He races the bigger toys, he wants a scaled down version. Check his signature, he runs the Lucas Oil Catamaran! Pretty cool but it still ain't a V!
I'd like to see some V hulls in the 36"+ range that are scaled versions of a Cigarette 38' Top Gun, or 42' Tiger, or 42 X, or even a 50' Marauder...Maybe even a CC, kind of like the new Cigarette 1040 SternDrive

TFL Hobbies.. New Boats

I am not a Donzi fan.... However I did order a toy 40" Donzi hull from Keith....
I wish the "Classic" open cockpit hatches would make a comeback in the small toy boat land, I am not too much of a fan for the "bubble" compartments.. haha

EDIT: Order from Keith is now a 34" V, Donzi requires too much $ in the go department.... Lol

We need a Cigarette hull! A CENTER CONSOLE would be the coolest toy ever. Kind of like he 42' Huntress or 1040 Stern Drive.

Gotta say that

The Mystic Hull is much better handling than MTI. As much as I like going to the MTI factory just 1.5 hours away...the Mystic is superior in speed and handling. MTI has many more hulls out around here at the Lake of the Ozarks...cheaper and easily shipped...they are used more for poker runs and 5 seaters. There are many out on the race circuit but David Scott told me personally (Nauti Marine and Bud Select) that they are so different and that the mti design hooks bad if you do not bring it way down in the corners....if we are talking real boat reality. Oh and the Mystic looks much better and can handle more power.

Hi there.
If you are still open to suggestions, an upsized version of the "Arrow" rigger would be great.
The couple that have been running in our club are little rockets, but struggle in the rougher conditions against the larger riggers.
A 33" - 34" version that could be run on 4s or 6s set ups would be very competitive I think.
They are such a stylish little performer.

Cheers.
Paul.

[riflemanbtx]

Or better yet, when is this to go onto market? I'm ready for this last night!

[SJFE]

I have dibs on one. I'll post a review soon as it's here and I've run it.

[riflemanbtx]

Please do, I've been looking for a unit like this for a while in this size of boat

[riflemanbtx]

Also the capacity to run twin units

[rayzerdesigns]

I'd race that. I'll have to check that against some of the boats on my shelf.

Ray, how does that width compare to the cat we were talking about a month or so ago?

still a little narrower than what is in works..but only testing will tell how its going to run

I would love to see TFL be a Spec motor provider. I made 3rd place in Q-mono and Q-offshore at the MI Nats with a 5684-1200KV SSS motor. it would be awesome if they could do a spec motor with 6 polestoo.

FYI

I raced an SSS 36x60 1950kv motor in P Sport this past weekend. My initial impression is that it is way more motor than the AQ2030 or the PB Dynamite motors. I was able to turn a cupped up X448 without heating anything up. I don't have real data to share. Just my impression. Placed third but I had a DNF. Not sure I would have kept pace with Pete's new sporties but I didn't feel like I was getting blown away by the Neu motors.

TFL does have this plug. Sent it too them last winter. I'm not sure if anything will come of it.
