You may think I'm BS-ing, but I've been with Howard Arneson is his 40' Skater at 172 mph, in 1992! At that time the kilo record at the time was held by Tom Gentry at 136 MPH. Howard told us at the time; "people don't even lie about going this fast." I always loved that saying... What a GREAT GREAT Guy Howard is!
