    Question Numbers on my G2 powered Z520C

    Well after a few hours of break in which you don't have to do she ran 76 mph Thursday with my Croxton 26 Raker HO, am going to try my fast 26 Fury on it tomorrow and see what she will do. I truly believe I can get 77 with that Fury, it's one bad prop. I was by my self with full tank of fuel and my fishing junk. The hole shot was still about two seconds and running the best speed at 2 3/4 below the pad.

    No sir it didn't, I could let it chime walk if I wanted to, walking has never been anything that bothered me and not bragging by no means.

    From what I'm hearing and seeing, these G2s are really performing.

    This cant be true.......All I hear is that Rangers cant go over 55 mph and G2's cant run on gas that's not straight from the refinery...........
    I'd agree with you , but then we would both be wrong

    Yes sir I did after I sent it to Mark, now keep in mind the water temp was about 80 when I ran the Croxton Fury, it ran 74.5 with the same amount of weight. Over all I liked the Raker HO for my personal use. I also tried a Fury 4 out of the box and it was hitting on 73. BRP has the Raker dialed in real good with the G2, after Croxton work. I have a 18 G2 coming for my L boat.

    OK Rodney.

    You have all 3 major options and we all know our cousins, ex wifes, best friend, knows someone from prison that had an evinrude that failed on them... Why are you choosing to rig one on yours? I know why I made my choice but I'm curious about your reasoning?

    Awesome...Really good numbers...I've had a few G2s myself and to this point the Raker HO seems to be the prop for that motor...

    I made the trip to Wisconsin four years ago when BRP reveled the new G2 before any one knew a thing about them. At that time I ran one and from then until now I have had one on my boat ever sense. I just love the torque and get up and go of the G2 not to mention the best gas and oil mileage by a long shot over any one else. Nothing at all wrong with the other two brands out there but the old days of drag racing on the water is still there for me, just love that torque both low end and mid range, not to mention how much that torque helps out in those five foot rollers on Ky Lake when the conditions are right. Add 30 mph north winds+ 100,000 cubic feet per second out the dam = five footers.
