RJAINLA, you know how to make friends real fast, especially with 11 posts. We don't like being called liars, the article and speeds in Extreme Boat mag was true, and you guys (meaning the other cats) have had numerous opportunities out there on the lake to prove themselves, but thats hard I guess when your motors don't stay together after every run. The Shadow cat (HOT Pursuit) did 117 at False River, if that was the case I would have brought the Fountain.
I'll tell you what, Money talks and B.S. walks, and I've got 5k that says Cyclone smokes ya, so what do you say. Don't talk big behind that screen, open your wallet up, instead of your mouth, give me a call after 7AM tomorrow, so I can set it up, 1-228-216-0900. Jeff Jassby

JASSMAN,
First off, let me set the record straight here. I do not believe that in any part of my post, the word LIAR was used,nor were you JASSMAN or TMP accused as saying anything false. Also,this was never an issue of anyone smoking Cyclone.In my post,No one here claimed to be faster.I stated that it is hard to ever get on the side of him to see how fast it is.ofcoarse he would be faster. If you read back in my post. My point was.... there are quite a few cats in our area.We were just shocked to see only two cats enter the Radar Run. Cyclone is somewhat of a local cat.It would of been nice to see it run 164 there.
Your comment about someones motors not staying together.Who are you referring to? You lost me on that one. Sorry if anyone was offended here.I did not post on here to make enemies.

RJAINLA I was one of the Hustlers running with Jeff and we where cruising at 70mph all the way across causeway to Mariner's Village.Any faster my crew complained about the wind messing with there beer drinking.I don't remember seeing anybody blow by us. Yall must of been in front us? I could not tell but one boat that was in front of us looked like a diesel it was so rich
![EEK!](/forums/images/smilies/eek.gif)
The other 388 Hustler is a triple 525 sc boat and I would figure it would be up close to those speeds.
After Mariner's Village I lost a prop blade so it was a slow ride back to the Prop Stop for the wet T shirt contest

I'm starting to wonder if the pic of the GPS was taken by Copeland in one of his Skaters at 3/4 throttle.
At the False River Radar Run there were only two of us there. "Hang Em Out To Dry"-36 Spectre and "Hot Pursuit"-30 Shadow Cat. We had plenty of room for more entries in the cat class, but when you enter these events, there is one thing that is inevitable........ the truth about the speed of your boat is revealed........... There are quite a few cats in our area. We were just shocked to see only two enter this event.

Rob,
That was us. We had a metal shaving get stuck in one of the needle and seats. We cleaned it out at Mariner's village, and ran the rest of the day. Best speed Saturday was just over 100 w/ 13 people in the boat. Probably not the best idea, but you know how it goes. The next TMP boat will be EFI as well.
This boat is for sale, as a #6 boat with quad rotors is in our future. That way we can stop taking **** from all the cat guys. Anyone interested can give us a call.
By the way, I've got a nice set of whipples sitting at the shop with your name on them.

The new style?? That would probably make My Hustler go just over the 100 mark
I figure y'all might go with a cat ,Its just hard to compare a cat to a v bottom in efficiency with the speed difference . I would not mine having a cat but the girls like the amenities and bed space. They don't like going down below when its hot or cant flush a toilet.
Steve yall going to Emerald Coast poker run in August??
