Its still at the painters but getting closer I hope, just have to finish up the clear coats and put things back together... I didn't run it that hard last year when I bought it, fastest I had it up to was around 110 but it should go to 125 or so.

No it's not finished yet, had a little issue with the notch and filler pieces had to be added and glassed in to allow them to be lowered a bit...., but it's getting closer...here's the latest pics from this morning, the new billet swim platform fabricated for me by Trio Precision and one of the boxes are on...Should be done hopefully by Christmas....

Either way I'm looking forward to 09....
