No one thinks its cool? Or does it not work?
It's like google street view but inside the store.
You can walk down all the isles. I've never seen anything
Like that before, plus it's a really cool hobby shop.
They've got everything, well almost everything.

I had to go back and look for the cats...the first go I was too busy looking for anything I could ask you to pick up for me. (The Assault is tempting) :wink:

I spotted only 2 cats: a tan and a black one. Either of them named Schumacher?

I couldn't spot the tan one but was told he was in there, his
Name is Sam and he's the racetrack cat. Or I should say he sleeps on
The track, unless I vacuum before we race you'll end up with Sam
Hair everywhere. I have no idea why there are two guys running sc
Trucks on the oval either, it's a small oval we use for legends and minis.

He only shows up for a single frame...turn right and walk forward once towards the black DX8 sign.

If you do come in the summer, there are 4 outdoor tracks.
1/10-1/8 clay offroad, 1/5 dirt offroad, 1/5 dirt tri oval, sand drags, 1/10 dirt oval
And a bash spot with a huge big air jump.

Not sure if that link will work, but if you start from the front of the store, take one step forward, then turn back around and look out the door, he is bottom right behind the boxes peeking out. :]

Cool shop and neat map, I've seen a few of those 'inside the store walkaround' google maps before, they went into my friend's shoe shop did a walkaround with the camera :D
