Default Questions about filling notches in 36 Spectre

What kinds of handling changes did people get when they filled in the notches of the 36? I've got a friend who has a #6 drive 34 DCB who is engineering an adjustable tab to extend the running surface of the sponsons. We know that it will give transom lift which he needs with the weight of the drives and transmissions. I saw the nice job done on the video of the one overseas. Does anyone have any other pictures and words of wisdom? Thanks, Eric

Thanks for the replies. I'll have Jim contact Jay. Red Dragon is way over the top. The rocker plate is a nice piece. Have most of the Spectre's just had glass work or something like the red dragon?

We did one other six boat with arneson rocker plates. The rest of the six boats had the notch filled. Has the Red Dragon hit the water yet?
