No. A kilo run is entirely different than the shootout. The shootout is run from practically a dead stop and the boat is given a radar timed top speed at the end of one mile.

Re: When's LOTO's Kilo run
KiloKat: One mile isn't very far...almost a drag race for offshore boats. Does the need for acceleration make the PSI preferable or is low speed acceleration limited by other factors anyway? Does trading off some low RPM power for top end power makes sense at LOTO, or is it just for kilo runs? Just curious.
