It is with regret that the Reality Racing shop will close at the end of January 2013. With the current recession we find ourselves in and so many customers now choosing to buy their RC requirements online, the shop is no longer a financially viable concern.
All stock items are now heavily discounted but in addition to this, I can still place special orders although these will not carry the discount.
I would like to thank all those that have supported Reality Racing over the years and look forward to racing at SHMCC through 2013.

Very sad news indeed But fully understandable given the current financial situation and drop in people taking up RC as a hobby in general.. I'd like to thank Terry for all of his support for hobby and SHMCC in particular.. As SHMCC members we've enjoyed discount on purchases, as Drivers we've enjoyed Reality Racing Cup and as a club we've enjoyed Terry's support and help at various events and meetings I'm sure everyone who has visited Terry and the Shop will join me in whishing him all the best for the future! Fingers crossed although the physical shop will be closing, RR-RC.com may continue on line and I'm sure Terry will be keeping us all informed.. Also please keep your eyes peeled for news on the 2013 Reality Racing Cup at SHMCC

Very sad news indeed. I hope everything turns out OK for Terry and we still see him at the club.
End of an era and another nail in the high street coffin.

That is a great shame Terry, it must have been an awful decision for you to make but I guess reality sometimes cannot be ignored. Many thanks for all the help and service you have given myself and Craig over the years and of course to the club aswell.

Think I might wonder down to Reality Racing this Saturday around 3pm to shake Terrys hand and thank him for all of his support and help and to wish him success in the future.. I'm sure there are a lot of SHMCC members who owe some thanks to Terry and the shop..
Anyone else care to join me in giving the shop a proper send off this Saturday at 3pm???
Would be great to see some old faces and some new ones as well!

Thanks for the coffee and shortbread Terry, sad to see the shop close but great to see everyone turn out and give her a good old SHMCC send off!
Really looking forward to seeing the new Reality Racing website and being one of your 1st customers :-)

Sad news. Yet another outlet gone. Hope the staff are not too badly affected by this and find alternative employment soon.
Sparky.
