    Gas Cat breaks 100

    I know this isn't isn't electric related but think it's still worth sharing :

    Using my GPS calibrated eyeballs it seems to be the the slowest 100 Mph boat ever......just my opinion...others may have different opinions.

        Looking good Mr. Duarte!

        Wally has been working on the IMPBA cat records and holds both LSG 27 & 36 records in the +90s.

        Put her away until you can get her back to Flint or Portersville!

        Nice work!

          That's pretty nice, I certainly give it 100. And what a nice spot to run.

            Yes from 32 seconds in to 35 seconds certainly looks good enough for 100 mph to me.

                The boat only looks slow partly due to its size and the exhaust note makes it sound slow. Lots of torque with a big wheel and in the right hands it is capable.

                  I've seen quite a few videos of Wally's sprint cats, fast as hell and incredibly stable. Congrats.
