A poker run is not a race! We cruised at 45 to 50.
Truthfully, Stu has always been about saftey. His pace boat keeps us at about 75 to 80. Once we got to the ocean and spread out we picked up the pace a bit but nothing crazy.

We bumped the boost to about 12 lbs and changed the rev limiters. I have to tell you, the motors were screaming. I was just waiting for one of them to blow up. While watching it climb, over 150 every mile an hour feels like a lot more. Very cool but a little scary. The attitude of the boat never changed. Still rode like it was on rails. Just scary anticipating an engine problem.
