Mike, this is the thread with all of the info for this weekend, I am not sure if I will be down for the races, I know quite a few boats will be at Smitty's marine in bricktown, rt 70 north, Is the tab to take out the lope at 70 or so? be careful, turnning the boat can be a handfull, the water gets on top of the tab in a hard corner, and instead of letting the boat slide a little, it tends to trip, and the turn, If you are going to Skaterfest, talk to Doug Lewis, or T2x, both have quite a bit of exp. with tunnel tabs. If I go to the races this weekend, i will give you my cell.

Philip Yea you know what that tab is for. Porpoise is between 60-80mph right at cruise speed. Have to trim out at 80 to smooth out. Too fast for most days on the bay. I don't know if it will help at top speed, that would be nice but is not my purpose. Thanks for the head up. talk later
