Mike should think about his new baby 1# before thinking about this run.

God speed

Now this is inshore powerboat racing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey wouldn't it be cool if they set up a kilo run inthe OCEAN!!!!

They could call it an offshore powerboat race.

I bet there would be some KILLER photos of a race like that.

just an idea.

Good luck to mike , innovators and inventers and explorers are all laughed at ,chided and naysayed before they become heros.....ask reggie he'll tell ya

Well if OL does indeed make a run and set a new record before the Miami show,I sure hope they can do better than the $5.00 black peel & stick numbers this time. If they do make an attempt and fail, will we hear about that, or will it just be a 'test run'?

What a little weasel to try to do this without inviting the competition right before the Miami show.

Shows you his true character.

Who is sanctioning this attempt?

Fountains might lay their racing boats in NC now, you seem informed but i bet they use the mold Skater worked on for 6 months.

Whatever happens there will never be mistaking a Fountain an OL or a Cigarette for that matter.

Especially when you see the beak boats from behind all summer
