As you are a Manc, I'd suggest
JE Spares or
Roundabout Toys depending on where you are in town.
Bury's club president and font of all Ansmann knowledge Stu Wood works at JE Spares.
Dave at Roundabout runs Roundabout Raceway.
Pop to either shop and talk to the guys there and they will fill you in on all you need to know to slot straight back into the racing scene.
