So who has it??

[white tortilla]

lol ok if you say so. Its even on video. he put the hurt on me pretty good. My boat runs 106, but i have no proof of it with a picture of the gps. But I have proof of it running that fast against a couple of boats that run in the same mph range.

We don't really care how fast they are, we care how quick they are, so thats why alot of "JET BOATERS" are not chiming in.

x2 futs is prolly the fastest to post so far.

I was hoping he was gonna keep it so I could try to give him hell! I really dont think he gave it all it was worth when He and I ran at the CP deal! Fess up tim, I have that vid on my facebook, dont know how to drag it here or I would, the comment about you coming into some rough water was complete BS, I have seen you run through some real junk water and the water in the cove was nothing even close! Why did you really get out of it?
I may be in over my head here, but I think I could put the hurt on that blue beauty! whatcha think? come to yuma this weekend bud! Were good friends, I can totally take being slaughtered by the blue boat! you and I have just about IDENTICAL power! it would be fun!

Ok, to be honest Todd, I let out of it cuz I felt the boat unloading real hard. It popped the limiter a couple times. I allready knew I had something not right. Thats when I discovered the Imp. running out of water.

Your also correct. That water was like glass to me...lol Just didnt want to hurt anything if ya know what i mean.Wish I could make the yuma trip, it always a goooood time. Just not in the cards this year. With no bites on my boat, you will more than likey see it out with me next year and have a crack at it. Im just glad your finally getting after it in your rig. You should have no problems going around me, as you stated we have the same power just at different RPM's
You have a better boat, just needs some TLC in the set up department and your getting it to work good now.

Sadly the season is done and the engine is a week or so from being together. But I might be looking for a ride to the sandbar on Saturday. That reminds me, I need to see if I can stay in the cabin ?

Read the Two speed jet thread and my post at the end of it. What do you think?

[Hass828]

first ride along went 122, then vid of the gps went 123.8
It went 128.6 once but didnt have the vid onboard so 123.8 is best so far.
OH, and yes, this is Marks old stealth with my little engine in it. Its getting an all aluminum 555 with some "big" turbos this winter.

Come on Jon,
You've thrashed a few allnighters before to get that boat on the water !

Of course there's room for Leslie at the house-you might want to call for a room up the street though or you can spoon with one of the other houseguest.
Give me a call.

Thats not what the OP asked for, he said a pic of the GPS .
Anyone can do it at the track with a safety crew. You have to be a little crazy to do at the lake or river.

 

[Ultra Boats]

I tried to post my time slip from the last NJBA race but it would not post so I sent it to Ultra 28 to see if he could get it to post. 7.27 @ 142. If it is so easy to do at the track then everyone would be running these numbers right?

Thanks John D

142! What class? I hope you post some pics of the boat.I know a guy with a blown/carbed deal in the mid 130ish range and was thinking of calling him about this deal,might still,but I think you got him beat in mph and et.

Is there no longer a Top Fuel Jet class? Never see anything here about em.

Mike Miller: Engine builder
" Ran the new vortech blow through engine on the dyno yesterday. It put up some huge numbers. We only got to run it up to 6500 rpm, but it put out 1660 hp and and 1350 ft lbs with 19 lbs of boost. It was well on its way to 1750 plus but pushed out a head gasket. We will be changing gasket types and head studs to something a little stronger. The tune on the motor was pretty soft and a/f numbers were on the rich side but was gaining 40hp per 100 rpm when the gasket let go. This thing will capable of huge power, 2000 is possible with just a few changes. We should be back on the dyno in a few weeks"

I don't recall the cubic inches...but I think the limit is 565". It might be close to that.

The intent of the thread was just to find out who's squirt boat runs the hardest on rdp.. I do tend to agree on the race vs river boats, but honestly when you get to this level their ain't much difference in the boats.. Just where people run them. Lol.

The other intent of the thread is to bring more action to the forum and get guys like yourself to post up.

If we legit have a 142 jetboat on here I'm blown away.. I was thinking 116-120 would be about as fast as it got..

I'm thinking rdp grudge match.. Mow at the next drag event. . Fastest jet vs fastest v drive... Hhhmmmmm

Whatever, might as well send the $ to Kirkman but I doubt that he'd both posting up for a measly 100clams.
But you'll see :monkey: before you find one of these guys running 142 on the river without the safty crew River Dave. And before you guys chime in & say you will too then fine lets see some onboard vid & gps #'s like I posted. Wont happen.
And I will tell you the difference Dave, I drive mine around all over the GD place on pump gas(lake boat). We run'em for many miles. And can still turn up the boost when desired and run damn hard. So before you do this , please set some guidelines, if you are talking pure race only deal I would have remained silent.

 

[RiverDave]

Who has the fastest Jetboat on RDP?

Back it up with a GPS Pic in the boat, and I will give you a 100.00 gift certificate to Jetboat Peformance.

Alright, we'll call it at November 10th.. For anyone that wants to do that small boat shoot out at monster bash in havasu. Their speed slips will be acceptable as well.

Who's got the fastest shit on RDP. 100 bucks for posting a couple of pics.. Shit if someone offered me 100 bucks to make 1 post, I'd register and post it up if I had it.

Hass828, I'm not sure why you seem so dissapointed? I posted in the 1st post, who has the fastest shit on RDP? before anyone posted any slips / gps / etc.. I wrote on their we'd extend the deadline in case anyone wanted to get a radar gun slip at the small boat shoot out.. It would kinda infer that any "legit" proof would work.

I think you're missing that this is just for fun, and not to be taken too seriously..

As for this..

Whatever, might as well send the $ to Kirkman but I doubt that he'd both posting up for a measly 100clams.

I don't know who Kirkman is... I don't understand why anyone wouldn't spend 5 minutes to register to just make a post and get a free 100 clams.. (actually I think it's 200 now.. not sure if JBP doubled it or not) When you think about it that's 1200.00 bucks an hour for doing what? typing a couple of words and posting a pic?

Since my 100 clams was measly though..

What prize would you suggest? (seriously, what prize do you think would interest the jetboat community enough to create a buzz?) I will take it into consideration, and maybe we can up the ante a bit..

You have an ridiculously fast boat, and you should be proud of that.. Even faster when you think about it as just a recreational boat.

Not at all.. If you got the fastest shiznit out there, then I guess you got the fastest shiznit out there.

I had kinda hoped to get some new jetboat members with this... I.E.. All the little pea shooters starting at 70 and working up to 100 before someone broke out the bazooka..

But bazooka off the bat works too.. pretty tough to compete with 142..

Shit I didn't even know there was river jets out there running in the 120's.. I figured about 110 was it unless it was a race boat.
