Mhz c5000 1850 extreme build

Here's the deal, I'm with Keith on taking the sticker off the motors period!! not for the reason to re use though. The reason is that it could peal off if it gets exposed to heat and block the water outlets, which could have a bad outcome. In the sign industry we use heat to remove vinyls, so this should be no different. With my luck, I better remove. But to answer the question where I get them from, I simply print them myself onto chrome vinyl to the exact size I desire. I also print the matching color inlays I use for the carbon work the same way. Attached is the result.

Use a heat gun, Melts the glue. Then place the sticker on the jacket. A hair dryer might even work if a women in your life has a fancy one.

This video is not for the faint of heart. Well.....maybe. Took her out this weekend. It was very foggy. Ran her on 457's cut to 52mm just for temp controls. Brought her in and put 470's cut to 60mm. GPS said just under 93 mph. Then disaster happened. Luckily Kent built her like a tank. She had 12S2P (almost 14 lbs of batteries in her). You can't see in the video but it hooked right and bounced of the chain link fence. Only $515.00 in damage. I got lucky.

"That ain't good" sums it up.

If that was my boat, I'm sure YouTube would have to yank the video due to language.

Ya man. Was a rough day for me. The cussing came after I cut the camera.

I have no idea what a both like that is worth, but I assume $515 is a small percentage. What did break? Good thing it wasn't painted yet.......was it?

Someone say "SHIP" sooooo soooo lucky!!! that could still of snapped in half. I then wonder if it be worth half the money? lol.... man Steve, I thought this was meant to be a "pretty" granny boat with reverse. Dear was I wrong! Good luck with the 100mph (cowboy) LOL

Ha. Nope not painted yet. Bent a set of Andy Brown props, a MBP Click Drive, a MHZ rudder bracket, MHZ hydraulics and chipped the gel coat. I have over 10K in it.

@ Steve, offshore cowboy!! LMAO or is it onshore?

[flraptor07]

Holy CRAP!!! I think I would have thrown up before I even got to it to see how bad it was. I glad it was minimal, it could have been a lot worse!! WOW!! I don't know what else to say............

You said you were going to run her hard, that was something else! Amazing it held it up so well. Very impressive!

[KillerDave]

Oh crap! I don't wanna put mine in the water now!!! :-/
It sounds like you got off easy.
Note to self, DO NOT POINT IT AT LAND BEFORE NAILING IT!
