Oh I bet there is more to be had for sure....RF's pickup design is trick as hell.

Very clean and sweet setup...thank you for sharing pics. We are hoping for similar speeds...should know more in a couple weeks.

The lowers are the big limitation. There's 6 mph left on the table just with the lowers. A set of sixes & it would scare the HELL out of 130 mph.

Not on your boat but going to the sc lowers on the one I have here would. The new style pickup we make would definitely improve the speed & handling on your boat.

I said you would definitely have more issues with them but they would be faster. I thought I had you talked into it but if I remember imco talked you out of them.
