It is very nice by the way but that is a very time consuming and expensive process.

i've noticed on my buddy's skater (obviously w/out a center pod) it's a little squirrely sometimes at low speeds until you really get movin... then it's like it's on rails.

i have always wonder how those boats feel at those speeds compared to a true tunnel w/ no pod.... it will be interesting to see what number it runs....

ELIMINATOR BUILT A 33 WITH MERC 900s AND #6 DRIVES AND THAT BOAT RAN 145MPH OUT OF THE BOX(1 ST RUN) THE 36 IS LOT MORE STABLE, IVE BEEN IN BOB LAST POKER RUN BOAT AT 138 WITH 900s AND MY 9 YEAR OLD COULD DRIVE IT. THE LATEST 36 WILL BE EXCITING TO SEE THE FINAL TOP SPEED.
