36 Daytona = 124 MPH Club
We decided to go for a test ride in this machine today just to see how well the new Dana Marine MT4000 monster trim tab popped this boat up on plane. I will say, the rumors are true. With final adjustments made on the drive toe-in, we ran this boat at 124 mph with stock Ilmor 625 Viper engines. We were bumping the rev limiter at 6000 RPM's with 36 four blades. As we were leaving, Mr. Throttle Happy Bob Leach was installing a new set of 36.5" props looking for more MPH! To the guys at Ilmor, those engines are truly unlike anything I've ever heard. They sound absolutely wicked at 6K RPM. To Bob @ Eliminator, Thank you for your time, we had a blast getting into the 120+ MPH club, your generosity is very much appreciated.
