Stampede jumped what was planned to be a pace boat, then everyone decided to go too. I know the gold/purple MTI owner who claimed he was running roughly 130 in the area this vid was taken........and was 7th. Note the acceleration of that 388 coming across the screen much faster than the rest, that thing has got to be scary fast!!!

We were running 110 - 115 thru the 7-mile stretch when the video was taken (not 130). We were all running together and Matt had not dropped the flag when Saratoga took off. The 388 Skaters definitely held back for the entire run. Matt and I ran together later on at 130+ for a stretch until I had an alarm go off. Had a blast and stayed safe.

The Mouth of the Chick River is 5 miles before Jamestown Island(water stop), as to why they didn't stop, not sure. Maybe they didn't feel like opening the canopy and getting all unstrapped for a bottle coolie.
