Drag boat racing prep!

Your gonna be big man I can see it. So far I love you content I have nothing to complain about

Try offset 6” with out measurements?Roll out of the hole flatter. Won’t have to tuck the motor so much.

[@Resistculturaldecline]

If you don't have a 24v trim system, I highly recommend. It's going to take a deep trim tuck to launch out flat, but then a real quick trim to keep it from immediately going into a porpoise. Trim planes on the hull can help, but it should be doable without. A cavitation planer, right prop, weight placement, engine height, setback, can all be sweet-spotted to make it work

Yupp wired it up 24 volt!

[@SmalltownBassin]

stick a button under the hotfoot that activates a timing relay for trim. Figure out how long you want the delay, set the relay and you'll have a consistent hands free automatic trim for racing. Not my idea but can be done for less than a benji.

[@weekendsonthewater]

@SmalltownBassin they make trim timers that all the bigger classes run but my class isnt aloud to run them. they make a huge difference! super consistent

Dude you need to lift your motor a bit a hydronic stern plate is the way to go .so she won't flop.

Aren’t you moving at a couple mph when you stage, I chopped throttle boat flattened then hit it at the light and the boat launched flatter. This was in a 14 Allison with a heavily modded 75 stinger, Monty moter

[@weekendsonthewater]

Supposed to come in at 7mph
