I only heard what they were doing with the 50 and have no first hand experience with it.

Have not pushed it and doubt I will. I did run it 120 on LOTO a couple weeks ago. I had Cigarette under prop it as I am not interested in top end. While sea trialing the AMG boat last year, it does go in the mid 130's. The 1350 package is so awfully impressive for sure.

By the way, heard the 50 with staggared 1350's runs a tad faster than the 1075 tripple 50's.

Philly's 50 is a beautiful boat and his touches can be seen throughout. It's from another boat of his that I got the ghosted logo.
Havasu just became part of my list for every year events. People were great, location was great, venue was great, city was great....can't say enough about it. We made the run up to Pirates Cove after the poker run and that blew me away. A definite must do every year from this point on.

I did notice the ghost logos on yours....Paint looks awesome....And yea, I took the above pic while you guys were having lunch. The run up river from Havasu is something I think everyone should experience. It's like a different world. Glad to hear you had such a great time and will be back. I've said it for years now but it is one of, if not THEE best over-all performance boating events in the world.
See you next year.

Here's a video I shot off the back of Ron's boat at LOTO.
By the time I turned around we were well over 100!
