I for one wish there were more V race boats than the old fountains. Don't get me wrong I love fountains (Own 2), but can no one come up with something new?

They must have done something right when building those things for them to still be around and winning races.

They did 172 with a lot of space, so less than that would be my guess.

Check out their in cockpit footage on their YT account. The acceleration and speeds around the race course are impressive.
