no breaky props. Use 3x3.3x3 from a venom, custom shaft mount.

Small Block x 2. You wont believe the hit this thing will take.
Actually that was only 2.5 out of 12 minutes. The rest was either all sky or me walking over to recover it behind a hill or in the bush.
I got some Big Blocks to try but they are heavy and problably, just as in FAKETHIS boat, wont gain any useable performance.

"dont look no differnet, still a POS small block"
'heard dat... still kick your ass'
"NNNNNN.... ppppppoleeeeeeese"
'you ready?'
"i got to adjust my timing"
'heard that story last year'
"this aint last year, mouseboy"
'heard dat'
"why dont you run that guy, spray the hell outta him, ill be ready when you get back"
'this aint last year, remember'
"heard dat, ok lets play, lemme call Pops.."

I got mine off the ground last night. It built up speed and I pulled the yoke back, and there was air between the plane and the ground. It went into an immediate stall. :D Some quick adjustments...cut the throttle, and push the stick forward and more throttle.. I've never seen anything come to the ground faster. :hammer2: There is still plenty of snow, so there wasn't any damage. These things really glide across the snow, especially with a thin layer of re-freeze on top.

i tried mine in the snow and ice and it really moves. but it doesnt stay in air very long, i need more practice. FMS is a free flight simulator. it helps.

Do yourself a favor and put a small block in Mighty Whitey so's you can run with the MEN on the Pax. Spend more than $2500 on the motor CARB TO PAN and maybe it will beat the yellow boat, but i dont think so. Yellow boat got things not many ever seen in it.
you think the black boat is gonna be faster than the white boat? I would like to know what that bubble gonna do. Looks like a whole new way of thinking. Get a helmet and some ballistic shorts.
and you DO have a chance. I aint spent no more money yet. Have not found a good combination that i will afford that can get much more horsepower and hold up to what i regularly put on it. i would like to be able to run a little more nitrous on a regular basis
Dont really have to, runs good way it is, as long as i cheat.

thats easy, "meet you at solomons"
where you gonna get gas to run that blower on them 9x to 1 pistons. You might look into EGR....it works, but controlling it (as it has been on cars forever) might be a challenge.
and yes, i been a calculating. What i calculate is that it takes money.
I ask Pops if he had any and he said no.
My mother in law said "get a job you worthless POS"
and it caused my mom to blaspheme.
Hope is not lost. When you got a small block in a jet you GOT to have hope, if nothing else.

yea going from 87 to 93 is gonna hurt a little....but when you run outta the juice at anna i will let you borrow some boost,if you find a way to bottle it...i wolnt even charge you for it..cuz i get it free
