D&M Saber at Loto shootout
I saw it run the 79 Saturday and heard it ran 77 Sunday. Does anyone have any video of it?

Yep, we ran 79 and 78mph on Saturday, but it was loading up pretty bad from all the idleing we had to do to get threw the no wake. On our second run on Saturday it was poping quite a bit.... I wanted to try one more time on sunday to break 80mph and thought it could be done, we checked in at the start boat and they said it would be a while since we had 15 boats ahead of us. So we took it down the lake a little bit to warm it up and to blow it out, then as we headed back to the start boat we ran out of gas in one motor. ARG!! So I ideled over to the nearest gas dock, got 15gal of gas and made my way back to the start boat. By they we had lost our turn so after waiting for quite a while we ran it threw but couldn't get the RPM's we wanted...........
So we won our class but didn't break 80mph.......
......(cough) maybe P5 is a better class for us......We'll see.....

Cool. The Saber sounded really sweet going down the course. I motored around the Shooters docks Saturday on a PWC to try to get some pics of the 28 but I didn't see it there. On the way out I was asked to help tug the D&M MTI into it's slip....hopefully it's o.k.....never did hear what happened to it.
