Re: Who?When?and how fast?
 

I believe these are the official speeds that were averaged over one kilometer. Each one of these boats had to run a higher GPS top speed to achieve the official average speed.

Cat Piston Power = Bacardi Silver (now Budweiser Select)
202.907 One way; 198.072 Two Way
Cat Turbine = No Official Record Yet for Offshore Turbine Cats
Budweiser Hydroplane Turbine - 220.xxx Two Way (This is also the propeller speed record)
V Bottom = Fountain Powerboats
177.xxx One Way; 171.xxx Two Way

This is to my best knowledge. If I have made any mistakes or left anything out it is not intentional.

Re: Who?When?and how fast?
 

maybe cig should have fountain or ol build there next boat. :D

Re: Who?When?and how fast?
 

Exactly what I was gonna say. Either way, the boating community as a whole should benefit from this competition as new technology/know how could come out of that everyone can benefit from. As long as everything is safe, then may the best "man" win.

Re: Who?When?and how fast?
 

Now maybe Im wrong here but didnt Callan marine set a cat turbine record a couple years ago? Or did you not metion it because he doesnt drink your kind of beer and the fact that he smoked you 2 years in a row at the shootout? (would have been 3 but the people at anheuser busch saw fit to let miss bud run after Bacardi Silver couldnt beat them)

Im sorry Dave I love your boats and think its amazing what you guys do I just like stirring the pot a little.

Re: Who?When?and how fast?
 

Whoever better do it safely!

Re: Who?When?and how fast?
 

Where did Callan officially set the record at? The shootout should be very interesting this year since they both have turbines.

Re: Who?When?and how fast?
 

You are wrong - Callan has never set an official kilo record. Little doubt that they could - but they have not. Not sure where you're going with the Shoot-Out comments but the results speak for themselves and I am quite pleased with only a 16mph difference this year (185 vs 201) between my 3,000hp piston powered cat versus their 6,000hp turbine powered cat. Look forward to seeing both teams competing with 6,000hp turbine cats though! :drink:

Re: Who?When?and how fast?
 

Hey! I heard Callen was drinking AB products after the shootout :drink:
Mr. Callen and Mr. Scott are both great competitors and both class acts. This year should be great year at the shootout. It will be turbine vs. turbine. Then we can say may the best boat win. :D

Re: Who?When?and how fast?
 

My money is on Kilo Kat!!, I dont care if its Vee or Cat records I just hope everyone does it safely!! These Vee records are getting nuts, somebody is going to get killed!

Re: Who?When?and how fast?
 

You heard correct. Both teams got together after this years Shootout and had a great time on my dock.
Dave Callan, John Cosker and their entire crew are class acts and very strong competitors! I am proud to be able to call them friends. :drink:

Re: Who?When?and how fast?
 

If it wasn't for Anheuser Busch, their wouldn't be a Shoot Out... Are you aware that event cost them around 4 million a year to put on?

Re: Who?When?and how fast?
 

Hey Ill admit when Im wrong I thought that Callan made a kilo run. Dave I have deep respect for you and your team . You got to have your balls screwed on tight for runs like you guys make. Im glad you are now going to run a turbine boat to make the playing field a little more level. Good luck to everyone who makes these fast runs. Be safe!

Re: Who?When?and how fast?
 

Team Combover! :D :D

Re: Who?When?and how fast?
 

Reggie will not re-break his own record. Too much money and risk.

He is ready to run when the bell rings. He has some unbelieveable speeds available to go now. :D

Re: Who?When?and how fast?
 

I have retracted my post. I don't want to see the F people upset again... :rolleyes:

All I'll say is, race season is well on it's way!

We'll see who's still standing in the end.... :evilb:

I hear Troutly will do more than kissazz for a free beer....... :D

Re: Who?When?and how fast?
 

I was actually referring to the racing circuit and who will be standing at the top of the podium... :drink:
The recent OL hull design 46 Limited has proven to be a break through in efficiency compared to the other designs.
They have been doing their homework...
And yes, they take safety very seriously with a fully enclosed capsule surrounding it's crew from all sides with carbon fiber reinforcement...
Glad to see you're back! :drink:

Re: Who?When?and how fast?
 

I'll put a LARGE sum of money on Dave ,Johnny, and the MTI. :evilb: :D

Enough Said. Everyone would always make stupid comments
like that.Even in front of my wife and kids.200 don't sound so
bad strapped in a 46 footer. Hell I have been 160 plus in a 30' open cockpit Shadow Cat.I find it much more dangerous driving on the interstate!!

Re: Who?When?and how fast?
 

I by no way want to jinx anyone dumbass, several of these guys involved i consider friends, I am not a negitive person either just want everyone to be safe. Do you really think these Vee numbers arent on the edge?

Re: Who?When?and how fast?
 

the shootout is not an official record.
I dont think there was any love lost after the shootout either. The next few years shoudl be a great time for both teams and their boat(s)

Re: Who?When?and how fast?
 

like you have room to talk:rolleyes:...Rare Breed has done more for fast and safe boating in a summer than you in your life. Do some research on the person before your cakehole opens next time.
