You think the 368 that JT was throttling didn't have big power? Just sayin'......... And I love the late model Skaters - my 30 is a flat-deck - just cool to see those guys bringin' it old school!

No doubt Sam, the combination of Garth and Jim is badass.........just like when Chip and Joe won the event a few years back. Most people have no clue what it takes to run those #s in those boats. That 200 mark is hallowed ground on water........

Seeing that all white old school skater run 192 was the highlight of the day! That was a bad ass no bull**** balls to the wall run! Too bad A.E. was dq'd, I'm really curious what it could do if it had unlimited room to run...? Btw, i never saw Tyler Crocket run, did he make a pass? And what did Parvey lay down in the Black Thunder? Couldnt hear it the the radio.

Dale what 368 you talking about that JT throttled? The Bacardi boat is a stock 36, just a flat deck

Crockett ran 114, AEG as I am sure you saw ran a DQ'ED 217, and yes...that white skater us a BEAST!!

To clarify, JT was not at the shootout. They run for AE stands as of this morning and I agree with Dale. To make a run like they did in a 36 Classic Deck is awesome. Sure it takes HP but there are other boats out there with big HP not getting close to those speeds. In speaking with Jim they have spent countless hours setting up the boat to run those speeds.
You cannot accomplish that without a lot of knowledge, patience and $$$. Congratulations to them for representing Skater Nation!!!!!

Also let's not forget Skater brother Tom Kennedy at 120mph intitial run in his new 28 at 120mph either!

Impressive speeds by all those involved. Has anyone ever beat the 224 MPH run that MY WAY run a few years ago ?
Is that speed still a record ?

Jupiter Sunsation

Nope......244 is the new big number to beat!

I think the Black Thunder went 151 and looked good running

Flight club definitely has some power under the hatch , man it sounded serious

Hoping for another day of speed
