It’s hard to argue with photographic (and video) evidence; and although the pass was made during an exhibition run after this weekend’s Hydro-Turf Surf & Turf HydroDrags in Polk City, Florida came to a close, Rey Sanchez’s incredible 114 mile per hour run aboard his heavily-modified Yamaha SVHO-powered GPR – named “Boosted Demon” – is easily the coolest thing you’ll see all day.
Waiting until the temperatures dropped down to 88′ degrees, Sanchez and the rest of his Tampa, Florida-based crew (Gameover) came to Polk City to show the world what their monster conversion ski could do. And although Sanchez’s 114mph flight wasn’t counted as an official run (as mentioned), none can deny the physical evidence.
Meanwhile, on the official side of things, the standing world record of 112mph – achieved by Maikel Gonzalez on the “Blue Zone” CRT GPRXP – was reset by Gonzalez in the Unlimited Speed Alley, breaking their on record of 112 mph by .1. Understandably, to have Sanchez reset the world record would require Boosted Demon to compete in the Unlimited Speed Alley against Gonzalez, which is something we all would like to see.
To your right and below, you’ll see the documentation of Sanchez’s 114mph pass via GPS shown both via photograph and video. We found this video and photographs shared by Julio Paula, with all rights to the respective authors:

Woohoooo glad i made it on here!!! Happy you guys enjoyed the pictures and videos. This jetski ran so smooth and didnt miss a beat. I recorded 2x 114+mph passes back to back which makes it no fluke. This ski is so well built and piloted by one of the best riders ive ever seen on the water. Again from @Jp_racing_inc congrats to the BOOSTED DEMON TEAM!
Yes, what an amazing accomplishment! This machine is truly impressive. Thanks for sharing the pictures and video with the world.
Very impressive Boosted Demon Team, wow, GPR hull too.. Kevin, thank you for consistently providing the best of what this sport has to offer – yet again.. Well Done!
