Custom/Hybrid Thanks tom21, it fricking rails

[godocgo]

thank you again tom for all the hard work and install.
he built one hell of a hood, i will let him post pics.

istantly able to rail it almost as well as my spec blaster, give me a month and i will rail it as well. maybe they will let me race it in spec class.

everyone that rode it today loved it. even a die hard hydrospace rider. heck my 10 yo can rail it

thank you so much for the great work and even great paint :headbang:

well what is it?

 

[godocgo]

nothing that has not been done before, but this is his design and build with my .2 for the upper cowl. i think it makes it look more factory. he'll post pics tomorrow i am sure but he is driving the 4.5 hrs. home after a complete build, on the fly fab work and a full 5 hours of riding all our toys, the only one he did not get to ride is my 8ml stroker blaster. it is under moth balls at the moment.

It must be a B1 hood?

 

[WFO Speedracer]

Judging by the avatar I would say its an X2 hood and tubbies and maybe even a front fill kit.

Hell yea! I remember reading about him having something in the works. Will it be in Nashville? I wanna see this bad boy rippin! :Banane09:

 

[godocgo]

probably not, i sold my enclosed and i can only carry ski's at a time now.

 

[kawasakit2me]

Oooh! Can't wait to see pics!

I wish we knew Tom21 was in town. We would've come by to meet him.

Lee, I think you rode Charlie's ski when it had my conversion hood on it. How did it compare? He has no tubbies, so it was probably way different.

 

[godocgo]

well riding charlies is the reason i decided to do it. i could actually ride it, so i bit the bullet and i love it.

Awesome. I would love to see you get to ride the thing in a race! Mine is too much fun around buoys.

 

[tom21]

made it home by 12 even after making 3 wrong turns to get out of boca! had a blast yesterday! sorry for the delay getting started and the glass everywhere including the little guy.

I didn't think I was a buoy guy- but I will be spending some time with the local chasers from now on.

here's the link-in case you missed the front page.

glad you got home, the little guy hung on until 9:15. he got in bed after a shower and started itching his legs

the only thing it needs is hydraulic hood lift. i will put one on if you come up with a proper way to mount it.

 

[tom21]

on Reeds I riveted the blaster holder under the hood seal just like on a blaster and mounted the prop on the flat part of the liner. with one it works fine, two hydraulics would be better.

 

[godocgo]

i just need the mounts, i can get the lifters : )

kinda wish it was friday so i could ride tomorrow.

want to come back down and fix my hull before the weekend, just kidding, no really

 

[butti]

i got the mounts from west marine.nxt time im gonna spring for a ss lift

 

[godocgo]

thanks butti that is nice it would work on a blaster too
