Panic Mouse was in the neighborhood of 155MPH and I see that the new 2013 TAF record speed is north of 160???


Was there an era of FUEL flats that were up north of 155MPH???

I have my Don Edwards DRAG BOAT book but Im too lazy to go and look up the numbers... BESIDES, it will be a fun and spirited discussion with different views/perspectives I'm sure...
The era of TFF saw speeds above 170. If I'm not mistaken, the fastest speed in a TFF was set in St. Louis at 176. Where were you Bruce?
