I was seeing if anybody had any info. I just bought a 1999 Formula fast tech. It was a race boat. It was bought a couple of years ago from Calafornia . I bought the boat from a guy in New Jersey . Does anybodyknow how the weight. And how fast do you'll think it will run with about 650 hp with bravos

Some info for you on the 2001 Poker Run Edition 382. I know this boat and have been on it several times as the race physician at Metro Beach and St. Clair MI.

This is very different from the 382 "Poker Run Special", the very first was released in 1999 which I currently own. The Special is fully loaded with every option available and one-off graphics/decals. The 1999 Special was originally rigged with Lingenfelter prepped 585 hp engines. Standard weight of a fully equipped 382 is stated at 10,450 lbs in the Formula literature.

The Poker Run Edition is much lighter than a production 382. I've been tied rail to rail with the 2001 Poker Run boat ... it sits about 3" higher in the water than mine. Notice also the Poker Run Edition fuel capacity is only 125 gallons, while the standard 382 is 195 gallons.
I'm turning 85-86 mph with 650 hp and 650 ft/lb on non-labbed Bravo 28's with Stellings extension boxes. I think you will be solidly in the low 90's with similar power in the boat you have if it is set up properly.
