Congratulations Walter and Team TKO!!!!

Damn. Looks like he's coming out of the bolster on that one.

I think MIKE TELOW just bought those helmets!

cool congrats walt and charlie.

Sure looks that way

That pic was taken in KW when SBI forced Walter to race in P1/117mph class for no good reason.

why dont we see more on TKO!

I mean WTF its a bad azz boat and theres hardly anything video or pictures wise onn the NET

That boat should be all over the place.

It's the silent killer. :evilb:

thanks for waking up from your drug induced coma,only a month late to the party.:lolhit:
i know,stings,bites,falls,sunspots,pollen birds mating,knees,ankles,konrad drives,and a whole book on anatomy has kept you busy.should bought the sutphen.i think i covered your last 400 posts pretty well.:party-smiley-004:

:eek::eek::eek:

welcome back, now behave Bill hahaha
 

BILL welcome back, you missed the balls being operated on in july. hey with my 380s down 3 /4, it went faster than your 30 3 weeks ago. I can't wait for spring my choice in a drive should be better than a b1:grinser010:, that would need upper and lower gears every 100 hours with 1100hp. if it lasted that long. the konrad is massive on the top side. hey I asked richie about the 07 31 he has been sitting on, but he wanted stupid money for it unfinished. BANANA same thing on there never built 28. I got a great motor built by one of the best builders in the buz. while your chine walking, I'll hop right by you this summer:kiss:. this same thing would of happened with a older sutphen or other nonstep boat. the steve stepp and superboats both run awesome with the konrad, there a lg pad and stepped hull boats running high 90s with 800hp on a 30 and 32ft boats. the tranny in a box off sets weight more than I thought. plus the gas tank is in the bilge, theres a new tank going in the floor and if it still porpoises then theres room to move the tranny inside if needed. once we have the bugs out, I am sure you will be reading the words on my transom[ BILL TRY TO KEEP UP] at the fallriver pr or the cape one.:evilb:. thanks for best wishes andencouragement and all, this boat ran great with a bravo set up single, there cutsom built singles and heavy twin boats, have different set ups with gas tanks strakes and stuff. who knows it could of been the props the whole time, I ran a 32 b1 labbed/ 30px5 labbed/ 32 herring labbed. so Bblades said he needs to look at the one that ran the best = 30px5 . don't forget the drive height was a guess a ment too. we started at 3'' konrads rec, then 4'' my idea to start with, then 5 3/4'' and saw no different from 4'' to deeper set up. so we are staying with 4'' and 8'' box. these hulls ran good stock with 5 or 5 1/2'' b1 set ups. are set from the factory with 6 1/2'' to 7 1/2'' propshaft height which made them porpoise a little from 35 to 55 but a little tap would stop it. not 3/4 hahaha. my baja was the same and my friends superboat. these boats have built in rocker to help getting on plane with single hp motors. back in 87 to 96 they built about 26 boats. back then it was 454s 365hp to 502 390hp to hp 465 then 500hp. so the singles had the hook. back in 94 you could get a 28=85grand=85mph with twin 465hps. theres 2 twins that run over a 100 like there on rails, one with B1 drives twin 600 = 110gps and another over that with #5 drives big power. and they don't chinewalk.Is BF site still running gave up on trying sign in, no return calls or emails. plus this site ROCKS anyways.:coolcowboy: if my surgeries go quick this winter we'll be dialing in the boat in march. I take it you never had growing pains on your boat right. thanks Bill for the encouragement on my project:coolcowboy:.ps surgeries= 9 in 6 years and at a min 3 to 4 more. when I grew up I was the guy who would do just about anything to make my friends laugh. oh I would of bought kris's boat 31sutphen had he lowered the price 3 months earlier:party-smiley-004:, big different from 118,000 to 60,000. I had already bought the gellner motor well parts and the konrad. I thought about it but would have had to sell the motor that was in the 31 and the drive set up. and most likely would of had issues with balance with it also. for what I would have sold the sut motor and drive for not much, I'd be in it for 30gs more than what I have. can't wait to see yah on the water Bill:coolcowboy: later.

growing pains,absolutely not,made a call to richie and boat went from 88mph to 92mph from the bravo swap.
and be a man,9 surguries in 6 yrs,childs play,9 in 3 yrs w/ 2 more for each ankle and 1-2 for the knee.not to mention the right hand.but everythings on hold.
stop your whining,stop the pills ,stop the should haves and get your dolphin dialed in.we need a good laugh.

thats because your to junked up on pills to type your password in right or can't remember your own log in screen name.
i love watching you sign in,makes me think not taking pain pills is a good thing.

Pulling away
 

How right you are I lost 1distributor and was running on one motor, but was he still able to pull me there?

If you want to see TKO race that race you can watch it here. Their race starts at the 17min mark.

Thanks, that was some good wave banging action.

Sutphens rule in the rough & always did & always will.

Was lucky enough to watch this boat perform at Orange Beach. I was extremely impressed. Just crushed those 8-10 waves and passed the competition like they were standing still. Made me an instant fan.

How long is TKO?

It's a 39/40ft and is a one of a kind. The boat just flat out runs!!
