Philly Area Racers?

PWalk · #1 01-03-2003, 06:10 PM

Hey everybody,

I just got a couple of these cars err... clones I guess for Christmas and was wondering if anyone on these boards were from the Philly area.

I haven't been able to find any shops in this area for Bit-chars or microsizers so if anyone has any ideas where I can look I'd greatly appreciate it. All the shops around here have nothing but clones.

Thanks in advance.

i dont think they are much better than clones tho.

Thx Jim,

Hi Philly people, I was at the allied hobbies at the Oxford Valley mall last night. They have almost all the microsizer stuff you could want, even the 2.6 motor. Also the Target at the Neshamy Mall has cars for $19.99. Allied wants $29.99...

I went to the Allied shop in Roosevelt Mall today and they had plenty of stuff there, go check it out.

I'm right around the corner from that Target in Neshaminy so I'll have to go check it out this week.

If anyone wants to setup a night of racing, or know of a place to race in the Philly area post it here.

F.Y.I. The Granite Run Mall Allied Hobbies has closed, replaced by a McDonalds, so don't make the trip or you'll be disappointed.

about 10 minutes from philly, a race would be cool, i would like to race some people.....i am sick of racing all of the people here, it gets redundant. Lets get this set up peoplz!

p.s... drag races?

PWalk · #14 01-14-2003, 03:19 PM

We could set up a drag race sure! I don't have any bits setup for one but what the hey, I'll build one then.

Anyone interested in setting up a PHILLY AREA race post it here.

We can use this forum to get everything together.

OK, I'm going to start building a track this weekend.

Anyone in the Philly area who wants to race and would like to help out in construction is welcome.

Question: What type of track would everyone like to race on?
I'm partial to road courses, but I'll build others as needed or requested.
