Is that a 1/10th, Jim??

[JimClark]

30 inches long 1/12th scale It is a great LSH/Spec hull

Whats it gonna be Jim?

[JimClark]

Nope Ron not going to race one wrong size for me. I would rather get back into 10th scale as that is where my interest is but the money just isn't in the budget.

Jim how ridged is that hull? I ask cause I can see through it. It's a shame modern 10 scale hulls are not available like this .

[JimClark]

Don't know but maybe Phil Thomas will pop in on this thread and he can tell you. They are but only from Craig Bradshaw but there is a big waiting list from him. Also Brian B has a couple of hulls he can make.

[SJFE]

Thanks Jim. I'll look into them.

[JimClark]

I bet Phil would do a special stronger layup for you also

[jhl1963]

Phil makes fantastic hulls, very light and strong - I have his 38" RN and its great. He will do carbon reinforcement if you want as well. A gentlemen too.

Hi all, Doug from classichydros
I am the guy who will be selling the scale fe version of Phil's hull, which is the same hull as the Missk+/miss Timex kit. Phil sells several different gas and fe hulls and they are all light, strong and just about bulletproof. The reason you can kinda see through them is that they are made from epoxy layup and not gel coated (which essentially just puts an opaque layer on the outside) like most polyester lay ups. Phil uses epoxy because of its superior strength vs polyester. Hope that helps.
