    Talking

    Ok everyone got it tuned just about right no bouncing just a little chinewalk no big deal. Had a good friend come in from out of state to get some great pictures of it runing. I’ve put some new vids on youtube http://www.youtube.com/user/trollfromthebyu all comments welcome. Top speed 55mph to 58mph but a blast to drive.

    Far from the 1st vid, it looks great dialed in.. Not that the white knuckled, teeth grit n, jumpin all over vid wasnt cool too .

    ok everybody got the boat about how i want it, had power trim but the combined weight of trim and battery killed me, now i have adjustible trim via a home made turn buckle. Top speed still is not over 60 so time to start working on the engine. www.youtube.com/trollfromthebyu

    Thanks to everyone for there encourgement.

    Thanks to D. L. from Buna Texas and also my family for putting up with my BS over the past year.
