197 mph PLEASURE BOAT
 

I know Quatar and My Way get a ton of attention as they should, they are also full canopied race boats. But how bout the 197 laid down by JT in Jon Roths Pleasure 388 Skater. Hopefully they can get 200 tomorrow morning when it's cooler. 197 is impressive for how hot it is there. Would be the 1st non Mystic and open cat boat to hit 200 in the shoot out

Geezus!

is that an open or canopy boat?

Open

thats cool an all . . . . . but no flippin way in an open boat :eek:


congrats non the less for having astronomically big cacophonies and laying down a serious number :cool:

Congrats!!!!! Johnny has balls of steal!!!!!

is that Chip Roamers old boat? And do you kow if he is he wearing a chute jacket

No not Romers old boat, another one set up similar with same power

Those Skaters get faster and better looking all the time.

there was one like his out here at Havi a few years back. All white. Anyway I hope he keeps it glued in. He has to be wearing the fiberglass pants and stuff i would imagine. Chip said his would run 198. So this is about right.

No it is not Romers old boat but it has the same engine builder-Carson Brummitt.
No he was not wearing a chute jacket.

You gotta love spelcheck

those speeds are just crazy. You oughta know. One mile in like 20 seconds. Its gotta be a cool feeling. Probably getting a bit twitchy. Chute jackets are good and they can be bad too. I wuz just currious.

I do not know what all white boat u are talking about

Must have a foot throttle

Nope

]NO REGRET $[/QUOTE]wow. Got his hands full at the end of that. Total balls

watch how fast the bouy on the right (his left) goes by when his hands are full

Please keep in mind PD started this thread, he knows everything & is never wrong so no sense even posting in his threads, just read & enjoy!

Take my advice it will save you plenty of grief!,

No SERIOUSLY!

Gee sorry, I admitted my mistake!! Now for supposedly being a friend that just talked to u an hour ago, I ask-

WTF IS YOUR PROBLEM MAN?!!

Long before any of you were born, there was an endurance circuit that was run with 17 to 20 foot SK style boats. The Salton Sea 500, the Miami 9 hour race, Orange Bowl Regatta, etc etc.

Well, one of the names that was royalty in that series was Brummet. So nice to see the DNA of that family is still doing what they do best, build and provide engines and boats that run at the front of every pack.

Congrats to Carson Brummet, you have done your family proud sir.

Saw it, heard it, and at Camden.

That boat is a BEAST!!!! Far and away a top fan here.

Nice pun.

Maybe you should you try to use it also, SPELLCHECK! :)

This boat sounded 100% badazz at the start. Everyone around me paid close attention when he hammered it. Beautiful boat and some sweet sound.

[QUOTE=the deep;4176730]good catch, my spelling was ok, but grammar was lacking... I'm engineer, great with math, not so much with grammar.... :)

Well.........?

197 again, but it looked like the nose was coming up around the finish line and they had to bring it down.

Yep, that last run they got a little too high...but settled it right back down. They were on the edge.

Running in beast mode for sure. Glad the run went well, would not want to flip in an open canopy boat.

a pass at that speed without incident is an amazing accomplishment.I bet that setup would do 205 downriver. I would love to have half of that horsepower

Yep they said in broadcast that JT told Teague it would have easily went over 200 if he didn't have to back out of it.

but back out they did,something they didn't like and they get to try it another day.smart play.197mph,faster than my buddies plane.
