A boattail does wonders for your 60 to 80+ mph times on the interstate, the equivalent of a horsepower boost to your engine effective at higher speeds.

No pull overs yet. (fingers crossed)

Yes. On the way up I tried to copy my previous trip. However, on the return trip, I increased my average speed approx. 5mph + and the result was nearly the same. I'm looking forward to keeping pace with traffic. 
Oh and for the record...
S.C. boys now how to...
"Get R Done"...!!!
