    NAMBA SAW Time Trials - Almost Here [Nov 11,12,13]

    A long overdue facelift to the 3-time record setting Drifter - This time there will be no 70+ mph passes to be left on the table with brand new SSHSP - [Super Slippery Hi-Speed Paint], some subtle mods, a top secret prop from Chris & some fresh packs thanks to Mr. Ken Haines

      Killer, Tony! I will be bringing you a little present this trip. :) Maybe a replacement?? :)

      I'll be heading to Brian's next Wednesday, and we're carpooling down on Thursday!

      I think just two boats this trip, both TINY...

      M2-Hydro... let's see if we can break the 90mph barrier on a single cell

      N1-Hydro... One more record I think I should have. This is Pat McDonald's old 4C-NiMH Hydro that was given to my by Dan Proulx under the conditions that 1) I race it, and 2) I get video of it running! Happy to oblige!!

      Looking forward to it!!

            I guess all that's left to do is load the car and start driving south...

              Shouldn't the flotation go inside the boat ?

                      I think the MDF shelf might add too much weight once it gets wet and throw off your COG. I prefer to use composite myself.
