Thanks Jerry, I am still uncertain to the string or foam method. I have some bubble wrap as well as the idea if blowing up some small balloons under the lid. I see the concern in the rope and believe you me that already came to mind. I figured I would try some runs with some line on a spool first to see its reaction than go for there/

Rawfuls, I am down for some trials tomorrow. I am trying to get a boat on the water tomorrow as well. I will bring the video camera, I should be able to get some of the trials on tape. I am planning on completing the all out actual race either next week or the week after.

I finished the diffs, 100k weight in all three. The Paddles are all go. All that is left is to mock up a hull for the front. I think I am going to see what the trials look like before I decide on how serious I need to take the floatation or string ideas.

I plan on taping the sides of the body to the mudguards for a slightly better seal.

I also moved all of the shocks to there highest setting, and took out some of the preload in the rear to have the front sit upwards.

Tomorrow will tell if I

Or
