heavily considering it. Unfortunately with a small budget and being in the midwest, we couldnt do very many races. Gulf and LOTO would be about it.. but still tryin to put some numbers together...

I cant PM you, Wahoo!

Nope, I live in Oklahoma.. Gotta lot of investigating to do first as far as insurance and all that.. I emailed fastboats for some more information on the motors and such. Hopefully theyll give me a shout back and see what we can stir up.

I dont think it would be that difficult to stagger those motors. All the hardware is already there other than some drive shafts that will need to be fabricated than you will have a smoking boat!

Plus you get a nice new transom out of the deal.

From what i understand, Factory 2 Class did not allow a staggered setup. Strictly Business is racing in OPA C2 (Staggered engines) and is very, very fast. I would think you could set it up as staggered engine boat without too much invested. At that price, I cant see how u could go wrong if it floats.
