2014 Loto was a bucket list thing for us. My run was less than ideal having to have hundreds of lbs of ballast in the stern to counter the excessive stern lift that I was experiencing at top speed. Afterwards I vowed to try hard to correct this problem so that my 36 could reach its full potential.
We were holding off on Loto this year until the modifications to the tunnel pods are completed and the new engine spacing and dialing in is done.
I sure hope this all works
