The finest shop around. Extremely honest and fair. Very generous with his time to show my son what his car needed and didn't need. No upsell at all. If you're not coming here you're going to the wrong place. Travel you won't be disappointed read more

ATTENTION LOCAL BUSINESS OWNER BLATANTLY MAKES HOMOPHOBIC COMMENT TO NEW CUSTOMER In the past few days I decided to pick up a new hobby to pass some time during the winter. Just yesterday I picked up an RC car off of marketplace and was toying around with it outside and quickly found out that it would be more suitable on a track rather than the narrow roads around my trailer park. I did some searching on google and found a hobby store not too far from me that has an indoor race track meant for these things. Before heading there today, I called the shop and politely inquired about their race track and what the process is for using their track, assuming there would possibly be a sign up, or some other barrier to entry before you can actually utilize the course. The owner informed me that the track is open on weekdays for practice runs, and that they do races on fridays. Not ever mentioning that there is a fee, or that they require an audit of the machine before operating it on their track. So I thought cool, seems like a chill place where people can leisurely go and have fun with their toys, and maybe the community is pretty welcoming to new hobbyists. Well, I was apprently very wrong about that. After maybe 10 minutes of racing my little toy car around their track, I decided to go check out the shop to see if there would possibly be an option for a car that would perform better on their track instead of my "cheap little amazon" car. So I go up to whom I presume to be the owner to ask him if he would possibly have any recommendations. Mind you he paid no attention to me up until this moment because he was talking to an employee/customer for quite some time. I was then quickly shamed because apparently I did not understand the rules, one of them being that the tires on my rc car have tread on them and will "fuck up the track". Shortly after I was also scolded for apparently not paying the $15 track fee, when there is literally no indication that there is any barrier to entry or that you have to pay before using the track. I would have gladly paid the fee and followed the rules if the owner actually treated me like a customer, rather than some guy coming in to purposely mess up their race track. I then explained to him that I did not hear about any fee when I talked to him on the phone, and that there are no signs located anywhere in the store stating the rules. He then responded with, "when the fuck is anything free in the past 100 years". Which I totally understand, but maybe you should mention that to your customers before they come into the store, or maybe not have the door to the track wide open where anyone should just walk in. I was then told to "get the fuck out of their store and never come back", and as I was walking out this person blatantly yelled at me, "yeah get the fuck out you fucking faggot". So unfortunately my expectations for a welcoming community in a new hobby ruined, all because of one person that should not be running a business if they're going to treat people like that. PLEASE DO NOT GIVE THEM YOUR BUSINESS read more

I needed a hobby shop to help me fix my RC. The owner not only fixed it, but took extra time to fix the mistake that I did and explained why it was wrong. The car runs so much better. Thank you Clinton. Keith read more

Great place, great people and great track has everything in the store front of car brakes

On a quest to find the best hobby shops in the area.... I've been traveling around to the few hobby shops that are left these days on a quest to find the overall best hobby shop. I love the RC car hobby. trying to find knowledgeable people can be difficult at best. First impression: trying to find a parking spot around the hobby shop can be a bit difficult. They do have parking in the back and I was able to find a spot midday on a Tuesday. But I'm guessing forget about it on weekends. The front portion is the retail store and the back portion is a mid-size dirt track. Complete with a pit area where you can work on your cars. I was pretty impressed if you like electric cars. Probably out of luck if you like your nitros. The store portion was organized. Of course everywhere I go I find all the Traxxas RC stuff. Traxxas really has the hooks in deep with the various hobby shops. The shop was stocked adequately. Guess I was expecting to see more variety of various RC stuff. There were planes and some boats around. But obviously RC cars is there sweet spot. Regarding the staff: I must admit this is where they excel. The owners is a very nice lady who started the biz back in 2011. The employee I first spoke with was new, but very friendly. The owner Kristen came over and we got into a nice conversation. She was very attentive and helpful. She answered my questions. I told her I was new to the area and she was happy I stopped out. Final thoughts: I definitely will be going back as I like that they have a repair shop. Cost is $30 per hour which is pretty standard for the industry. I'm about 40 minutes away, but I feel it's worth it to deal with a knowledgeable hobby shop. The only other close hobby shop would be in West Allis near Milwaukee. I'll be heading there next in my quest for the best hobby shop! Only things I would caution are that it's tight parking as the downtown area is busy. And inventory in stock maybe be a bit slim. Good job done Burlington Hobbies read more

Clinton and Mike are outstanding. Brought my dead Traxxas nitro truck in and within minutes Clinton started working on it. Can't believe I walked out of the shop with a running machine especially with everything that was wrong with it. Clinton has a world of knowledge and is very professional. This was my first visit but not my last. I highly recommend if your into RC. Thanks guys read more

WHAT A FUN PLACE. Brought my kids and we had a blast. The track experience is fun for all aged. The people are nice and they even host birthday parties. You will find Clint the Supreme Comander in charge is most helpful with questions and repairs to your radio control cars. Also say hi to Kelly when you are there, she is amazing. Check them out and come race Friday nights or practice. read more

My son an I had a great time racing around for the afternoon. The staff was nice and helpful, the shop has a great selection of parts (which you will need) and they have food, snacks and drinks. We had a great experience and will be back for sure. read more

I've been out of RC for quite some time. That being said, with the high-tech electronics (brushless/lipo) and a completely different type of buggy, I needed some guidance, Clint and staff were super helpful getting me back on "track"! (Intentional pun). Fully stocked shelves along with a very well-kept track with an awesome surface. Will be going back soon. read more

Burlington hobbies & RC Track - Hobby Shops Near Me - Burlington, Wisconsin

This is a great hobby supply shop which I would recommend for any artistic watercolor or acrylic paint supplies. While they have a great selection of male-oriented hobbies - my focus is on artistic supplies which make it easier to find materials local to the area that are more specialized. I would recommend them for their service and friendly approach to all customers . read more
