Cool! I have been watching these jetboats race for a lot of years, very cool. I got some coverage by Franks Video a while back from the Idaho race. Its a very unforgiving river thats for sure at swell. Lots of these boats hear in Prince George B.C. Steve ford Owner of Ali-Craft has an Eagle race boat and Ive gone out a few times with him on the river{syco} driver lots of fun!. One time we were doing about 60 and he said ya better duck as we headed straght for the toolys! We flew 30 ft in the air threw a bush between two trees with about a foot to spare on either side of us into a back eddy he knew was there but I sure never!! I seen scuff markes on the trees and thats from him rebounding off when he never made it perfictly in the past! Tough boats. Nice link thanks. James

Whipper your right those are some tough boats! I have been in a couple of those races with my father-in-law! It's amazing how good they handle the tough water, Along with how good the corner! I remember riding in my father-in-laws 16ft. sport and turning at full speed and never missing a beat. I think it pulled close to 1-2 g's when he did that! That pretty much got me hooked on it! I think the speed was around 65 mph durning the turn.

One of the coolest boat videos I have seen. Good job on the editing too. Gotta take some big stones to do that type of racing.

Awsome vid, I can't believe you were able to catch the boat going over. That is a nasty section under the bridge. We brought a boat there a couple years ago to run, but we blew a seal on the jet pump seal during testing and were not able to fix it before the race. Now that I look back, it was probably a good thing, we were a rookie team and could have ended up like the guy in the red and white boat!

Hey propster I just recieved even a better copy of the roll-over YOU CAN ACTUALLY SEE RIGHT INTO THE COCKPIT OF THE BOAT!!!!!!!!!!! I'll try and post the video a little later. The video was taken on the rocks at time zone. The boat rolled right under the guys feet!
