Maybe. It's about time, the doors at London Road Sittingbourne closed over 8 years ago after all.
40 years is long enough for anyone to be the best.

Many thanks for all your positive comments.

Well done again Bob, mental speeds!
That must be one good hull to get those speeds.

Cool, so if the tacho is accurate and prop pitch is bang on, you saw 8% slip. very cool.

8% slip is an awesome slip number. The hull must be very clean running and the prop smack on to get that number at 100+

the e-tec powered sl250 broke the record today, 121.05mph. Not bad for a stock engine.

Coniston - Video's clips on-line
I've posted a few clips/tasters from this years records week at Coniston.
Coniston Records Week Videos
The weather this year was pretty tough, with a lot of wind and rain, but still there was some breaks with some flat water. The Friday morning gave perfect conditions for about 3 hours with some of the flattest water of the week.
If you were running and want copies of your footage, then e-mail me martin@cumbrialive.tv
I have most of the runs from Monday morning, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday morning, as well as pits footage etc.
The Wednesday clip shows one of Bob's 100+ Mph runs, when things got a little dodgy, the following run was faultless and got the new speed.
Enjoy.
Martin
ps. use the FF tab to skip from one clip to the next. There are four clips one for each day above. If you visit the CumbriaLive.tv site, and click on Ted Walsh's boat you can see other clips from previous years.
Enjoy.
Martin

Well done Bob
Was it your boat I saw around 10:30 this morning heading down the M6, towed by a motorhome?
