I have the white one its in long island new York with 555 and whipples 100+

What's the full story on this Gladiator? Is this the first Glad, converted Team Virgin race boat?
I read that CMS racing rebuilt the 525 to 540's. Did Bob Bull own this boat

Yes it the old team virgin and yes it was the first. It replaced Tres Martins F2 gun. Don't know if bull owned it or if CMS went through it.

I personally love that thing. And for that price?? Crazy cool boat.

The engines have the 3 on intake. This boat was upside down at one point?

Tres Spun or rolled it yes. Learning curve with the "new" steps.

I don remember this boat having any spins or tools when Tres and Todd raced it. The F2 Gun did spin once.

I missed That part of the Class w Tres lol.

Was this the same boat? Threw them out also?

Yes. This is what I'm referring to. Of course I'm getting old and have problems retaining all the details of the useless cigarette info floating around in my brain. maybe I'm confusing the Gun with the glad and this video. Eh, whatev. Bad boat at that price either way
