70.5 wow, I'd like to know how the gassers do against yours, just remember to when you lap them. Very nice job on the build and on how it runs

You goin' 2028 10s also? Dont know what the gassers do...............probably pretty fast with the modded Zenoahs.

A good running gas mono is in the mid to high 60's

[PapaGriz]

Wow! That is amazing. I've been watching your build thread, congrats on a great build.
I love the sound of it too.

LOL Just be careful.
It can easy to get in trouble racing big monos. When you have as many as eight in a heat, big holes form that you can fall into.

Good luck and have fun!!

[HOTWATER]

Very nice!!

[KCboater]

Nice job......you really have it dailed in!!!!!!

also depends on elevation..
up here in Colorado the speeds are slower and Carl's mono would whoop em!

Thanks PapaGriz, Doug, Hotwater, KC..............oh, and Todd!

"easy to get in trouble racing big monos. When you have as many as eight in a heat, big holes form that you can fall into"

When my buddies and i race our identically equipped pursuits.......4074's on 4s........it can get pretty hairy just with those 32 inchers at 45 mph and some churned up water.................cant imagine the bign's at much higher speeds.................hmmmm dont want to thrash my new boat. Also, i wonder what they will weigh in at...........a decent sized boat with a Zenoah and a small tank of gas cant come in close to my 18 pounder.........can it? If they are a fair bit lighter i think i would have the advantage of settling down more and bashing thru wakes as opposed to launching off of them............? I may have to just run a bit larger course around them at higher speed!!!

Anyone know if there is a burst rating on a Swordfish 240HV? I have an Octura x460/3 that i want to try as a step up from the 457/3 just in a SAW run to see what i can hit speedwise...................not gonna run it normally, just a few passes to see what she'll do. I think i may hit 75-77 with it..............

The SF240hv doesnt give a burst anywhere that i can see.

[ron1950]

is that how much amperage will make it burst or what lol

[Brushless55]

any more runs with this bad boy?
