Need for speed..

Ray,

Great idea !!

I'm game for that ! I've never been out on Shawano Lake when the water has been frozen ! I know of a few others who would chop on that too ! I'm currently waiting to get a fuel ecu back from Simon Motorsports so it can happen any time after that !!!
 
i was told and ive always thought. that five bladed props.. aka highfive . is good for out of the hole.. and pulling but not very good for top end. where a 3 bladed chopper is better for top end?
 
That's a very good rule of thumb. Usually the more blade surface in the water the more efficient(hole shot) the prop will be. The positive of additional blade surface tends to become a negative at high speed.
