I have been thinking about opening a hobby shop in gaylord what do you think where do you go for your stuff now???
Mike D. 03-20-2009, 11:49 AM i go to traverse city, or get them online, a hobby shop would be great to!!!!
harmocy 03-20-2009, 12:57 PM I am looking for a local that I can set up a small to medium carpet track with a hobby shop any ideas???
Mike D. 03-20-2009, 01:34 PM we race in gaylord on thursdays on a carpet track, somtimes go up to st. ignance, they have theres on sunday, there will be one this sunday at the elementry school gym, i think racing starts at 11:30, for more info on this contact casey brake, his user mane is promatchracer, as for hobby shop, the internet is taking over the hobby, i would love to see one come to gaylord but dont think it would make it, if anything , start a ebay store or online store, you are more apt to do a better sale.
Promatchracer 03-21-2009, 04:54 PM Yea we are racing this Sunday I am at the track setting up right now
As for the Hobby Shop in Gaylord good luck with that
The locals love Tower and Amain and don't want to spend the extra 5-10 bucks for a kit from a Hobbyshop I have tried to get them but they just don't care
Come on up here and race and check out things in Saint Ignace for our Local racing I know you are already planning on coming up for the Spring Fling
I am going to be signing papers next week on a store for my Shop I just need to sell a few things this weekend so I can come up with some cash for the lease
So if anybody needs anything LM K this weekend 231 445 0958
Also I have a transponder system for you to start your track up Call me and I can make you a deal on it
If you need any help with track set up or help on getting it going I am great at PR and if there is a track in Michigan I pretty much know about it
I an kinda the go to guy for Michigan track info
If I don't know the answer about a track I can find out with in a day
Call me
Also Mike I will call you soon

I have been racing with you guys the last two races this is Adam and what if I could match or beet the kit prices from online I know I could because the money is not made on the kits it is on parts and accesories that is the problem with most shops they try to get it on the first sale and the real money is in the long run.
harmocy 03-23-2009, 09:30 PM Got a call from the place I was looking into they want 3000 a month so that idea is off I need to get it way down from there please anyone who knows a location let me know!!!
Promatchracer 03-23-2009, 10:26 PM Adam call Me I have some ideas for you and a really good possiblity
231 445 0958 I am at work right now but after mid I can talk
Later
harmocy 03-24-2009, 11:01 AM KC I will call you around noon time thanks!!!
nmracer 04-14-2009, 08:21 PM i would be more than willing to spend the few extra bucks for a kit but it has to be from someone that doesnt rub me the wrong way (Casey). Im not trying to get anything started here but casey doesnt make me want to spend any money with him.If you carry the inventory then great but with so many trucks out there good luck.casey has never been able to even close to match prices on nitros and there are a few of us out there. Adam Im more tham willing to try to support an new track and shop but Im loyal to Matt.
Promatchracer 04-14-2009, 08:46 PM Why don't you post who your are KEN
Your very first post is to come on here and Bash me
I have always tried to give a fair price but some ppl don't realize what shipping cost or and other items for
Also hardly anybody from down there has done more than asked if I could get a kit in and that was it
So post up who you are
And most of the guys in Gaylord know I used to want to do what ever I could for that track

What does being loyal to Matt have to do with anything??? I have nothing against Matt and the club... I plan to race with the guys at the track at the fairgrounds on the Sundays they have it!!! I just want a place that can sell the things that people want and need and dont want to wait for it to come in the mail and a track you can goto everyday... I raced every race that Matt held since I found out where and when they were held... So please dont act like it is Matt vs. Me as far as I know Matt does not own a shop or the club... i plan to be an active member of the club and support it all the way so if you could pass that around... :thumbsup:
