| Anyone in Central Cali? 559?
Hi! Noob to the hobby, but dove deep and am going all in, would like to meet up with some locals if there are any on here. I live in Fresno, I know there are some of the “559RCC” guys in Visalia which isn’t far, not sure if any of you guys are on here. Lookin to do some crawling at millerton, Hensley, Eastman lake on the regular if anyone down. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

You might want to check with the people at CenCal Speedway. The owner, Eric (who also owns NorCal Hobbies in San Jose) is into crawling (as well as off-road racing), so I'm sure he has people there who "know crawling". Personally, I can't wait to check out the shop (from what I understand, it's huge, especially compared to NorCal Hobbies)...probably within the next few weeks (either on my way, or on my return, from Vegas Thanksgiving week). ~ More peace, love, and kindness would make the world a much better place |

Eric owns Hobbytown Fresno, the “Cencal speedway” is just a nice big road course they have in the parking lot where the previous location was (they sold to Eric and he moved it on the other side of the parking lot) I’ve been to both Norcal and I live near Hobbytown, the store itself is much bigger as Norcal “store” section is crammed but I think as far as inventory Norcal has more.

I live in fresno, I was in the store 3 times this week and 4 times last week, I was at Norcal the week before that. He definitely hasn’t moved half the inventory based on what I’m seeing, he does have a lot of cars for sure, maybe that’s what he meant about the inventory but when it comes to add on parts, it’s really weak.

Norcal is bigger over all due to the indoor track and all the upstairs storage but the store itself is really small compared to Hobbytown. HT has a lot of other things though, airsoft, table top games, model cars, Gundams, toys. So the RC side is probably still bigger than the Norcal store section. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Oh, that sucks. Figured it’d be more. They don’t have that much stuff when it comes to aftermarket things for crawlers in any scale. They have a bunch of Traxxas stuff, maybe that was the majority. You gonna be crawling when you come around here? There’s some local guys that may be able to assemble if you are wanting to crawl. |
