Is everyone ready for the event of the year?

It's dawned on me that some of you may have some good powerboat footage yourselves, if so, feel free to bring it along, and we'll run it/copy it, as appropriate

Race Fever

Who made these as kids?

I reckon anyone who fancies a challenge, should build/prepare a cotton reel tank, to present at the video night for scrutineering for a wee 'sprint' over a set distance, say, a yard!

Any takers?

Is there a min/max reel diameter (like the Cube Rule)?

Any checks for band Nitro twang improver?

What about Navigation?

OK, bring on your lightweight, racing cotten reel Tank.

When the flag drops, the bullshit stops!
