Rewind to a couple years ago. OL made a kilo pass, and set a new V-Hull speed record ( according to GPS ). Everyone was dancing in the streets.

Shortly thereafter, Fountain made a kilo pass, and blew the OL "record" completely outta the water. . . . things got a little quiet for a while. . . . and the Big Cats slept soundly.

Fast forward to 2006. Fountain brings a new hull, places the big cats squarely in the crosshairs, and blows Speed Racer away. . . . everyone returns to the streets, but this time with torches and pitchforks. . . .

Now, clearly continuing his assault on the cats, Fountain's V-HULL "Rio Roses" targets the SUPERCAT Bud Select. However, Bud Select IS first to the turn. . . . once again, everyone is dancing in the streets. . . .

That is what you call "Raising the Bar" . . . . defined by Fountain Powerboats. . . .

Reggie has ALWAYS backed up EVERYTHING he has said. I remember the article in Powerboat when OL said that their GPS run had shut Reggie up. Then Reggie blew that GPS, middle of the ocean stuff into the weeds, and OL snuck out of North Carolina with "blown engines"

Lets just wait till Aug 4 and see what happens

He knows Cig and OL are gunning for him and he's sitting back and waiting to pull it out. It's gonna be interesting over the next year or so. We'll see. I just hope no one gets hurt.

As far as the video goes, I have no idea. SR says it was edited. Fountain doesn't say anything, so WTF knows.
