Wow , it's huge! I was looking at the new Zippkit tunnel. It is 44 inches so I am under the inpression that it is a 1/4 scale, right? Thanks alot for the pic posting! Its hard to figure out without seeing it!

RE: Tunnel hull sizeing!
Woodstuff racing also carries the larger gas tunnels. If you can find the plans for JD's 47" WOF Solution, build yourself one. I saw the new Zipp Kit's tunnel at the Toledo hobby show couple weeks back. It is a nice tunnel for the price. One kit came home with me.. Plan on doing a build tread on the kit build in a week or so. Other projects are first..
FYI: I had a 50" Predator X the first year out. Boat wanted to turn in lane 25, on a good pass! There are better boats out there.. My suggestion would be to stay away from the boat. When I called them to order the boat, I asked for instructions for mounting the outboard.. "Why outboard? We run only inboards." [:@]

Is the WOF Solution that good? I have these plans. I could not find any info on it. I was'nt sure if it was a good one or not.(I'm a newbie with boating) I have an 11cc that has never been run, do you think this would be a good combo?
I am going to be watching for your build thread, I would love to see that. What are you going to use to power it?

RE: Tunnel hull sizeing!
I've built two of the 47" solutions. Power used were 11cc and 13cc motors. Boat handled the powerplants with ease. Few suggestions for gas usage are: A: beef up the transom B: Widen the transom. I hope to make one for gas at some point.
As for the ZippKit Illusion tunnel, that will have a modified G260 motor, Lawless CuttThroat lower, Quickdraw Hot Pipe.

Do you have any pics or links to this? I would like to see one completed. I have no time for this project right now but it never hurts to look ahead

Pics can be seen [link=http://home.earthlink.net/~ob_nut/id6.html]here[/link].. The yellow one was never ran, it was sold shortly after the build completed. The red one is still sitting downstairs.
