    Mine is bigger then yours...

    When I saw this I just had to post something about it....
    is that a Rigger or what?!
    This is what the Japanese were using last year, if they think like us,
    they are probably riding inside the hulls while driving.
    Look at the kinda water he'll be taming...

        It looks like someone got a hold of my sponsom design.

        Look at that edge on the inside. Wow, look at that water! I've heard of scuffing the underside of the hull to create "air bubbles," but I"m not sure about that much air!!!!

          Is that a rudder? I understand it doesn't add much drag, but it may not have much direction either!

                        Looks like they do some kind of "pursuit" race or something... chasing behind the boats in real boats with the driver onboard...

                          WTF!!!!!!

                          Still no turn fins.....what size course?

                          I wonder how many full size boats get skewered by the models?

                            I was watching the SAW clips and they have some pretty
                            fast boats!
                            They have an A-hydro that is going 180km/h (111.8mph)! That's faster then Mark Grim!!!
                            Maybe the rules are a bit different.
