Sounds like we're getting close to getting the MV airborn. I've ordered some sponson Mods from Jerry Dunlop and a top secret pipe that is supposed to get the thing close to 50 with the stock AUQ engine, I may cut out the boost port though. I'm going to start there and see what happens. Thanks...

Thanks Anthony, I appreciate your input!

I didn't get any response the first time I posted this question so I will try again with a new title since only 43 people looked the last time. Hey Guy's, so OS discontinued our beloved OS CVR-M .18 non pull start for what ever reason. What are your thoughts on taking the EB Mod 18 TZ (P)-T...

Hey Guy's, so OS discontinued our beloved OS CVR-M .18 non pull start for what ever reason. What are your thoughts on taking the EB Mod 18 TZ (P)-T W/11K Slide carb and pulling off the air cooled heat sink and machining the head button to accept the water cooled jacket from the AUQ .18 motor or...

We're supposed to be racing in Camarillo that weekend. I Hope my boat is ready, if not I'll probably just run my MAUS sport 40 II. What is the boost port? The guy that told me about the liner mod just shot me a pic of the cut out port in the liner. Should I do this before or after I break in the...

WOW! A reply from the man himself! Well I've got your turn fin sitting here and will be sharpening it up tonight, and props are on order (sorry I got em from Andy Brown mostly cause he does all of my props. but I did buy your cable grease! lol ) How do you feel about that AQU motor mod where you...

Props are on order from Andy Brown as we speak, and I will be adding stringers, bulkheads and glassing the inside of the hull this weekend! Thanks for the input! Tom

OK guy's it's finally here! I thought it would never come but with the holiday's and all, shipping has been all screwed up. Well it's here now, a brand new bright yellow Miss Vegas. Tonight I will begin stripping her down for the build. I'm not sure why it's called ready to run when from...

Anyone know of Rod Geraghty? Through hours of exhaustive research I have finally found a name of the guy that modified the OPS 45 in my MAUS sport 40. Now my only task to try and track him down and see if he can help me get this thing singing! I believe that he is back east some place. Tom

Thank you, is this guy still around?

Thanks for the advice Anthony!

Thanks for the reply.

Yea, all the guy's in my club are running the Miss Vegas. My best friend has the fastest one I've ever seen with a custom motor built by the guy guy that does the motors for Twisted Liquid. I guess he's only done up two other motors like this one and let me tell you it's fast! I've seen him Kick...

WOW! As a novice racer I have been worrying about buying all the fastest and latest equipment just so that I can compete. But as you all can tell I am really, really green. I have spent a lot of money on stuff so far and don't have anything ready to race as of yet, although I think I may be...

Mufflers!!!!!! They should be banned from the pond! :o Sport 40 II is where I'll be then. So what do you know about the Maus hull, now known, produced, and sold by Hyperformance motorsports as the SX45?
