That just doesn't seem right to me. I guess, if you have unlimited oil money funds you can field a second boat and hire the best throttleman in the business. It's like buying a championship. Go Geico!

I support more boats showing up, but how does the points system work out now for victory? Do both boats have the same amount of points since they are the same team?

No. Per Ed "Smitty" Smith of OPA, the second Victory boat will start on the outside of the pack and only will receive points for that race. They are not transferrable.

Well thats better. They made it sound like they had an advantage with 2 boats. So now I'm on the more boats the better train!
