That looks pretty cool. If I recall a GP boat will run around 150plus down the straights.
Have you ever been around that type of boat? They dont have transmissions...you start it, you go.

Yep this true. They are a major handful with a slightest bit of chop. When we would test, the water was glass, the driver wore a helmet, had life jacket with a parachute, and there was always a chase boat.
You can stuff them, or they blow over pretty easy.
They are also made to only turn left at any kind of speed.
But just like anything else, just use wise judgment
