I EVEN LOOKED BACK through BEFORE I ASKED!!! Well we run the same props and my boat has more hp so that's why I don't think its a prop issue but a drive height or something else. Hopefully these other guys who know more then me can help.

Something ain't right. RPM vs speed would be nice to know.

Std length XR's

I do have hydromotive nose cones on them....I didnt notice
any gains by putting them on....I just fugured that I was over the point that they become benificial so I glued a set on.

GSC was telling him he needed nose cones. I never mentioned them to him as I felt he was not running fast enough yet to justify them.

He doesnt need them.

Hydromotive told me 85 mph is the # where they
start to do some good.

I know that I ran it on a couple occasions at 88 mph
before I put them on.

That was always my understanding too. You had to be pushing 90 MPH before the standard bullet pushed too much water away from the props.
