Maiden the Cap Sunday and everything went great, kinda. The 12oz tank lasted about 6 to 7 min with the saito 100, had to dead stick before getting it trimed all the way. Set your throws on the low rates to start with. I have a velocity stack and 16oz tank on order. Also will start leaning it out this week.
