i don't know how your rudder boat ran, except when lance and bullock ran it... but my 36 started to get a little loose as it approached the mid 150's --- on rails at 151-152.

Whatchu talkin about Blume? Why you asking questions you already know the answers to? Funny thing is, we still don't have a clue on the top speed.

You know I know you have the fastest boat on Grand, I was just seeing if 44mti would say it.

My opinion is that "Spec Class Racing" speaks volumes on this subject matter. Comparable size boats, same HP, same drives and same weights. Sort of solves the whole debate issue, rather than trying to compare boats participating in a Poker Run.

It doesn't even really matter anymore though, E Dock is dead. So I guess you gotta try to be the fastest pleasure boat in the Midwest? Somewhere to start...

QUOTE=anchor;3823118]Geez I have yet to see an mti pass our 388....oh wait there was a guy from NY with a 48 with 1350's that told everybody he was going to spank us at Rock the Bay but when he couldn't and we had it on video he told everybody that I was a dangerous driver and he had the wrong props on but gosh darn the guy had 10 sets with him....surely he could have picked the right set.
I have no dog in this hunt...We are small time....only ever owned one skater but then again it was the only one we ever needed because nobody has beaten us and it runs ever time we turn the key
It's a Skater Nation....... Rock on!!!![/QUOTE]

This is Brad Benson from nj. not ny. And I was the owner of the 48 mti that day at rock the bay. I would like to adress the many half truths of anchors previous statements. Why I am using my real name. You guys are little guys? lol you own the marina! probably more expensive real estate than I could ever afford. 40 sets of props? Try one set! 39s. Your boat runs every time you turn the key? You need a bible... I hear that you have been through a few sterlings just last summer!
As for the poker run and you being the designated pace boat.. there are at least 75 witnesses to you being the pace boat supposedly. We didnt even know we were running you until my son saw u coming from the rear. but u were one man in boat ran up the left side of the bay 50 feet from the shore as we went on a 20 degree arch and then got trapped behind the slower poker run boats. Until we ran out of room we pulled you at will. I was a gentleman and never said a word.
I will never run you in that little channel. My boys are always with me. And I am sorry I sold that boat because I would love to run you in safe water where it would be easy. But my new boat will make u scream foul and i know you wont show up for that. Oh by the way you are little guys with big rolexes! So i will be there next year. lets run for real. Why didnt you go on the run any way? HMMMMMM:lolhit:
