We use to have a 1996 Bombardier XP. Thing was crazy. sub 400lb fully fueled, 800cc 2 cylinder (inline) 2 stroke pumping out 110hp. The thing went from idle speed (3mph) to 60 in about 3 seconds on flat water. I remember when i was younger (and the thing was new) I use to get sore from holding on when my dad was piloting because of the accelerational forces. In the 10 years we had it (96-06) and all those years out on the lake, never have we lost a race with it.

It's too bad though, with the crack down on emmissions, the era of lightweight 2 strokes is over.
