Hi Rick. I just purchased one of Andy's 21 quite pipes and will have it on a Nova/Seducer combo. The water is still hard here and I'm going to Houston for a race in March. Would you share what length you are at on your mono as I won't have any run time on it when I get there and probably no...

Hey Grim, whats that Red Max fuel doing that close to your boats??? :o ??? :D

Hi, is this the same place that had the pictures posted and the campgrounds. If yes is their a name of the campgrounds so we can make reservations. Thanks Bill

I have been running an OS for three years now and I am still on the same shaft. I run at least twelve sanctioned races a year with it plus test time so it gets a lot of use. If I could get the piston and liner to last as long as the drive cable it would be a winner. I have also looked at...

Hi, I'm not an expert on models or the real thing but I do have a lot of fun with the models. I have also sat in many different kinds of racing equipment over a long period of time. When you start comparing a real tunnel to a model you have to take into cosideration that the real deal is ultra...

Hey Grim, I remember that boat! I have had a love hate relationship with it for a couple of years now. I had a pretty good set up on it running a X440 with the prop shaft about 3/16ths above the sponson bottom. Few blow offs, super entry and a great turner until you get to the exit bouy...

I sent Doug an e-mail to inquire about his sport 20 after seeing this post. He said that his 20 boat is a little small and he does get some complaints about it. Set up is very critical. However, he is in the process of making a plug for a sport 20 that will be a little larger to cure this...

Hey Charlie, you can count this Minnesota traveler in. Love the Badger pond and to have another oportunity to race there is great. All I need to do now is find a fast boat. : :)

Eric, I have run OS RZ's for the last couple of years and I use the McCoy MC9. One washer is fine. I have found it to be an excellent plug for that engine. Bill

::)Hey Mike, I ran some of them when I was a young dude. Helmet fit a little better though. Never got the K&B to go that fast but the Konig came close. See ya this weekend 8)

Congratulations Tom. She will bring you many hours of happiness and many grey hairs. Just check mine out. Before you know it she will be grown up. Spend time with her and cherish her. Take care of mom to. Bill

Hey Kookieman. Glad you had a good time ;D When you get ready to get that 3.5 let me know and I will help you out. We enjoyed your visit. I believe you have our schedule so stop by anytime. Bill 8)

Hi Tom, I'm an older guy that always wears a Goodyear cap. I run one of Mikes Ninja's. Clear with orange sponsons. White this year. Most of success has been in b mono. Only been doing this a couple of years but am having a blast. I think I know who you are but am not sure. If you are the guy...

Hi Tom. My name is Bill Wachtler. You can find me at a lot of the district 4 races. Usually have my pretty wife and motor home with me. Run B hydro, B mono, and B tunnel. I love the district 4 races just because of the good competition. My attitude is you can't get better unless you run...

I heard the Iowa guys may come also. I'm a district six guy and spend a lot of time racing in district 4 because I like the competition and like to travel. I don't know what classes this guy runs who thinks we are amateurs but I do know we have a bunch of good guys and their will be people...

They start sometime between 9:00 and 10:00. Hope to see you there. I'll be the old guy in the Goodyear hat. 8)

The TCMBC pond is the Twin Cities Model Boat Club pond. It is where our club has it's races and practice. I think I saw somewhere you were from Mankato. To find the pond you would take 169 to Hwy 13 follow 13 to Eagan. You will cross 35W and a while later you will cross Cedar ave. The next...

Hey pond player, tried to answer your e-mail before but it wouldn't go for some reason. You should try coming out to the TCMBC pond on a Saturday afternoon. There is usually someone there and they would probably be glad to help you out. I'll be out of town this coming weekend and in Osgosh for...

Re:K&B 3.5 RJL bought K&B and are going to start producing these engines again. I have delt with RJL in the past when I was running airplanes and they bought everything from HP. The truth was not in them as far as when they would start getting motors but they did indeed start producing them...

I run one of Grim's Ninja's. Very fast and very good handling rigger. The strut is offset to the left looking at rear of boat. If you are building off of plans or finishing off a prebuilt you can't go wrong by going by what the instructions say. Good Luck Bill
