Will Reggie make a run before Miami?
 
What's the latest? Will he make a run before the Miami Boat Show?

Just heard on Saturday that he is not going to do the run before the miami show.

why would he ? the longer he waits, the less total runs he has to make and the more free advertising he gets. I haven't heard of anyone going after his current record before miami.

He was until they blew a trans. last week. Lucky they broke it in a warmup run. Could of been bad to do it at 190. Now they are working on beefing it up for that kind of power.

Too bad, record runs always make the show a little more interesting.

What's better for advertising, raising your own record, or beating a competitors record?

Good Luck to them

would be a good opportunity for OL to step up and make a run knowing the competition is down with no chance at a record run before the show..... marketing...... :eureka:

Would a tranny really knock them out of an attempt to make the run? I mean can't they have a new one in the boat in a couple of hours?

Why would one risk having a transmission with the kind of power they are using when trying to break a record? Does not sound smart to me. One more thing to break?
Thanks, Cam-shaft.

True, wouldn't they use crashboxes?

They need a gear to get up and a gear for top end. Nobody has anything that can handle the power yet

Cam-shaft 02-08-2007 11:38 AM

Re: Will Reggie make a run before Miami?
 
2 speed or 3 speed sounds like a good idea if they can handle the sudden torque load.
Thanks, Cam-shaft.

I read that when it was posted by OSO in the news section. :drink:

Besides, I'm talking about marketing from the ohhh ahhh factor of having a world record boat for sale the show...

Call SBI and ask Big John

Re: Will Reggie make a run before Miami?
 
You know Reg could save a bunch of money by just using a GPS and a camera, instead of getting SBI up there to certify it with proper trial equipment. It seemed to work for other manufactuers...

Maybe they should but right now there's won't work
