[QUOTE=skater40;4036873]I would be more excited if they had there vests on.

I was thinking the same, it is a shame that so many awesome runs seem to be approached with less than sensible safety equipment. I could not be 100% sure on the jackets on my screen. Pretty confident on the helmets though.
Never the less, it is an amazing number.

Im impressed. He even came out of the throttles kind of quick, and the thing didn't do anything weird. You dump the sticks in a Skater vee bottom at 130 mph, and you better have some good credit with Jesus. That thing wants to kill you!
Very cool.

Boat looks sick! ...... Their sleek lines are really growing on me. This boat in particular is beautiful. They really are evolving faster, way faster than any other manufacturer. Paint is amazing. Some of the nineties /early2000's colors were pretty bad.(as were many others)..... I will say, that in watching the OL boats race in Key West, the amount of side to side constant chine walking is far more noticeable on the OL than with any other manufacturer. Far more. Is this just a trait of the OL hull? Just wondering because they really do look like a handful to drive. Congrats to OL for stepping it up!

Great thread Mark!
Outerlimits is defiantly raising the bar for Performance V's. We took delivery of a 2014 36SL with the new Mercury Racing HP520's and have seen 98mph out of it. It accelerates like a boat with twice the HP, has a two year warranty, is easy to drive and has a full cabin.
We are also ecstatic with our 52 SL with 1350's. We had it out on Lake of the Ozarks yesterday for lunch and ran 131.5 with 6 people on board, full of fuel and have yet to come close to "pushing" the boats its limits. The 52 has every option A/C, Gen, 4 bolsters, TV/DVD, Vacu-head, etc, fully loaded. It ran 139.8 at the factory before delivery.
Its great take other brand owners on demo's and get their feedback. All smiles when we get back to the dock!!

XXX was not the boat that went against fountain, it was the boat I own, bob russel's boat "can you feel the heat". The boat has been in the 170s with the big power, runs excellent with 1075s...
XXX did run the record but, it's been since redone
Pure Evil was the other Kilo boat....
All bad ass GTXs
Congrats to Dustin and Mike and the OL Crew for a great accomplishment!

Boat turned out very nice, checked it out in Key West. Congrats Team OL and Dustin those are some great numbers. I also liked the "Whipple" foot rest, painted drives and interior.
