Capsule Now Complete!

Returning to home base, "The Real Thing" team have been busy preparing the new capsule boat for competition.

" It's disappointing we will miss Taree, we went so well there last year, and met a number of new friends there" said Bruce today

"We need to test the boat extensively and with a number of new components both on the boat and engine wise.We believe will are very close on set up, but we will still put the boat thru a simulated race day, in practice. We have also incorporated a Motec engine data log system, which will give us lots of data to digest".

The Real Thing team will be very busy over the coming months will major race meetings in Adelaide, Mildura and culminating the world Championships in  Gol Gol in October.

See the team in action in the very near future.
