I think I ran with you when you came to LOTO a few years ago. I had a formula 357 at the time. I think we ate lunch at Paradise.
You had 572's at the time didnt you? how much power did you have then? what were you running for speed then?

He sold that Hawk 40 to a neighbor of mine here in Derby, KS. That guy has since sold it to someone else and it may still be in the Derby/Wichita area. Not sure. T38 would probably know.

It was repainted, I do know that. Black/orange/etc... funky paint job, if I recall.

Edit: Here's the before shot and the new paint scheme:

Were you with Paul? That was a few years ago. I was around 600HP back then running 74. They are now 700 HP and I have seen 82.

As for the boat with Konrads. They are 1" shorter and should be a little easier to turn. The TRS didnt make it 10 hours with 650HP. I think the boat should be more reliable and quicker.

Here is a pic of both of them last year.

They both look great! Sounds like you should run well with a certain Fountain I know...

Any issues with either boat structurally or are they pretty solid? That's good speed for a boat that size.

Yeah Paul and I go way back...or at least it seems like it! You can usually find us together.

What are you running for drives?
