Stan has jumped into this great hobby with both feet,he has electric ,nitro, gas boats. He is a 6 time National Champ Buggy and Drag Champ.Welcome to one of the best Dist. in the country.
 
I really appreciate the welcome and look forward to meeting all of you at the races. Hopefully the weather will cooperate this weekend and so i can put the Thunderboat in the water. Dick did such a good job on the boat it should be a shelf queen, but that baby is going in the water.

Look forward to meeting you James (Stan)

Dick did a nice job on your T-Boat, I like the colors.
 
Watch out fellas...looks like he races hard...

I found a pic of one of his funny cars....stan-burn-down-fc.jpeg
 
Hey Kent, that picture brings back memories, 13 hour drive to the Nationals in Lynwood IL.racing on a first class track. Making some practice runs and the right rear tire exploded launching the car into space at 100 mph, and falling into a chain link fence. Lipo's and fence = fire, The good news was the backup car was faster and brought home the trophy. Dick has already told me he has wood and fiberglass and doesn't mind repairing at the lake.
 
Holy crap! Lol! Good thing for the (faster) backup car. Hey I also saw a clip of you running the rails....good stuff! You're gonna have a blast this year boating! 1st class people as well as drivers...

Yep...i've seen Dick rebuilding smashed boats..."Got any ca?"

You are definitely in a good place Stan, we have some of the best racers,engine builders,cd's,and boat builders in the business. Since your a world champ in other r/c arenas,you will bring some good knowledge to d12 as well.

Last time Dick was in Northern. VA he cleaned out all the hardware stores of epoxy. LOL Not his fault. He just seemed to have a target on his back that weekend.

You are going to have a blast Stan. Just watch out for William Whetstone (ww29). If he finds any incriminating pictures on the internet they WILL be posted!!!.... ;)
