Got home last night and all unpacked. Defeated in my effort to match the European 1-Cell Hydro record of 88mph, but successful in finding about 50 ways NOT to go that fast. ;-)

It was another fun trip, highlighted by Brian's epic P-Hydro runs, any Tony's great stories!

I'll add some pictures and videos tomorrow once I get them downloaded.

I'm going to do something I rarely do: Here's the entire setup.
Hull- Raptor tub, SAW front sponsons, no rears.
Motor- TP3650 2Y 3080kV Thanks Jun Lin!
ESC- CastleCreations Edge Lite 200 with added cooling tubes and conformal coating. Thanks Joe!
Batteries- Dinogy Graphene (4S2P 3300's). Thanks mark!
Prop- ABC 1823-19-38(2)cll S/B (snowman prep). Thanks Jim!
Driveline- .150 double square cable with teflon liner into Hyperformance outboard stub shaft. Thanks Dave!

So here's the reason for posting the info: It's essentially an off the shelf system. It's proof of what can be done with the incredible equipment that's available to all of us. It's also a reminder how careful we all need to be with how and where we run these things, be safe. Last but not least, it's a starting point and an invite to anyone who might be interested in joining us at time trial events.

Now that's the spirit! I like where this is going.
