RE: best boat
Has anyone actually answered the original post!?
Well, IMO, with a father who does PR for megatech, Traxxas and Cen I couldn't tell you the "best" boat. I am a diehard supporter of Graupner boats, however the Villian EX is an innovation of its own. Its all a matter of opinion, what kinda $ you plan to spend and how much time you feel like investing in it.
As far as rccarman "flop" goes, maybe you should try "Hooked On Phonics" It will make your life alot easier, plus enable us to understand your babble.

RE: best boat
I forgot all about this thread or I would have provided an update. Rccarman was exposed on the "Mini & Micro RC Cars".

Well,
Here the story on rccarman, it really should be “rccarboyâ€
After a little on-line detective work (all legal) I got his name, address and phone #
After a quick phone call I found out he’s a 14 year old kid (Sounded younger, but not 25 by a long shot) from Royal Oak, MI
And he is using his dad’s eBay account to sell the mini-t. He did tell me first hand he has all that in the ebay auction, and he did send me a handful of photos he had in his computer. I still requested a current photo with the words "losi rocks" on a piece of paper. and he did send it.
Hopefully his Mon and Dad know what’s going on
His Mom seam concerned why a Guy from CA was calling her kid, but she really didn’t grill me either before she quickly handed over the phone to her son, I could have been some online perv or something. Any adult that I don’t know calls my kid I’d be grilling the heck out of them. This just shows what happens when you let you kids surf without a leash.
If his intention is to rip anyone off he’s not going about it very cleverly
He’s has his real name registered on this on this board and is using his dads account on ebay, so I doubt he’s out to rip anyone off
I think he just started exaggerating and got in over his head, anyone with kids has experience with that.
If anyone does get burned by this kid, let me know. I have all his info it was real easy to find.
I wouldn’t buy a Popsicle off the kid, just because he’s lost any common respect, and it’s technically illegal to buy online from a minor anyway.
Rccarman,
Sorry to out you and all, but at least you did sent the pics
so maybe you can make a new start.
just be honest, that will gain you all the respect you need.

RE: best boat
depends on whether or not you want to use nitro or electric, personally i had a mbp 17" hull with one single 550 can motor w/waterproof esc>>it sucked balls, then i got a nitro vee and that thing will tear my mbp apart, i started electric and wont go back. its all about nitro on the water,if you wany\t ill sell my mbp very cheap(dont get me wrong the mbp is fast but not as fast as my traxxas nitro vee
