unlimited is unlimited....whatever you want!
engine or turbine...
you can have a JATO for all we care!
run 4 engines if you think you need it...

if a 4 engine boat won all the time it would have been another class...when GEICO wins,,,they were racing alone...when they don't win,,,they got beat.

this is just my personal .02

a cat would have to use 4 engines, not 3...and while dreaming; dream big...make it 70 feet long too.

I know...I was picking on you, buddy....

Yes, I am sure that you have something planned for 2009!

No offense,but the best big boat racing took place in the original Super Cat class.There was as many as 17 great teams resulting in very competitive racing throughout the pack.You guys can relate to this having raced in Factory 2.I think moving forward,the sport needs to get back to one featured cat class and one featured vee class.Under the current class structure; the top boats and crews are spread out among too many classes.

none taken...

i do agree with some of your post.

this is what the turbine is doing...true unlimited! back in the day it didn't matter what you ran... 4 engine cats...3 engine V's...diesels, turbos, alcohol...whatever. it's hard to complain about rules when there are none.

ps...out of 17 super cats how many were really in it? how many winners were there for the season?...it's on one hand.

OK..I actually agree with some your post as well.I also think Superboat Unlimited should be unlimited...piston or turbine;creating two unlimited classes for just a few boats does not make sense.
I also think there should be one Superboat(Super Cat)class...the 850/750 thing needs to be resolved.
