2014 Herb Stewart Challange - Round III

[Matt Minassian]

Pretty close. The point on the tri is more towards the middle but that is a very close representation of what we run. And the point is actually deeper as well but we don't put it too close to the shore, you will have PLENTY of room to run several boats wide on the middle point for tri.

Good overhead of the tri-oval. corner radius a little big but that's a drawing.

Robert, FE class P rules are in the Namba rule book as are the P / limited OPC class. The term "Spec" maybe shouldn't be used other than for local regions. Full P basically is open to motor and ESC. P class is a 4 cell lipo or other chemistry with nominal voltage between 10.1-15v. P/ltd is a single motor from the approved limited list in the rule book. Most often used is the Aquacraft 36X56 2030kv motor. Power about 1 watt where full P motor may be 3-5 watts or more but not practical.

And any speed control for P limited OPC Mic??

 

[HTV Boats]

No speed control limits here in Florida or Namba in general.

After reading over old threads, and remember things my brother, dad, and uncle use to bask over. The one thing this race is missing is the smack talk that came with the Original Tunnel Championships.
The one thing The Brandon Club could do to hype this race up even more, is bring back the smack talk trophy. I can guarantee there is only one trophy my dad is more proud of over the '05 smack talk trophy.
Of course there would be stipulations. Like you may have the wittiest, funniest comebacks, but if you can't back it up on the race course, it goes unearned.
It can also be a way of looking at someones remark as, if I can better this person at their game, I may be able to take that trophy home with me Vs. He undercut me, I'm going take it personal and *** him right back. Make it a game, fun.
Winner would be voted on at the trophy presentation by the racers of course.
Plus, we can finally see if The Aussies can back up all the Down Under talk... or if they're harmless like little Quokka's

Maybe he had a VISION of some SHAMANS working over an ancient ritual of annihilation on little baby dragons and wanted no part of it.Or he may be playing with his trains, I mean either one would be a good guess..

[HTV Boats]

Kris, you will have all you can handle in Q. We are bringing a new driver from the car ranks and just haven't decided who's going to run what yet. "Team Ugly" will be entered in .21 mod & sport, .45 mod & sport. P/ltd, P &Q and 1 Open with at least 2 boats in each of the rest. Not sure what Andy Smith is planning but I am sure he will there too.
