Check out Hobby Town USA, there is one on Cooper in Arlington I believe and there is one on Hulen in Fort Worth.

Depends on what you are looking for. If it's Traxxas then Roy's is the best, one of their guys is a factory sponsored racer and does R&D work for them. Especially on road cars.

Hobbytown is like going to Pep Boys for performance parts, they have some stuff but really have no idea what it is or what it does.

Wild Bills is the place to go for stadium trucks, RC10GTs specifically. Mike's is good for all around stuff.
