3d

Class 3D is hopefully coming back with a new and upgrades regulation. Sweden has sent a proposition to UIM to be voted on by the UIM GA this winter. 2 Swedish boats are already in the works and I know a few more are thinking of building boats. 26-30 foot cats with twin Merc 200xs would make a blast!

Thank you - maybe one of the most friendly comments on this Forum. Due to having to get History, Grammar and lack of beneficial help I may be better sticking to club forums - Thanks for the opportunity

x-cats

if they could get the x-cats to drop efi's and run 200xs instead (same rules) they could race all over europe aswell as the middle east (they would still run 100mph plus)

Initial testing has proved very unsuccessful with the Opti's

I seem to remember they were very slow and unreliable but probably a lot down to setup. They would have to look at Power to Weight and find an engine in plentiful supply.

I think you will find this is a friendly (usually ! ) interesting and very informative forum .
By the way John Clarke used Lambo not Chevy engines
