Whose Cat at Daytona Speedway?
 

Watching Fox and Daytona 500 testing, there is a 30-32 cat with Mountain Dew banners on the back. Anyone know the boat?

It is an Eliminator 28. They haven't been able to get past 70. Running out of water. Its hard to believe that with all the builders around there that they get a west coast boat:rolleyes:

pretty smart if you ask me, will see more tv time than any other builder that will be at Miami :eek:

I think it came about because Eliminator uses "Daytona" as a line of boats.

good point never thought of that:rolleyes:

It is a 28' Eliminator Daytona with 710 Illmor motors. They are running my props on it...they are 28p 5 blade maximus. The idea behind running such a small prop with that setup was to try and get the boat above 100 m.p.h. and bang the rev. limiters as fast as possible. D. Waltrip better not ding my props...lol

As does Donzi.

yep a black thunder....I was glad to see a offshore on tv for once.......Those nascar guys love the fast boats....Good for the sport..

Here's a short clip of it running at Daytona.

I'm here in Daytona for my job. It's a cool boat to. I don't think they'll let DW drive it.

Haha, that's pretty good. It's got his paint scheme on it too.

Full Wrap on the Eliminator 28 at Daytona
 

Hey guys, it's Kim at The Graphics Company, Eliminator 28.
Bob came to us with this project and asked us to do the almost full wrap on this boat using Darrell Waltrips Mountain Dew Graphics.
What a great project! Almost as exciting as Tanks project huh, Tank. And Yes the sponsons were a challenge. The boat turned out great!!!! We used 3m material with 3m lam.

tnks for info's...Has DW drove the 28' Cat?

He did drive the old style 27 Daytona in 06 with a teague 900.

DW did drive it
 

DW did take the boat out in Lake Llyod at the Daytona Speedway... in fact he took the boat out several times. He drove it three times for pleasure and two time for TV. Everytime he got behind the wheel he was impressed and thrilled with the ride.

And for the record, we got the boat to do a 108 mph in Lake Lloyd. The boat accelarated like crazy.. the mid range was unbelievable...

Some of you may not know but Lake Llyod is about 3 football fields long by one football field wide. It is very tight. Driving a Cat in that kind of condition is a thrill and a rush. I put the 5 blades on and the boat barely bangin the revs... you have to back off the throttle little over half way. I put a pair of 26 pitch lab bravos and hit the revs at half lake but by that time the boat was already hitting a 100 mph.

I will be back to post some pictures.

Eliminator had their own tent set up at the race. They had two boats in the tent, a 28' and a 26' I think. Nice looking boats. It was good to see a powerboat company at the races.

The reason for all the above is that Eliminator Boats are the "Official Boat of NASCAR" I believe this is the second year of that relationship.

"I bet he's gonna order one."

He could just buy mine. and reason for eliminator to be at daytona is daytona is all about speed and beauty as is Eliminator.

Stop dreaming you g@y fuc@ Fountain lover.... :D:D:D
