    Looking back at the first pics, I want to say "Merry Christmas!"

        I agree. It just needed a better choice of colors. The front looks AWESOME!

          I know, you can't appreciate unless it's in person. Here's an idea...

          Look at the ghost flames:

            That is a SUPER job and took talent that I'll never have. I'm just not a fan of the red or the "hair"

              You can't even see the numbers or the grounding squares on the circuit board until you catch the light right. The only way it shows up in the pictures is with the flash.

                Yeah, as I understand it's a new trend for some race cars. In fact, he's doing an entire race car next and I think he tried this style as a proof of concept. It may look better further apart. Another way to look at it is as water droplets. Look at the blue and it sorta looks like water.

                  I think that this winter I may have him do one of the boats all circuit board and no flake.

                  Besides, Stan and Steve never looked better. They can ride in style!

                      No Viper, I'm thinking X-Crab, but that's TBD. The one that really needs it is the Green Renegade.

                      On another note, the Ammo is now installed in the CF Micro Hydro. The waterjacket from DRCW was very, very tight and took nearly 40-50 lbs of pressure, even with lubrication. No damage was done to the O rings and it is successfully on. Only thing is, it may never come off, LMAO! Here's a picture:

                      08-11-09_0755.jpg

                      These little watercooled jackets are great and allow for a good volume of water, more than you might think.

                      Now all I need is a male Deans connector to put on the ESC, program, and I'm ready to try this thing!

                        Egneg, are you available for any S/B of props? I have a small one that needs some attention (raw Tenshock, swept back style, Stainless 32mm X 36mm). I'm also interested in a slightly thinned x642 S/B with a little cupping for cone. Let me know if you have any time and how much.

                        I still need some help with choosing a prop for the Blizzard. I believe I have all of the other issues resolved, but still need some guidance in the prop department.

                        I know I haven't made it out to the pond as of late. Things are starting to calm down after the job change so I will definitely be there and since I finally received a few parts, I'll have boats to run again.

                            I should have some time in 2 or 3 weeks. I have a batch to do for a customer in Australia, an order on the way from Canada, a couple for Jesse, and working out the details for several from Florida. I will get in touch and we will talk.

                              Sounds good, just let me know how much. Thanks Egneg!

                              Any ideas on the Blizzard's prop?

                                Don't you have a batch from VA Beach on the list somewhere?
