Not to knock all the Skaters and MTI's, but what a accomplishment for a center pod boat that is not a true cat...
I am the proud owner of a Eliminator and it nice that Greg and Eliminator is getting some good notoriety. Congrats to the whole team at Teague Performance and to Eliminator for building a great boat. Great job guys-

It is a great job and a great run. I wonder what a smaller 32 Skater would run with the same power. All of the Skater's and MTIs each year in the shootout are 36 and up. Never seen a smaller 32 Skater run with that kind of huge power.., so it takes the bigger cats a little longer to get going on the 1 mile course.. Olson's boat had twin 1800hps for the run, would be curious too see what a 328 Skater would run with the same power..

Great Job GT performance and Eliminator, outstanding run!

A few years ago, Leon Dereberry of Dereberry Performance marine of Lake Texoma ran his B-yond Reason 32 skater at 172 mph if I'm not mistaken. So there is one comparison for you to research out.

Just Kudo's to a 33 Eliminator is all I'm saying---

Its an outstanding run, I agree. That is a great looking and handling 33 Daytona...!! I was just saying that a similar size Skater would run 190+ too with that same power. MTI doesn't make a boat that small. Romer ran 191 in a 388 with Brummett 1500s( I think) much less power, larger boat.

Anyways, it was a great run by Olson! 192mph Wow..!! I was hoping to see him run again today, but it didnt happen..

The 32 wide body out east with JC power was deep in the one seventies i believe. I heard a couple rumors about the Eliminator today though. One: it was running E-85 ethanol and two: hes wife took the keys after the last run lol.

Are those basically just drag engines that were built for that one event or is this something that will last for a while in his boat for pleasure boating?
