I'm done.
Carl as you should already know, I am not "working on it". My boats without pads have been raced for almost ten years. They have won races such as the Tunnel Champs and Hobart. I'm not putting them out any longer after the abuse I received on another thread. I've known how to make a boat turn and handle very well without pads for years. When all of the supposed experts said and still say it can't be done, I need to remind everyone that not only can it be done but it has been done years ago. But after the last thread went south I stated then I would not make anymore. I'm not gonna give it away, even though the answer is right in front of your eyes on every single model tunnel boat made.
The experts will need to figure it out for themselves...
