I Havent Ridden In A Daytona, But Heard They Need Tabs To Keep From Porpoising. We Didnt Need Them In The Motion Or The Skater. Dont Think The Eliminator Runs As Fast As Either Also
I Wouldnt Buy A Cat With A Center Pod Myself

I have a 377 Talon with the center pod, it is absolutely the way to go on a big lake. It can handle some pretty big chop and dosen't have all of the bucking and porpoising problems of cats w/o the center pod.

Like most have said, the center pod boat will ride much better below 100 or so than a true cat. They are great for rivers and lakes which do not get over 3ft seas. As for speed, hp for hp, size to size, you might be suprised at how fast a center pod boat will run. The Revolution bottom is basically a Talon, as for most west coast boats with a center pod. Tnd there are some very fast Talons around. My Advantage is one of the exceptions.It's hull is very different. If I were to run in the ocean or great lakes mostly, I would go with a true cat. Otherwise I'd stick with the center pod boat, It simply gives a better ride.
