2009 Stroker (Frankenstein)
Blaine I would love to see you at Kinkaid, my boat would do the talkin. I would bet with my 250 I would get to 80 before yours your boats proably faster but mines quick to 80. Cris my boat did 82 with a 3/4 of gas and full tournament load.

David, i asked the gear ratio, not because i dont believe you but because something is wrong with the info you gave. it could be that the prop is not a 26, you dont have 1.75 gears(this is highly unlikely) or your using a regular speedo and not a gps. it could be that you actually are going that fast but you arent giving the correct info. your showing 0% prop slip and thats just not possible. oh, there is no way that a stroker with a 225 will outrun that 3L 250 in 0-80. bet him big money and go home with a pocket full.....
I didn’t want to get in a spit match with anyone. I don’t think this guy would be on here, didn’t expect anyone to know him.
If he would meet me at Kinkaid I would 0-80 I’m not saying I would beat him top speed. He showed me his top speed on his speedo thing I just can’t see how he went that fast with a 225. Something seemed fishy with his boat. I think he turned the speedo on and dragged it to that speed haha
Most all of us Stroker guys know each other. Even though we might not all like each other we will take up for one another when the time comes. The 2.5 doesn’t have the low end torque of a 3L, you would mop the floor with him 0-80.
The problem with 0-80 is you have to get to 80. A Z9 weighs 2100 lbs. Look on the Nitro page, most claim 69-72 mph with a fishing load.

I looks like I might ofbit off more than I can chew. Why don't you post some pics of your set up David! What was fishy about my boat? Yeah, the speed I showed you on my recall was because I dragged her on a deserted road that quick.

I’d put up $150 if he does. If I lose I lose but I think I have a good chance since I have a 3liter 250. Like some of you guys have said, his 225 sounded like a cat passing by. He must have a special exhaust mod. What does strokers run with a 225 like his?
I got $100 on Blaine, I wish I was there to see this!

So you wanted to come on a board that you ave been on a short time and talk about a member being rude .Your boat will not run 82 with current pushing it,People on the boards know pretty much what a set-on most bass boats will run and yours will not run the #s your posting,sorry but it just will not.But with some type of divine intervention it does you better get it on video,if not No one will believe you.
