Mike tick tacks fountain. 110+?
Excess energys 41 velocity?
Gentry scarab. 126?
A big power velocity 30? Supposedly one went 115.

Has this boat made a top speed run yet?

I would imagine it's a contender.

This is pretty good question. I would have to imagine the fastest straight bottom V would have to be over the 115-120 mph mark. Since there is a few sabers and apaches that are talked about running in the 105-115 mph range. If 115mph is the mark to beat, I may be awful close in my BT!!!

Is a Fountain really a straight vee? It has a pad bottom. I guess if a Velocity is allowed its ok. I did think you were talking about a "real" straight vee though.
