Dave,
That is absoloutley incredible. Do you plan to run the turbine boat in OSS CX now that you're getting her dialed in? Still love the piston boat of course (hard to beat the sound of those water pounding Sterlings
).
BTW, thanks for the Bud Select necklaces with the props we got from your crew at Pickwick. You guys are the king of bling, as well as offshore.
Now where's that "cat killer"
...................
Best Regards,
Steve

[QUOTE=FunHome;2128314]I was wondering what that sound was!!! I thought maybe it was the running gear, but cutting water sounds better!! You can't hear the turbins until just before the end of the video.
Very Cool!!
It's wild to see and hear. The props sound like a drill running.

Dave really has the MTI running with perfect attitude!!! Could you imagine having to race against that beast? Accelerating the straights faster than most drag cars then into a turn!
That really is... THE MOST EXTREME!
Turbines = the sound of the future

Actually DT, I can tell you, my buddy called me Thurs from the deck of his condo which is in the background of the video and said "holy ****, David is going over 200 for fxxxxxx sure" and held the phone out for me to hear it. He was on his porch drinking a beer and smoking a cigar and said each pass took about 3 seconds to be out of his vision. Awesome David, Bill Walker said to tell you that you definitely look like you got it figured out. See you at the races or at the lake. Hammer
