What are some of the "better" RC stores that you guys visit?

I've been to Skycraft Hobbies, Big Boys with Cool Toys, Galaxy Hobby, and Xtreme RC

Hobby Hobby in Mississauga is very good, although I probably shop more at Galaxy. (Galaxy is one of the few places around that carries Kyosho parts)

Ferraro Speed World in Hamilton has a pretty good hobby store, too. (not to mention the best indoor carpet offroad track around right now)

I would love to join in, but I travel back and forth canada for work, which is all out of pocket :cry: I'm supposed to live in Calgary for my job, but I am able to fly into work from my home in NS if I wanted to, so I do :lol: Any time I get home I like to spend it with my wife, and I don't think I can convince my wife to travel for RC purposes :cry:

:shock: WTF, eh? :lol:

it's okay Reg, Rod still thinks I live in New Brunswick after all this time. Most people west of Quebec usually think all us easterners are from Newfoundland. I guess I throw him off because I don't talk like a drunken scott. Then again it could be everyone west of eastern New Brunswick that thinks that, because I have no idea what those french guys are saying :roll:

Nope, I'm about 5000kms on the other side of the country. Since the father in-law lives in VA & SC, it's more likely I could come visit you or go to an east coast meet than go to Ontario

I had it stuck in my head that you were working in the MK for some reason :oops: Well, as I told you before we go to the same part of SC sometimes...........
