Kind of off topic, but what boat is/was on your website as "Recovery"? Was this one built new or another raceboat before? Like the stripe scheme. Where did this MTI go? Still have same graphics on it?

I hope they can get it ready for the Clearwater race. More boats and more fun.

Alot of people complained about frequent rebuilds, thought it may be the limiting factor in the class.Time will tell , but the more the better. I had the pleasure of racing JR from Stihl in Coaco beach, they have converted to SUPERCAT from cat lite. All who are currently in the class want to race more boats. Its was pretty dismal for a while but hope this is a step in the right direction. Key West will be the test, Stihl,Loriblu,Warpaint,WHM and Myself will be there. There is also Abrams-Reliable, Bouedreaux's ASHTON, Talkin Trash and Mazzonis BTM sittin around that could easily make a 7-9 boat fleet possibility in the future. Im personally sick of a 1or 2 boat race, Im sure the fans are too.

Tony thats great to see some movement in the SuperCat class to bring it back together. My all time favorite class right there. What kind oh HP are seeing with the lower compression ratio?


Congrats to the Warpaint guys on the new ride.
