Default OT, but interesting. Jet Sprints???

Wow.

Anyone catch this on Speedvision? Where do I sign up?! I'd be real interested to know what kind of cornering loads they experience. The G forces gotta be up there with F1 cars. Give'em a 100 yard straightaway and they flat "git bizzy" in the acceleration department too. I hope this sport catches on in the U.S. I'd sure pay to see it. Truly amazing.

Those things are insane.

They actually ran at least one race in Richland, WA.

They DO have jet sprint racing stateside?? Cool! These rednecks around here need to park their stupid swamp buggies and get into something with some *speed*!! Well, at least the cajuns have air boats. They're pretty cool too, but nothing compared to jet sprint boats.

I think we had a topic on this not long ago here. They run similar boats in the rapids out west too.
