    Thats not a bad video at all, its shows the bullet climbing on top of the water perfectly.
    need more vids like this on the net to show people where they need to be running at.

    what was the max speed when running during this video ?

    This can't compare to the two videos above but offers a view down the tunnel as well.

    thats some nice video's if surfacing for sure.
    shows a lot more than words can say, and can see how much work the surface props do.
    not to sure about the ugly bungee stuff though ha ha I like the look of the strap used by AZMIDLYF.
    I take it the straps are incase of hitting something and stopping the motor coming into the boat ? or is it something else.

    these boats truly are flying along in these vids,
    .

    ok now a daft question
    would an SRX be best to run with bullet riding on the top of the water like in the vids above ?
    I remember the fella I got it from said " that props likes to run real high " did he mean this high ?

    Mr. Demeanor has been doing videos better than these for years on his 13. FYI he just broke 100mph.

    Dont tell him, but I have a man crush on Mr. Demeanor hahaha!!! My home made tunnel I'm working on had a lot of inspiration from him.
    Hope to be making a video of my OWN like this, this coming summer.

    However, AZMIDLYF's video is amazing... water is flat as a pancake !!! Beautiful video.
    The one I posted was some pretty rough water !

    Who else has TRANSOM vids !? !? !?

    Around 3:33 , can't believe it has enough hold to keep speed up. Pretty much just paddling, wild.

    Ya, Ive been watching this video for years, never ceases to amaze me, that thing was dialed in. I wonder how long that gear case lasted?
