(staggered 800's Konrad Ace drives) I'm sure the 100 mph mark is no problem with the right set of props and more experience behind the wheel. The Velocity had no bad manners at all. No chine walk, no porpoising, just a sweet ride. Nice design, very impressed. Kurt |

Yes, we ran but started a bit late. The Velocity crew did a real nice job putting it together. As I said above, no bad manners at all. Glad you liked it, they've been fantastic to work with. Kurt |
