Will be there Saturday for sure... hopefully will have a Tunnel ready to race by then. Hydro is all ready to go, complete with some improvements over the last time out. Time to try to compete with that thing for a change.

Am going to try to have the new Gas Mono ready for Sunday as well, but we'll see what kind of time I have between now and then.

Do you mix nitro, gas, and electric in Open Hydro?

Yes! In fact... Eric won a heat of Open Hydro with his P-Spec Hydro at the last race in a head-to-head race with a very fast Gas Hydro... Was pretty fun to watch, though I couldn't help thinking that his little wooden rigger was right on the verge of being made into toothpicks each time they entered a turn together...:popcorn2:

Terry,
Any NAMBA legal hydroplane can run. Your 1/7 scale is actually a legal S Sport Hydro. The only problem is it turns the wrong direction.

Eric had nothing to worry about. That gas rigger only eats monos. :doh:

You going to have your Gas Hydro back in time for this race?? Maybe I'll have to think twice about bringing out the new mono... :rofl:

KIDDING! You couldn't have taken the old one out if I wouldn't have been stalled on the course... We'll try to keep it running this time around.

Well, Darin I'll just flip the reverse switch on the throttle, hold the transmitter upside down and backwards and go for it!

NOT!

I guess I could re-rig it to turn right. Sure would feel funny though.
