I have a xb2002 now,its a lot faster boat ,its amazing the difference in the boats..The shadow can have a good top end number if very lite but the ride sux

I don't know what's actually available spec-wise at the moment. Maybe rudeshadow or rgsauger will weigh in soon with more info. I myself would like to see more details on the new boats.

Also I asked about that worlds fastest bassboat deal as well.I was told that yes indeed Shawdow set the record in one class with the 18 ft v hull boat .Allison did not have a boat in that class.Allison came back the next year with a boat for that class and beat that record by like 11 mph.

I rode in Laser tunnel that had the "For Racing Purposes Only" on the HP plate. Stood straight up on takeoff. 105 on speedo.

guy wanted. 8k for it, but the boat was just not practical, it was a bass boat but only by outside appearances

Yea the guy with the yellow Bullet is a friend. He's a pro fisherman who runs out on our lakes for no pressure enjoyment fishing. He said he didn't doo too well today. He saw you though for when I asked him if he'd saw a guy with an Allison he sain I missed ya by about 30 minutes or so. I may go out Tuesday if I get my trolling motor mount tomorrow. Fixed motor fuel problem by correcting bonehead mistake I made. When I replaced my fuel hoses I must have bumped the small orange lever on my primer solonoid closed causing it to run lean. Opened that up now she fires right off and puuurrrrssssss!! Sorry I missed Sleepy Hollow too. Love their BBQ. Like you said, We'll catch up with each other eventually. Oh and, don't forget your fishing gear next time!, lol! Don't worry if ya do I've got plenty.

It had carpet. Console rattling like it was about to come off. It was fast for sure, cheeks flappin at 5000 so the 100 onspeedo was real when it got to top.

Stick with Bullet

Bullets are fast boats I know. I've a friend who has a yellow one with a 250 srx and he does high 70's low 80's with two guys and a tournament load.

I would have liked to see that laser run though.
