This has nothing to do with Mark's ability of outstanding boat building quality's. I NEVER doubted that. :D

Might be interesting this year with the Apache predetor racing again. Thought in another thread yesterday they just are 5 for 5 races and all of them are first places.

Being as we are talking about World Championships and not boats.... ;) I have a question:

How many times has a World Championship Title been given out in any offshore organization when there was only one boat in the class ? :confused:

I know it has to have been more than once.....

Re: Has Outterlimits ever won a world title???
 
AHHHHH Sharkey, I was just wondering the same thing last night as I read over this thread. I personally do not know for sure but I think some of those P-Class and/or Manufactures Cup titles only had one boat in a lot of races.

Finally..............

Now that's a race boat.......

Give the Fiore's their props today.

After years of making boating's version of the Lamborghini.... (fast....pretty....ego machines with little or no actual race heritage)........

They have finally stepped up and made a true race hull.

I'm curious how their new Mike Peters designed cat will run....

and if it will make it to the race course as well....

With their legion of well heeled followers, they just might get some new, well financed teams into the sport......

Looks like the rules and regulations are starting to catch up with REGGIE! The new Outerlimits race boat is going to be a success. Thanks, Cam-shaft.

Re: Has Outterlimits ever won a world title???
 
The Outerlimits boat looked great running at Destin. Very stable and fast. They did some great work on that boat. There was some attrition in super V but hey that's racin'...it's more than just how fast the boat is...it's how good the boat is set up and how smart the team runs it. The Badboy boat is super fast and was leading by a huge margin...now that is a fast boat....but...they can't keep it together. It would be awesome to see the SBI/APBA Fountains (which I feel are better prepared boats than the Muscle boat) and both Skaters run against the Outerlimits and Badboy.
see ya, Mike

Joe Sgro will not miss a beat....if the boat is a fast one....then it will be something....I am sure there will be more support than he got from Fountain in the last years...which from what I saw personally....was basically nothing at the worlds while in his camp....Joe is the longest racer on the circuits if I am not mistaken....he does not miss races....and has done it all....I would venture to say that the minor issues will be resolved basically right away....and he will be on top....just like he was with this boat....he is a silent giant in the boat racing world.....

Damn you sound like a armchair quarterback. I have no idea who you are, but ..... have you ever raced. If not, when are you gonna step up and race yourself?

(And if you paid attention to things, you would know that P-class does not exist anymore.)

Just to be clear, my reason for originally posting this thread was not to bash OL. I know the history Cigarette has to put "World Champion Racing Team" on the sides of their boats (they also won races out of country). I was just wondering what OL has. I'm very glad to see team OL give 'others' something to compete against.

Now, if all the SBI/OSS B.S. would stop and put them back together for a REAL U.S. Championship race (it's still not a world tital to me, racing over seas is MUCH larger than here) then we'd see who's REALLY champion.

Not trying to start an argument or anything but has Reggie ever been caught cheating? I know people say he cheats all the time but has anyone ever proved it?

Is it that hard to believe he has a faster hull than anyone else?

As far as finishing by idleing over the finish line, that is not right but, it is not cheating is it?

I thought I counted 3 on the second day and I think there was one more than that on the first day in Destin. :)

Re: Has Outterlimits ever won a world title???
 
There were 4 boats total, muscle DNS and Bad boys broke. The OL has plenty more left, only ran as fast as need be.

Downtown42 11-15-2006 02:22 PM

Re: Has Outterlimits ever won a world title???
 
Dee, I think that Fever Mikes post was pulled out of the archives but not sure.

There was no World Champions for anyone this year. I will say OL did a nice job and congratulations are in order for the Northern Championship this year.

I know I poke and joke alot, its all fun for most. OL has my respect, they have an excellent customer service and product.

I do have to say, the race boat sure looks like a Fountain with the extended hull over drives and the VERY_LOW freeboard. Doesn't look much like the boats they sell to the public, where as Fountain raceboats are same hull as what I can buy.

Now,




























where's the wuzzy's from Cig?? :bunny: :evilb:

Re: Has Outterlimits ever won a world title???
 
Credit where credit is due... OL won, it's over, they're champs in OSS in my book. :cool:

Here's an aside...Why call these races "World Championships" anyway...I never really understood the "World Series" of Baseball either... What qualifies the word "World" :eek: :drink:

Now,

Personally, I feel the OL raceboat looked more like a cat running out there. Looks nothing like a fountain. And we all know a fountain race boat IS NOT the same as a fountain production boat (Correct me if I'm wrong ... but wasn't skater doing the hulls a while back.) And, for the most part, aren't all boats really just a magnum anyway.
But anyway, I'm really just getting sick and tired of ALL the bashing. Not one of us on this thread were out there racing, and if we could have been, we would have done it on any boat that was allowable. We all know I luv the OLs, but I really try not to bash other things, just sometimes things get the best of me and I feel, I gotta say something. Whether it's racing or a poker run. We're supposed to have fun. Not put other peoples things down that they like sooooo much. Just could never get why people gotta knock what they don't have.(Oh, crap, I sound like my mother now :eek: ........ I better stop :rolleyes: )
