First off I've been a lurker for a year or so and figured I should introduce myself and get more "involved". My name is Reece and boat with my dad mostly on Lake Ouachita in Arkansas. Here's a quick rundown of our boat. Its a 2009 25' Eliminator Daytona with a 572ci engine running a 4 liter whipple charger at 11lbs boost @ 5800 redline (made right at 1060HP). A small boat with this type of power is crazy fun! Outdrive is an imco SCX with 1.36 gear ratio turning a 32 pitch 4 blade bravo. Fastest we've ran it is about 125 @ 5600rpm before it starts getting a little "light" and porpoising. We are going to drop the lower 2" this winter and see if this helps the problem.

(wish I could figure the embedding out to have the video on this thread)

Here are a couple of pics!

Welcome to OSO and it's good to see you guys have a boat of the feline persuasion . Thanks for the ride , that's pretty impressive .

Nice video 8 mins at 100+mph and 1060hp through an XR

Hi Reece!

Nice boat and thanks for the ride over 100 MPH, also thanks for posting the video.

Forgive me on the video quality as I made it on my ipad in about 45 minutes with imovie. For the time invested I think it turned out ok.

No problem Im glad others can see what we high-performance boaters live for from a first person perspective!

We were crusing at 80-90 for the first 3 minutes or so to let the internals, oil temps, and supercharger temps come up before we ran her hard! The XR has been holding up well for 1000+hp....we try not to mash the throttle on take off but we definitely arent easy on the drive one bit once planed out!

Thanks! Theres nothing like a nice runnin' cat!

Thanks for the ride , that's pretty impressive .

Welcome Reece to OSO. I have a 25 Talon with outboards. They are a blast. Merry Christmas.
