I saw the boat sitting outside of the Taco Bell late at night in Appleton, Wisconson a few weeks ago......... UNREAL!!! It looked like a rocket ship! Best looking boat and rig I have ever seen! :D :cool:

JBS your boat looks great hope to see you guys battle it out in the Keys in Nov....

i think it could. the geico mystic boat went 210. the boats are similiar powered and hulled. but i believe the geico mti is only 188 or so.

keep in mind i dont even have a boat, so i could be way off...

Yes, you can beat Geico! Thanks for coming to LOTO, as you put on a hell of a show. Awesome looking boat, and it appeared that especially mid-race, you were gaining quite a bit of ground. We watched from our boat right across from the Horny Toad. How did you like the race setup at LOTO?

Yes, it has Lycoming T55s which make 2800hp each. JBS has Lycoming T53-703s which make 1800hp each.

LOTO was great. the fans were great! we can't not thank them enough.

other sites need to benchmark LOTO.

from our rooms...to the wet pits...it was all over the top!

please come visit us in KW...JBS Racing is all about the fans...we are going to bring offshore racing to the fans like no other team in the history of the sport!

Joe,
The JBS Mystic looks awesome, I love the Silver!! I remember watching the JBS Mystic getting painted, and I was talking with Cosker about how I'd love to paint our boat that color someday.:drink: The acceleration in a turbine powered boat, is the most incredible RUSH, that I've experienced, (other than my kids being born):cool:
Good luck this season, maybe we get a chance to come down to KW this year.
Take care,
Dean

Time will tell, but I can definately a see a battle brewing between JBS and Geico.

The boat looked great at LOTO. Its a catch 22 with the racers and fans. Both come out for each other. Great job.

Anyone know when Aqua -mania will join the fray?..now all we need is Budweiser to invest in a mystic turbine and we have a show! haha

Dave Scott has said repeatedly that he's staying with pistons. Even with the probles he's been having with the Sterlings I don't think he'll change his mind, but you never know. With three turbines racing next year he might switch.

audacity 10-01-2008 10:44 PM

bud has a mystic with amazing engines in it...and they have had a turbine boat.

i hear aquamania will be at PC and KW.

Nobody will beat my Geico boys!!!Marc and Scotty are the baddest on the planet!!I know first hand.

You guys have to remember now that AMF has been running in their turbine boats for a while now, just let JBS get some time in their new boat and Miss GEICO is going to have to get used to seeing the other guys pass by with the flag......

If that starts happening, Haggin will bust out HIS Mystic.

BajaBennett 10-05-2008 10:17 AM

If the GEICO team wants to stay out in front they may just have to start running the MYSTIC. The MTI will not run with the MYSTIC head to head!!!!
