Jcap has hit low 90s with around 700HP, so 850 might just be enough...

Authority= Mr. John Coen himself... We were talking yesterday about speed and I asked him the million dollar question: how much hp to hit 100mph? He said that the first Y2K bottom w/ 800hp MRD motor in it hit 95 out of the box, no dialing in or anything. He felt 850 was enough to get there and that any more was over-kill.
1000hp= 115mph!!!!!
1000hp= 115mph!!!!!

The Zuperboat Will Never See 100 Again. The Speedmaster/power Robbing Sponge Is Killing Me. We Will See If My New 18 Inch 3 Blade Will Help. Bblades Is Going To Make It Into A Monster Chopper After I Get Some Reference Numbers.
