    Have you got your new motor sorted out and reliable? Got some seat time in the new cat? Sounds like you'll have a great time. About what percent of the time in a 60 mile run do you run under boost? Damn I gotta get a boat like that eventually.I'm thinking about that 224 Stoker with the HP500,fits in my garage,tows easy,maybe cheaper to insure since it's probably classified as a v-hull and if I remember right did 90+ mph in Hot Boat test.Kinda weird looking though,and not much brand recognition.Wonder what it would do with a whipple? Did you see the video at Havasu with the 160 mph Skater,too bad that DCB lost a motor,looked like he was coming up strong for a while. Shasta getiin' close,going June 18th-22nd. Later Rock-it-man.

    Hey 350 good to here from ya,im testing the new cat now ,first trip out ran 102 at 4600 but had to back out as I had a water pressure problem,second trip out ran 110.8 at 5300 but still too much water pressure have corrected now and am going out sat to see if I can run 125+ with the setup I have now will run 6% overdriven and 9 lbs boost this time. I run as fast as I can in poker runs at WOT where ever I can,last two portland poker runs I was first in class and first overall with the Nordic Rage but as you may know a boater from Tacoma has it he will be in the Portland Run also,Will have the cat diled in before the Portland run !!!!!! So not to worry !!!! ROCK-IT MAN

    Hey Larry, I was down at the local boat shop(Pacific Power Boats) and they seem to know you quite well wink They put together a Nordic 35' w/Vortech HP500's that is rumored to do 112mph or so. It will likely be at the poker run also. Lets see some pics. of your Eliminator (graphics/etc.) What are the specs. on your motor to reach 1400 h.p.? And what type of drive holds up to that? Was your old boat a 25'? That new cat. should do awesome in the 3' rollers around St. Helens! I'm gonna have to come down and look all this eye candy over!!
