teken10 that is a killer paint job and color on the hydro, perfect choice for the natural aluminum of the stinger! video number 9 said it's being shown today at a show or was I hearing things?

Hi Emilio, TO BE CLEAR I am NOT the person building that boat. I just made a stand for my stinger. That said, that drag boat is an amazing project.

Hi Lovedr,

Yes, both project use the same running gear. I just have different stingers, props and a rudder. Next to the other guys project (the drag boat), I don't really think I can call mine a project :) That boat is just a work of art. I was actually planing to get rid of all the running gear and just display the engine as is. I feel like the stand turned out to big.
