Is this factually incorrect?

The Cig has 1075s turned up

1075's are going to push a 46 foot boat over 170 mph :rolleyes:

They better have a Turn it up button, and a Really Turn it Up Button!

You dont dial a boat in with firebreathers.You dial a boat with moderate HP like a 1075 and then put the 1800s in for the run.

That makes sense. But what doesn't make sense is why they aren't making the run with 1800 hp JC PERF firebreathers :evilb:

Yea but anybody can make 1800 in a blown alcohol application. Just do all your testing on the turned up 1075 and make it run 160 stable they put the drag motors in for a recorrd breaker :D

I think I may know what JC is refering to but not sure. Heard a few rumors circulating at the end of last season.

I hear that MERCURY does have 1800s in the Cig/Skater and is ready to make history. :cool:
