    Looks like big fun, In another life, we raced 8' bath-tub boats. the kids class ran stock 5hp, went 14/15 mph, the junior class ran 9.8 mercs and some Suzuki's, The unlimited bathtubs ran 20ss mercs and yamoto's like in the vid. 50/60 mph with a 90 lb driver.
    Wriggleys gum makes me think of boating, "Double your engines, Double your fun"

    Looks like fun! Reminds me a little of motorcycle racing where you have to shift your weight to get setup on the turns

    Also appears that bumping each other is allowed..."Bumping is racing" !

    cool!

    Too bad it's sped up like a chase scene in an old Godzilla movie. We should send Chaz and Fong over there for a race to the death lol
