Hi all,
This year's International Model and Hobby Expo looks like it may be
interesting.
Usually lots of new products are unveiled at these shows.
The show will run from Sept. 11-14, at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center
in Rosemont, IL. (Rosemont, IL is at Chicago's O'Hare airport)
Take a look:

I have never been to one of these shows, but have heard that they are pretty
cool. I may make the trip this year, to check out the new stuff the industry
has to offer.
If anyone else is planning to attend, let me know.
Shhhh, if the wife finds out WHY I'm headed for Chicago... I may have to leave
the credit cards at home.

I will be going. It use to be a BIG show still big but I dont think it
will be like it use to be. Times are tough you know. Last year HPI didnt
show, dont know about this year. They said it costs them nearly $50,000
to go to that show.
This year CEN RACING wont be there (was wanting to check out their new
MT).
AE will have their new MT.
Load up on free decals free magazines. I usually make 3-4 rounds
gathering multiple times:)

I believe the only day the general public can go is that Sunday unless
they changed that again.

OK I guess I should have checked your link first. Wouldnt you know they
made it open Saturday too. I read they will let a person buy stuff too.
It wasnt like that before. Hmmm maybe Saturday will be the better day to
go.
