LOTO Shootout
 

Any Checkmates running in the 2006 LOTO Shootout? If so, what category and power?

I might be going as a spectator. Still looking for lodging. I guess waiting until the last minute was a mistake.

Magic keep looking something's got be vacant. No Checkmates running???

I know of a couple 100 mph plus checks but I don't that they are running. We are looking but not trying to break the bank in the process.

Just in case anyone is trying to figure out how to run their Checkmate in the 18th annual LOTO Shootout here is what you need to know:
Registration is at Shooter's 21
Friday 8-25 from 9AM-5PM
Saturday 9AM-5PM
Sunday 9AM-2PM
You need:
kill switch that works
helmet
type 4 Coastguard approved life vest (Walmart???)
$100 (I believe for an unlimited amount of passes)
So who is in?

What is the fastest single vee....and how fast was it...I heard it was a baja or a checkmate....

Re: LOTO Shootout
 

Last year the fastest single vee ran 109mph. The boat was a 24ft Baja H2X with 1175HP in front of a XR drive. The boat was a real sleeper, very impressive.

Hey Rob, just drop a big blue motor in the back of that thing this weekend and go for it!!!

Scuba,
I was thinking about running our boat as is. I purchased a Lifeline vest just in case the air and water conditions would promote a decent run. My wife accepted the Lifeline from UPS when I was at work and I had some explaining to do. After a long lecture from the boss it looks like I will not be running no matter what the air temp and water looks like. :mad:
