Default Minneapolis hobby shops?

My wife and I are going to Minneapolis in a few weeks as part of our vacation, and I'm looking for a "point of interest" for myself....in other words, a good hobby shop!

Can anyone recommend a good RC hobby shop in the Minneapolis area? I'm of course into crawling, and bashing with a T-Maxx, E-Maxx and Savage 4.6.

I stopped in at rc car kings last weekend, I'd reccomend it! Knowlegable staff and great selection. If my wife hadden't been with me I would have walked out with a truck load.

Jerry's RC in the north metro (Lino Lakes) is a sponsor of the MNRCRC. Great shop, friendly and lots of knowledge. Also, has some cool project vehicles in there.

RC Car Kings and Jerry's RC are the places to go.

Just bough a VF DIG from RC Car Kings this morning. As I was told, they are knowledable and helpful....and to boot, close to our motel. HAve not gone to Jerry's- nothing else in the area we are interested in seeing, so I'll have to be satisfied. I've also gone to Hub Hobbies, not great knowledge but they have a huge and varied selection of stuff. They have decent 1/18 scale diecasts (which I collect as well) including Highway 61 stuff which seems hard to find except online. All in all, great vacation for me!
