I worked at that Hobbytown before it became the hobbyplex, when it was in Eagle Run 132nd and maple. I helped open that location because I worked at Hobbytown LaVista and got volun-told lol. I can't believe it's already been 20 years, congrats!
Wish I could visit. Was born in Omaha a long, long time ago but family moved a thousand miles away while I was still a kid. Only been in Omaha a few times since (lived in Fremont while I was there.)
I was just there for the first time a month back or so. I'm looking forward to coming to see the renovation and bring my crawlers next time. I wish I lived closer than 2 1/2 hours away. Lol
hell yeah I have only been to the shop once. I was so blown away. I just got into RC back in January and live like 2 hours away. Ive built an indoor course and starting my own outdoor. My dream would be to open a place just like that but further west. Columbus perhaps or a smaller town and take over an old building thats not used for anything anymore.
Tilling it up plays a big part. Unfortunately, outdoor tracks won't hold together like this unless you add either organics into the dirt like pine shavings or wood chips...or...oils like vegetable oil or even diesel fuel. I don't recommend the diesel fuel for obvious reasons.
@@TheHobbyPlexShow now you said dirt. We are using clay. Just trying to be clear. So till some pine chips into the clay? Would it work to just till up the top 2”. It’s a oval by the way
Hey Alex, That layout is awesome. Drivers will have to be on top of their game from start to finish. You’ve made the Hobbyplex one of the best indoor RC tracks. You and your team take a bow! I’ll be watching all the action! 🤙
Can't wait to come watch the boys get after it this weekend! Another beautiful layout with so much focus and detail. Thank you so much for the continued superlative effort you invest into the track Alex!
To all the naysayers and people that are jealous about time somebody has come up with a car that you spend a little bit of money on that's ready to race out of the box good for Traxxas no more hundreds of dollars spent unnecessary to go racing let's go racing in have a spec class
It's not cheaper, though. We run the lcg chassis, which is 32 bucks, and the car is 250, and the bodies are 150 minimum. You're in 432 dollars, and you still don't have the gtr shocks and magnum transmission.
I think a spec class of this thing in the winter would be an awesome alternative to 8th scale and carpet. Might have to grab one so I can get last place in a new and exciting way
I can't believe that your track doesn't run dirt oval at least once per week . How hard could it be. I wish I could own a place like that . I would also like to see an oval track on the carpet side too .
We tried doing dirt oval in the summer, and the turnout didn't justify it. Most oval guys change their cars over to an outdoor loose dirt setup in the summer. Ours is indoor high bite clay.
Yeah, unfortunately, most shops are the way we have it at the Plex. The way it is here is not the norm. When the Plex is remodeled, a lot more stuff will be visible again.
oh my god that Novak 8th scale electronics kit is calling my name. i need to not visit this place, or if I do take The Boss with me so she can keep me from spending a ridiculous amount of money. AND COMIC BOOKS!?!? AND STARTING LINEUP!?! my bank account is in danger
I havent been there in a while, kinda cool how much it had changed in 3 yrs ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-DVycl3UJXKs.htmlfeature=shared
