Single is the way to go with that hull. Probably handle much better to.

What is the speed bracket in class 4 & 5?
Where is the schedule? How do you get signed up etc? What kind of safety gear?
I think these would be better questions to have answered.

# 4 - 85mph
# 3 - 95mph
# 2 - 105mph
# 1 - 115mph
Check www.OPAracing.org for an event schedule and rule book. You will need a couple full face helmets and Life line or equivalent life jackets at the very least for gear.

If anyone is interested...The Screamin' Eagle F1/29' Warlock 500efi, is for sale for a very good price. The Carrabas Pantera would not be competitive with its current power.
