      give me those hitec servos and I'll let you chase me. Thats if you can handle the speed! hahaha! I'll transfer my mamba and 7000kv from my rc18 to my xray. my quark 33a is doa!

      BTW, I think lenny has a shockvawe. I'm just not sure if it's the 55" or 26"

      Your're Prather looks really cool. I spent the whole afternoon cleaning and tuning my cousin's prather fun cruiser. Now the engine starts at half crank. hehehe! He wants me to run it and test what prop suit her best! oh! he's asking for trouble! Mind as well keep her ey? hahahaha!

        hey mac, thanks for asking, been way too busy... we are also moving so that just adds to the chaos. i think i'm going to wait until we are at the new house before i start the blue printing, however i will order all the parts before that. we will have a nice big yard where i can do my sanding. BUT once i start i won't stop

          Big yard ey! Why don't you build a small workshop while you're at it. It's nice to have a private place where you can work on your toys and a place to hide your rc stuff from the eyes of the wifey too! hehehe!

              Nahh, you wont be interested in that bro - you're more into 'branded' stuff, besides I already installed the HOR stuff I got from you last night to the motor and currently dry fitting to check CG and what not.
              You see that tune pipe? Nice eh!? Too bad as its inside the hull - as most funboats are.

                Hey Mac,I could give it a go with the Logo thing.But it is like the paintjobs and sometimes things just pop into my head and I go with it.It's not always good.Hehe,much like my youth.
                Hey,when was the last time a Geico was discussed anyway... I guess I should run mine this weekend(if I get out).The forecast isn't good.

I stoped last night at the craft store and got some templates, so now i can do something on the sides of the baot but as i closed the car door to leave there my drivers window fell inside the door, looks like im going to have to fix something.. Bad thing about working on cars for a living you never wanna fix your own, there goes any boat money!!!

                    Dont sweat it bud - as an artist, it comes to you and not the other way around.
                    Stephen and I talked about a logo we can do for the upcoming Komodo Cat - and I really dont know if its called line art, vector art, etc. But something like this:

                    Just a bunch of lines and curves but once completed forms an easily recognizable figure or character.

                      I still say count your blessings buddy - there are still more worst things that could happen.

                      You guys got any ideas for boat driver figures? Do I have to buy a bubble bath from the UK in the form of Top Gear's "The Stig" and just use the head? hehehehehe
                      There's a topic in rcuniverse that I was reading yesterday regarding rc boat driver options.

                      Speed - RC Gas Boats - where to buy driver figures for a 57 apache - where is a good place to pick up 3 driver figures? preferably ready to go without the need for paint or assembly and whatnot

                            Everybody loves bobble heads or they should but for real, maybe you could get some of those motor cycle drivers from like the Venom motorcycle and cut them down, seems like alot of extra work thow.. Ever sense i lost the one from ontop of my 32'' vhull, it just dont look the same anymore, Owell..

                              Aside from the paintwork, drivers do beautify and add life/realism to the boats.
                              I have 1/10 scale drivers that might work for you Jerry. Its all I have at the moment, but maybe I should make some in different scales and provide them, eh?
                              The 1/10 are obviously small for my gas fun boat.
