Obscurity? Who? |
everyone could say the same thing about the auto industry if it werent for the gov. bail out. once again, why hasn't OL set the Kilo record?

I was thinking the same, it is a shame that so many awesome runs seem to be approached with less than sensible safety equipment.http://goo.gl/Z3g1EF

Sorry, couldn't resist, all fun and games, and it's winter right?! Lol Here we go....... Would be neat to see OL step up and beat that run!! |

not like it matters but OL hasn't built half the number of boats fountain did. BTW, Reggie did these speeds 10 years ago. It's great and all but not ground breaking for sure

Putting Sunsation and Checkmate in the same sentence as OL, Cig, and Nortech is funny.

Why is it that every time some one posts something positive about a brand then some azzhole always has to chime in about Reggie fountain? Good for him, now go away.

2. There is no money in it 3. Spending all your company's money racing doesn't seem to be a good business plan based on history. 4. Perhaps they enjoy building and selling boats. Just my guesses here. ;) |
What brand boat do you own?????
