Zudnic, Have you been out to any of the races @ horn rapids? I heard they put in a new water track. I used to ride out there and also run the karts.

Nope I've tried but never get the time to visit my friend who lives in Richland that does go. A few months ago some local drivers claimed to have added Wenatchee as a venue, along with unlimited hydro's. Seattle's Hydroplane & Raceboat Museum runs some of their collection on the Columbia which I can see and hear from my house near Wenatchee. So thats about as close to racing as I get around here......... The Museum is also putting on an exibition/race in my area so I'll defiently go to that.

I like any form of boat racing getting popular here in around Washington State, cause give future ammo for getting some Offshore going in the future.........
