let me start off by saying that I own a stepped bottom boat, and I certainly don't want to start a bash session against any brand. I find it very interesting that Velocity just upped their own Factory 1 speed record by over 4 1/2 mph, and they did it in Reggie's backyard. It seems that there are viable alternatives to steps, and if you have ever ridden in a Velocity, you would be hard pressed to argue that there's a better handling V-bottom boat.

the velocity guys did a fantastic job. but.....they could not beat the SBI factory 1 kilo record of extreme racing (a fountain). Not taking anything away from the velocity guys because they put on a hell of a show. watching it from the beach it almost looked like they had the mentality of nothing was going to stop them..... I really think that boat has more left in it...it was porposing badly and they still set the APBA record. Congradulations Team Velocity!!!
