Ilmor 710 "singing"
 

Heres a short clip of my first ride in my new LaveyCraft 2750 .

Were at Elsinore doing a test hop before we head out to bigger water.

We were spinning a labbed 28 about 6K in this clip.

You can hear that Ilmor 710 pretty well from 24 seconds on

A 28 at 6K!! Impressive. What mph is that?

Thanks
 

90 off a handheld gps.

I didnt play around with the built in gps enough to get the speed screen up, or even set it up at all.

congrats! :drink:
Sounds sweet!

I wasn't able to open the vid.... but had a question.

What drive are you running and do you know what your X dimension is? Spacers? Shortie?

Thanx

hmmm
 

Hmm its a standard quicktime file should open - sorry.

Drive is a Teague platinum. Teague uses an imco lower which is a bit better hydrodynamically than a sportmaster lower. (I lost 4MPH on my tunnel when I went to a sportmaster)

It has an ITS instead of external hydraulic steering which "acts" as about a 2 inch spacer.

Dont know the X dim, but its up there enough to completely blow the prop out

You can look at comprehensive picts of the entire build in the Laveycraft forum under "out of the mold Im blown away" and under the Ilmor 710 thread.

looks like
 

Looks like OSO turns everything into a .mov no matter what you upload,
I can email the file directly to a different address if you like. Its a short clip.

What I didnt finish typing was that the x dim seems high, and if you just "fathand" the stick out of the hole it'll blow out even a 5 blade 28.

Its certainly nothing unmanageable, but I wouldn't loan it to a "bayliner" guy without letting him get some seat time.

The nordic guys like their heats congratulations

Id like a ride in your rig some day. DO you have picts?
