Ran my TS-3 today!

[Bill Gibson]

Well, i FINALLY got a boat wet today! Go Fast Foley and me got together and played boats for a few hours....Man! It felt great to run a boat again after like...8 months! My TS-3 ran really good for the first time out....its very stable, turns really good, and seems to have fair speed....to me, its a much better boat overall than the TS-2...is it competitive? I have no idea, but i sure had a good time runnin it!It still needs a bunch of tweaking im sure, as it kinda hopps at high speed 3/4 into the straight.Tom thinks i might need to put a little more negative angle into the motor so ill give that a try.At least ive got something to work with so im pretty happy at the moment! Before we packed up, Tom let me make a few laps around the pond with his Gas Thunderboat...what a COOL boat to drive!Really smooth....THANKS Tom! FUN DAY!

AWESOME , Im jealous .

Me and Premo met up at the pond to give him the Mod VP- But I was too lazy to drag all the crap out to run just the B-Mod

Hopefully the job gets pushed back so I can race but it aint looking like it.

I can see you smiling ear to ear driving the Thunderboat

Foley get his Tunnel wet yet Bill ?

Glad to hear you made it back to the lake Bill! I have two TS 2's that belong to my two God Sons. They arent the easiest things to drive so I would be interested to see that TS 3! Who knows maybe I can make some changes to these and get them a little more stable for the boys.

Andy, i really hope you get to make the race! Tom's got the boat in his greedy little hands...the rest is up to him now...he did mention that he picked up an O.S. for it, so we'll see! Ron, i ran a TS-2 for 2/3 years and it appears to me that the TS-3 is a much better boat...Alden, down here in good ol sunny Fla, we have some of the BEST tunnel racers in the country..man, these guys love thier tunnels, and the speeds they get out of em are mind boggling and they all KNOW how to drive em!!Linx, Vision craft, Cobra, and God knows what else....ive seen these boats run and have even pitted for a few guys that run em..they are all AWESOME boats....i got a TS-3 to add to the mix cause all these guys seem to have a good time MESSIN with each other!! Now ill probably get "messed" with! :lol: Otta be FUN! the cool thing with most of these guys is they will go out of their way to help me get better....thats why i still enjoy the hobby so much.....
