I don't know how many of you guys were watching the LOTO shoot out this weekend...but the new outerlimits went over at 180ish mph. The driver and throttleman were injured but it sounds like everyone is going to be ok. http://lakeexpo.com/lake_events/outerli ... ate=dialog https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=9LuxLHigV90 |

X2, just shows you how good the safety gear must be in these boats, I cant imagine how someone would survive a crash like that at those speeds. |

That is insane how it kept gaining altitude it seemed. Glad to hear that they are ok. |

It looks like it went about 125% of its length above the water, so like, what, 60-70 feet? @170+mph? How about Spirit of Qutar goin' 244, holy fcuk, don't pick a race with that guy! |

Sooo, looked at the pics 10am this morning. Closed it up to get to work. Driving home across TO @ 7pm, I come up behind a F'n angled wreck of a monster....boat?...I'm looking at Outerlimits inner guts limping down the road missing an engine, I'm clicking pics and shooting video with steering wheel bt knees down 401. http://i1290.photobucket.com/albums/b53 ... 595451.jpg http://i1290.photobucket.com/albums/b53 ... ef0c98.jpg BTW, I can't beleive drivers race these things wearing polo shirts and shorts, limited safety gear. At least it seems that way when they were pulled out without cut/fire proof suit. First time I've posted pics, not sure if this will work. |

As if!!! That's awesome.. Next year T850 is mandating the use of "outerlimits" t shirts instead of cut suits...clearly they work.. |
