dNano Racing at HT Fremont
 

Soon there will be racing on Friday nights at Hobby Town Fremont. You will see the classes allowed by the scoring software and hopefully there will be races between Hobby Towns via the Global racing software that is in the package. Imagine racing in your Hobby Town while competing against drivers at another Hobby Town at the exact same time with a "Winner" or "TQ" driver declared between the stores. Should be lots of fun!

A little bird told me that Hobby Town Petaluma would have a track this week!

Dnano Tracks
 

The Petaluma Track is up and running!

Do you guys take over the phone orders from out of state?

I have asked the Store Manager to ask the Owners if this is ok. The Manager thinks that it is against the rules to sell product into another Hobby Town's area and that is whey they don't currently do it. Who's rules, I don't know. It may be a Corporate thing or it could be a Owner thing. We'll get to the bottom of this soon. It's a pity too, they have all of the cars in stock and have some replacement parts also. Soon they will have the hop ups too... Hopefully we'll have an answer for you soon.

Well, the HTUSA in my area doen't carry them... I will go check again. I will be very excited if they did but I doubt it. If I bug them will they carry them? Shouldn't there be more than just one person interested in these for them to start ordering?

Your Hobby Town should be able to special order the one you want when they order some S-Maxx's in. They get them from the same place...or they will when Hobby Town gets inventory in. Right now the Hobby Town Stores order from Kyosho USA and Kyosho USA ships. This should change soon....

If your Hobby Town has an activities area, encourage them to put in a track! You never know, they just might!

The track looks small and could get boring quick. Do Hobbytowns have plans to make them bigger and change up the layout?

Yes they do. All Hobby Towns will start with the above layout to keep everyone on the same page. This will also allow Hobby Towns to race each other with the Global Racing option in the software. Some of the future layouts can be seen at http://www.racednano.com/index.php?page=experience Eventually Kyosho will change the track layouts and track sizes as things move along. Right now, I can't wait to get a race going to see who's fast! I also can't wait for them to install the 4 panel track!

I'm liking my track a little better! ;) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HybGgw8ikX4 It's not me driving, and there normally about 10 people there, but this is the only decent video where you can see the whole track.

That is VERY COOL! Do you have any videos with 5 or 6 cars on the track? I would love to see some competition on that track racing for the apex!

No, but I've been wanting to for the last couple weeks. I'll see if I can't get any this weekend. :)

Any new videos from this weekend -J-?

Woo woo..I see yellow Ferraris. Are they F430?

Sorry. Those are Mucialagos (sp). The F430 is not available yet in the US via Kyosho USA. I am hoping soon...
