You would not happen to have room for an extra passenger from Miami to Key West?

Beautiful toys. I thought my Grady White 300 Marlin got bad gas milage (20 gallons per hour at crusing speed). Your boat puts a new meaning to the term "fuel consumption". Can only imagine the thrill you must experience driving her. Thats an extremely dangerous hobby though....please stay safe!

Wow!!!! Great thread .

1) The two silver cars together look amazing. It must have been a fun drive.

2) Never been to Vermont .. but always wanted to see it . When I saw the boat instead of ski gear I was surprised.

3) Sanibel is a great . I've seen these raceboats in Miami -- yikes !! fast!!!
I have this feeling that the Turbo won't remain stock for long.

4) Outside of the snow factor of winter are there nice roads to drive a Porsche there ?

Love the pics of your MTI. I have a friend w a 46 Skater Canopied, w Teague power.

We tell him he's warming the globe 16 cylinders at a time

Are you running race fuel at 1100 hp?

My usual Enviromental answer to some enlighten enviro that critic these things from their high moral perch is usually;
- Wasting resources? What do you mean, I'm actually expediting a solution...


For fuel we only run 5# of boost so we can run 93octane. Certain times on radar challenges and speed run trial when we up the blower pulleys we'll run up to 116 but that gets phenomenally expensive..
