The guys took the time to answer all my questions, give great recommendations, and make sure I found exactly what I was looking for. The selection is absolutely amazing. They have a huge variety of RC vehicles across so many categories -- cars, trucks, airplanes, boats, and much more. Their Traxxas selection in particular is impressive, with tons of different models, parts, and accessories to choose from. Whether you're just getting into the hobby or you've been into RC for years, there's a lot to see here. I was about to catch a flight after visiting the store, and the team went above and beyond to help me carefully pack everything I bought so I could travel with it. I ended up leaving with a Kyosho Mini-Z and two SCX30s! Amazing selection, outstanding service, and a team that genuinely enjoys the hobby and helping customers. I'll definitely be coming back whenever I'm in San Antonio. Highly recommended!

Magnatech Slot Car Raceway is one of the last surviving electric model car (slot) raceways open to…read morethe public. There were thousands of 'commercial' slot car tracks in the USA in the late 1960's and 1970's; there were a half dozen racing centers in the greater Atlanta area alone. A lot of things caused the slot racing centers to close one by one- people not being as interested in hobbies and the rise of computer video games being a couple of reasons. In the last few years, there has been a revival of sorts with a certain amount of people who were glued to computer screens in the 1980s and 1990s playing "adventure" and "virtual reality" games, discovering it was actually more fun "playing" in 3-D. So hobbies like model railroading, R/C airplanes, and yes slot car racing have made a comeback. For a change, more new raceways have been opening in the last few years in the USA than have been closing. All that having been said- Magnatech Slot Car Raceway is one of the best-equipped and best run model car raceways in North America. Magnatech Slot Car Raceway is about people having fun and inviting their inner child to come out to play. Rental racing cars are available so that you and your buddy can pretend you are Ricky Bobby and Cal Naughton Jr. to "Shake and Bake" around their awesome 8-lane track. By the same token, children are invited for hours of family fun; Magnatech Slot Car Raceway can even arrange a memorable racing birthday party for children aged six and up. Call them for special package deals for a day of fun for any sized group. Does your company want to encourage team building? How about a team racing event? Drivers, pit crews, team leaders... miniature racing teaches the same working together for success lessons that "pro" racing instills. Call the raceway now to plan and schedule your corporate event. Stop in sometime and check it out for yourself- but keep an open mind that this is something intended to be a pre-digital age entertainment. It may not be the right sort of thing for impatient or short attention span children or adults.
