this is gonna be awesome. offshore drag racing. i remember the offshore race in texas? about 10 years back, where it was too rough, so they raced inland. two skaters (alcone and the mercury boat-can't remember that guys name) were almost trading paint.
we know the 4 engine skaters don't do the highest absolute speeds, but what about acceleration?
i'm gonna go skater on this one. the 4 skeg drag ain't gonna make a difference in a drag race. the additional weight is of engines only (for the most part).
but i guess we'll see.
how about two 28 skaters goin' head to head.

A 4 engine hook up is like having two more oars in the water. If there are going to be 3 passes you can bet there will be some prop changes in between.
