Geico VS JBS at LOTO
 
If the JBS boat ever gets completed and makes it to the OSS nationals @ LOTO, will they steal the thunder from GEICO???

Checks in the mail

Ryan Beckley 08-23-2008 05:47 PM

One thing is for sure JBS will have the BADDEST F-650 at the races......

audacity 08-23-2008 09:41 PM

yeah, that thing is nuts!!!... I have never seen anything get attention like that! Its like hooker in a prision you get a take a picture with. No joke.Personally, I dig the JBS 900hp 4 door cady.

Xtremeracing 08-24-2008 10:17 AM

Should make for some interesting racing in KW if all 3 of the Turbine are ready. I know Aqua Mania is working hard to get ready, they should be testing soon. I think we might even see them before KW. Not sure about JBS ??

MOBILEMERCMAN 08-24-2008 11:00 AM

Good luck guys. Make it happen.

Who is working on the JBS boat? In a couple weeks since Biloxi?

Frustrating for sure. Hope to see it soon.

audacity 08-24-2008 11:33 AM

turbine marine...same that is working on aquamania.

Xtremeracing 08-24-2008 02:51 PM

AquaMania should be ready to hit the water any day I know they are working hard to be ready for NY.

BradH 08-25-2008 12:41 AM

Which Geico boat?

JBS 08-25-2008 07:00 PM

JBS turbine extreme
 
JBS here-you know its been fustrating as hell so have so many delays.Everyone and there brother wants to see the boat.Ive just been rolling with the punches.All I can say is-alot of effort has gone into getting all the equipment and its going to blow people away when they see it.We are foaming at the mouth and chomping on the bit for some racing action.Stay tuned and watch out cause here we come.JBS

boater31v 08-29-2008 08:50 PM

No offense to anyone here, but I have to go with Geico just because they have the experience in the class.

Good luck to all, I can't wait for it.

audacity 08-29-2008 09:49 PM

none taken....this class only exists because of geico! because of mr. john haggin!

many question how hard they run the boat with one in the class. we however, do not. they run hard. we look forward to racing. now all we need is a boat!

JBS 08-31-2008 10:39 AM

Jbs
 
Everyone is entiteled to their own opinion.Its going to be a David and Goliath battle of epic proportions.The turbine boats are so fast we will actually be skipping across the curvature of the earth with our lives on the line-its going to be awesome!Anyway-its the old veterans vs. up and coming teams with state of the art equipment.Of coarse I pick JBS racing for the win-I always would or I wouldnt be doing what I do.Best of luck to all teams-see you at the finish line

Dont count out Bob Bulls new piece...hes excited to run against the turbines....

Xtremeracing 08-31-2008 11:01 AM

I heard Bob's boat was running well last wk, alittle more dialing in but still ran great.

MOBILEMERCMAN 08-31-2008 11:17 AM

As awesome as these boats are there hasn't been a need to push them. The limits of competition have not been tested. There is lots of room to elevate lap speeds records and race average speeds records. Given the potential these current records {as recorded by SBI} are not impressive.

How big your balls are may be the limiting factor.

stainless 08-31-2008 12:04 PM

No substitute for seat time !:cool:

ScottB 08-31-2008 02:25 PM

i think Aqua mania will be there as well with their new turbine Mystic

R.P.M. Magazine 08-31-2008 05:18 PM

No problem Extreme but my friends call me Rob :drink:!! I'll post a few more pics of Bob's masterpiece later.

Pete B 08-31-2008 06:22 PM

Seeing the piston boats run agaist the turbines, but with less moving parts, I feel the turbines will prevail, this is why Turbine class needs more than one boat. Should be intresting seeing the out come.

Xtremeracing 08-31-2008 07:24 PM

Sorry Rob i looked quick and thought it was Tony from Byriders post.

Chris, I'm not real sure but I think it was 168 mph... They were having problems with the radar on Saturday with readings coming in around 10 mph under the correct speed. It's a wicked machine for sure. I know if they were my competition I'd be sweating. "profusely".

Pete B 09-02-2008 08:36 PM

Seen the JBS F-650 heading north on 75 in Georgia, last night no boat in tow though> :(

bryanh 09-03-2008 09:05 AM

I would love to see some proofs, I need some for our sponsor.
