A Glowplug, on Sunday, in Houston ... ?

[UHFire]

Hello all - this is my first post! I just dove into the hobby RC world and got a Swift 4wd buggy about a week ago. Life is good. The Swift thread is very helpful, as well. Unfortunately, I've kicked myself in the rear - I've run out of glowplugs and ... it's sunday afternoon. I'm trying to run, but it's quickly looking like it will be a shop day. Does anyone know where I could pick up a glow plug, as most RC shops in the Houston area seem to be closed on Sunday. Thanks

Ben

Are you running out of glowpluggs really fast or something? Hobby Town USA is open on sundays

I had some trouble with my pullstart mechanism right off the bat. Trying to fix the problem blew the only two extras I bought. Fortunately today however, I was able to tear some grass up for a couple hours after all. I had a blast until ... of course, the front CVJ pin comes spoils my fun. It was great seeing the power shift to the rear tires though - I have to admit, I've had a blast with this car ... ... ... after I picked up a bump starter

:redbuggy:

Larry's Hobbies at I-45 and 1960 is open on Sun, but only for about four hours. I don't know about M&M or Clarke's though. Have you joined THRC yet ??

If your going to a race, you can ask one of your fellow racers to see if they can sell a few to you. Racers are pretty kewl at the track and I'm sure they can help you out. I know I would help you.

I will join soon - I have to ... err ... finish paying for my new buggy; the joys of credit for a close to broke college student. The only thing I could omit to reallocate funding right now would be my dearest cold frosty brew ... ... it's going to be a couple weeks. :ale: :ale: :ale:

hehe, tru dat - I went to my first THRC race Saturday

Also try Cy Fair hobbies on the Beltway and up at the Woodlands - I believe they're open and would have a basic part like that, though they are mostly a plane shop.
