Fastest Vee Bottom at LOTO
 

Billy Betz in his Outerlimits SV 43 is the fastest vee bottom as of now at LOTO with a 140mph pass. The boat is a full canopied boat with 1075s and number 6's! The boat will run past 140 given more room to stretch her legs!!

Wow.
 

Very impressive. Can't wait for the pix's to start showing up.

Ol 43
 

Great Run by that OL 43.. I watched it live.. Boat was on rails and looked perfect.. Also, great colors too !!

I was hoping it would make another run, but haven't seen it out again...

Correction. Let me re-phrase it for ya Dan.

Congratulations Billy Betz and JC Performance!

Good stuff...
 

That's what we want to hear.

They handle amazing at any speeds, slower and faster. I'm hoping someone got a video of his run!

Watching a Large Vee at those kind of speeds is.......
 

second only to....., really good sex. Warp speed cats and turbines are cool but Vees and piston motors are "OFFSHORE".
Love to see that video. Thing is, if it was a perfect pass, it will appear boring in a video.
Was never a Reggie fan but loved his hate for cat's and attempts to run w/them.

1075's? I thought those things were making 1200+ now?

Regardless, very impressive number!

Yeah....why be a fan of a man who drove a vee bottom to 177MPH and holds more kilo records than any hull in the industry....that would be stupid. noob....

Uhmmmm, OK?
 

I'm a "noob" ?? Isn't that "newb" anyhow??
Let's see, you joined OSO in '07 which is 5 yrs after I did and I'm the "newb"? Oh wait, I see. Your boat is bigger than mine. I understand.
Know where your hero got his start?
Know which boat he splashed when he "designed" the 1st legendary Fountain?
Know which brand ran the 1st pad bottom that he Invented?
Know which brand ran the first notched transom that he invented?
Know which brand ran the first beak bow that he invented?
Know which yr he first drove the company in the ditch so Mercruiser had to take it over to recoup part of their losses?
Know who he blamed then?

I get attacked for not liking your hero? I know my history and have done my home work have you?
I like the boats just not the man.
Pretty sure that's allowed on "your" site isn't it?

You've got a big boat w/big motors. I'm impressed and want to be you.
