Hubby got his last car from gravesrc, type this in the search engine and it should bring up the website. It was like an aladdins cave and he was well pleased with his purchase.

There is a shop called The Hobby Shop on the 192, quite a way past the Walmarts as you are travelling away from Disney. Its in a small strip mall of shops and i always know it by the colour of the walls -bright terracotta, and the roof - bright greeny-blue. Sorry I can't be more specific with the directions. If I can find the website I will post later.

Sorry, its called JR Hobby. The address is 4153 WestVine Street (which is another name for the 192), Kissimmee.

They don't have a website or email but their phone number is (407) 944 4913 if you want to call ahead to check stock and get directions.

The only reason i know about it is that his wife runs the needlecraft shop next door.

I just got back today and in my case i had a HPI Savage X 4.6 RTR bought from graves rc on the North Orange Blossom Trail! The guys in there were very helpful and gave me lots of advice and guidance for when i got home as this is my first nitro rc car!

We were staying on Landstar Boulevard and it took us approx 35 minutes to get there via the OBT, South OBT(a bit of a rough looking area) and onto North OBT!

If you are looking for rc stuff i can't recommend this palce highly enough! I e-mailed before i went and the guy put me one aside so i knew i would have one :grin: Class service!

The car was $429 +tax, i also got a wheelie bar, nitro filler bottle, hex spanner and a new glow plug(recommended to make it run better) and the total was $501!

I already had a couple of bits i need and i have had to order some fuel and a glow starter when i got home but i reckon it still worked out cheaper than getting it at home!

Hope this helps :grin:
