It takes alot of talent to navigate a V Bottom >135, I have alot of respenct to the OL team this weeked.
Congrats to the success of the Outerlimits SV 43 at LOTO. I had a chance to watch this boat run on the course and what a showcase at the dock!. I am sure with a longer stretch it would pick up some addtional MPH.
When I had the 1075 package in our open canopy 42 fountain poker run, it was tested in Powerboat at 144-146. Then when we converted to a full canopy Pleasure-Race Boat ( stereo/AC and 4 seats), it would top `150+, but the best we could do in a mile at LOTO was 139.
Then in the fall of 2010, we changed the Merc Motors out to the new 1200, preparing for KW, the testing speeds were improved again. It was aquired, before KW, and has a new home in Trinidad, on the OS racing circuit
The 2011 LOTO was a wonderful event, and the performance of this OL-43 was outstanding. It will soon be time to start snowmobiling

Ididn't see anything about the shootout, just bull chit about mini SO, and partys, pr, no classes. yes for rc. anyone find it. like to know what the saber will be under next year
. since I can't finish it until all my trees are cut up from the biotch storm
, I'm the only azz in my town to loose 6 trees and not one hit the house or baja well theres a leaner that might be close. my 1st run will be another week off or after labor day cause of the storm
. congrats to OL and JC. MAYBE I SHOULD PUT A SAIL ON IT.

Wheres The Luv On Oso!!!!!!!!!
. hey sonic has made a nice boat for years with lots of room, fountains are a rougher ride with lil room in real sea's and both are production made boats like a lot of other boats , nuten wrong with dat. but. outerlimits and skater,mti, saber,sutphen and a few others are custom made boats with hull and decks glassed together a few made each year. good luck to RF on his new boats I have his driving tapes from the 1990s love them. ps I would check the SONIC threads before buying one now though, they have been screwing brother sp123 over a boat for a year all most. not sure if he got it. read the story its sad for what has happened to a OSO BROTHER. Art out cutting tree's up from the biotch storm

Sorry. They pull the class info when they pull the registration link off the site. It's posted around here somewhere. Not sure where. Maybe someone will paste it here.
