    Sorry, not believing the gains in speed.
    Sometimes you may drop a mph or two.

    I gained 1 mph by removing the trolling batteries in my Bullet.... I believe if you remove that much weight from the bow, You could see those gains, Not the stern.

    While my ultrex was in shop I put my fortrex back on and picked up almost 3 mph. Still love the ultrex though.

    When I went lithium the hole shot got better , I did get 2-3 on top but it was more due to moving weight from up front to the rear , the ionics are much smaller so the battery compartment has my tool bag and a few heavier things in there now. All the heavy planos went in the cranking battery compartment, Bullet sells a nice plano holder that fit in there , I believe it is the holder that come in front of the drivers console in the X hull.

    thats kinda surprising. We gained 5mph by removing the trolling motor on my buddy’s 21XDC

    my 20xd gained 1mph. Was basically no difference

    I may be running the oldest lithium battery out there. I got it in 2012, November and loved it. To me I see no increace
    it speed but you just get there quicker. With that being said you boat has got to be reset up for the different weight placement.
    The 4 ft level comes back into play, level the boat and it drives better and runs faster.
