I'd be hard pressed to believe the imco scx drives coupled to 1300's, would last running like this every weekend for a entire summer even running like this. I'd want 6's or asd's if you wanna run all out in anything more than 1ft chop. And this isnt really ''big water'', but is on lake michigan. I'd think even repeated running like this every weekend with 1300's, the 6's would be needing frequent freshen ups.

One of the big advantages to the Skater is being 20-40mph faster, it can afford to run soooo much more locked in in the big water, and still be faster than the Apache running as loose as it can be

Only a Skater or Apache or copy or reproduction or any variance of the above that resembles a boat will be allowed to paricipate in the said Onion Run.
Kinda left it wide open

But seems to me that a CAT would win in the rough, especially if it has a faster top speed, up to a certain wave height, then the V would win, since it can still transverse the waves even if it has to slow down, where the cat will stuff if it has to slow down, lose the air packed in the tunnel, waves start slapping the bottom of the hull, etc etc.
Hopefully its rough and we can find out! I will be there thats for sure!
