congrats Hugh, glad to hear your boats ran well. I wish I could have made it, but my new job has kept me pretty busy. I still have 4 hulls waiting to be built.

What was up with only running 7 LAPS??
I thought it was a 1/8 course. =8 laps for 1 mile.

Hey Ray. Are you coming to Ackerman this Sunday? I'm thinking between you and Scott I should be able to get rid of all the boat molds Rich gave me.

Chris, did you get your water pickup fixed in the Pursuit yet? Or have you been as lazy as I have been since getting back.
I still haven't even looked to see if I have a spare .187 cable to put back into my Sprintcat yet.

I'm planning on being there.

Bill,

I should have your flex cable I ordered from Kintec tomorrow, If you PM me your address I will send first class mail so you have by Saturday.

I had already pm'd you Hugh but just went prowling and found a new .187 flex in my parts box after getting home. If you want, you can just wait and give it to me Sunday. I'm thinking real serious about pulling the 1717 and putting a 1527 in it's place while I'm at it. (already have a 1y on the shelf) Mine only made 1:50 on the WB course before hitting lvc with the amp hog 1717. That tight slalom was really putting a load on it. I would have been much better off with the SC than with the MM twin if it could have survived a 3 minute run.

What did Rich dig out Bill? Anything worth replicating? I made that side wider on the mount and sent it off to dave last night incase you hadnt heard.

Lookin forward to seein you Sunday Hugh, its been a while.

Combine lazy with not feeling well and you get not yet fixed.

.

There's a couple of "complete" (I think) molds. A small tunnel and a mono. A large deck for a mono, another mono deck & hull but don't think they match. If nothing else they should serve as something to try pulling a hull from for somebody that wants to have a go at it.
I went over to Daves earlier today myself and watched him cut a basswood test of the program. I took the Cheetah along and it fit the 1st time so should have the aluminum versions in a few days.
