I think Matt has determined the E7's top end is in the 120mph range until he comes out with a speed canopy. :)

 I agree with all of you. Already done a 14s E7 it is faster now with the 716's on it but needs a streamlined wrap around canopy. 756 blades would be good too. But we'll see what the boss comes up with..
