Same name it seems but must be a different boat. Xrs/ ITS boxes, -2 sportsmaster lowers. The speedo spent a lot of time between 50-70 Frick, not 100% sure what we were doing in the bigger stuff I was too busy watching for the next wave. I told Vance who owns it that the video is posted so he can correct any information.

Nobody had the stones to keep up let alone overtake you!
Excellent video, thanks for posting.

I was gonna say, pretty brave driving. 70mph in that stuff, no joke.

I wasn't doing 70 in my Formula, 40-45 probably, and I'm still feeling it a few days later.

Thanks to tony at elite for putting on a great event and Thanks for figuring out how to post the video brian! Speeds were between 55 and 70 while running in the rough stuff I believe. Paying more attention to the water at that point but at 55 to 60 is where she starts to free up and go over the top of the waves instead of through and get moving. There was 3 other boats that we all ran together at the start. We were furthest to the outside so you cannot see the other three to our starboard. 38 straight bottom top gun 43 nortec (pace boat) and 47 fountain. We were lucky and had clean water at the front, this run is crazy when 50 boats take off at the same time. It was a great weekend all around!

Videos are actually easier to post now. But I'm sure I just did it accidentally and it won't work next time.

LOL I felt bad for the guy at the start that was directly behind you. Looks like he was trying to get out of your wash and got stuck on your wake.
