Thor vs twin engine scarab

I baited the guy on slowed down and waited on him and then let him trim his boat out and floor it. I laid down the hammer after he was maxed out and you will see. The boat is running great and I love it. We stopped afterwards and talked he was a nice guy said his boat rns 77 on gps.

I've heard the thor's run realy good, nice boat. any plans for more power? I love it when a v-hull pulls along side, there's not to many out there that can beat a well set-up cat.
