Default Racing stuff.....100 mph boats for under $100k, fun video.

For you guys who want a boat that will go fast and is available at a
fairly small initial investment, check out the for sale items he

http://ulhra.org/

Where else you gonna find 100 mph + boats available for well under six
figures?

(May cost a bit more to maintain and run them, of course. Ahem.)

Go down the page of video selections to "Final Heat, Silverdale" (or
similar title) and watch a 19 year old female driver kick some butt!
The races are more competitive this year because the ULHRA passed a
rule that the blown boats can't run in the inside lane. The Silverdale
race is a good example of the resulting changes, the naturally
aspirated boat leaps ahead in the turns and the supercharged boat
overtakes in the straight stretches.
