How fast and how does it handle, I have rode and drove my friends 42 with #6's and 700's just wondering the difference

112-114 mph, not quite as stable as the 42 but its 4 ft shorter going 10 mph faster.

Here is mine with mentioned upgrades. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rMgXSAjGZrM I added quicker steering and I like it better. You will need stronger power steering shafts when adding quicker steering.

It is always great to watch the video of Rogers 38. Brian Forehand also did the set-up on my 38.
