APBA Powerboat race action at Grass Lake, MI. 2009

This is cool. As calm as a lake may look from shore, I bet those boats are like riding a jackhammer. (Closest I'll likely ever get is... Get this... "Hydro Thunder!" Well, spending an occasional $0.50 while waiting for a movie is fun. "Chum-dinger FTW!") I bet you're also the racer that was posing for photos on Saturday. As for me, I'm that dude wandering around with the camera snapping everything.

Even better in Mute. Next time please leave that dopey "music" off.

@57Fastjeff - You betcha. I ditched the lousy GoPro. So now my videos will have much better sound. No need to try to cover up the crappy sound with "dopey" music. :-)

That's awesome! Set your GoPro to "L" it should cut the noise. I don't know how to limit the vibrations.

Nice footage.

@rolpal619 "I don't know how to limit the vibrations."

Virtualdub (free) and Deshaker Plugin for Virtualdub (also free) are great for this. (Don't believe me? Check out the YouTube videos.) Definitely worth a download at least. Only catch is you have to be on a Windows OS to use those and spend a little time researching and figuring out how to use them. (It's not too hard though.)

Thank you for the compliment. I wish I had the camera on for the second heat. That was a really great heat for me! AND I got bumped into! Would'a made for a great video.
