          Not much better on top speed today. 58.5. I did pick up a LOT of punch out of the hole though. First rip and i flipped it right over on her lid! Wasn't expecting that! I dig the hard acceleration, just gotta be a little more careful now!

                        Well, I went with a x455 today. Woohoo! She's rock solid at 63.6 mph!! this cat rips wot hairpin turns! By far THE best handling cat I've ever seen! Still running 5s2p. Batts were a little warm, but other than that, temps were as usual. I wonder how much speed this hull is capable of.

                            That's very impressive. I am putting a new power setup in my sprintcat soon, motor and esc. are on the way, just need to get some cells. I'm going from a 4s to a 6s setup. I hope to get up to the 60 range also.

                            Is the x455 the best prop you've tried?

                              Yep, so far, the 455. I've only tried the octura's though. I may get a couple prather props. They have more pitch. So far, I've tried a x648, x450, x452 and the x455. I have a x457, but, not sure if it will be too much. Gonna try to talk the wife into filming this weekend. The lake are finally all thawed out, and I can really let her rip!
