Such a sick garage, Mark! Congrats again on the CGT purchase! How do you like it compared to the Scud?

I don't know a ton about the build. It's 1 of 4 made by a guy out of southern cal that quit doing it. The engine turns 160hp and the car weights in about 1800lbs loaded with 2 people. Very quick. Gears run out at about 105mph. It's so much fun to drive but so small it better be a hot and sunny day.

Right is our house left is the pool/guest house with the garage

Is that Lake Washington or Sammamish? I have family on Sammamish . . .

Actually it's the southern part of Puget Sound. Salt water is the only water that gets smooth enough to waterski imho....Lakes don't flatten like this

I've only a few hours in the CGT and can't be fair. Never above 140mph and that was 2 years ago. The CGT is more civilized than I remember. Extremely smooth and I can't wait to test it's stability.
It is a different car than the Scud and will be hard for me to judge better or worse. I love the Scud.

Northern Wisconsin lakes aren't bad for water skiing either.
