Default JBS Turbine DEMOLISHED BY PISTON POWER

JBS (Just Be Silent) self proclaimed god off offshore boats got hammered by Local Havasu favorite Chip Romer in his 38 Skater 186 piston rocket. LOTO KING of the Lake Dave Scott then Buried the "too quiet" turbine with a blistering 208 mph pass.

JBS do yourself a favor and go back to the race course and leave the Lakes to the real PRO"S

Havasu Rocks!!

Again-another brainless post by a self proclaimed OSO ***.

Everyone talks about turbine power like it's some kind of huge advantage.piston boats are just as fast if not faster-like anything else-it's power vs reliability.I didn't see any of these drag boats do anything more than 1 run-that's how long they last.we could do passes all weekend long if we wanted and then some.
Shootouts are fun but they don't reflect any kind of top end speed-just what can be done in 1 mile.let's see some Havasu "power" hang in the ocean for 100 miles-it's never going to happen.
Right now JBS is "the king of Havasu"

Just a quick question for all your contradictions-
You say it "takes no skill" to do a Shootout-then you say leave it to the pros-which is it?
Just curious

WTF??? Are you serious? While I may not agree with some of Jeff's ethics or his post's... what's your angle here? Turbine power on the race course is way different that what you think you saw at the shootout. While David had an awesome run... very impressive to say the least, I am pretty sure his motors wouldn't a race. By no means is this the truth, purely speculation as I have no idea what he is actually running other than what I've heard.

Back to my point...I just don't understand why you and others continually bash Jeff. How about you pop you head out of your a$$ and contribute something useful or keep your worthless post's to yourself? Just my two cents....

BTW, from reviewing your other post's, it seems that you are definetly out to rattle some cages... a real keyboard tough guy.... what is it with you west coast guys???? LOL You guys are funny....

Is this the same boat that sat on the trailer at Cumberland last weekend because it was broken and couldn't get parts to get it fixed?

That was funny...

But on the flip side... They do run the $hit out of that boat for sure at the races.... which leads to breakages of all sorts...
