Rage is still testing. We should run it for the first time this week. They ran mid 70's in 3-4 footers and 85 on the river, without pushing it. Should hit the 90 MPH we were hoping for easily. Rage is surprised at the performance, which is a GREAT thing!

The 17 on the Kryptonite was because Stylin was C-17
The 41 on the Cobra is because we knew it would be 441, and with all my dad's Ft. lauderdale roots and connections, it reminded us of an old joke....Guy gets pulled over going 85mph on State Road 84 in Lauderdale....cop ask's if he knows what the speed limit is...driver says "eddy fou"...cop says good thing I stopped you before you hit highway "fou foudy one"
That's it. Nothing too great, just old florida wise cracks...and I think aesthetically it looks good on the boat.

I tried that long before they built 595.....and S.R. 84 was the east-west artery......
Cop laughed......but then I tried to argue the logic in my belief of the posted limit....
He had a stronger position.....I lost.....but the ticket was only about 75 bux...but today would prolly be about 600!
