Trottles on the left are great I have trim on the steering wheel & it is very easy to handle.

I relocated mine to the right side for throttles and left for drives and would never put the throttles back on the left. I am also left handed, but I prefer the throttles on the right. I ran them on the left for over two years and just never liked it so when I reworked the dash I took the plunge and moved them. I guess it is different strokes for different folks?

Hello I'm looking to move my shifters to the right and seen your post. Looks great. Where can I find this? This is my first fountain and not sure if I will ever feel comfortable with the throttle sticks on the right. They are too far from me when driving. Thanks Timmy

I found a shifter box on Summit racing web page that looks like it would make a nice install with a Gaffrig two stick control for the throttles. I think I'll try it.

Maybe two sets of throttles on each side of the wheel would be an option too LOL? Nah just try the Fountain set up and you will like it in no time flat. Reggie won more than any with this set up and he is among the best. No he is the very best powerboat racer and builder of all time.
