I mean help me out, what doe a 40 PR Skater run with 525efi's?? I am not looking for a pissing contest, just some honest answers.:ernaehrung004:

size for size, weight for weight, power for power...

cats if you want to go fast, rough or smooth.

vee's if you want to cruise, rough or smooth.

OK, I can accept the facts, I just wanted some:drink: I mean you got to admit, everytime a Cat says he wooped a V, and other way around, it is NEVER a FAIR playing ground.

As for comparing race boats, Holy smokes thats a discussion that I am not going to get into. I see how racers get into it.

I gues the old saying of "How fast does it go, is relative to the size of the wallet":ernaehrung004:

NOW...let us look at how much more money you need to get that 14.5 MPH. How much is the cat MSRP compaired to the V? big price gap between V and Cat. BIG.

so skater is a Ferrari in compairison? So I need to bring my skater in for expensive service all the time and put new clutch packs in every 3 to 6000 miles?

fountainracing65 03-19-2009 05:24 PM

and it goes back to my original point cost...
Mustang gt 500 0-60 4.4 seconds
Ferrari 430 0-60 3.4 seconds

Ferrari.....240,000
Mustang.....40,000
