Puder, your too young to remember. Tickets were sold A-E rather than by the book.

The E ticket rides were the most expensive and best. Now days, that would be an 8 ticket ride.

OUr motor builder is Steve Schmidt out of Indy. www.steveschmidtracing.com. yes I remember

632 ci pro stock motors 1025 ponies a piece in december hot boat. bad azzzzzz:D

Curtis:

Too many brain cells dead from your Miller Lite to remember alot? I remember you shaking your head in Ft Myers 1999 , that was when I knew everything and before I was ejected 3 times! BH

GOOD:
Thats VERY impressive. It's a realyy pretty boat and Paint Job ( Kinda Drambuieish). Whatta ton of horse power! Cool rigging on the exhaust.
BAD:TOO many people in the boat, (HTM). I would NEVER get in a bravo boat at those speeds. There is such thing as too much with too little. I learned the hardway.
Good Luck with this project and PLEASE BE SAFE.

Great run man! Be safe.

Best Regards

ron, tickets to what????

as for a bravo behind a 1000hp at 150 no thank you! i had soem bravo funiness (no breakage just popped otu of gear due to my mis adjustment of teh shifter) happen to me at 60 earlier this season and that was enogh for me, thank you very much!

But at 1000hp you coudl snap thta lieka twig

Damn Puder, I can't believe you never heard of an E ticket ride! Disney of course!

haha sorry guys. YOu got afew years on me, Let not foget until hyperbaja showed up i was OSO's youngest member. :D

as for a 4x4 holding 1000hp. As i recall merc only warrantees ssm6 drives upto 900hp. And a 6 is a ****load beefier than ANY bravo derrivative, and guys still manage to break em.

Yeah they have come a long way with the b1 upgrades But at 150 any minor drive issue is catastrophic and they will be calling a diver to collect the passengers.

That being said i do like the eticket ride and these guys seem to know what they are doing and are the manufacturers testign thier new design. So its more reasonable for them to go further out on the edge.

WOW, man you guys are knocking on the 150 mark for sure!!!! I would love to go on a ride in that bad boy!!!!
keep us posted on speed and how it handles, also do you have any plans for building any bigger boats in the future? thanks for the info Larry
