LOL.

On a more serious note, despite all the ball busting you've endured in this thread no one wants to see you or any innocent bystanders hurt. If you make this run, please be wearing a full face helmet, Lifeline jacket, and have a lanyard connect to you and a kill switch. I don't care what boat you are in or how stable it is, anything can happen at speed that can result in a loss of control or ejection. Safety first. Good luck.

Sorry, missed it. Worth reiterating though. I saw firsthand what a boat flipping over at 90 MPH + looks like when that HTM went over at the Shootout a few years back. Happened right in front of us. No fun.

George brought his x-18 to one of the Donzi events in Cumberland and it is cool watching that thing run! he would (I don't know if he still has to or not) paddle it away from the dock and point it in the right direction before firing it up.

Chris Allard has it now right?

but there are at least 10 credible people on this thread that have seen the baot run, and looked at the GPS after a run.....


100.01 MPH - there is no try.

Found a video of the boat doing 85mph in a pretty tight race, behind a van....

Enjoy

ha....you cannot argue with the donzi. its a known quantity for a long time. you have yet to provide anything that anybody knows about. break 100 on sunday and you win. your boat goes 104, as you indicated, so it shouldnt be a problem for you to do it again.
