I would not be surprised if Bob Russel's boat ran faster than XXX. I thought we would see that in the NYC Poker Run, but Russel's boat broke. I wish someone had video of that boat when it was running, it simply amazes me that Fountain and Outerlimits are running these speeds. According to both videos from the Fountain and the Outerlimits, they were very stable.

If he does a kilo run with it, he better bring a Top fuel pit crew with him to rebuild the motor's before the start of the second run.

Yea and I seem to remember another boat that sports the huge BAJA logo on the sides that Bob Morgan has picked up a lot of offshore trophies with................seems like some cat builder named SKATER built it. But selling and being supported by someone else gets it to the finish line. I,s called business. Lets don't try and make it as if someone is trying to fool anyone.

Actually "Rio Roses" is the old Zenetex boat that Jeff Harris ran in APBA. It is a vinyl ester boat built on the assembly line. The only boats that Skater built were some of the ones that had twin canopies on them.
