I'm lost, are the speeds salesman11 said, Reggie's or the new cig. also one guy on here said the cig speeds were still great although they didn't break the record, but i have not seen anyone post the speed unless salesman11 was right. if so looks the same as Reggie's

You guys have to go back a few pages to read everything. The #'s posted was Reggies record. Somebody did post Cig's #'s, they were just a tad off from the record.

Good question. I guess I missed it too. What post # was it?
All I remember reading was something on a thread that was previously deleted by salesman11 about 172 mph. If that was correct, then that was faster than Fountains one way pass of 171.83.
Why does'nt anyone here want to elaborate on the good news?

Before the run, there were a bunch of "know it alls" here that could'nt keep their mouths shut, and now after the Cigs passes they don't have anything to say.

Who's bull$hitting who here?

The fastest pass today was 172. That speed could not be held for any length of time. JT gave it everything he had. I guess it was just not meant to be.
You have to have a two way average so one pass, which was the fastest at 172 mph isn't going to do it. Remember Reggie went 177 plus on one pass.

Wait a minute! Why does it sound like everyones thrown in the towel on this one already (Especially the Fountain proud)? If guys remember Reggie only went 166mph on his first attempt out of the box. Then once he took the boat back out of the water and reworked the bottom of the hull and changed props he started to get the better speeds. Dont you think Cig will do the same thing and try again in a few days or do you all think that one run is enough? I really dont think they would spend that much money and time for a one run deal. I think this boat can do it with a little more work. Hell if the numbers stated here are true then they have already run faster than Reggie an their first attempt. DONT GIVE UP ON THEM YET!!!
