What was really impressive about Callahan was the fact I drove by the dry pits about 10 pm, and they had one of the engines hanging from a wrecker over the boat, I didn't think it would run on Sunday. Great job by someone!

We found in testing on Friday that one of the turbines had a fuel system problem The crew replaced the entire fuel system on the turbine in one night. Dropped it into the water the next day and ran 196 mph in the last back straight. I wouldn't trade my crew for anyone in the world. Never say die attitude from every one of them.

We're heading to Smoke on the Water to hopefully bump the Kilo record up over 200 mph.

We'd love to see more turbine boats to show up at the races to make it even more exciting.

I'm really sorry I had to miss it this year. Agreed, it's one of the best races!

Great Super Cat race, all the boats finished with batttles going on through the entire field!All the teams put on a good show.Hopefully Savannah will offer some rough water to level the playing field even more.I would like to see Flowmaster and How Sweet It Is finish up front as a reward for thier perserverance.Hopefully, Hidden Agenda, Cat Can Do and Team Virgin will be joining the fleet soon.
