I never saw a video of OL running, but that Fountain looked like it was running on rails when it hit 160. I don't think anyone will hit 175. I just hope nobody gets killed.

Lose it to a photo of a GPS again ? ? ?

Re: Good Luck Fountain
 

Fountain HAS been proving it on the racecourse - for about the last TWENTY years.
Over those twenty-odd years, I would venture to guess that NO manufacturer can even BEGIN to approach Fountain's success on the racecourse.

Even the 'Rio Roses' boat ( fastest V-hull of all time ) has a distinguished racing legacy.

When / is it televised?

Re: Good Luck Fountain
 

Rio Roses is a butt kicking boat. This was Deerfield last year.

Hey Ange,

That pic looks like a 75 footer! :drink:

Re: Good Luck Fountain
 

I have seen the boat. All I have to say is watch out OL. I think conditions will be the issue.

Re: Good Luck Fountain
 

So if it's rough, OL will have an advantage??? :eek:

What do you mean "What Sport"
Is drag racing a sport? Boat motorcycle or vehicle.
You put two competitors against one another trying to achieve a goal before or above the other and you have yourself a sport.

Unless you've got the stones to run a boat that fast, I would not question the validity of the sport.

This competition has brought new light and new recognition (As well as new technology) to a game we all love to play. Best of luck two both camps and lets hope we come out with high numbers instead of sad stories.
