As far as SINGLE-ZEROs fuel consumption ill just say this. SINGLE-ZERO burns a lot. When I say a lot, I mean SINGLE-ZERO burns it all, every time I splash it, SINGLE-ZERO is either idle, or wide fukin open boys. SINGLE-ZERO holds the factory 75 a side. SINGLE-ZEROS handler, me, cant afford fancy race bladders.

I don't know about SINGLE-ZERO, but I don't even have a toggle switch, and I used a space-age epoxy to secure the butterflies wide open and the shift shaft in the Forward position. I start NAUT LIKELY in gear (saves the lower unit internals) and just GO! Unloading and docking NAUT LIKELY is kind of a pain, but it's worth it for the overall simplicity and drive longevity.

I have a car named Full Tilt. I don't run Full Tilt at the track much anymore so I'm going to take the delay box off of Full Tilt's engine and install it in Unleashed and hook it up to the shifter. I figure full throttle about .5 secs after shifting will be about right. Edit in brainstorm- I'll also pull the 2-step box off Full Tilt and install it on Unleashed. I'll set the lower limit at 800 rpm, that way I can just engage the revlimiter to retain shifting capabilities.

i just want everyone to know I will have the baddest gladiator (SINGLE-ZERO) in Michigan next summer. I run SINGLE-ZERO soo god damn hard I don't let off till the oil pans have matching windows on BOTH sides of the pan, not just 1 side. I also break SINGLE-ZEROS drives occasionaly because I believe in driving SINGLE-ZERO hard as fuk. SINGLE-ZERO will have fresh N/A motors and drives AND will continue to run over the century mark. SINGLE-ZERO is sadly only a pleasure gladiator with bravos but none the less SINGLE-ZERO has both hour meters AND gas gauges. SINGLE-ZERO's motors will be ran just as hard, if not harder than unleashed I can assure you. SINGLE-ZERO will be at Boyne Thunder and Thunder Fest and everyone is more than welcome to come tell me how badass it is. I ask that you refer to SINGLE-ZERO as SINGLE-ZERO and not just as "your boat" when talking to me.
thanks

I'm just glad you actually kept this boat after having a little engine trouble instead of bowing out like last time with the 33AT!
But don't think just cause SINGLE-ZEROs engines are getting rebuilt by the same builder as Unleashed you will be able to keep up ;-)

No no no M8's all day
I don't know your group of guys but I will say that Kevin has reached out to me and given his advice on questions that I've had, most of which I've found very helpful and I appreciate that very much. I can admit that there are others that have more knowledge about the hobby than I do, and I'm happy to listen to them. And I don't think there's anything wrong with a guy being proud of his rig or setup. If you ask me, if we're members on one of these sites and are able to play in this hobby we're all doing pretty good and have a lot to be happy about!
Now come on spring!!!
