No it is not a kit you can get, Buddy gets the ID award. Not sure what paint scheme, I have a HIpoint hydro too that may be US. Lot of Bob J input on this build. We will see how it goes. Longer wider than a Zipp but shorter hull and taller sponsons than a Blazer.
HA too many projects now, a epoxy glass one would be a bit lighter, we have to see this one run first.So when do we get a glass version to order
I had the hotpipe on the old boat ran good. I got the new Cooper Cobra internal stinger pipe for this one.
Phill Zippkit are comming out with a new T boat that is 2-3" longer and 1-2" wider. There going to display it at Toleto show next month. Then that boat will be NAMBA legal..Joe is planning to Build a GAS T boat to race at the NATS this year.His Friend Rick Reisenger is going to help him with the setup on it,since joe was impressed on how fast Ricks T boat is.
Well that is good news, I sure liked my Zipp Rocket roundnose
Joe wasnt to build the drop sponson. He said why build something bigger that can cause more weight =slower speeds. He's trying to find info/pics on his friends dad's J-72..When joe was 8 years old he had a friend that his dad raced a smaller T boat with a 327 chevy in it. awayed helpping his friend and his dad working on it.
No hj. Joe is building a drop sponson..zippkit is making a bigger thunderboat to be namba legal . It will be 2-3 incs longer and 1-2 incs wider.. joe petro told joe to wait until he see that boat at toleto show.. we don't. Race in namba..impba all the way..so why build a bigger boat=heavyer boat since we don't race in namba races anyways.
My boat will have the front cowl over the engine, the new Zipp sounds good LMK how it looks.
joe will get pics of it and ill post it for you..he got to go to toleto anyways,because were painting 2 JAE's for Ron Olson. So Phill you still didnt answer my question,how many hours do you have so far in that T boat build?
