Fantastic work Scott. I wish you were closer to me and my buddies here in south Florida. Running Gas mostly because of the cost of Nitro. Terry&ThePirates South Florida

Well I've been hearing that Florida is nice this time of year ...

Dang, you got yourself a runner there! It was certainly worth the effort to rebuild it. That's some great driving, your nerves must be jangling racing like that. I'm sure it's harder than it looks. This was a fun watch too, btw...

Thanks for the input! I wasn't sure if people would want to see that sort of "first person" video or not

Good awesome boat sir good job.

Excellent video Scott. Informative, practical, educational, and entertaining! Sure you didn’t have to mix it with the jumper, but you were cut off illegally (in my opinion) by the looks of things. Anyway, great job and lots of point! Fast machine!!! 💪🏼😘😎

Scott, really enjoyed this style of video! Keep them coming. That boat is fast! It accelerates quickly on the start which seems to give you a little advantage on the start. Blessings to you!

Trust me, it was exciting to film it!

Maybe staying in your lane is just something for the big boats but is it really a race if there's no controversy? Haha that was great stuff, thanks so much for taking the time to share all of this.

Oh come on now, we've had a guy driving up from Utah to race with us! You can do it!

Damn! That is a well balanced boat! That jump out and flat landing was amazing. Tell me about the weights on one side. Is this to counter balance the Turn Fin side?

@M5PerfHydros

2 ай бұрын

I added the weight late in the season last year to balance the boat better in rough water. It makes the nose pound a bit in mid-range speeds which makes it a little tricky to drive, but it's helpful to keep the boat flying level at full speed. I have some sponson design changes that I used on my last Eliminator build series that I believe will minimize those issues whenever I get around to building Stroh 2.0

I never took the drive shaft out of the ’71 Pak the entire time I ran it in ’07 and ‘08. I just stuffed some grease in the back hole and hoped it was good enough.

Yup, no way to quickly remove them. I just tuck them around the motor and they stay out of the way just fine

Why do you guys run clockwise. My local club runs counterclockwise like the full size boats.

@M5PerfHydros

2 ай бұрын

Engine rotation. Nitro and gas engines rotate the prop counter clockwise which creates a lifting force to the left sponson. If we made hard left turns all the boats would simply flop over. The electrics can go either way, but we run ours the same direction as the fuel boats to keep things consistent

Where can I get A motor like this

You can't ... Nova Rossi discontinued their marine engines a few years ago. CMB is a similar engine that is still available here www.hobbysupplies.com.au/CMB%20Engines.HTM
