180 mph, thanks Reggie and the guys at Real Fast Marine
 
I got my MTI back this week from Real Fast Marine, Reggie Fountain III converted it from a rudder boat to a #6 drive, redid the engine compartment, removed the bulges from the side, lowered the motors and moved them back, did some work on the bottom, blue printed the skags, changed the angle of the transom, lowered the X dimension. And dialed it all in. I have NEVER been in any boat that was so smooth, I don't mean the ride, I mean with the motors running, transmissions and drives turning, it feels like a electric motor, it's fantastic. You can tell this boat is very happy, first time out, I had one of my employees driving that has never drivin a cat before, and 2 others in the boat and we hit 180 on the limiters with a set of 40's, it was still pulling! Great job guys and thank you so much! Race anyone?

We will have the boat on display at the Overland Park, Saint Louis and Tulsa boat shows.
