    Roger, did you experience any chime walking during the video? If so, what was your corrective action at those speeds?

    yep, a little. Bump down on trim just a ooch and work wheel..................balancing on top of a pyramid isn't easy, but very doable.....................Really not that hard to control to me. Best thing is down on trim and keep it from happening with steering wheel actions Sir.....................RR

    I really like the Bravo. I changed the plugs to match yours. Hole shot improved and got 71.8 to 72.0 with it on Lake Fork last weekend. Air temp was in the low 50's. Don't think I can turn a 26 fury. Maybe with some tweaking from Mark.

    That's right. And if I would have been there today I could have driven yours to 78 mph easy.

    That will just get him to eke a little more out of it. Seriously decent Ranger. I hope to me you some day and show me how to drive one of them.

    I would have given anything if you'd been there with me today Sir. You could've waded the mud to launch me and strap the boat back down.................LOL. You are probably the only one that I know that can get more out of a hull than me Pete.................you Sir are a boat Captain...................RR

    Roger, Come on man cant be true I though all Rangers are slow!! I read it on the internet!!!! BBC other manufacture threads has to be true?????? and I am surprised the video doesn't show you soaking wet as they are a very wet ride as well compared to others so they say!!!!!!!!!! All seriousness Very nice set up you got it dialed for sure. I am running 71.3 loaded Atlas, 24 fury, 4 PM1's, full wells and gear with my 521c very happy with that.and for the others.

    Can be done with the hat on windshield works good at pushing that wind up but don't lift your head past that breaking point or by, by hat.
