Going Insane at RCBOATBUILD

Nice job Tony!

Yes its bad when I'm just 5 mins from his store kinda makes it harder. He did talk me into one though when I get the 20whiplash done that one will be next. Good looking builds

Steven, I'm really excited to see how they work out. Definitely not for everyone, won't appeal to the go-fasters, but for those that like scale looks, and want some fun, these should be the ticket. Personally, I'm looking forward to having a race class that isn't at warp speed. [ There should be three boats at WWVIII and wer'e hoping to run some heats] .The built in handling "challanges" should make for an interesting driving experience {and I mean that in a good way}. I believe there's real potential here for the growth of this category, and the thread on RRR shows some developing interest from that quarter.The quality is excellent, btw, and they should be easy to rig and a nice creative outlet for paint/graphics. Incidently, I just caught your announcement of the center-mount SPD rudders and they look really perfect for this application, although they'd be side-mounted.

I'm in love !! Can't wait to race it. Some tightening up the trim & CG, but that's how they roll !

Hey Tony looks good and not slow either so now I need to git myself one and that will be another friendly race we can have lol. Just gonna have to wait till I get that 295 here and built first :-). Hope you all had great day at Joes would have loved to been there but other things had to be done first.

34" Cheetah built for Cameron

My customer Cameron wanted a good handling Cat with decent sport runtime, so single Leo 4082 2000KV motor should get the job done on 4S
