Gordo-

Will Lynch said Lucky Strike ran 88mph with the 500EFI's. It was later re-rigged with 12" Stelling boxes, XR's, 2" Shorties, & 725 Zul's (I believe 36p 4 blades?) and ran 106mph. It currently runs 93mph with 525EFI. I've been in quite a few Twin Step Top Guns but they don't ride like the F2. It is a very fun boat.

IMO, you can't get much better than that. 93mph w/ stock, reliable power......perfect combo!

I'll definitely take you up on the ride in SoFL. I just need to find another Cig so that I can bring it down there with me..... :(

I was on LS's boat at 93mph with that exact setup in North Miami when I was shopping for my Tiger in Dec 2003.

The previous owner had just taken delivery and we went for a spin with Phil and another gentelmen. Four of us and about 2 ft waves and that thing hauled azz like a raped ape. I don't remember how much gas but my rear end alone is worth close to a full tank!!!

I have been on Lucky's Top Gun more than once and have seen 93 mph on his gps.

Bad azz does not do it justice !
