You won't see many boats better setup / tuned / balanced / matched up or efficient than this boat.

No doubt that fast and impressive.. however the balance i doubt is perfect .. most boasts with reasonable ballance can achive that on the straight its the high speed cornering that really puts the balancet to the tests those things should be able to turn very quickly in a short space looking at the way his was driving.. i think he knows the boat cant corner at speed

just my thought i could be wrong ...

For a stock tunnel you can't beat Aquacrafts VS-1 it's winning all the races over here right now. For modified the new TopSpeed 3 just hit the shelves.

Yup that's the one, I've got an O.S. .21 XM on it and it's a really fun class to race.
Pretty good deal on the hull over here, tank and all the linkages included.

In the video he has the Aquacraft UL-1 motor in it. The UL-1 hydro is a real blast, I caught a gust of wind last night and cartwheeled at 45mph with no damage, landed right side up and kept going.  :}
