Funnily enough I watched the vid of your cats test run & destruction for the 1st time yesterday on the way back from Dublin.
If you listen hard, beyond all the cackeling, screaming & farting.....you can hear the sound of your model engine

I was thinking of building an r/c boat, perhaps a replica of a famous raceboat, would probably be fom fibreglass, preferably a cat to fit some monster motors in.
Would do it if there was anyone to race??
