Did any other boats run today ?

No. Rumor has it twisted metal will be ready soon.

Damn that's FLYIN for a V bottom, major congrats to the OL guys and crew.

I want some in cockpit footage, its 2014 !

You can't tell me the fountain crews are gonna just let this happen ??? But I will have to say congratulations to OL. Just be careful and let it eat !!!!!

Congrats and I believe they'll come back tomorrow and up it a little more as well. This really shows you how cutting edge Reggie was in the day. You can bash the beaks, say the engines were this or that but it's taken a long time and a lot of technology and refinements to beat him by just 1% so far - let's see what more they can do tomorrow - Good Luck!

Wow! That is awesome. Good luck tomorrow.

Congrats OL!! Good luck and be safe tomorrow.

Congrats Mike and crew. Good luck and be safe tomorrow.

fantastic numbers and no doubt has more in it.on another note,it would have been wild if this engine tech was around 10 years ago.

Just saw this boat as they were finishing the swap from the 1350's to the 1650's. Incredible boat. My son actually got a video of it last week running by Scott's hill marina. He only got him on a return pass though not a full tilt pass. Brian had said he hit over 170 in the Intercoastal before he had made some adjustments to the setup. He commented that he wasn't happy with how it was tracking and that's when he aborted the run. Then made the last round of changes. Sounds like the persistence paid off. Congrats Brian, OL and all involved in this endeavor!
