Man . . . oh man.

LOVE THIS TIME OF YEAR. . . the secrecy, the intrigue, the PONIES.
Reggie should just go out and set the bar. In a wicked cool 47'er that the World has never seen. Gasping . . . sucking air . . . scrapping the banners.

Hey . . . there's always NEXT year.

the question is does it have the hover conversion yet?

Re: Going fast in "V" in Rhode Island
 

They are already pushing 200 (my team :)). Reggie and Ben were at 183 out of the 177 pass last summer. I have to talk to some people who would have a good inside scoop today. I'll keep you posted with any details.

One more thing. OL is an ubelievable boat and hat's off to Mike, but the records have to be done in the same conditions, etc. to be legit. It is obvious that you can go faster in a 5 mile stretch than a kilo.

Re: Going fast in "V" in Rhode Island
 

Reggie will just have to keep the Washington train bridge open for Michael this year when he goes for the kilo. :D

You know there have been a few problems with the law and guys blowing thru that thing, right? funny story.

Re: Going fast in "V" in Rhode Island
 

Reggie was one of the first boats up when they had the bridge open.Mike was 15th i think when the bridge was closed.I am not taking sides but as you say it should be done in the same conditions this time.

Re: Going fast in "V" in Rhode Island
 

Personally, I think it should be open ended and the people attempting to break the record should say "when". Do it on a certified GPS, same high units. Do it in a mile or 5. Who cares. Fastest is Fastest. I see the #'s as 177, not 171. My .02.
