i have known shawn since 1988 when i got into racing jetski's.
we all know what she is about.
shawn is and always will be the best at what she does for the sport of jetsking, and in her personal life.
for someone with the tools and passion to help others in jetsking, and then to get banned...
you must be asking about the 2 jetpro built fuel injected 92 550 mod's that the sweden rider's had in 92.
1 of the 550 mod's was 55.6 mph, and the other 550 mod was radared 57.1 mph.
