scrc indoor Comp #3 rc Hobbies Naperville

Bill (the owner) seem to be kind of a hard guy to read but, one of the nicer and more accomidating shop owners in the area. Leading up to the comp I had been trying to stay in touch with him and I was VERY suprised how excited they were to be hosting a comp. If more hobbyshop owners were like Bill and Mike (HT Naper) I think the online stores would get far less bussiness.

It is GREAT that both of those locations carry the "stock" parts for our trucks and do all that they can to support crawling. They are at least able to get us back on the rocks with what they carry. Naperville HT is on the right track with creating an ordering relationship with RC4WD. It might be cool if RC Hobbies started a similar relationship with TCS. BOTH of these "online" vendors carry some differing stock....so it would not cause a blatent conflict between the 2 retail stores in terms of custom part support.....both Naperville guys could get a nice piece of the crawler pie. Guys who need heavy duty steel/aluminum parts could hit HT...and guys who need suspension parts, links, chassis, electronics, and Axial Trans based digs could hit RC Hobbies. I know that this sounds idealistic, but we want BOTH of these local guys to have success....and we all want access to the parts / support that our trucks require. Maybe something along these lines could work. I like to dream big.
