That is absolutely awesome, I can't believe how you can throw it into the turns. The Talon is exactly what I had in mind. Mind you, I've got no hope of producing what you have there, but I'll post the photos in a few weeks so you can all have a good laugh.

Can you tell me what kind of length and width you are running with that hull?
