    Jet Sprint Boat Racing

    I have not been near a real race boat in years, but a friend told me about Jet Sprint Boat Racing.
    It started in New Zealand.
    He attended an event in Richland Washington.
    Looks pretty cool and might even get me out of retirement!
    The courses are dug canals and only cover a few acres of land. The water is only a couple of feet deep and a track can be put in away from a large body of water.
    X it out and let me know what you think!
    It uses small block chevies and reminds me of a water based Super Modified stock car race.

    Jet Races

    Velox have you ever seen the shallow water jet river races? I like the jet sprints but this you gotta see. Go to " You Tube" and check out some of the race vids. Type in jet boat as your search and look for the Rapid Runner, Gold Cup and Whitecourt river race clips. I think you will like them. I don't really know how to link web sites or I would.
