your such a dippy downer Mart, that thing is like an F1 RACE CAR!!!!! And you get 40min to a tank of fuel, puts my weedy's 15min max to shame. And at 50 mph its quicker than mine, his must be because of the SUPER RACING PETROL ENGINE??? Oh, oh hey, but its good for the ocean too!!! But whats the deal with 40 - 50 mph??? That is a massive difference in top speed claims, oh but thats weather dependant, never mind.......

''It has full Kenkio race pipe,fully bore 1.6 mm carb,twin raced carbon prop and a turbo that kicks in at 3,000 rpm i think i know wether it is race boat.''

Mart, are you sure that 1.6 isn't cm and not mm? I just know the guy wouldn't lie to you so it has to be an error in reading a tape measure, or a typo
