hey lake racer. the boat we got from you went to texas. last time i talked to the guy he claimed the ole chryzzle woke up and obviously picked up a cylinder. cant remember how fast he said he waas going but i think he had moved up 2 prop sizes. im sure by now its got a new clampon shoving herf around. when i drove the boat it drove quite nice and was obviously way lighter than the exact rabco that i had
the cheetah i picked up on a trade deal and feel i did well considering all the probs the big barge i traded off had going on.
my plans iclude , interior upgrades, larger bowl with jet-o-vator or place diverter, rideplate,over transom dry headers,dual quads,hei,fuel tanks,nitros,stainless impeller,inducer ,loader,shoe,.........................
did i mention it has the old school cavitation reducer from dons pump service alreay in there and the pump seems tight.
its not the fastest thing i ever had but man is holeshot insane. this ole pig makes **** load of noise and the bow stands up. before it can slap down you have to adjust steering cuase the big block is rolling this thing over to the left a little bit and we are accelerating quite agressively till about top speed of 50. possible went a little over 50 while not holding gps. it aired out more that day into the wind and at times felt a little sguirley. ok quite squirley . had to really keep it ballanced and pointed.
unsure of rpms due to broken tack but didnt let it screem to much. carves nice turns and is real fun to drive.gets decent milage when you just cruise about 35
