Thanks, So a blaster can run 800cc but I can only run 633cc. That doesnt seam fair. That means I would have to build a new ski.

I don't believe you have much of a chance racing an x-2 against blasters. Back in 1992 and 93 I was racing x-2s. The blaster came out in 93 and totally dominated the new sport class. By the middle of the season I'd given up racing in that class pulled the 650 motor out of my x-2 and put it in a 550 hull just for fun.

Thats not quite true, Dan Hansen won region 3 this year on his insane 800 powered X2, but it is modified to the max. And yes that is a hump hiding a speedwerx pipe. It sits that low in the nose from all the lead weight in the hull, he claims its the only way to keep it down over 60mph.

See if I can fit in a class that I can run my Tubbies and my 800. Let me know when you set the buoy's up. I am already building a SJ and finishing my X-2 so to take on a Blaster whould break me.
