Well in 1984 Rick Frost drove 144 MPH in Windermere with the older style Burgess and a Johnson V8 carb model with 12 inch mid section.
In 1985 came the more powerful fuel injected V8 with 6 inch mid section. In a combination with better boats more than 150 MPH but under 160 MPH.
Ben Robertsons 141 MPH average on one lap is pretty brutal..(1986)

My recollection of the pioneers and guys, who participated in the beginning years of F1 and tunnel outboard racing.
Let me know what you think, and who needs to be included in the list. I did not list guys like; Don Aronow and Fred Kiekhaefer because they were mainly involved with MerCruiser engines. However, I did list guys who initially started with outboards, and then their sporting careers progressed into MerCruiser offshore racing.
