Here's some pix of the nitro rigger i will be runnung at the Flint time trials , let me no what you think

It kinda looks like the pod racer that Aniken Skywalker was driving. LOL

Lots of motor with very little boat........

Seriously, I'd look at adding anoother boom tube at the nose of the tub. One dunk at speed, and I'll bet that the sponsons rip off. Hope that there is some flotation in the tub.

Just to satisfy my curiosity; Why to long, sharp nose on the sponsons? The long rear I understand, and is effective; but the long nose really isn't necessary for low drag until you get to the transonic range.
