Farmer's Hobby Shop is responsible for the closing of two very succesful Tampa area RC tracks.

It seems one of the co-owners was not able get zoning to let him open a track at the location he wanted to, so he has gone on a mission to turn other tracks in in attempt to get them shut down. And as of now it appears he has been quite succesful.

Please help us racers who have lost our weekly tracks strike back where it counts, by avoiding shopping at Farmers at all costs! Remember your track could be next on his list, or worse yet allready under investigation.

What they evidentally didn't realize is that without a place to race, many of us wont break or wear out parts, and thus don't need to buy as many parts. Not to mention I for one will never shop there again, even if it means i have to sit out a week of racing waiting for a part from another shop.

hmmm, that sucks for you guys. ive seen something similar happen to other places. but it was due to a lawyer who had it in for RC's for some reason :confused: some kids disturbed him in his neigbourhood so he went after the tracks....smart these lawyers are.

minnreg got in trouble because of the trailer park next door. they raced to late at night and made too much noise.
