          I used Eddie Hansen heads and built the rest from a Losi plastic bumper, plastic hangers, epoxy brush handles and pony tail rubber bands and balsa

                      That's nice, Gary. I think that Mark Beatty has one of those as well. Don't think he races it any longer.

                      I have a 1/10th in the livery (well, it's under "restoration" at the moment, but...) of what the Vans PX USED to be... Unless I got my history a bit off....

                        Vans

                        I purchased Marks Vans and it won the Winter Warm Ups in Scottsdale in 2010. Two weeks later it was stolen out of my truck while loading for a race. I went inside to take a leak. Here was his boat.

                          Nice one. I have two or three 1/10 in the works. Just not enough in the district.

                            Randy what I like about the tenths, other than their looks, is they are bigger and they turn left. When looking from the drivers stand you can see the boat in both turns. Also you must drive them into the turns not just hold the triigger down.LOL

                              Some day we will have three in the district But not yet. That is a nice one in my book, I have plans for three boats but we need one of either for me to spend the time building one. Still a good looking boat that is a good thing.
