menace:
oddly enough I just got back into RC cars--here's the old standby: the tamiya 4wd vanquish--solid little car that goes like snot :D I put the slicks on so I wouldn't burn up good tires bashing around the road out front. Nice thing about these is that i can leave a nice skid mark and not really car if i wear right through them.

batteries will last all day if they're fresh at the start. just make sure you have the recommended type as winches i believe can draw more current than normal servos
rchadd:
this jet boat project is pretty impressive - i would love to do a similar project - i bet it was expensive to mill those cnc parts
