I personally dont really care who has the faster boat. I cant afford either one. I do enjoy the spirit of competition coming from this. Its kinda like the Ford vs Chevy, Ferrari vs Lambo, etc... Its good for the market and good for the consumer. Remember, the advances made in this stupid quest for whos got the bigger tallywacker will trickle down into the boats that most of us can afford. So I say go for it. And let the fastest boat win.

They'll both have some of Sterlings biggest and finest mills so it should be very much of an even battle. Except for the NOS bottles in Reggie's rig.

I heard today that Fountain sales are booming . And we've all read that OL is sold out for how long?

Not only are Fiore and Fountain fast as all hell, they're damn good marketers.

Whoever wins, I'm enjoying the show fron the cheap seats. :)

Whoever goes out and buys a Fountain based on this is stupid. The Fountain you buy is nothing like the boat Reggie is using. :rolleyes:

Maybe ( just maybe ) nobody gives a crap that you don't.

We're all entitled to our opinion. Just because we don't care about the race, doensn't mean our opinion doesn't count.

...I'm just imaginine the void the will be created in their respcetive boat companies when (not if) someone dies because of all this crap.

I'd be less than honest, though, if I didn't say I enjoy watching these boats go at it.

Thats what Im thinking, Its one thing to have a driver running your product and trying to be the fastest. But to have the CEO's out there, that is putting your money where your mouth is. Enzo never jumped in an F-1 car, And boeng never went for it in a plane. But to have two CEO's talking smack and then getting behind the wheel. This is bigger than most are making it out to be!

It can't be head-to-head. Must be alternate passes.
Plus with the heat and humidity of August, they'll have to make quite a bit more power just to equal the February speeds . . .
