It's off of Alameda and 448. Right next door to the new Harbor Freight.

Well Axial stuff maybe. The one in Melbourne FL didn't have shit for Axial stuff...but they did have a sweet selection of RTR rigs. Mainly Traxxas and HPI but they had parts to build at least two kits each of everything they carried. Unlike HobyProz. I swear they never have anything in stock for replacement parts."I can order it for you" No shit Sherlock, I would glady pay the additional 15%-25% mark up if they had in right then and there.

Yeah, granted I was in FL almost two years ago. So maybe HT has changed with the axial parts.

Only time will tell. Looks like they are shooting for a late October, early November opening.

I've been to a few in Colorado and like mentioned earlier it depends on who's running the place. Maybe if we're there when they open requesting they stock scale and crawler stuff then they will

I think if enough of us go in and tell them what we would like to see in stock, they might do it. It would be nice to have more of a crawler selection here for sure. So if any of you hobby town guys are watching, pay attention to the crawler crowd here.

Mike
