I wanted to give everyone an update on what's been going on with PNWTA and the Gas Scale Hydro Class. For the last three years we have been running the class in the Seattle area and have used the NAMBA GX-1 engine class as our engine choice. After much discussion we have decided to modify the...

Kevin- We are using NAMBA GX-1 motor rules in the Northwest, The boats have plenty of power and are running about as fast as the 1/8 scale NITRO boats in heat racing trim.

Phil- Let us know when the cowl is ready.. The stock RZ wont have enough HP to make you happy. I have been running the JG Hemi top ends with aluminum 2 inch band pipe on my RCMK motors. The zero band pipes might get more RPM's but my boats run better with 2inch. Did you weigh the boat yet??

Phil... Put me on the list for a glass kit when you have them ready.. I want to be in line because others will chiming in soon..What motor are you running in the video? Marty

Looks like we might have a few showers over the weekend, but hey this is Seattle!!!! Good news is with the cloud cover we won't have the glare in the south turn so we should be able to see the boats better....
