I will bring my GoPro. I have become an expert with Premier Pro editing. I'll make that baby look fast even if it's not. We're not talking some boring ass suction cup look at my rooster tail mount. This is going to be on the extension pole, motor compartment shots, full action footage. Can you embroider "BAM" on my seat headrest.

Ohhhh……and a matching Lifeline jacket with BAM on the left breast.. Thank you.

Gino's boat will leave the factory with the 1350s in it… He may do 1650s in the future…

The boats run so well with 1350s that you would really have to "want it" to go with the 1650s… $, race gas, and more maintenance are big factors.

Noone needs to know Ginos setup…but it will certainly run

Yes, Mark G's 38 will pull more propeller without trouble…
We set it up how he requested… It's quite a dragster as he has it set up now.

btw

on the 48 with carbon

what is the weight savings vs normal lamentation schedule ???
They are estimating around 1000 lbs. Guess we would have to weigh it to know for sure. I'm trying to keep the rigging extra light without giving up all the comforts. It WILL NOT have a huge stereo or any such nonsense. A couple of the seats will be easily removed, etc.
I, too wanted 1650's REAL bad, but hauling fuel by the drum and freshening motors way more often was a trade off I wasn't willing to make. There were other concerns as well, but I think the 1350' will push the rig along just fine.

Tim, since my boat is at MTI right now, why don't you ask randy to throw some 1350's and big gears in her! Have randy take take her for a spin and see what she will do...LOL.
I like my 1100 set up though. Long as I can run with Chad, I'm happy! I like my lil dragster!

chatviper: saw you boat there last week, gotta say its one of my all time favorites! The colors just pop on that boat! They had a few 1350's sitting on the floor, I'm sure they could swap them for a small fee! Lol

Appreciate you saying that!! Thank you!

Maybe i'll get a sneak peak of yours when I pick mine up in a few weeks. If, your new beast is still there!

LOL, a small fee indeed!
