I should add, the guys are confident that w/that motor they are confident they can break Jon's record without juice!
Would also add, I was friends with Jon Wright and he would be nothing but happy about them resetting his record.
Some may not know, I sold Jon a bunch of OMC pts yrs back for him to re-set his own record w/an OMC. I have to believe Jon is up there smiling down on Montys creativity as thats also what set him apart from the rest.Last edited by Instigator; 12-25-2013 at 10:37 AM.
I'd rather be competitive w/junk I built in my garage than win w/stuff I bought.
I refuse to allow common sense to interfere w/my boat buying decisions.

I hadn't finished the split collars when that picture was taken. It was built "in the middle" and can go up or down .500" from center with .250"stops along the way, depending on where you stack the spacers.
Gordon is very good at describing exactly what he wants. This mid will adjust : up + down, trim and gear case alignment to keep the boat from crab walking on the prop. The rudder will take care of steering.
He told me that a stock Formula 1 weigh's 60 lbs. If I could build one that came in at 40 lbs, it would be worth doing. This one weighed 12 lbs. without the side adjusters. He told me with paint, bars and hardware, we came in at 13 lbs total. The cow bell tuner that my son built ( Gordon's specs ) adds maybe another 2 lbs. So at 15 lbs, I'm happy to say we came in at less than half of what was expected..
My boat .. LOL
I'll get some pics after I get back from my mother in laws ...
