My first season runnin scale hydro!

[Bill Gibson]

Just wanted to share...i raced my 82u55 82 Executone 3 times this year..i wished i could have made more races, but im thankful for the races i made...MAN talk about highs and lows!!the Winternats were a BLAST!I was so nervous! I ended up 4th and that was cool....just wanted to thank Joe Wiebelhaus, Rick Bellinger, Jack St.Clair, and the other scale racers who offered thier advice to help me TRY to get better!Though ive learned alot, Man have i got a LOT more to learn..Joe has been a huge help to me as he has shown me more than once things i should change to make my boat better...im gonna run Picco power in it for next year as the Mac just aint doin it...i want some low end and mid range to make the boat more driveable for my less than stunning driving skills and the Mac just aint gettin it....no lack of power though!I still think i should have gotten a Spectacular Blow Over Award or something as i had two beauts this year! :lol: Scale hydros are awsome as are the people that ive met who race em.....if i EVER get a top 3 in this class im gonna go nuts! Its a lot of fun even when things DONT go right!

Don't you guys have a new scale race coming up Dec 6 in Palm Beach??? B)

 

[Bill Gibson]

Yeh Ray...I think its called the Southeast Hydroplane Championship...its a specialty race...i think they are going to run Sport 21, Sport 40, and Scale Unlimiteds...I dont know if they are running Gas thunderboats or not..bad as i want to go, its just too close to Christmas for me ..time and money wise...Thats life, i guess!

Hey Glenn,at the rate im goin with the Pak, it may be 2 YEARS before that **** boat ever gets wet!! Now i gotta spend time changing crap around in the 82 Exec to make the Picco work in it...one of these days ill get it right the FIRST time...but probably not!

 

[Bill Gibson]

Robert, ive got a Greeny in a box that ill drop in it if i dont like the Picco, but Joes scale boats just seem to run so good with em, i thought id give it a try!

 

[Bill Gibson]

Rob, I tried to, but it said the file was too big to attach....dont know what to do, im about as good with computers as i am driving a scale hydro! :lol:

Reduce the mega-pixels on your camera before taking the photos, to reduce the file size.

How goes it for you Bill

 

[M@MRacing]

Joe does know how to make Piccos work he has been running them every since i knew him in Michigan
