Nice work, guys!

Tyler-72 mph in an N-2 mono? Wow! Sorry you didn't back that up. That's rockin'.

DF 25.5 hulls simply rock. That is, hands down, the best Delta Force hull out there. The geometry just works on that boat.

I think I have video of this somewhere. I'm slowly going through them all and, if I have this one, I'll try to post it tonight.

I didn't catch them all, as it's tough to video and work on boats at the same time, but I did catch a few, mostly on Saturday.

What was even more impressive is the same hull going over 77mph in P-Mono trim... a very "unique" P-Mono setup, but P-Mono none-the-less...

That is a great little boat. I was stuck at 62 MPH for while with the existing power system which Brian still holds the record with. I tried a little different route and it worked. Just too bad the motor leads came unsoldered from the esc and the lakeside repair was not up to snuff to make a return. I have a new another ecs now and the boat is packed up to head out to Flint, MI for the SAW in two weeks.

Brian took his old N2 mono and stuck a P system in there and said "this should go fast" and cranked out a 78 mph pass on the first run. The guy makes it look easy.

I saw (pun?) that pass and was totally floored by how fast and stable that "little critter" went. Nice job !

Oh, and BTW, the 70 mph fast pass recorded for my P OPC , in the spirit of full and truthful disclosure, was a result of a Legg Lake duck (which I have been training for months) tripping the light mid-pass. Actually, after witnessing Brians smokin' P-OPC passes, my tunnel developed a bad case of electro-goofy distress and was relegated to a spot near the food table

Tony, The computer file showed you had a 74 mph pass as well. I thought that one may have been the duck, but oh well.
