I still live in Indy. He didn't buy Westside Hobbies. The guy that did use to race R/c cars with me. Can't remember his name. The first thing he did was through away all the old stock,you know the stuff that Dale had ratholed away in the basement. probably 40+ years of hard to find parts. Needless to say he didn't stay in business long.
When did you live in Indy?
