Its a 2000 951cc carb 2stroke. Barely had 40 hours on it before I drove off with it. Needless to say after two years of just sitting, it runs like it just came out of the box. I already have plans when the summer is over. With a full tank of gas and myself, I can hit 65mph on smooth water. This ski beats the new 2011 RXT-R off the line but catches me soon after but after I get my Riva goodies on this winter, Im looking at 70+ mph. Im lowering the trailer this week cause my Nissan frontier's bed is damn near in the water with the low lake levels. Next year she will be a whole new beast.

In the Second pic is the new 2011 RXT models both supercharged and non supercharged oh and you cant forget the Scarab with the 496ci in it. And sorry about the delay, I found myself at Joe Poole Lake all weekend. Not to mention the 370 is going back in my T/A this week.
