cheating has been around all sports since day one. reggie may just be a little bigger cheater lol. in all honesty, who really cares? let them run and race, not many left who can afford to do the sport. if they get caught then they get disqualified, simple. there is already to many politics, rules and regs in the sport. it's just nice to see them all run

I remembe many times, the voice in my head saying " ok you hit that at speed, we are getting out of shape, but I think we have the room to pull it back together before we die" MOST of the time that voice was right, the couple occasions when it was wrong, I feel those mistakes when I get out of bed these days....

OK, my boat goes 85 on the inter-coastal and in 3 footers on the ocean and I might get ejected but the boat in mention is a closed canopy.. I've been 115 in a 28 outboard skater and 110ish in a 42 outerlimits. Over 100 in a Fountain 42.

What can go wrong in a straight line... if its loose. Isnt loose good?

I am serious - I just dont understand. I've raced Motorcross and you get outta control in the whoops, raced quads and get crazy on table tops. Drag raced and never crashed but got loose for 100 yards... I'm just a dumb Hungarian, help me out...

Loose = trip and stuff. Flatter the boat is, faster the boat is. The more that bow is in the air, the slower you go. Running as loose as possible up to that point, is good.

Ever seen the apache video where they make the unexpected had 90 turn?? , did you see trash do an unexpected 90 turn in OC a couple years ago??, ever seen the trip and stuff video when the boat comes up there is nothing left of the bow but splinters?

Ever see see a 38 Fountain with big steps go thru a corner at 95mph.


I say 95 because at 90 you hold on and pray, at 95 you watch your azz pass you.

Hell, today warpath was going straight and managed to mow down a 3000 pound giant green bouy. Those guys are damn lucky they went up and over instead of being impaled.
