Phil's Hobby Shop

recently moved to northern pinellas county, only to find the economy has killed the hobby shop. i have been out of the hobby for 4 years due to this myself. buy, i did find phils shop on park street and made the drive to check it out. phil has what im looking for, nitro r/c cars and parts. he has all the major name brands, traxxas, hpi, ofna, losi, os......now he doesnt have everything, but who does? he will gladly order anything you need with no shipping charges. phil and the staff i have met are polite and helpful to the best of their knowledge. i am going back today to buy some ofna stuff to re-enigineer the throttle linkage on my hpi savage. thinking of buying an eflite heli too. phils prices are generally the same as ebay....no shipping or waiting for mail lady. dont hesitate to shop here! the only problem you will find is sometimes phils is too busy....... because there is no where else to go, unless you want to drive all the way to north dale mabry in tampa/carrolwood area......no thanks!! more
