    Saw your post about Pan Car Oval stuff in Hobby Shops.

    First off, if you open a retail Hobby Shop, you are welcome to order from us anytime.

    There are a lot of reasons for some of Pan Car Oval's problems and most of the racers don't understand that is has a lot more to do with the business side of our hobby than things like rules.

    For example...many Hobby Shops wonder why we don't sell through the Distributers...well we did at one time. It's not that we don't sell to them, they won't carry our product. In 1992 we were pushed out the door, and coincidentally Protoform was picked up with Pro-Line backing. There is an ugly political side to any competitive industry, and the Hobby Industry is no exception. If you get involved, you will find out along the way.

    This is a private conversation with us. If you have any more questions, you are welcome to email me or call any time.

    Thanks

    Are you still interested in shorter front arms for a B4, I am trying to get Chad at Dynotech Racing to start making them.

    Hi Jimmy-
    Saw your post. Thanks for inquiring. I am still planning on finishing a Super LM body, however I really question how many Pan Car guys will be interested. We have three really good ASA Late Model bodies for Pan Cars and the interest has been very low. You can see by the forums that most Pan Car racers are stuck on one brand like lemmings, so it's tough for me to focus much on Pan Car oval, even though it's my favorite RC racing. I wish the racers had more of an open mind and payed attention to the look of the full size race cars. But, you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink.

    Thanks
