In years past you were allowed a on plane start if you had surface drives. All the big cats were allowed rolling starts. Some rolled a little faster than others.

Jim Darr being chased. LOL

Yes correct I missed bob's last run. I seen all the other ones. VERY impressed.
I felt bad for Gino.. I knew he went out with more expectations. BUT that is boating... Spend 50k and a $4.00 part ruins the weekend.

David Scott has got that boat figured out.... Just watching the TV he looked like he was rolling!!!!


Can't say enough about the stream TV . That was awesome all weekend.

Congrats to everyone out there...!!!

[QUOTE=Brad Zastrow;2943237]In years past you were allowed a on plane start if you had surface drives. All the big cats were allowed rolling starts. Some rolled a little faster than others.

when your old 32' Skater went 162mph at LOTO, it's was from one motor in neutral and one in forward....almost from a dead stop.

I would't say he ended it.....Maybe just steped it up a notch.
