maybe one day the boys north of us w make a cat and that’s something i see americans buying in bunches in the 26-28 range and you w see similar differences speed wise after the 28 dw and the reamergance of the 28 that needs no reintroduction i see it on tuffs drawing board already there’s never been a real competitor in the middle of the 24 n 28 skater i see it now before the 300s dissapear on us

I hope to run into this boat or one of the other 400R 28s. Should be an interesting discussion afterwards- Really glad to see all of the new boats coming into the market (Making America even Greater Again). This 28 is a nice ride for sure and the with the extra fuel capacity Indian river is an incredible chain to run and explore.

Obviously not the case as they have tried in Superstock and Xcat didn't bother wasting their time with an X motor. Went from the 2.5 EFI right to the XS then 400ros. So tell me all the races the X won "everytime" as you say?

**wickedwitthestix** · 05-13-2018, 02:14 PM

balance is key reason number 2 y do most of the x cat stilll wanna run 280s? these are facts

You guys need to STFU, because wicked is dropping knowledge on you fools. He not only knows guys with the 24'+ cats, but he's also got to ride in them as well. You don't get that kind of experience just anywhere. My guess is if you let him rde in your boats, he could help your wring out somewhere between 2-50 mph gains.

On that note, wicked, how did you change your setup on your cat when you went from 2.5's to X motors?

Those Cats get some Big Air

How much does a bare hull 30 ft weigh?

**JPEROG** · 05-13-2018, 04:40 PM

I will run you from the hotel to the Glen and back with your 280 if you want (thats about the distance of a typical enduro race). I thought in your previous post that you were saying a 400R single was going to beat the X "this would be a first". I am very confident that the new DW28 with 300s will run with other mid size 400R cats though-time will tell.
