Yep thats a cat allright this thing was quick and turned well, the drivers name is Chuck, he came up with Flyguy, the hull is a 20yrs old!!

It went well I won the lsh hydro main, and Dick won the mono main (again:D) The hydro main I was leading and watched all the other hydros flip over behind me!!!! in the monos/cat race The sv and the cat were flying, I put my boat on its lid trying to catch them, and gave the win to Dick and rod came in 2nd with his heavily modified traxxas villian!!

I remember seing those cats @ the LHS and in the tower flyers back in the 80s. I have let a few go on ebay. I may grab the next one. Great to see they can run well.
