Do you have a second reciever for the 3PM Kent? We can throw it in the Titan for the weekend if you want. If not, you can just use Mikey's radio.

[HOTWATER]

No second receiver...yet. I am actually running with my old 3PM still. Not enough time to switch things over and dial in today...but am hoping to get a couple of R306FS's soon. I will keep you posted.

[egneg]

Things are really looking up for FE ... great going guys!

[D&D]

My wife and I are planning to attend, but I'm too old and blind to race anymore. Just want to see your FE boats and watch them run.

[Chilli]

Well you cant see and I cant drive. I think we would make a great team. LOL!!!

Looking foward to see you at the race Dennis.

[egneg]

I can't drive either. I speared buoy #6 in the 3rd heat with the P-mono today. I was told the buoy's were supposed to stay on the course.


Now they call me "buoy boy".

[HOTWATER]

Woo-Hoo! Chuck, you drive just like me! LOL!! Actually, today I kept my nose clean and did not anything at the Queenstown pond!! Help me Oprah Winfrey!! I was the only one there today running FE...All the other guys were running gas. They were very cool to hang around with.

I saw chuck spear the buoy it was pretty funny. I will be there I have a pop up tent I can bring and some folding tables. I am trying to have my P spec tunnel and my mono up and going by then I also have a surprise for run what you brung if I can get it done in time.

[Chilli]

We'll, I've seen many fine racers tag buoys this year. I tagged a few in practice but not in a heat this year. Instead I decided to put my Spec Rigger into the bank on our narrow back stretch last race. But she is all patched up and ready to go.

Thanks for the PM's Jason. Good getting to know you. I'm going to start putting my Woodstuff together next week. I'll do a build thread. Please do the same. Looking foward to meeting the gang next month!!!

I havent talked to Dick but James Beasly PM'ed me he would constider breaking out the Spec Tunnel if we run a separate class from B Tunnel. With six weeks to go, FE partricipation for this race is looking very encouraging. Much more than I could of dreamed of. Dick will hopefully start posting entries soon. I'll paste them up here when I see them.

[HOTWATER]

Awesome Jason! Look forward to meeting you!!

NEWSFLASH!!!!!!! Glenn Quarles (Nova Rossi/ TOP dist.) is now going to build a p-spec (UL-1 powered) hydro!!!!!!!!! Whoo Hoo!! It won't be long before everyone has something FE to run! What do ya think Mike?


-Kent

[egneg]

Yes I kinda looked liked Rudolph with a swollen nose! I am glad to hear that we are getting this much interest in FE in such a short amount of time.


Way to go guys ... and thanks to Mike for all the hard work he did to make this happen in D12.

[hazegry]

I am looking forward to meeting everyone too. I just wish I wasnt selling my ETTI demon to get ready but ya got to do what ya got to do. I am debating getting a bby liftmaster to replace it

I think the JAE team and Zippkits have come up with a product that not only the FE community has been waiting for, but something so good that all RC boaters have taken notice. Plus Mr. Smock has done a great job building 80% of the JAE's on the race course. Even Don Ferette (D12 Director/National Gas Director) told me last race he was thinking about running one next year.

I think winning a race is going to be allot harder next year.

[hazegry]

it will just be that much sweeter when we do win is all. I cant wait for august this is going to be a good time.
