got walked today...

[VaRedneck]

Saw a 2013 GTX 260 today...went by the mrs and some other slower traffic. I pulled up on his 5...maybe 2 boat lengths back and hit it....1'+ chop w/ occasional cross wakes...

I couldn't catch him...as soon as the water'd calm a bit I'd start to gain...then I'd leave the water and he'd start walkin away.

New ski to him...he thought it was a 2010....figured on calmer water he might hit 70...told him the guys here would be able to help cross that threshold w/o too much trouble...heh.

Got me wonderin though....if I do eventually up boost and fuel...will it matter if I'm outa the water when doin 70+ in chop and a stock s3 hull can walk away from me?

[Kosh]

I have had that problem too, those S3 hulls are hard to catch when your out of the water pushing air!

[greenbullet]

Simple fix..... More BooST! Lol

[JFizzleJR]

No, it won't really matter. Best bet is to set your ski up for rough water if you want to beat him. R&D grate or other, OPAS block-offs, Lucky 13 Pump Cone. Things like that to start...

On my Honda if a Ski beat me in chop that I knew I could otherwise beat if I stayed hooked up, I would ride up to them, and ask them to follow me to a cove. With mt PX the Chop is sometimes my friend, but I still don't like racing in chop as I know it's hard on the S/C.

old rxps near 80 mph will not stay in the water even on the smallest chop
even will all the extra mods still wont stay in the water like a old rxt

I'm running a Riva pump with the L-13 cone, & my old RXT hooks up so so well now, I can pull away from the RXT 260's in the chop .
Huge improvement.

What the hull!? I can't stay in the water for crap past 75 in anything past 1.5ft. Guess it's the pump.
