Cool

With 377 Scorpions the 28's can be in the low 80's, one of our crew Whippled his Scorpions and he is in the low Triple Digits...when he wants to be..

Hmmm

Yep.. Pretty accurate #'s so far for stock units.. They can definitley go faster if you enhance or upgrade the power. They still handle well @ higher speeds too.. They are good boats. Jamie

I have heard that before. I hear that you have have it trimmed just right and let it cook for a while to break 70.
