Speedy 30' Eliminator

I have a guy on my lake that says he has a 30' Eliminator with 500 EFIs with pro chargers producing 750hp. He said he is running 30" props and claims to run 130mph.

My computer says, "baloney!"

Can he really be running that fast with this setup?

It's the old statement.....on Friday nites before the Poker Run they all run over 100 until Saturday morning, then they all have excuses.

Maybe with 1.25 gears turning 6500 rpms, but that is very unlikely.

With 1.36 gears, 32" wheels, solid lifter 750 hp engines, that boat will run 120 - 125 @ 6300 rpms
