I think with this motor (3000 KV) that it would be a fun N2 racer. anything more than 30mph and it takes on a whole new challenge of keepin her bottom wet.

Well that did'nt take you long. Looks good Jesse. I'm always interested to see what you come up with next :laugh:. What is the tape on the deck for? Did you crack it?

Naw, its what the offshore racers have. I didn't have any numbers to put on, but take a look at the powerboat p1 guys, they all have em standard so that their number can be easily read from above and the side - otherwise it could get lost in the team graphics.
