Truex Jr. & JAE strike at Huntsville record trials

[mtruex]

Well since I'm in Richmond to test cars and it's raining let's talk boats! Some more details from the record runs for those that asked.

The 21 oval record was set with my old JAE 21 I built before the plans were released, weighs 3lb 14oz , novarossi 21DD and Bouchie pipe, prop was a modified 1650.

21 saw was my own design JAE style boat, a homemade turned around 7 port novarossi and Bouchie pipe,prop was a modified 2047

45 saw was my own design JAE style boat, cmb vac45 and Bouchie pipe, prop was a modified 2160.

I used Odonnell 287 plugs and 65% Odonnell Punch fuel on both 21 engines , and I used Odonnel 287 plugs and 70% technology fuel for the 45 record.

Congratulations Martin!

Thanks KP, your up next

 

[mtruex]

Very impressive times, congratulations!

Thanks Terry, you know how much work goes into it!

 

[mtruex]

If it was easy anyone could do it! The weather is just part of the deal to set the records, sometimes the answer is no... Good luck guys!

Paul

Right on Paul, missed seeing you this time!

 

[mtruex]

Awesome. You da Man!

John

Thanks, maybe I'll see you in a few weeks!

[Paul Traufler]

Just at the lake, David Hall set a T Hydro 1/4 2 lap record 14.6 sec, fastest 2 lap ever... Sorry Martin!

 

[Ron Olson]

I heard , way to go David. That boat is a missle!!!! JAE with a ton of power under the hood. Yes sir!!!

 

[Mark Bullard]

Here is David's new FE Motor. But I think he will need a bigger boat and a lot of battery's.

We have just did a test run on this motor and putting the rest of it together.

3300hp @ 3600rpm

 

[Paul Traufler]

I have some videos... however I will only use them to blackmail David... oh never mind that is a long story... There is a video of his run, it is on David's phone so he has the control on where it gets sent to. Was not pretty but it was FAST!!!

 

[Ron Jefferson]

Huge accomplishment Martin. You can tell you've done your homework. Good Job!!!!

 

[JamesShields]

Congratulations Martin!

Don't you know you're supposed to keep all this top secret?

After all there's millions of dollars on the line and sponsorship money to worry about. Oh, I forgot, that's your day job!

Care to share what your SAW boats weigh in at? I'm doing some carbon stuff too but wondering if I'm running a little heavy.

 

[mtruex]

Lol Terry! The speed is in the details, I learned a Lot on the 21. Took me a few years to get the same boat up to speed. Applied what I learned to the 45 and it was much easier !

21 is 2-14. Can't remember 45 but I will let u know.

Thanks much!

Yup, seams once you start to figure out what makes them go fast it's easier from there.

And it sure ain't just one thing!

Awesome Martin,now would it be too much to ask for you to get that black car in the front row? Say p1. All your boating friends are pulling for a great year in both your boating and Nascar worlds. I think a JAE sticker in the grille might just give you enough downforce to pull it off.

 

[DON MAHER]

Mikey,

Martin just needs to put some "Bouchie"pipes on that black car LOL
