TOPIC: 1988 Advantage banshee.

Just picked this one up over the weekend for my 2.4L ovalport.

Nice combo! Is that an eliminator Daytona, or one of those Obsession boats that was made in Shawano years ago that seemed to be like the Eliminator brand? Looks wicked! Nice grab. They made a mini boat version of that about 12-13 feet long. Have fun with it... hopefully more pictures next summer!

Dr Go, it is a splash of the california eliminator scorpion. I do however have a spinnoff of the Shawano Eliminator scorpion, a rapid craft riot, and boy is she a blast!!!!! Here's my riot with the 2.0 sst120 racing powerhead on a 20 inch mid and cle lower. She FLIES!!!!

Top picture is Sam Ron Baker's Eliminator scorpion that his dad ron used to tool the plug for the rapid craft riot, rapid craft riot plug in the bottom picture.

And here's a video out on the riot this summer.

Pretty cool stuff. I remember the Rapid Crafts. I used to get Hot boat magazine back in those days. I started reading my Dad’s powerboat magazines back in the late 60’s. Those hot rod Dad’s running the calm river back in those days got us kids all hooked on tinkering and swapping motors. Your boats look like they are doing 100 just sitting on the trailer. I am still trying to figure how to watch that video... I am sure it’s just me not doing something right. Have fun... looks like you already are!
