I'm Canadian... but I'm living in Germany now. Is there any other Canadians living in Germany here???

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

The only one I shop at is extreme Rc in Ajax, hardly any vintage stuff thou...someone picked thru it already but Heather is great to deal with for everything else

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)

WTF, eh?

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

I thought that you were on the left coast of Canada close to Rod?

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 Well, as I told you before we go to the same part of SC sometimes...........

what's MK? it probably something I know, but I'm not too swift sometimes
