Paul, I know that when it comes to any particular hull a lot depends on the setup and who is driving the boat. This is true with almost any competitive hull. Obviously you know how to get the most out of your boats and make them perform to the best of their ability. The proof of just how good...

Patrick got 51 mph out of the ferite magnets if that is not fast enough then what would be. In most oval racing you are not going 51 mph now. 51 MPH out of 4 cells is absolutely amazing and I applaud Patrick for his efforts and success. But you are not comparing apples to apples here Ray...

It looks like 4 cell racing is flatlining! I think you are right on with this statement Kevin. At the NAMBA Nationals the last 2 years there was minimum interest. I believe in the 4 cell hydro class this year they ended up with only 2 entries (not even enough to make it a legal class. I don't...

I'm in for a donation. I like this board and am willing to help out. How about this-- I will pickup the $85.00 conversion fee. Tom e-mail me and let me know where to send the money to and it's on it's way. [email protected] Larry Larson

You the man Ray!! Ray has always been very supportive of our hobby. Many thanks Ray.

Steve I run a 8XL and a 45/55 on mine. It's real tight on run time with the 45/55. With the 42/55 it makes it a little more comfortable with the run time and the heat issue. Larry

Dennis is absolutely right the after plane is critical to how a rigger will run through the corners. The key to getting a good running fast electric rigger is hitting the sweet spot with CG, after plane, and angle of attack all married up making a well balanced rigger. All of these variables...

Hi Paul, Boy if you would just bite the bullet and get a 3D Lynx you wouldn't need that JR and 2 other Hitec's. You could get it all done with just one. But then again who are we going to get to pry that JR radio out of your hand so we can convert you to nothing but Hitec?? Good to see that...

Hi all just thought everyone would like to take a look at the new Crumbgrabber web site and see exactly what Dick and Larry have taken on as our new attitude. Check it out http://www.drcwebservices.com/teamcrumbgrabber.htm

Doug, I do put my ESC just inside the transom. As far as the motor waterproofing it's almost impossible to get the motor waterproof. I seal the extra screw holes in the base with silicone. I put a piece of tape over the exposed bearing and between heats I flush the motor out with contact cleaner...

Not a problem Jeff if you ever need a little help just give me a shout. Larry

Nice forum guys!! A breath of fresh air for me. Looking forward to some interesting conversations. Thanks for having an alternative.

OPC Tunnel what a great class and one of my favorites!! Sure would like to see some more interested stirred in this class. Fun to watch and even more fun to run. I personally would like to see the class stay as a 12 cell open motor class. They are not the fastest boats in the world with that...
