Hey Wes and the Ellet gang. The Riptide crew is again very much looking forward to your race. It's our locked in go to destination. And you can count on any of us to help with the race. Just got to let us know what to do and when. Doug

Thanks Don and Mark. Going to pull the trigger on some Resin Research today. Doug

I've only used ACP Epoxy for all my building. They no longer sell it. Tried Fiberglast - no good. Won't use West as all the boats I've repaired over the years that was built with West were all very brittle. Question for the guys using the Resin Reasearch. The smallest package I find is a 3...

Dito - I would take the COCR Th1 +5. Will offer 130.00 shipped. Doug

Hi Jack. Thanks for the retrieve work you guys did this last weekend. If you can refit this new boat with what I see in the front of Rays pic I'll come over and help rig it!! Doug

Correction - One round Friday afternoon. Saturday maybe 2 or 3 rounds depending on how it goes. Then last round on Sunday plus the finals.

Open water Thursday afternoon 7/20 and again Friday morning 7/21. One round Friday afternoon. Two rounds Saturday 7/22. Fourth round and the fifth round finals on Sunday 7/23. Goal is to get allot of rounds in and get you all headed back home relatively early on Sunday. Doug

sbowden21 - I am going to assume there will be room due to the natural attrition of some of the nitro classes in D4 and D14. Or maybe not run 2-3 boat classes anymore. Because D4 and D14 is adopting the motor and cell count package this is a little more than a club thing. Not 100% sure but I...

I left electric awhile back with a quite a bit of experience. I have no desire to return but I am building 2 Fe Scales for a couple club members. They will be set up with 8S Graphine cells at 130c 6300mah, TP Motor 860 KV and the new Hydra controller. Follow what your friends and fella racers...

After 4 pages of BS finally got some useful information coming through. Thanks to Wes and the other guy's recommending Russ Stark. I don't see Russ Stark on the Zenoah Web site list of Distributors. Does he go by another name? I also will call BH Hansen back and inquire again about the...

Been trying not to throw anyone or any suppliers under the bus. Just simply wanted to know where and how to purchase a sealed in the original box engine. I must be lucky - of the 3 engines I bought his year - one had a bent crank, one had too many scuff marks for my liking and one had the top...

Sorry Mikey. Asked for original boxed engines from BH Hansen and he would not sell them to me that way. Neither would Gizmo and it sounds as though Bonzi won't either according to one post. To those that keep referring to this thread as a performance subject/concern - it is not.

My concern is not a performance issue. I chose not to have scuff marks in or on my engine in the case I get torn down. I also chose not to purchase rejected parts so that a certain few secret persons get the top dog measured parts. Still looking for the suppliers that can accommodate my...

Pretty weak excuse. The customer pays the shipping cost. The cost and time to re-pack makes no sense. One of the motors I received by a fore-mentioned supplier showed it had clearly been dis-assembled. As a young kid I was told not to play in a sand box with turds in it.

Tracking - USPS - 9505512337912293218876 Thanks - Doug
