager, and most importantly a money sinkhole - I love it!

If you ever wanted to turn your RC-car racing hobby into a programming-hobby-activity, you can try to start your own Sparkfun-style AVC:
