The boat currently runs 2-3lbs boost only @ 50000RPM with a lab finished 32' Bravo one four blade. The motor is only turning about 570HP in its current set up. Change prop to 31' and turn RPM up to 5700-5800 and it will be faster than you want to drive it. The way it's set up now it accelerates like a rocket to 82mph/5000rpm. The bottom line is it's 49k which is a STEAL and has been sold about 10 times and fallen apart about 8 times because people have been unable to get financed. We are currently considering tearing boat down and selling parts which would sell for more than 49K. Thanks for those of you supporting us on this thread.

Definitely a bad-azz boat. It would be a sweet as a 5 man bolster set-up and probably an easy change.

Well there you have it, Pantera with an identity crisis...........its a bit like that Malibu, but the other way round, really. Hard knukkle boat with hard knukkle cockpit....and soft porn motor. Rigging looks clean, too.

Yup, could be a nice pantera for the right person. I was talking with Scott and Greg about this boat, I told Scott that I would be interested in putting together a deal on it going on his reputation as to the condition of the boat. But I did need to trade my boat , only problem was that this was when they had a lot of people interested in it so Scott low balled the trade probably thinking if I went for it he could't lose and if not there were a couple of other cards on the table. Oh well sometimes when you gamble like that you lose. Good thing he has deep pockets and can afford to take those gambles. Sales 101 never blow off a perspective sale completely because that offer you didn't want to waste time on just might be the one that actually goes through. I know I know I 'm wasteing way to much time on this. Way too much caffine!

Well I´d guessed that that hood scoop wasn´t put there to keep chickens in
Thats how the Pantera should be!
I reckon it must be one of the smallest (and cheapest) boats on Shogren´s lot. What woud they do with a trade in?

Griswald, Nitrous big block or huffed small block (twin turbo or centrifugal supercharger I'd guess)? I'd heard that the little tires don't like big torque so I'm guessing small block. Post some video! What ETs? I'll guess 8.70's.

2 kit Nitrous small block 434". Below is a link to an 1/8th mile pass. Best ET I ran it to was 8.37 @ 164.9 in the 1/4. We don't do much 1/4mi stuff down here......all 1/8th. It was a fun car and I enjoyed running it. Not sure what Scott is doing with it. He told me he took it to the track once, but ended up not running it. It's listed for sale on his website. Motor is 100% fresh. It will make someone a nice toy.
