I like it as is, but, a couple of carbon fiber nitrous tanks and alcohol and it's a much quicker 105
Best Regards,
Steve

ha... ha... You so funny.

Actually several of them are coming together. The plane is ready to fly, the 911 is getting close to be running and driving, and that custom motor is ready less a bit of machine work on the mid.

I know I probably should not be talking, but.....

The 911 is close - I heard that 5 years ago.

The plane is ready to fly - I heard that 3 years ago.

I'll probably be working - I hear that every time you do not show up for an event.

You have backed yourself into a corner with this one, turn key, ready to go. You have to show up.

Incredible boat.

I saw that you had an Allison. That ain't no Allison. My concern would be balance. Thats 800#s' hanging off that transom. The last guy I remember on S&F with a 21' Challenger with twins wrecked it shortly after getting it together. Have fun and be careful.

is the most difficult boat to drive I've ever owned.
Most of the small boat guys say the Hydrostream Vector is the most difficult small boat (single O/B) to drive fast and I owned it it and my old 24' Sonic at the same time.
No contest. The Stream would run gonzo, no hands through all the conditions it was set up for. The Sonic would do same for 100 yards (both hands on wheel) and then change it's mind on what it wanted.

After spending some time in the Sonic I have to agree. You were about a busy as a pilot can be and still be right side up. For sure more skill than I have.

I also spent some time with Paul in one of his Allisons. That thing required a soft touch but once it was set it ran real nice.

My experiences with you V guys just reminded me why all my boats are tunnels.
