Oh man!! How cool. Those bring back all kinds of memories, twenty years or so ago I had friends who were trappers and I would go with them once in awhile up and down the river in the air boat, it was bloody cold. Then somewhere around seven years ago the woman I was with and I would go to a local park every other weekend to watch RC boat races, Good times both.
Do they make RC hovercraft?

dude those are cool....have a friend that used to race rc boats all over the country about 10 years ago....he set all kind of speed records with the engines and boats he built...he also used to build aluminum 454 blown alcohol engines for another friends drag boat....he has always made all kind of boats go FAST.
i think he was 1 of the first folks 2 add a 2nd plug in the head...and make it work like it needed to....if you ever want to start tinkering with 1 of the engines let me know....ill make him help ya out for nothing ;D...he has a machine shop in his basement....kev.

You know what's so "funny" about this?.........................is that he doesn't even have a place to run them! I told him I'd rather see him spend money on the Harley. I swear, I'm going to change the password to ebay!

Wow - those look fun! I used to be into the airplanes big time (untill I rediscovered the rock thing!?!). I still have a bunch of my radios and engines - might have to get them all out and go through them again. Hmmm.... wonder if I have enough time for both hobbies???

I have Anderson Park, the spill way next to Mahone school, Lake Michigan, and a few other places to run them. What do you think I do when I drive that huge rock tumbler? Just look at the road?
