Yes, grand haven/spring lake was getting bad a few years before I moved up north. Lots of good times and memories down there but up north they don't even look twice at a load boat. I remember blue moon having turn down detachable pvc pipes then on his 25 checkmate. Looked a little goofy but got the job done.

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

Is it 2010 again???? The 288 kid is back!!!! Just wanted to inform you if you didn't already know: Single Zero is not a real offshore boat with those bravos on it! Good luck, better stay to the small inland lakes!

But how much fuel does Single- Zero hold and what is Single- Zeros burn rate? I'll bet you lunch that I can blow up the engines in the OG Unleashed before you can blow Single- Zeros as I like to start running them hard during the build process. I try to have metal in the oil of Unleashed's engines before they even get off the dyno.

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 just have a toggle switch for a throttle in Unleashed is that what you have on Single Zero? Do you have a pic of Single-Zero?
