Well, as I sit here in my hotel room in Birmingham, AL this thread really gives me better entertainment that what is on TV. :drink:

Sharkey, I was great to finally meet you in Destin at Hollis' ORL meeting. It's all in good fun and I was suprised you did not even have a OL t-shirt on...oh wait a minute....it's Cigarette that's into the t-shirt deal...my bad :eek: :D .

Anyway, it's my dream to see the Fountains from SBI (much better prepared boats than the Muscle Fountain) and the Skaters in SBI run together with the OSS OL and Badboy boat. I loved seeing OL finally get a boat out there to race...good for them they did well! Like I said it's just probably a dream.

Unification of Offshore Racing

This is such a recurring theme here and I believe it should continue, to drive our point home.
Racers, organizers, promoters and possible sponsors check in here, I'm sure.
It's what all the fans want and surely it's agreed by now that the fans drive the sport.

I will always have hope.

I have been first hand in both camps[OL and Fountain] and know all the first hand knowledge!!!I am told by both sides to post only what they tell me to post.I am not a cheerleader for OL or Fountain.There is a big rivalry!!I have been a close friend to Joe Sgro who i have raced with and supported since i have met him.He raced for Reggie and now has teamed up with OL for specific reasons.What i am getting at is that what is being posted here on this thread is alot of BS.If you post on this thread, you should know the FACTS of what is true!!!

What speeds are the OSS Super V's running and what speeds are the SBI/APBA Super V's running?

It is not the top speed that they run.It is how they accelerate.A good super vee can run 110 plus top speed.What they look at is how fast can the boat go from 60 to 90.A good boat can do it in 10 to 11 seconds.Your dealing with no power and RPM and the focus is in acceleration with a good top speed and a good turning boat.These boats can run 114 set up for a kilo run, but dont run near that race ready.

Yeah, I would say it's R's show.. Without him, what are you left with? An hour of free time to cut the lawn on Saturday. :drink:

As I said in the past, I don't dislike the performance of the boats, nor dislike him as a person, just his practices of getting his class titles...

Read the Rule book. As long as the work is approved and done by the approved sealer of the engines, he is not cheating... So with that, technically he is running legal, but just might have a little more than someone else...Seems fair doesn't it ? :rolleyes:

I am familiar with the delamination incident. I am also aware of the class that boats is in etc. old news.
That's ONE incident out of almost two decades of Fountain championships in all different classes. I guess Fountain has had their little hands in every race for almost 20 years? Come on, we all weren't born yesterday.

Andrew,

You're just not happy here, are you? You've been banned
from this forum twice within the last few weeks. I knew it
was you again, early on. Your posts are easy to distinguish.
Are you so mad that you publicly "wish me dead" on the
"What's your favorite gauge" thread? And here you tell me
I'm dead, time for a new name. That's not very nice.

You were SLANDREW til 10-31, then banned. You then became the
GREAT SOUTH BAY from 11-1 til 11-1, banned in less than a day !!
and now you've re-registered as BURGER&FRIES from 11-1 til now.

It's easy to see your reluctance to become a paid member again.

Unlike you, I never report your posts or contact Admin.
Yet, you keep getting booted somehow. And just like before,
I won't report your post or contact Admin this time either.
Maybe they'll read these threads, maybe not, and you can continue.

I hope to keep my screen name for a long time here as I,
unlike you, feel I have something to add to this forum at times.
I wonder though, with your personal attacks and generally useless posts,
if you might be shopping for your fourth screen name in less than a month?

Or possibly, others on this board will take offense to your type of
mentality and personal attacks. Most likely though, it'll be as
it was before and you'll simply be ignored until you go away again.

Ya I agree. I am disapointed with what they did last year in KW, but fixing just about every race for past 15-20 years, come on. And I know not every boat racin was a Beak

No, the Skater was layed up FOR Baja by skater but Baja backed out of the deal. Skater did some tweaking to it before they made it their own, with their own deck lid.

Baja or Skater?

There have been "sexy" V bottoms lately. Fountain usualy makes sick looking hulls. That OL is the hottest thing I've seen. If it performs half as good as it looks, then wonderful. They have the World Championship in hottest ass looking hull.

Levis if you buy them at cheap discount stores have you noticed they don't last as long?

I pay more for almost every-thing cause its better long term value and is usualy better......

Apply this even towards food; friends of mine a few weeks ago wanted Prime Rib, "lets go to Outback" they said, my reply: "lets spend the extra $10 get better food and go to Ruth Chris!"

Eh, Ruth Chris is ok.... I'd rather go to Uncle Jacks or better yet Peter Lugers.. :D :drink:

I'm not sure what it has to do with Outerlimits wining the title though.. :rolleyes:

Yeah, it may not be on their boat, but it is the advertising:

11-19-2005 "Congratulations are also in store for the Rio Roses Fountain factory team that captured the world championship with the new 46' race canopy and a pair of prototype Mercury 1200 horsepower engines exclusively provided to Fountain."

Little strange I only see 1 or 2 articles for 2006 under the TEAM FOUNTAIN RACING NEWS... :confused: This time last year there was 6.

If any Fountain deserved a World Championship win this year, it was ON THE CHIP !
Unfortunately they fell short. :(
They sure as hell tried!
They have earned my respect with that boat....
But from what I hear, it suffered some major glass damage along with the other Fountain, Strictly Business...
Time to break out the grinders and resin buckets... :( :( :(
I look forward to seeing them both run next year!

BTW,

Is Muscle and WAZZUP part of TEAM FOUNTAIN RACING ??? :confused:
