Is the Fountains bottom efficiency just that good?

Well in 19 days there will be another chance.

So the only determining factor of who wins or looses in an offshore race is who builds the hull? I’ll have to let everyone in key west know in a few weeks that horsepower, weight, prop selection, gearing, driver and T-man ability/aggressiveness, ability to stay together etc. has nothing to do with it !

I would agree and if you take that in account, Steve,and Joe should have a huge advantage over AMH Fountain.

the dominatating fountain in that class got caught cheating as well.both owned by same person. so not good comparison And downright pathetic the way they continued their underhanded small-man racing in the new SVL Outerlimits. Fortunately, they were forced to fade away in shame before they went for an unexpected ride in a porta-party. To the point, While these two are obvious losers, It's my opinion that the real loser was Outerlimits. They introduced a beautiful pleasure single engine V, and single engine SVL, only to have their name and reputation tarnished by the magic master and passenger. Fact is, both the Race AND pleasure OL's are Beautiful boats. Wouldn't it be exciting to see the Fountain & OL , with respectable-reputable teams go at it in an actual certified kilo run, with actual equal motors and thorough inspections followed by a day of racing in Key West, (also with actual thorough inspections) ?? |
Kilo's would be great again to see heads run runs from all the teams.
Last kilo I ran was at Fountain yrs ago they had a great set for kilo runs. SBI ran Kilo in conjunction with the race they had in North Carolina |
It's all about the corners. How long are the courses now? 4-4.5 miles. Watch the Fountains, if they do get bent out of shape the fountains recover so fast, where the Outerlimits looks like it's on the verge of spinning out every turn. It would be great to see some Forehand shenanigans with Peter Meyer in the mix. Something about the fishes.

Yes please go to your safe space. Others on here have called you out for being pathetic yourself. Your original response to this thread was you assumed someone was starting a fight. Do your self a favor and learn what words of expression are. They aren’t putting words in ones mouth, big difference. I’ll send you tissues. I never took anything personally or have a anger problem with you. I think you are a piece of work tho. Just like the other guy said, you don’t know his boat- prop size gear ratio etc. So I guess only you are entitled to speak out of your A$$?! Then someone calls you on it and they have an anger issue?! CLOWN!!

Wow! I had respect for you right up until this last comment. You're making yourself look like a jackass on here. Everyone is brand loyal that's what makes this boating crowd fun. Now resorting to name calling on a message board. Silly. You sound almost as dumb as RF3 on facebook.
|
Well at least your edit showed a tad bit more class then your first response.
