    300R

    Well I made the jump from a 250XS to the 300R. 5 hours in so far and love it. Lots of testing and set up things being tested so stay tuned. This thing makes my 2+2 fun!!

    Good luck with it Jay, stay safe. I know you and Geoff will get the set up figured out and have a couple of very fast Allies.

    There is no comparison to the fun factor between the 250 Opti and the 300R in my opinion. And the sound is awesome.

    Thanks Dean. Safety is always our first thought. We are getting them dialed in. I still have 5 more hours of break in to finish as well. That should be completed this weekend lol.

    Fastbass Marine Skunkworks boat #3 piloted by Jay was fun before, but now it is extremely fun. I was lucky enough to spend some time in it and WOW!!!! It is already a runner and will be putting up some record 2+2 numbers soon. In fact, I think it may have already.

    I did have to take some steps when I was out of sight to limit his fun, I can't have him out running me when we line up this winter. LOL

    One needs to be an Allison owner to truly understand the "Fun Factor"
    I still remember the feeling every time I hit the key on my old 2003/280

    It runs great. Holeshot is sub 3 second range with the 32 Promax. Even better with the 30 Promax. I ran 98.1 the video posted above with the 32. I have ran the 30 Promax to 96.4 rather quickly. Can't wait to get the break in over with. The weather did not allow for any testing this past weekend. Skunkworks project started and should reveal much better numbers soon. Definitely more on the table as far as MPH.

    You probably don't know or remember that Lockheed built a lot of very cool and fast stuff in their Skunkworks.

    Yep Dean. That is where the name was borrowed from. I may have some logo and other stuff in the works with that. Wink, wink!
