Gladiator with #5 SSMs

[Tank]

That would be a fun boat to run around in!:cheers2:

I liked it all white...........Don't the trannies screw up the CG?? The glads were not built to have trannies.

I agree, keep it simple, i like the white as well. Not sure about using the extension boxes

You mean except Phil's?? even though the 700SCI's really don't have much of a tranny...

Phil's was also built new with the bigger drives. They could be balanced to the boat correctly, if there was any need to adjust the cg for them in the first place.

The #5's were added later on to Unleashed if I recall.

This is the what I am trying to determine. Since they added the #5s afterwords, how were the boat's speed and handling characteristics changed?

Faster? Better Handling? Slower but obviously more reliable? I am guessing not faster and not necessarily better handling, just able to take the abuse.

Anyone know for sure?
