Jetsprint Boat Racing 2008 Rnd 1

so tiny and so powerful i want one so bad!

[GT4viper]

These guys must have the best reactive ability on the planet! And big block Chevys are the most incredible engine ever! Please don't talk smack until you've felt it yourself, the feel of a hi po blueprinted 454 shaking every bone to it's core. I've ridden in corvettes cobras vipers and even a Ferrari, nothing compares.

[konarider]

WOW that looks like fun

[AloganRidingCo]

is it just me or does this seem to have many possible bad outcomes? i mean one mess up and your on land, then your boats fucked.

[ringer454]

If you plan on watching, i'd suggest bringing a towel.

[zena2233]

what do you have to build one of those

[czechgangster44]

thats sick! sweetest thing i've seen for a while. I've always wanted one of those boats; small, close to the water, complete control......Do these competitions only happen in New Zealand? I'd go to ones that are in Europe or America.

[sportsfreak192]

[KonaStinkyRid3R]

[davidhillstrom]

how can they turn so sharp you would think they would spin out

[speedboxtv]

the water is sucked in though a grill in the rear base of the boat... which has the effect of sucking the boat onto the water.

The jet nozzel provides the steering so the faster they go the more water gets pumped out the back and the more gets sucked in from the base of the boat.

You should try to see them for yourself, they are amazing to watch - much better in real life than on video!

[davidhillstrom]

what kind engines so these have

[dynoda]

Had a chance to work with the Aussie's here in the US. What a great time thanks so much for the ride guys!! What a rush!!!

[pillockbrain]

Way to go!! Nothing beats the sound of a Big-Block V8 being wound out to the max!! Sweet music...
