Thanks for sharing. Wish they had come to Lake Mead this year.

[AZJD]

So is that a Fountain sponsored cat I see with the Reliable logo on the side of it?:confused:

[Pete454]

Reggie Fountain III is throttling the boat, and that appears to be part of the deal. the boat ran great led until about lap 10 when Motley Crew got by them great race though.
And I hope we get out to Lake mead agaibut LOTO was a blast as well, and is on again in 2008.

Great pics, thanks.
Doesn't look like you snuck in any party cove time though, or else the pics weren't postable.

[Throttle]

sweet!
:D :D :D

[Not So Fast]

Team CRC sure gets around and seems to win a lot of these things! Do they have another boat now or have they always had mutiples?? The one towards the last shots is a different graphics scheme totally:idea: Good pics, NSF

They have two boats, the one in the first pics has the Mercury 1200's and runs in the extreme class, the second boat runs in the 850 Supercat class, it is the newer of the 2 boats. I am sure in the off season they will get everything dialed in on the boat. The 850 class will grow more in the off season as well.

Thanks for taking the time to post those great shots! We were supposed to head down early Saturday morning, but I slept in after a late night of drinking beer in the garage.

Thanks, I'm sure we will see them dialing in on Havasu as I've watched the bigger one many times over the last couple of years. Always a thrill watching then make a pass or two:D NSF

Watching them walk away from the turbine powered "Miss GEICO" was awesome, Mike Defrees and Jeff Harris know how to run a boat, they are a great team.
Anytime you get a chance to see that boat run have a camera ready, it is fast! Still pix dont do it justice.

[River Lynchmob]

thanks for posting the pics they are sweet.
