Yeah..me and the rest of C5 with very few exceptions would have to move up lol. We just kept up with the trend when we put the 650 in the Krypto. I get your point though...and I agree with half of it. We need a set of rules...real rules...that are written down and that are enforced! Dont mess with C5 now...just amend the rules so that the current competition level in the class is kept.

Did someone say "SANDBAGGING" ? Tell me it's not true that anyone would be doing that. Ok, you have a 30' boat with @600hp and it can only do 75mph?
Sounds like a problem with the boat or is it just driver error.
Now how can a twin engine boat with stock? power not do over 75mph? And is it "stock"? Look V vrs Cat is the age old fight and both will win in certin waters. I don't care how much power you throw at it, it will do what the driver/boat will allow. If it's 75 mph or 100 mph. The other issue is how fast can you turn without going swimming? So I feel the speed cap is the best way to keep it equal. In rough water the V's will be the strong ones, in smooth water the cats will be.
It's all in the driving and setup boy's.
