Worthwhile R/C (Electric) shops locally?
I have a 1/10 scale Traxxas GraveDigger that i'm putting together when i get home from deployment and was wondering what shop everyone uses now in the 757 area?
I already got a Mamba max pro ESC +3800kv motor and some other aluminum upgrades...

You can leave it with me. I used to go all over the country racing these in highschool. Well not Traxxis but the Associated TC3 and a few others. I also worked at Hobby Hanger in Chantilly for 4 years doing this stuff everyday.
They haven't changed much on the Stampede (chassis on that GraveDigger). I still remember that one like the back of my hand. I use to work on customers Traxxis vehicles all the time. They sold well as good beginner cars.

how come your going with a SCT motor ? There is a shop in Hayes Va called Rc Pro Racing they have a pretty nice track I run a Short course truck over there sometimes.

I'd put the brushless system in it and be happy! I'm positive you won't wanna keep it a stampede for long, these trucks are the same as the bandit, rustler and slash. the only difference being chassis and width of a-arms.
I'd also stay away from the aluminum 99% is brittle cast crap, if it doesn't break it bends. Plus the weight added just sucks all around..
