    Apparition or miss Geico

    Looking for a opinion here. What do you think is a faster boat. A apparition or a miss geico running all the same equipment. The equipment is. 4074 1400kv leopard, seaking 180, 6s m442 prop. My buddy has the apparition and i soon will have the geico. Im just waiting on the boat. I have all the equipment to go in it. I think the geico will be faster, but he thinks his will be. I also think it will come down to driving skills when we race. It should be fun. We tested his and he hit 62 and had to back off due to no room and it was getting a little loose.

    Oval? Straight line? Same props and cells?

      Boyd set this years SAW record with a twin powered App. It was an App hull he bought from FC and built it. I don't think the Geico can handle the speeds that the App can, but then again the App cant handle turn at speeds that the Geico can.

        The app or China cat is easy to set up and no bouncing. Great running boat. You can see mine on u-tube at jwohlt5362. 8xl, 4s and I think a 442 prop...first run and she ran great.

            I love my Geico. I am a cat guy and have over 10 gas and FE cats and still say the the geico is one of the best cats for oval! I do not hav a App. so I cannot talk about them. If you are looking a saw, then it looks like the app is the way to go. However, if you want to race I would go with the geico.
            Miss Geico CC1515 2200kv T180 2S2S- Twin Genesis with 2 2700kv 2 T180's 4S2P- Stiletto with 2030kv T120 4S1P-DF33 4082 1600kv T180 6S2P- and lots of gassers!

              I had a twin Apparation cat from Fightercat Racing set up for SAW style. It ran on 4s per motor and ran 81.2 on gps. Awesome straight line hull and sucked in the turns, but it wasnt built to turn fast. In a sanctioning racing body, I was told it was classified as an 8s boat because I ran two 4s packs. Nevertheless, the boat really hauled(on 4s).
