BTW since Dave Scott doesn't race anymore I wonder if he'll register in the NP class as well?

That's what I don't like about Loto!! Years ago it was only the back yard power boaters.Then came the professional teams just for exhibition and know regular Joe don't have a shot at top gun. Yes they have classes but follow the money. There's plenty of racing to go around I think it took something away from the event.Still great but battle of the bucks. Just Saying

Mike was Top Gun in the V class.
As a side note Mike Lovergine's fiancee JoAnn will be throttling the boat this year. Should be an interesting class to watch.
Also look for a Ken Gaudy to break 100 mph in his pontoon this year. He has about 1300-1400 hp. We have a lot of fast boats on the Chain-o-Lakes in Illinois.

You are absolutely right. However, it had a RETRACTABLE canopy. It also didn't have supervee numbers and sponsors names down the side of it. It had amenities....the Fountain doesn't. It is a race boat.....period.
