A little Shootout teaser, http://speedonthewater.com/in-the-ne...-of-the-ozarks.
Anyone else getting psyched for the Shootout? If you;re there, please stop by the speedonthewater.com trailer and say hello. |
I thought there was a write up coming about the infamous WL and the sightings reported.:evilb:

Me too! Misleading to say the least.
Doesn't 177 qualify as any color lightning you want? I like turbine colored. http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2819/9...d28a5a44_o.jpg LARGE STATEMENT 50 Bimini Challenge 2010 |

I have not heard of the "infamous" White Lightning (beyond the homemade booze of course), but that doesn't surprise me. There a lot of things I haven't heard of. So please, fill me in. Anyway, again, sorry if you felt misled. From my end as a headline writer: 1. The boat was fast. 2. The boat was white. 3. The boat went fast during the 2012 Lake of the Ozarks Shootout. Hence the headline. (Of course, I could have called it, "The White Boat Went Fast the Lake of the Ozarks Shootout," but that's a pretty weak headline.) Cheers. |
What was record setting about 177 mph?
|
For its class
NPCP42 NP = nonprofessional C = catamaran P = power added (turbo charger, super charger, etc.) 42 = hull length from 36' to 42' feet There a bunch of class designations for the Shootout. |
Ok, that's what I thought.

Yeah, it was simple word play. Sorry if you felt misled.

No need for an apology, sorry if my post came off as rude. Great thread with an awesome photo as usual. |
