Hey Dennis,

The Bad Boys Powerboat performed very well! I can say that with the numbers we saw this past week she will be a contender in 2005.

Thumbs up Re: Throttle Up testing

Just got back in NJ. Tiered,beaten up,confused,broke and loving every minute of it. Trophy ***** is on the road driving back today and Big Eddy will be leaving soon.
Thanks Throttle Up and Hydromotive for all the time spent with us over the last 4 days.
7 different props, 2 different lowers and spacers all tested in calm water and then all over again in rough water. All test included top speed,turning,balance,RPM and acceleration times from 65-80 MPH. You are looking at aprox 75 trips on and off the trailer. The crazy part is you could spend another 1-2 weeks easily. My hats off to any twin motor teams that do all there homework and test all the variables. There set up is at least 3-4 times the amount of work.

My hat off to Typoon as well. It takes alot of work and dedication to get your boats dialed in. Typhoon proved this week that they have what it takes to conduct a proofessional racing team! This year should be one of the best for you both. Knowing what drive and propeller combination to use in what situation will always be to your advantage!Thank you so much for a wonderful productive week!

Julie, Matt, Thom and Todd

Randy, you forgot to thank one other person. Mike Flannigan, Lightning Strikes, for bringing the fuel so you and Glen could make that flight!
