Finished: M L's 1/6 Gas Scale "Winston Eagle Lobster"

[Patrick Mulvany]

John,

I have to commend you on a Great Build and completeing a very nice looking boat!!! But I'm sorry my friend with the sponsons on the rear makes it the 1990 Eagle the '89 did not have the rear sponsons and that was it's major downfall.. I still give congrats for finishing yours before i got mine done then again I have no place to race it yet??

Later!!

Pat

Your absolutely right Pat, I almost did not put those rear sponsons on, Oh well, guest I can always take them off. I did register it as an 89 and If I have too, I'll register it as a 90. Thanks and Happy Racing.

John's Winston Eagle has a new home for 2020. Miss Madison going to share space with the Lobster!!

The Winston looks great!

I'm building a 1/8 Miss Madison and would love to see some pictures of rear of the boat. The Newton plans leave a little bit to desire.

Thanx

Brad, Duke is in the final stages of shoe horn'en a J&G inline carb and pipe motor assembly into the Lobster, along with all new radio equipment and buttoning things up. Will have it ready soon for a test run at club test day in April 18th at Rip Tide's pond in St.Anne ,IL. ---- Our hope is that with the issues going on in our country, up-coming racing events don't get cancelled.
