    Hello from Louisiana

    I stopped at a local hobby shop yesterday that I just discovered. The shop is called Hub Hobby Shop and I ended up snagging a different kit and supplies from them. I picked up the Tamiya Nissan Skyline GTR (R32 Chassis), kit number is 24090. Very pleasant guys to speak to and very knowledgable.
