Hi Race Fans,
OSO enables us to be at the forefront of boating technology. This past week a few race teams met up in Fl to dial in thier boats. i was able to snap photos of the newest threat.

After 1hr of actual running time and sorting out minor bugs of water pick-up hight the out of the box boat ran awesome. We met many great folks down in Fl as well, it was great meeting Matt and Julie from Throttle up, their help on selecting the perfect prop was invaluable, Ken Doyle, Jay Muller, Eric Walberg, Willie Ross, Howard, Kurt, they all are just great people. sadly the weather and time didn't allow the bad boy team to really dial the boat in, 05 racing can't come soon enough for this boat! here are some more photos

Very cool boat. My father and a few colleagues are Corvette afficionados, and I have sent some of the pictures their way and to a couple Corvette clubs. They all get a real kick out of the canopy.

RoseBudRacing,

Was Tony, Kurt, Jay and Willie happy with the way the boat performed the first time out???? I know that if there is something that needs to be changed Tony will be getting to work on it ASAP. Really happy to see Tony's BAD BOY POWERBOATS getting the kind of press it deserves, Watch out for the BAD BOYZ in 2005.

Kurt and Tony where very pleased with the way the boat handled and the boats' speed. I don't think i ever saw the two smile as much as they did. :evilb:

Wow that boat has nice classic lines. You guys should paint the hatch white to match the rest. I like it. :cool:

Those pipes are wacky looking!! Are the water dumps right above the exhaust?? Wouldnt they just pour water into the pipe???

TSG, in your pic they are routed back out to an overboard dump...... like my Gladiator. His pic is like a dry pipe that dumps right above the exhaust....

Re: Almost Racing
 
if you look @ post #1 last picture behind the logo you will see the water dumps! This is the most advanced way of setting up exhaust.
