Speed limit on the river is 45mph

Ss930 might be able to do that with tabs all the way down and drives tucked.... Maybe, Adam how about you and pops? Can your boat cruise at that speed?

I think I can stay on plane at 45 with tabs down and drives tucked all the way in, but I really don't know. Atleast I'm quiet though, they will surely go after you guys making all that noise.

Let the towns and state spend 50 grand on us "outlaws". Let's go out and compete for who can make a perfect LEGAL run, don't give the bastards a reason to write a single ticket. If the cops have an "unproductive" day, they'll tire of this quickly and leave us alone.
I agree with you, but the reason for me being 50/50 is not because of possible patrols, but because the Rage might not have some of its painting done in time.

I'm really bummed about this. I don't mind No Wake zones, but driving all the way down there and being forced to stay at/below 45 MPH really svcks.
