Project Vector/FrankenRude is nearing completition and I start rigging for real this weekend.
Will pull it to the scales to get a bare hull # first.
Any guesses??

That depends on if you have those ugly ass dune buggy seats in it or not......

I'm gonna guess 700# w/o the seats and 795# with............


:eek:

yep around 700 to 750??????

I'm curious about the full weight - motor, rigging, hull - everything but the prop and fuel. Let's see if you can beat me - I'm at 1050 lb! No core, no wood - light at strong too!

Motor, hull, fuel cell, 1 seat, gauges, steering cables but no rack or wheel or battery yet. No wood either. So when ya gettin' the trailer queen out of the garage Greg? Or are ya skeeerd?;)

Looks like my home work may have paid off:D

543lbs !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bare hull and windshield

Oh yeah, with balsa core and lots of wood:eek:

Not bad for a hill billly in his garage.
If the motor is as close to the sub 400lb mark as I think it is, and Franky realy does make 200+ HP's :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

Now I'm geeked!!

BTW, just thought of something about the Rumble annd the manny Streams attending.
Whats the most HST anyone has ever seen in one place??
I know of five confirmed for the Rumble just off the top of my head.
That's pretty awesome!!

Sounds a bit heavy. Hell we put mine on a bathroom scale, 2 of us lifted it off of the trailer, think Rick was there when we did it. I came up with under 400 lb.

Gary I have a box of parts that I'm dropping off in the morning, if you need anything else let me know before I drop them off.

[woodco]

Thats some impressive #'s Can't wait to hear the numbers
once she hits the water...... ;)

[Balzy]

4 HST's in the same water at the same time quite a few times now around here, Antioc, and in MN. Never counted last year at the rumble. Looks like we may have 5 this year at BTTW right now.

Gary ,

I would have guessed that it would be between 615 and 650 .
I know it felt heavier than that when we lifted it . Good job man .
You should get some rigginn done and maybe I'll come down next weekend for some Indian L. testing ??????? I miss that place .
