Hello everybody. I've been a member for a few months now, but this is my first post. I am picking up my new rig on Friday and am very excited. I've been running a long tail for many years but I am switching over to a 1748cc X series with a 36 prodrive. What kind of performance numbers should I expect?

Welcome and not as fast as a GTR

Oh and congrats on your new rig.

I drive a stock 36 PD on a PD 17x54 hull and with around 100 lbs of chit, 10 gallons of gas and me (195) I get 29.8 on the gps in about a foot of water. I've had the same load plus 4 more people and still got on plane, took a little longer but I was satiisfied. I didnt have my gps that day to see top end.

i would think you'd get about the same on a light load but not sure on a heavy with a 48 hull. Maybe someone else will chime in on that.

And for the record, I haven't gps'd it in reverse I might now for the hell of it.

I know how fast they go in pure mud in reverse!! 0.0 mph!! Lol

Thanks for your input guys. Can't wait til Friday
