Although we have several local hobby shops in the lower mainland, most do not cater to the RC racing scene. Here are the shops we do recommend if you want to go racing....

GRIPWORKS RC
On-Road - Trackside Gripworks is the best place to go for all things Touring Car and On-Road. The owner, Alex is a fast racer himself and can get your on-road program sorted with top of the line equipment. You can find Gripworks online but also at most of the local on-road races GripworksRC.com |

RCPITSTOP
Off-Road - Langley, BC If off-road is your thing, I recommend RCPitstop in Langley. For racing advice, you have to ask for Troy. Troy is an experienced racer and can help you with anything off-road (and most things on-road) related. Make sure you ask for Troy if you want someone that knows racing though |
