I will have to look for the HP. Tommy at Chief had an article or Youtube on the upgrade. |

Yes on both. U coming to Desert Storm?
I also want to go to the Miami boat show this year. You would think living in Florida it would be easy but Miami is not that close. |

Where would be the best place to stay during the shootout? This is going to be my first visit so I would appreciate some help. Somewhere with boat slip and parking for trailer.
Thanks, Michael |

"Hoftstetter also was proud of the new 1,600-hp engines he installed in Bill Pyburn’s 38-foot Skater Powerboats catamaran Pure Platinum for the poker run. The 572-cubic-inch engines with Whipple Superchargers and Hofstetter’s electronic engine system management reportedly make 1,600 hp on 93-octane fuel" Story was in Speed on the Water by Matt I think. |

Bullhead, I found it and it's a big upgrade. If Pure Platinum ran 186mph with 1350hp what do you think he will run with Chief 1600's?

Just around the corner folks. A few of us are even doing mods and testing. We went 131mph with the current setup Saturday in a simulated "Shootout" run.
I think we will see a 220mph run this year and at least 2 boats go over 200mph. Add/Subtract to the list if you know who is coming/not coming. Updated Wish List My Way (208+) Qatar (200+) 40'MTI with 2200s (????) Sterling Skater (????) Randy's Marine Concepts boat (180+) M41 from DCB (175.5) Bob Bull MTI (180+) CRC (insert speed) Aqua Mania (insert speed) Onken Mystic (150+) Pool's Skater (190+) Skater Predator (insert speed) Gus's SLW 388 Skater (200) Still waiting for input on the "insert speed"s above |

make sure to check out the 25th anniversary shootout shirt this year. Looks great and only limited quantity.
