    AC Cat question

    Has anyone ever seen an AC Nitro Cat run? Description says it's 36"x14". Never seen one myself.

      That was kind of vague. Sorry. How does it handle turns and/or traffic?

      I'm thining about putting together a Q kitty. Not much available for 6s. Lot's of choices to go fast but not much you can race.

      The AC Nitro is the right length. Other options are AM Sprint, AM Team Believer, maybe a Cheata although that's a bit smallish. Can't think of much else in the range.

        I'm sorry. All of the boat that I built were with nitro .45 - .80 engines. Its an extremely fast boat, very well constructed and corners excellent. It does not have any real bad tendencies.
        If your looking for the new Team believer, i have a white hull in stock with the new hatch, no rails and c/f inside.

          We have a Believer I could use. I just don't like them much. We have two Sprint cats too. Wanted something different.

          What kind of speed do you get when powered with nitro? I'm thinking low 70's. Are you running that fast with nitro?

            Not to get off on a tangent but those MMP hulls on your site are beautiful.

                Can't wait to see that go. How the hell do you turn it?

                We're racing this Sunday if'n yer bored.

                I only want to go Q because it looks like we'll have a few this summer. They look so fun too.

                  We ran in the 70's with them. AC also used to make a Flash Cat 35 which I like much better. mine was powered by a highly modified Picco 80 and was quite a handful to drive... Yes the MMP hulls have the nicest construction of all all the hulls I have ever sold. better then the AC boats

                        Any shots of the tunnel on one of these. I know the blast has those odd air traps.
