I'm looking to buy a 1/8 scale hydro to run in the namba district 3 scale unlimited class. I recently purchased a proboat Miss Bud (not to race) to see how I liked 1/8 scale and I was not happy with the way it handled. I want to build a boat I can race competitively. I am leaning towards a fiberglass hull. I do like the MHZ Miss Bud. Will a fiberglass hull be competitive against the scratch built wood hulls? I could go either way. I am new to racing but i have been building boats for many years. primarily in my younger years but I'm back and now the sky's the limit. I like to build high end high performance machines. I started out modding RTR boats, but that just didn't do it for me. I got the building buzz, but not the speed rush. Well my point being I'm all ears to any suggestions. Right now I'm just doing the research to find a hull to start with, then hardware, then engine, so on and so forth. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
