That is sick!!!!

Heck yes it is.In talking to him today I learned that all the black is carbon fiber inlay.
Nice to see custom work being done during these hard times,and also nice to see some fresh gel design.By that I mean it doesn't resemble someone elses designs,its called creativity:thumbsup

Mr Racer J....saw you made a post over on the brand X website with video of you running at Bakersfield. Looks like a you were having a blast. Wish I could have made it. Bummer they didn't get to run the finals on Sunday.

We made a few of the nostagia funnycar bodies that ran there last weekend.

Even with the weather turning to crap we still had a good time. That's cool that you can build those funny car bodies. If you ever get to Bako let me know, I'll buy you a cold one:drunk

Jimmy we are getting the mold!!. We should have it in Phoenix sometime in June...As you have seen from the other two boats we will build a quality Ride... Jewelry!!That is what i call them!! Rick and i thought the Cheyenne mold would compliment the rest of our molds. This should help give the guy that wants a new boat a choice. Place Craft Ski deck ,Place Craft raised deck ,,Topless 5.7 xt, Rex Craft semi v and now the Cheyenne. We are considering the Hallet bubble deck as well. It seems we have collect a hand full of the fastest tunnels around . we hope to build you guys what you want soon. Thanks again Jimmy for your inquire and i hope to come to saguaro with you guys soon
