Just ask the Australians who allowed themselves to be disarmed how that went for them.

It's amazing how these progressive left-wing nuts are always screaming about the conservatives "destroying democracy" when they are pulling crap exactly like this in supporting these heavy-handed government agencies that intimidate and strip people of their rights and government agencies that...

I'm not sure that this is the issue here, but I have found that good bearing life is also related to the technique of pickleing the motor after the race. Starting with disconnecting the fuel line at the carb and hooking up an ignitor up and rolling the motor over (assuming that the boat hadn't...

1/8th or 1/6th scale classes are based upon unlimited hydroplanes and the GP class would be a limited class.

I/8th scale wouldn't work if you wanted to race in the scale class, but they would be very cool Sport 40's

I have one, I will dig it out this afternoon or tomorrow and post some photos.

The Honda brings back a ton of memories as I hopped up a 750 for road racing. Clip ons, tank, shocks and forks along with cylinder head work for better flow and compression, bigger carbs and Yashamira headers and pipe and it was fast, yep almost as fast as a stock KZ 900 Kawasaki in a drag race:).

I have watched the Huskies all year and they had a great season, BUT I didn't watch last night. It's defense that wins championships at all levels of football and the Michigan defense was #1 and Washington was #97 and that was going to be that. For example, in the Super Bowl the #1 offense has...

Doug Kirk, longtime scale and District 8 racer lost his battle with cancer at 6:45 this morning. Doug entered into Hospice care on Saturday and has moved onto his new eternal home for the ages. Doug was a man that had his priorities straight when it came to model boat using. With Doug it was...

I prefer to use West Systems with the 205 quick hardener along with the 410 filler mixed until it's thick but still spreadable. Much more durable than bondo and still sands easy. A used utility knife blade makes a great precision spreader. Just make sure you've given the cowling a good...

K&S also makes 5/32" aluminum tubing that fits nicely over the 4-40 rod

Or go with waterproof gear and plug your battery straight into the receiver so there's no switch to fail at all.

A little loose is better than a little tight because you never want the drum to pinch the rod against the crank if the motor gets hot (too lean or no water) because it will wipe out the bearings, break the crank pin or the rod. You definitely want the rod to have 3-4 thousands of clearance on...

I shipped an 1/8th scale a couple of months ago FED EX from Seattle to Florida for $245 and built a cheapo crate for $50. But yes please check it out with $1000 insurance. Thanks, Mike

Thanks. I kind of doubt that there's going to be anyone from the Pacific NW there but maybe someone will see this and come forward. You have a sale plus shipping costs of course if you change your mind.

Hi Chris, how much for just the hull and cowling of the gas 7474 (and if you are willing to do it) shipped to 98155? Also, if you are willing the motor mount as well or tell me what it is so I can try to find one? Thanks, Mike

I don't know Mike. I know one thing and that's that the truck series guys need to clean up how they race. Ridiculous just dumping anyone that gets in your way. I ran what was known as the Super Stock class back in the 70's. Retired steel bodies Winston West cars but with a 5 liter displacement...

This time they found all the nuts and didn't leave any at all for the squirrels wearing bowties:cool:! Across the board those Roush/Yates motors made for great grunt off the corners and handling down the straights.

How about them Fords winning all three NASCAR top level divisions last weekend.

Looks like it should be in a James Bond movie!
