I went to the pond today after work to run my p-spec sport it got 2 laps and the spedo exploded so bad that theres tar in the bottom of the hull about the 2.5 to 3 inches in diameter. Its horrible.

Denatured alcohol will remove most of the black and stink as will isopropyl alcohol. Don't be stingy with the alcohol and old towels...

Pretty sure they have them right next to the wire stretchers!
If my boats upside down then who owns the one I thought I was driving the last two laps?

I love that smell. Smells like speed. I think it changes your DNA. If I just think about it right now I can almost taste it on my pallet. Like a ghost scent you never shake.
Fast orange hand cleaner strips it out of there and covers up the left over stink. I think GoJo makes that now.Noisy personComment

Gotta try that! Have some in the shop, try to de-stink my 29" clone. Kept a Bounce sheet in it so it didn't stink up my "office".If my boats upside down then who owns the one I thought I was driving the last two laps?Comment

Over the years I have burnt speedos at all most every pond (one time or another) I raced at all over the country. It is caused from running too slow (1/2 throttle) with too big of a prop.

about putting the smoke back in, try putting it in a plastic bag, blow a couple of bong hits in the bag and seal it up, come back after your buzz is gone!!!! that's the only thing I can think of!!!!! If the speedo doesn't work after that then just toss it.We call ourselves the "Q"Comment
