“We haven't really figured out why the radar guns weren't picking him up a couple of times. It's going so fast and it's so sleek that if it's just not right at the right spot, those guns have a hard time picking him up,” Shootout organizer and Captain Ron’s owner Ron Duggan said. “He put up a great run tying our course record and there may have been a run in there that was even better than that, but we'll never know.”
It is believed that the boat broke the course record, it showed 221mph and 215mph on the gps, those runs were not capured by radar.

BS, I know Bill and it ran 208mph and they where not detuned, it was set up to run fast.....GPS doesn't count or the Skater speed would have been 208 and the Mystic at 218. Offical LOTO speeds.

Hate to even post this because it s a sore subject.. This is why SKATER is not a safe boat.

If Skater is the best boat out there, why would a man with a money no object choose Mystic over a skater?
The QMSF had been searching for partners to come on board for the programme and Sheikh Hassan is confident that the team will have the best package on the water for the start of the new season. "We followed the performances of Mystic Racing and the likes of Miss Geico, JBS Racing, Aqua Mania and My Way and realised that the fastest boats on the circuit were Mystics, so it was natural that we went with an existing proven package."
