Cat Chaser or Cat Killer?
 
2 Attachment(s)
What do you think? :party-smiley-004:

Was a very interesting TD but, will CK actually plan ahead to run against the big Cats (TD showed), or will it always be a stealth situation like it has been?:rolleyes:

There are for sure two of the Cats Stalking!:nhl_fight:

"If you talk to him tell him, tell him I'm looking for Cat chaser. We were hoping he would be at the Aronow Memorial. Hopefully he will be at Emerald coast." LubeJobs42

"I understand if you don't show. I wouldn't want to feel like a whipped dog either after this cat puts you down. Very Respectively Yours! Speed Racer"

"Gino, if this goes down I'm gonna hit the course early and get a good spot for some pictures!!!" Croozin2

I doubt it, unless they can control the event:grinser010: however, that being said, I don't know the situation with the new owners or anything about them.

How many Fountains were in your class when you won it a couple of years ago?:rolleyes:

Chris Sunkin 07-02-2008 09:23 AM

I sincerely doubt Reggie will show up to a fair fight.

As a die-hard vee-bottom guy, I would think I'd be rooting for Reggie. But he makes me want to puke.

If he could just show up with an incredible killer boat and run it, people would fawn over him. I believe he could construct ( or pay to have constructed) an incredible ocean racer. But he's just not going to beat the cats at their own game.

Yes

LubeJobs42 07-02-2008 09:49 AM

I was in Jacksonville when he pulled his sneak attack. We were all following the pace boat out at about 50 mph and off in the distance to the left of us was a friggin bullet, flying up the sideline. He had to be doing over 150. I had no idea who it was or if he was even part of the poker run. Then he says he dominated the run. I have been a fan of Reggie since i was a kid. I thought the ICBM was the coolest thing i ever saw, back than.
His videos and comments really get my testosterone up, I know the real deal, i was there. The Mercedes boat was the predecessor of Speed Racer, I would be honored to have the world famous Reggie Fountian kick my butt!! (If he can). I'll be in Destin, maybe he will be there.

Can you say "Twin Turbos"?

SinkorSwim 07-02-2008 09:56 AM

Reggie is usually at LOTO durring the shootout.. He is always over at Raymond's glad handing with Charlene and her customers..

As for participating in the shootout... I would doubt it.

can you say too much low end torque and drives that cant handle it and cant get up on plane...? :rolleyes:

i was there in August when they were supposed to hit the Kilo in Washington, saw all the CET crew trucks at the hotel, and gate guard said they were up late but it just wasnt working. i'm going to assume this happened again because back in Feb. of the same year, the same thing happened then too.

Chris, I couldn't agree with you more! I'm glad to see someone else gets it! All those swinging on reggies sack can't ever see that reggies antics take away from the ligit accomplishments of fountain. Its sad really because fountain has done so much but so many people hate fountain and would never buy one because of all the b.s.

Aight Rat, I don't have a dog (or cat, I guess:grinser010:) in this fight. I only want to get some good pics. Just to be clear, I'm not laying down any challenges here! I'm just the drunk photog!!!:evilb::party-smiley-004:

I really can't believe all you GUYS have nothing better to talk about. All that means by everyone posting pictures of kittens w/ toys is that you all are scard......Let me tell you, your kittens better pick up some bigger guns if they want to win any races. I know for a fact that the CAT KILLER engines are at Sterling as we speak. I do have to agree w/ one thing that has been said, the name Cat Chaser. You are right the Boat show direct-Fountain-Cat Killer boat does chase the kittens down first and then kills them. Why don't all of you stop acting like women and step up and agree that when the Cat Killer is all back together that all of you will be eating your words along w/ the kittens you run with. There may be a few as I see that run with it or beat it and they know who they are and I give them their "props".But for the rest of you, its just here kitty kitty. Rumor has it that they picked up nine lives cat food as a sponser, Morris was afraid...............
Sincerly, One hot blonde (the canary that ate the cat) and yes i'm calling you all women.....

Well.... Shogrens 850 boat was in our class, but later had a class of it's own made. Wonder why...... Probably didn't have anything to do with Fridays pick up races on the lake...... :D :D All joking aside, that 850 42 Lightning looked like it ran really nice. There isn't a doubt in my mind that fountain makes a helluva Vee, their marketing tactics just hurt them.

As for Turbo's..... this is a pick from Shogrens website when they had the 'chaser' listed for sale. :D

P.S. Which one of the big buck cats has Reggie run down and "killed"? Callan? Geico?

The OSO bretheren can count on me!!!!:D:D

Believe me, I'll try to have some backup cameras in other boats as well. I don't wanna miss this!!

Only problem with the Emerald Coast poker run is they don't have a set sequence to make the stops. So, someone is going to have to set the time and location for this challenge, if it happens.

Reggie? Is that you?? Its gotta be reggie with such an assinign post that follows the same typical stupid, immature P.R. Practices. Let me ask you there slick...besides the time kitty fluffer was doing 150 mph in a no wake zone and violated poker run safety rules during their publicity stunt, when exactly have they beat a cat? I don't know how many times theyve been told to show up to the loto or havasu shoot out to showcase their self proclaimed domination over everything that floats. or recently at the arronow memorial race where they couldve done it ligit. But they don't and until that thing runs over 200 mph it will remain the kitty fluffer not the cat killer. All the lies cheating and B.S. Propaganda in the world won't change the facts.

I was thinking the same thing!! The post sounds just like the humerous Cat Killer commercial everyone laughs about. The Aronow race was the perfect oppertunity to put up or shut up! A timed event with judges and an even playing field for everyone. Seems to me that was the perfect way to prove exactly what he has been trying to convince everyone for 3 years by the way of doctored videos and exagerated commercials.

Who said "alot"? And, how many do you need to be capable of travelling over 200 before the "Cat Killer" isn't the fastest boat in the world anymore, running in the 170's?

The ironic part is that Bacardi Silver ran over 200 in Reggie's back yard, what, 6 years ago now... Cat Killer couldn't run with the fastest cats of back then, much less now... and that is the reason they take it to poker runs and not races, so they have half a chance.

CET was contracted i believe to develop and deliver 3 pairs (so 6 engines) of the Adiabatic Twin Turboed powerplants, if im thinking/remembering correctly for Fountain Powerboats...

at any rate, whatever happened to them is sure as hell beyond me

and seriously, if they want to make a statement, first throw down on a Kilo like theyve tried to for the past 2 years; (1)once in 2006 when nobody else entered so they cancelled it (that was the Washington 06 SBI event in August, I was there and planned to be at the river to see it happen, but scratched that part of it when they did), (2)once in Feb. 07, they had too many issues with the boat then (i had plans to get up there, but run didnt materialize so neither did i) and in (3)August 07 again, but had planing issues from what i hear (i was there on the river at first light the day it was supposed to go down and stuck around for 2 and a half hours).

ive seen this boat run and break at Sarasota in 2006 and 2007, I've seen it/video'd it absolutely haul ass and break in 2006 at Washington, and Ive seen it/video it haul ass on the course and break (...again) in Morehead City in 2007.

as for the Poker Runs? man, whatever.:Whatever:

seriously, dont show up at a d@mn friendly gathering and say you smoked everybody when d@mn nobody shows up to race.

INSTEAD OF CAMPAIGNING A RACEBOAT ON THE POKER RUN CIRCUIT, TRY DOING IT ON A RACE CIRCUIT. Try and have that boat throw down with the likes of the new Mystics and some of the other bad-built Superboat Unlimited Cats...see whos' the Cat "Killer" then...I have not the least bit of doubt in my mind that the vessel can haul it, but freaking choose somewhere else to do it instead of danged fun-oriented gatherings (or, Poker Runs...not to be confused with the race course)

PS: curse your marketing campaigns...:hitfan:

bit of pent up frustration with this topic...just my two cents on it...they know what the boat can do, as do many of us, just find somewhere else to show it...:angry-smiley-038:

That was my entire point. I wouldn't even mind if they showed at a Poker Run that had a speed run incorporated in it. Just let everyone know ahead of time, (Have class like Gino and John from the Aronow run:ernaehrung004:), and do your best to beat the best. This "stealth" thing bugs me.:mad:

Yeah, there's a bunch of guys with pontoons, old Checkmates, Sea Rays, Bayliners and 40 year-old Lymans who are afraid CK's gonna show up out of nowhere for the Berlin Lake Association Poker Run!

Hey - pontoons count as cats. If he beats 'em, he is a Cat Slayer, ain't he???:cool-smiley-011:

JasonSmith 07-03-2008 10:03 AM

Propaganda. That is all it is. Just to keep everyone talking about Fountain instead of some other brand.
Cat Killer is fast, but there are other boats that are faster. Like Sean H said, Bacardi did 202 MPH in Reggie's neighborhood & that record still stands.
I think Fountain does build a fast hull. I for one am SICK of the BS that Reggie puts out there. We all know the boats are fast, safe, fuel efficient & bla, bla, bla.

chris, Get a job....as far as your comment, i got a phone call last night and you really should stay out of those bars with those pink high heals on, people are going to talk. Lets not get personal and childish with comments and act like a grown man, that is if you are a man.

Stick to the facts, the Cat Killer will be back and take some kittens along for a ride. If they can keep up "great" if they can't oh well..................

I mean cats. cat killer has won the worlds. where ever this machine goes, people show up. fountain is like the NY YANKEES there so good you hate them and where ever they go they sell out seats. your judging the cat killer by one poker run. dont set yourself up for a letdown. see you in the keys.

WARPARTY36 07-03-2008 03:26 PM

I have two words from the pleasure boat world for you Fountain nut huggers.:rolleyes:

Lubejobs and Gatorone:drink: or CanadaThrust and MyWay.

If you get real ballsy BudLight and Geico.
