Are there any good local hobby shops and tracks in the area for 1/8 scale buggies? Living in the Federal way are and there is not much around..

Hi woody, I'm wondering the same thing the only LHS around here in Lakewood that I'm familiar with is Fantasy World Hobbies in Tacoma, since me and my wife are moving to Kent this November we're in the same predicament

but I dont know if this would be any help I saw this page in RC Groups you might wanna check it out:

whats up jay-r, hows everything out west? you been running the matrix any?

Hi trackman, We've been moving alot lately and hopefully this is going to be the last one in Kent WA my wife got a GREAT job there. My Matrix on the other hand is still a virgin I guess it's going to be a shelfqueen forever. I never ran Nitro since we left Oklahoma, played electrics last weekend but that's about it for the whole year since we left.
Washington state has been very good so far not as expensive as California but has better places than Oklahoma.
To be super honest The Cen Matrix buggy looks so good I want to keep it in pristine condition forever, My wife told me that she's getting me the latest 1/8th CEN Buggy when it comes out in the future maybe then I'll start running my Matrix
I think I'm in love with my CEN Matrix

take care and God Bless trackman.

Hi

The only tracks that I know of are Tacoma RC Racing (aka TRCR) in Tacoma, and Four Seasons in Olympia. Also NorthWest RC's in Puyallup has a very small oval dirt track, but I really wouldn't call that a track at least not for gas vehicles.

Here is a list of known tracks in WA.
