Eliminators Take over Loto
 

Great times this weekend for the Shootout. I think at last count we saw 35 eliminators total. various length Vbottoms, lots of 25's a handful of 27's, 3 different 33's and 4 different 36's.

BBoater it was nice meeting you and the crew. That 33 looks better in person than in the pics. Its came along way since I saw it out in California outta the molds. :ernaehrung004:

We also got to see a very nice mid 90's V-bottom as well.

Which Elim was "big man on campus" (motors/drives/top speed?)

Pretty sure that goes to the 36 from Colorado. 1500's Number 6 drives 154mph

I think I just wet myself. :eek:

I would have loved to have seen that!!!!!

It looked awsome running down the lake. Should have pics a lil later after I go through them all. I think he hurt a motor on the last pass.

GREG OLSON WITH HIS 2008 33 DAYTONA W/ 1500'S AND #6 DRIVES TOOK TOP CAT AWARD FOR FASTEST PLEASURE BOAT AT 154MPH. HE DID BLOW A INTAKE GASKET ON HIS LAST RUN. PRETTY GOOD FOR THE FIRST SHAKEDOWN. JUST WAIT TELL NEXT YEAR IT WILL BE ALOT FASTER WITH SOME TWEAKING.

Doh My bad. It looked so smooth making the run it looked like a 36 running down the lake.:drink:

At 154 mph I would imagine it's pretty tough to tell the difference.

I would expect a 33 with that kind of heat to be running in the 160's plus.....crazy!!

They only get a mile to make the pass. The water gets a lil hairy as well, so they dont always get to show their best top speeds at the shootout.

You got to remeber this speed is within a mile and at idle at the starting line. It was the first time out so it will only get better.
