I agree with you for the most part except that there is no such thing as easily riding the wave in a turbine boat at nearly 200mph. It has taken a lot of work regardless of the financial support. You can't buy what those guys have done in that boat!

Nobody writes checks in this economy for average and let's keep in mind that Marc and Scotty have "run around in circles" nearly 100 times before having a mishap! You can call it what you want, but even Cosker flipped one and Arruda is dealing with issues early in the game! I stand firmly saying that not everyone can do what they've done and that said, we'll just have to agree to disagree! |

I'm just going to say that we have different perspectives on it. Yours is from the outside looking in and mine is from the inside looking out and ahead for the past six years.

We look forward to her racing again. TM will have her back in shape in no time. Remember, she has had one race we are crossing our 100th race over 150mph. With persistence she will have her day just as we did. It's not something that can be rushed as you will pay with your life. Any team can be beat with planning practice,determination and money. I would caution any team gunning for Miss Geico, if she (Miss G) is healthy she is a formidable opponent. Underestimate us at your peril. Turbine Class, Superboat Unlimited,Extreme... we are all running for Top Dog and right now it's inconsistent for various reasons (health,accidents,cost,luck) so don't make too many assumptions most of the owners didn't get where they are by giving up. As noted we are a professional race team and may of our competitors are part time. There is a difference in resources applied. That said , again, anyone can be beat. We view our job as servicing our sponsor, please the fans and be great ambassadors to our sport. Love us , Hate us...we'll keep doing what we do best. Miss G I would love to see you , and three others at this years worlds . Key West looks to be pulling in a large number of superboats this year . I hope JBS makes it as well .:drink: |

I would love to hear comments from the other veterans of mystic ( owner racers ) at 200 mph ,and compare them to your,e experience . I mean each of us react differently as far as our seat time in almost identical boats . :drink: |
