Spot the multiple clues? Internal estimates are in the 72 mph range. I want one...

Ilmor.........are they putting the 725's in there???

I want one too. Except to afford it, I'd have to sell the house and live on it.

Progress! No messing around in Decatur...

Imagine the shock on other people's faces when you open this hatch!

Very nice package.

Let's hope the Decatur folks address the constructive criticism from Bob Teague on the FX5 in the latest Powerboat review regarding engine compartment rigging.

I guess the downturn has affected everyone, in the past Formula was not interested in going off their set options list at all.

Glad to see it, I never understood why a company like Formula was so rigid in respect to changes from their preset list.

I agree, a 353 with Ilmors would be awesome!
