Default Baja Mission a little dddddelayed

Allen4 =84.5, GLH 85, Shane 89, Cord 82.5, Tim G 73, Fever Mike 78.5, jt29olhp500's 85.5, Ratchet 84.5, Playn 79, Sunsation 32 82.5, dreamboater 79, Lapse of Reason 84, Pantera24-650HP 86.5, Bigwavz 88, R Addiction 82, Jan 82.5, JUST ONCE 80, frequentflyer 79.5, ragtop409 82.2

What's this .5 crap = spliting the difference when someone says 80 to 83 = 81.5

I am going to guess 82-83 on your buddys boat, hope his drives hold up. Jeff broke 5 or 6 Bravos and a couple broke while just cruzn. Jan he does have Imco SC's. This month's Hot Boat as a 36 Eliminator with 1000 hp blower motors and it has Imco SC's with set backs. They took it up to a buck 25 and still had stick travel. They were saying 140 to 150. It's Leach's own personel Poker Run boat.

So where do we stand ? = Parts didn't come in today so they are sending out tracker #s to find out the deal. They may even take the motor to another shop (almost a couple hrs. away) to dyno the motor.

Default Barry, you got that right.

The owner just called. The engine builder is going to take the motor to another dyno this coming Friday. Looks like he will have his boat back before Easter weekend.
Guess who I am visiting that weekend

I can't believe Ambusher doesn't have any input on this thread.

My GPS always reads point something and I expect your going to use a GPS to get the speed numbers not the speedo, so I guessed 86.1

I forgot to ask,
What 's the prize to the winner ???
Is it cash? automobiles? travel?
or thousands of valuable other
prizes?

Or is the winner then going to be
known as the "official speed guestimater
guru of OSO"

........I really could use another title
