Wow, perfect timing! I used to see your billboards on Rt 70 and on 136 all the time, but didn't have an RC car at the time. Then the signs disappeared so I obviously assumed you closed up. I recently bought an AX10 and was kind of bummed that there was no place local anymore to pick up things I'd need. Are you the guys that used to be in a plaza in New Stanton? Is the new location right by Andy's tire where the Victory shop was? Good luck with everything, if I need anything at all, I'll stop and see you guys first |

Thanks for the link, I registered.... I have no plans on competing, but would be interested in meeting up with some people now and then for some unofficial crawling.... I bought an E-Maxx in March but decided it wasn't really what I wanted, so I sold it off and bought an AX10 (Big surprise, eh?). I finished building it and am real happy with how it came out, but it's not in running shape because I'm waiting for a Castlelink to come in (Should be here by Wednesday, I would think). I snooped the board alot and used a few of the tips and tricks on lowering the CG. Can't wait to run it, but it looks so nice that I don't want to bang it up... Oh well, I'll get over it ;)

Welcome buddy. And yes we're in the old Victory/Polaris shop. Stop by anytime for some un-official crawling. Once you meet all the guys/girls you may wanna compete, it's pretty fun and we're all pretty laid back We also have an offroad track at the Smithton Hole. Can't wait to meet ya, and go scratch up that Axial!! Matt "Crawln" Coles | |

Wished I hadn't missed it. I'll let CJ keep ahold of those wheels for me! The shop looks really nice in the photos. You guys really need to get an indoor series set-up. WPAC, Raceway, Freddies. |

Been wheeling with CJ before, long time ago. With Badassjeepguy, Flimmy, etc. etc. Always kind of felt like a third wheel and that I was just "there" because I wasn't good friends with any of them, but it was still fun regardless. Went to Big Dogs in Gore in '02 and more than a few trips to Creek Hills and Wellsville. Have a few great pics of CJ in his YJ and BAJG getting themselves wedged into a huge crack in Wellsville, back when BAJG had his TJ in mostly stock looking form on 38's 39.5 TSL's.... Seeing that I just can't afford to wheel full size anymore, that's why I'm getting into the 1/10th stuff. At least I can get some sort of wheeling "fix" in. I do miss it.

great shop, has alotta potential, couldnt ask for a better group of guys to hang with ( even you kinger) lol!!! GOTCHA! Matt has got me convinced on getting a rock crawler... as im old school having to relearn everything i THOUGHT i knew bout R/Cs in general. New carpet track is great. Im looking forward to the Outdoor nitro track full tilt next season. and getting serious bout this rock crawling thing. Anyone can sell ya a kit, but these guys go way above just SALES, they are great techs, willing to help you from the ground up no matter what your budget is. Good Luck with the new shop!
