Anyone, Poker Face and Lucky 7's WOT??
 
Anyone know what Poker Face and Lucky 7's ran WOT, I think it was around 104mph but I can't remember. Also where those boats with the Carbon fiber deck?

Thanks

I drove them both.

Poker face with 525's ran 89 MPH on the GPS with the current on the St. Johns River and 86 MPH against the current. This was with very low fuel, four large guys and it was HOT at 99 degrees out. I would call it an 87.5 MPH boat that might hit 90 MPH if conditions were just right. It accellerated like a bat out of hell.

Lucky 7's hit 99.8 MPH on GPS last August on Lake Erie with six people and low fuel. It ran strong and probably would do 104 + with one person and the right conditions.

I too drove both, I ran Poker Face in salt at 87.8mph and when Luck was at my store it had too big of props. I beat on it for 3 days and saw 94.5 at best. That next week it was at Cumberland and seemed to be the same speed as out 700 boat. 92-94. Two weeks later at the dealer meeting, it had the 34's back on it and Billmeyer ran it to 98.6.

Poker being a PR lay-up and Lucky being a regular boat, Poker seemd very light at WOT, although fun! Jason said Poker was too light for big water.

I loved the sound of the 525s in Poker Face, and the acceleration from hell. I remember giving Billmeyer a short break at Dealer Meeting and took a load of overseas dealers. I saw 87 and some change with 6 people (including myself) and close to a full tank. I couldnt understand what they were saying after the ride, but they were smiling from ear to ear afterwards and all shook my hand!:cool:
