Super Bad Gladiator
 
https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...01d9d6841e.png
I need to get in touch with the owner. We had a blast running together in Key West Sunday after the races were over. We communicated briefly afterwards but didn’t exchange info. This Gladiator definitely lives up to it’s name. She’s a runner for sure!!!

Anyone who knows the owner please pass my contact along......

Good to hear everyone played safe and had a great time in KW.

He posted above also, but it was "hidden." Because he is a brand new member and the post had an email link, it needed moderator approval.

Thanks for the show in the Harbor you two put on...

Sure was some bad ass hardware in Key West as always...

Don't know what Super Bad has for power, but we were at Gilbert's on the dock when they departed.. sounds very nice when they got up on plane after going under the bridge!! sweet boat!

Tank and Kelly, nice meeting you guys in Key West.

Gotta love that 42 Tiger, nice boat Kelly

Perfect answer in a single photo for when someone asks, " Why do you own one of those NOISY cigar boats?"

Jason (Ventura) told me it had warmed over 525s and IMCOs.
According to the way it runs they’re very warmed over.

It was great to meet you and and your family as well Tony!
Always nice to put a face with a name and make a new friend.
It astounds me to think of all the friends I’ve made because of this sport but more directly as a result of OSO.
Some of the best people in the world are here on this board.
Amazing.

I didn’t notice the crowd until it was over and we were idling back it.
It was quite a crowd.
Hope everyone enjoyed it, I know we sure did.

They are warmed up 525 originally built by potter performance then rebuilt just before the poker run by Myers Brothers Marine

Yes they are slightly warmed up nothing crazy just cam and retunes stock porting and stock stroke 4.500 bore for the refresh and flat top pistons. No Imcos just bravo XR uppers and mercury sport master lowers

Kelly gives new meaning to the “Flying Tiger” reference!

payuppsucker 11-17-2019 07:41 AM

BTW, Superbad (Kelby) and I spoke at length on Tuesday.
He is just another cool dude like that enjoys the sport like the rest of us.
Look forward to seeing y’all in Key West next year bro!

Geez, What are the chances that two guys named Kelly and Kelby would ever meet each other running Cigarettes together in Key West! Don’t know why, but I think there is something Cosmic happening -Just sayin!

Seems like there’s something cosmic happening everywhere I go lately, except not always in a good way 🤬😂

sprsptr 11-18-2019 04:23 PM

Cosmic
 
Ah, There’s the challenge my friend, learning to distinguish and enjoy the moments between cosmic and mnemonic! 🧠

As a simple question , based in reality here, just how HARD does a 42 Cig with Bravos run?????????????????

No offense to the brand here at all, but really how HARD can a boat the size run with Bravos before it takes the big dump ?

Can’t say, mine has 6’s and they’ll take everything you can dish out.

thisistank 11-18-2019 05:39 PM

Mmmmmmm nothing like running 2,000 HP through 6’s on a tiger in some decent water.
