DANG! That's some pretty interesting stuff!

I can see why a roll bar would be needed now.

They have sprint boats, with alcohol burning small blocks like those
in sprint cars. They run in canals with tight corners and they
regularly end up rolling over and over on dry land. They have complete
roll cages.

Sound like fun?
From the clip it didn't look like the boats got much damage from the rolls
but hard to tell from a grainy distance.
Look like very tough little boats!
