1452509 2018-08-09 23:51:00 Well they need to do something, that machine is a death trap at high speeds, it wants to fly, go airborne, that's what it did on the record breaking run that killed Donald Campbell, there is film of it somewhere, the front goes up into the air until the boat is vertical and then there is a huge splash as it breaks up, on the radio Donald says: "I'm gone"!!! zqwerty (97)

.....he was only attempting 300mph, on water .

200++ mph, it takes very little in the way of wake, waves, submerged objects to end in disaster
They are all death traps at 250mph +
