I'll check with my social secretary to see when I have an opening

[Ub Hauled]

Have your people talk to my people...

[Xzessperated]

Very nice Jan. You people sure have it good having access to Lake Legg or is is Legg Lake. Great camera and camera man.
Tony's DF33 is of great interest too as I am building one myself.
Looks like you guys had a great day.

[Ub Hauled]

Thanks Paddy...
it in deed was a great day, the "Legg Lake Moster" did not claim any boats today.

Tony's DF33 is awesome to see, soooo fricking fast and handles GREAT... considering I am not a Mono man myself, that means a lot.
I owe you an email BTW

That's it!!! I'm laying up a new one for myself sunday morning. I haven't had one running in a couple years. Time to remind my club mates what tat boat is capable of.

Boat looks good. Do you have an airdam under the front end?

[Ub Hauled]

No air dam yet Brian... so far she's sticking the straights,
2 lap setup, maybe I can get her ready.

Great video. I was lucky enough to snag one of those hulls myself. BJ motor and esc, wire drive and a ball bearing strut. Couldn't be happier. Any pics of the how you set the inside up?

Your Camera man rocked! I tried to take a few videos myself. Ended up with 3 minutes of rooster tails and 20 seconds of the boats on the screen.

Do it!! I was the one talking to you a few weeks ago about the ride pads I assumed came with the boat. That hull really does great with spec power. For what ever reason (I don't know crap about what makes hulls work) it didn't seem to mind rough water at all. Oh ya, post pics please.

If I'm not mistaken,[ Brian correct me if I'm wrong about the hull] a Dark Horse Shovel holds the NAMBA LSO SAW record set in 2006 by Dick Crowe : 56.25 mph with a brushed SS1 on 12 NIMH's !! Dick offered to sell me the boat after the race; wish I'd done it

[raptor347]

Dick's LSH record was set with a scratch built wood pickle fork.

The DH does hold:
Namba-SAW records.
N2 sport hydro-67.81 mph (NiMH)
O sport hydro-64.86 mph (NiMH)

IMPBA-SAW records.
N2 sport hydro-77.506 mph (LiPo)
O2 sport hydro- 67.044 mph (NiMH)
P sport hydro- 80.964 mph (NiMH)

I think it still hold 3 5/8 mile heat records as well.

What are the specs on the DH? Can the hulls be bought?

Whoops, I meant LSH , not LSO [ I took the LSO record that year] Dick's boat was a shovel, white, red & blue. Record still stands in LSH.

[Ub Hauled]

I thought Dick Crowe broke the record with that Miss Mariner Too...

[properchopper]

Yup; a Shovelnose - Thought it was a DH, but that was three years ago and with my mem....Hey what was I talking about ?
