1/12 Scale Nitro Powered Miss Budweiser
Im planning on buying a used Miss Budweiser Nitro Powered boat and i was wondering if it can be modified to go up to 60mph and if better turn fins can be added to turn sharper?

We did have one member claiming 60 MPH speeds out of a LLumar (same boat): http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_4279069/tm.htm but I won't go any further into that one, still biting my tongue.

I would recommend forgetting about that kind of speed with the Pro Boat hulls. As Ron noted in his post, one person claimed to get that, but the average boater won't. If you want that kind of speed, you would be better off getting a Miss Vegas and making some of the upgrades in the "Make it fast" thread. Conversly, you could also look at the Sport 40 class and 1/8th scale boats, as they are capable of hitting the kinds of speeds you are looking at IF SET UP PROPERLY
