Default hobby stores ????

hey a friend and i are thinking about starting a hobby shop that will have more crawler stuff than most places in the area. we are thinking of having a few tracks including a crawler area it will be between albany and utica just looking to see what kind of intrest there would be for such a place

Any new hobby shops carrying crawler items would be a welcome addition. Slowly, crawling is gaining some ground in this area and if shops actually carried crawlers it would only help with popularity. Good luck!

I don't know how often I'd drive to Gloversville/Amsterdam (I'm in Malta/Ballston Spa) for pieces and parts vs. paying shipping from a RCC vendor, but I'd use the crawler course from time to time if you charged a few bucks.

I'm in troy and I'd be more than game to come out for a track! Like jamboree said with gas and all might be a little much for me to drive out for most everyday parts, but I'd be more than happy to support when out there for the track.

We need a shop and a indoor/outdoor scale trail course in the Niagara Falls and Lockport area.

I drive to Binghamton somewhat often. I would love to stop in now and then to see the place. You picked out a location yet?

the guy in little falls can be a hassle to deal with. the guy at florians will go above and beyond to help you with your rig. would be nice to see a small store with a place to crawl. there is always hobbytown in albany but they are very crawler limited.
