    Worx vs Jim's ride plate for 2016 VXR

    Trying to figure out which one to go with, the new worx plate looks longer than the factory plate, looks like it would help in the chop dig in and stop cavitation. Worried i will lose top speed with it though. Anyone have it yet?? Or should i just send my plate to Jim?

    The new worx plate is great.i have it fitted to my gp1800 (same hull). excellent in the Chop and gets on plane fast from a hole shot. Back to back tested against the stock plate and GPS speed was exactly the same. I have a jims plate on order so can't comment on that yet.

    Food for thought, Riva plate should be available next month and I'll bet R&D is working on one too. I'm gonna sit back and wait for a winner to emerge before I buy one

    WORX plate will be hard to beat for a rough water rider. Awesome hookup and awesome hole shot. It was 3 mph slower than my Jim's modified stock ride plate on flat water on my GP1800 (same hull as your 2016 VXR)
