Slowed by the pandemic in 2020, the Sixteen Power V-16 engine project has regained momentum, according to the Detroit company’s Tom Robinson.

The MTI cat will debut on the water during the Lake of the Ozarks Shootout, August 25-30, in Central Missouri, and will compete in the top-speed contest, said Robinson.
