I bought a 2003 GTX three years ago and from the first day I had it, if you hit the accelerator hard to get out of the hole, it seems to be hesitating until it gets up to about 30 MPH. I thought this was normal, that it was some sort of engine protection until a rode another one this weekend and it came out of the hole all the way to top speed with smooth acceleration. Once I am above 30 MPH there is no issue, it flies. As soon as you make some sharp turns and the speed drops, I have to let up on the accelerator to allow the ski to come up to speed slowly. Any ideas on what could cause this? I have had it since it had 30 hrs on it, I now have 65 hours on it and it has always been the same, not better, not worse.
