    Yeah, that was on Speed yesterday. It started in Australia but the race yesterday was in Wisconsin.

    He managed to fake out the cameraman a few times. I wonder how the navigator is able to read his course notes with all the water splashing around.

    They used to be on Speedvision all the time. Jet Sprints and Rally are the two things that I missed the most when they ruined my life with Speed Channel.

    Gotta love boats with roll cages.

    This video makes me sad that there are no jet boat dealers near me.

    Come over here and watch some of the docking competitions and such. You'll see 40 foot work boats moving like you never knew a boat like that could move.

    YouTube "sprint boat crashes". There's plenty of reason to need a cage.

    thing to remember with jetboats.. they don't turn unless they are pushing water through the nozzles.. so for him to make some of those manuevers.. he has to add power
