You should be good to go if it has a teflon coating,i haven't been around acrylics for over 10 yrs.I am sure they have made big improvements in it since then.I was playing around with the fluoresent orange and green that was around back then.The stands look killer you are making,keep up the...

Kevin,put a couple drops of nitro fuel on a scrap piece and wipe it off right away.Your building these out of acrylic, right?

Stu Barr won the Twin shootout

Now if we could find someone to drive it....LOL

Where did you get the boat with Pennzoil on it?

Hammerhead is on the right track,go to a "signs now",or "fast sign" vinyl shop, they can do you a checkerboard pattern in whatever size squares and whatever size sheet you want out of "gerbermask",easy to apply after the first color is applied,reasonably priced also,it will get you the quality...

I don't think he got your hint Beau !!!

This is a good way to restrict waterflow to get the heat up on the motors.First,pull the waterline off at the motor,check the flow with your flow meter backwards thru the rudder.Now you know what it was flowing originally.Then,drill just the right size hole in the back of the rudder at the top...

it depends on your exhaust timing & how big of a prop you plan on pulling, I wouldn't start any shorter that 11-1/2".JMHO

I agree with Ralph,a risky deal if the boat doesn't perform like you expected.And where do you get a replacement sponson WHEN you tear one up,because if you are racing it,it will happen sooner or later,we all know that if you have raced them.

That looks like a paint scheme from a guy in Lakeland,Fl named Ron Lauderdale,I bought a 90 RR from him 10-12yrs ago,same paint scheme.It is not monocoat,he had all his boats painted at a local bodyshop.If you are seeing a little peeling in some places it is the clearcoat.He also had Ralph at...

Hey Ray,how have you been?No unfortunately I haven't grown any higher,maybe a little wider!!! I have been out of boats for over a year now,I am starting to get the itch again real bad though,I will be back again,just don't know when for sure.GOOD LUCK in Atlanta.

That's a great looking Roadrunner you're building there,keep up the good work.

I am cleaning out the garage,killer deals to be had.Here is a link to one auction,check out "My other auctions" to see the rest of the items.THX, Mitch http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...AMESE%3AIT&rd=1

Thanks A LOT for the compliments John,it took me quite a few years to learn enough patience to NOT try to win the race on the first lap or the first turn.I wiil be back into the boats again for sure,it is a matter of time.I have gotten in and out of racing 3 times in the last 10 years.There...

Absolutely right about the weight. The lighter it is the more difficult it is to drive due to stability especially in traffic. I have known racers that could drive standard Roadrunners well but could not handle an Extreme at all due to the light weight. Major difference. Like using a SAW...

Joe,Mark,thnx for the compliments,if I remember right Joe W. did NOT have to run the fourth round,he was already qualified after round three.I was thinking he ran the last heat to get a little better dial in on his boat for the shootout heat? I like the format idea of 3 final heats for the...

Thanks Clay,see you in Brandon? Is the video working for other people?I can't get it to play. Maybe it is because I am still running Windows 95?I don't know.

Bobby,everybody that came up from Dist.3 had a great time. We would do it again sometime,it just depends on the dates if they interfere with our race schedule or not.Can't wait to see the video on that last heat,I was so zoned in I didn't see anything going on unless it was 100 feet in front...
