Jimmmyb are you the guy that the jetboatguru was talking about who raced one in Texas? I was actually gonna buy one once but the guys here told me no way. Why did that one go 11 seconds at 80 mph and slowboats goes 12.5 seconds at 80 mph? Now it goes 90 he says so he is probably going 11.9 seconds now. He said by now it would be running in the 9's. He is not sticking to the plan. I should have done the bet with him. I am sad about that. Everything I know about boat racing i learned from slowboat and thats the damn truth. I knew nothing until I started asking questions and then all of these contradictory answers started flying around and next thing ya know Leon is in the middle of a tornado. It has been fun though following the progress of the slowboat machine. I wish him luck as he is one of the big boys and really i am just jealous of him anyways. Be safe slowboat we love ya, Leon
