Let’s hear about your favorite LHS (Local Hobby Shop)

[fhhhstix]

My LHS is RC Hobbies Plus in Lafayette IN. owned and operated by Larry and Glenda Bennett. Some of you may know Larry and not even realize it especially Clod buster fans as he is the one who made the Bennett Clod a Leaver which dominated RC 4x4 racing for many years. Larry also holds some records in RC truck pulling; they even retired one class after 6 years nobody even came close to his record.
I buy as much as I can through the hobby shop; the only time I go elsewhere is when he just can’t get it. With my constant problems dealing with RC4WD I now buy their products through him if his vendors carry it. Larry is like that cool uncle you always wanted and he does treat me like family. Before I went into the parts department at work I went to the hobby shop on my lunch hour every day. I missed a few days one week and Larry called me to see how I was doing and if there was something wrong. I can say I will really miss him when he finally retires.

Here is a pic off of Horizons web site from a dealer day they had to show new products, Larry is the guy in the red shirt.
