Need an on-line hobby store - help.

James,

No need for the pic - I've seen 1 before.

I'd like to take you up on your offer regarding the pipe - if you can get me a price including the shipping via Airmail, I'll paypal you the money right away!

Thanks again,

Tim.

Hey Tim, I think I confused you on my last post, I was asking you if you had a pic of one for me, so I could make sure its what youre looking for. Is it like I described? I dont know if they made different verions of the pipe, just wanted to make sure you get what you want. ~ James

P.S. ~ YGM

Hmmm Muck pipes??? no one here has tried them, have they??? oh wait... just a sec... I have two of them!!! not in the size you want though... have the 90 pipe and a slightly larger one...

..and guess who is going to the US July 3 for the IMPBA Nats??? And who could probably bring it back for you???

Hi Craig,

I know people here have tried them in 1/8 Scale - it is the pipe that was reccomended to me for my 67 motor. Thanks for the offer man but I need it for the Hydro shootout which is on while you are in The States!! Good luck over there by the way - Kick some butt!

James,

Sorry I don't have a pic of the pipe but it sounds like what you described - the welds on them look different to a MAC's pipe.

Tim.

I think you will find the Muck 11cc pipe is available in Australia. I purchased one from Hobby Supplies in Melbourne early last month and I think the guy said they normally keep them in stock.

Craig,

I saw that Muck pipe on your A-90 in the Seadunker at the Nats at Hunter Valley in 2000. That thing is the biggest nitro pipe I have seen! Didn't run so good either from memory, but that may have been other things. ???

Good luck for the IMPBA nats. 8) Are you planning to take the twin? You haven't got much time to get it sorted... Or everything else!

Nitrocrazed racing: Wish I was going...

 

[EatMyShortsRacing]

Tim,

Thanks.. will need some luck..

Ian, that pipe was the bigger pipe! I have a smaller 90 pipe as well which I havent tried.

Twin may not make it. The engine mounting has been a nightmare. I am going to have to show Magilla how engines are supposed to line up with shafts!!!! The existing mounts made the engines too flat!! Must have been sucking power out of that boat!!!

Anyways back to work...

EMS Racing I never finish anythi

 

[Ian Inverarity]

Craig,

That's what flex shafts and rubber mounts are for isn't it? To accomodate misalignment!

Which boats from Chenco's Navy have you entered? 8)

Nitrocrazed racing: I remmember solid shaft boats...

Hi Tim.

Talk to me nice and I'll bring one out on Sunday for you to try.

Ring me if you want it.

Bill Annabel

 

[TimD]

Thanks for the offer Bill. I'd hate to risk losing it to the pond monster though - that seems to happen to me when I borrow stuff. I have a different pipe to try on the weekend - trying to get it right for the shootout ;D

 

[Wild Bill]

Well, I tell you what - I will bring it with me and if you find you would like to try it, all you have to do is ask.

See ya there bright and early.

By the way, I have a 45 one as well.

Bill Annabel.

 

[EatMyShortsRacing]

Ian,

in our language, A and X Mono and Hydro and Twin Engine class. 45 Hydro is staying home as Mr Garage has my A45 and the Hummingbird... well I have to start working on it one day... so I may have left the run a little late on that one...

Freight may stop the twin going over... then again I havent run it yet... hoping to get a run this weekend..

EMS racing and freight

 

[Ian Inverarity]

Craig,

Are you taking the Filbert 90 over as well as the twin, or did you plan to run the twin in both X and twin class?

How is Mr Garage going, I havent seen him since the nats! Is he going to run the 45 and get it going?

Good luck with the twin. I sent you an email about the motors. 8) Maybe you will have to take it on as hand luggage!

Nitrocrazed racing: Taking on the twins with only half the power.

 

[TimD]

Mr Garage rang me not long ago! He wants to race at the shootout!

 

[EatMyShortsRacing]

Ian,

Yeah the Filbert 90 boat with the engine out of the Seaducer. X hydro and X mono are not run on the same days so I dont have to play around with the 1.0 currently in the hydro.

Mr Garage may run the A45 in his SG. Hopefully the new induction will arrive before I leave so I can send it up to him to try.

EMS Racing Why arent my motors in my boats????

 

[Ian Inverarity]

Craig,

Good idea! Take one of the Bolly pipes from the twin and give it a try as well!

Was that his SG? I thought it was yours!!

Nitrocrazed racing: Which motors are in my boats now??

 

[EatMyShortsRacing]

Ian,

I certainly will try the bolly pipe on the mono, but probably after I get back from the US.

Mr Garage has an SG he built ages ago. I think it hit the water with a Picco 45 but now has my A45 in it. Methinks giving the engine to someone else to do the development when one has not the time for it may be a bonus, although I have my ideas about the engine. As I said, the new induction is supposed to bring it close to the MAC and outperform the CMB.

Only time will tell... hehehehe

EMS Racing many hands make my work light

 

[Ian Inverarity]

Hmmmm. 8)

Nitrocrazed racing: We DO development work! 8)

 

[EatMyShortsRacing]

Maybe I should send you an A45... HAve a 45 'ducer waiting for a power plant...

Oh dont tell me, you want the boat as well???

Would I ever get to drive it???

EMS Racing Maybe I should hire a driver... then I wouldnt even need to turn up to the races!!!

 

[Ian Inverarity]

Well, I wouldn't say no to that offer... 8)

I can just imagine the smile on Gruber's face when he see ME running a Seaducer, only to be followed by a sad look when he realises the motor isn't a CMB! LOL ;D

To be returned when I am happy with it. I'm so hard to please....

Nitrocrazed racing: Open to sponsorship! ;D
