Great video, John. I doubt there are too many organizations with as many family teams as we have in OPA.
Off the top of my head:
You and your dad Cat Lite (father & son)
Smitty & Anthony Super V (father & son)
The Lauers class 5 (father & son)
The Jacobs class 6 (father & son)
Anthony & Boomer class 6 (brothers)
My brother & I class 6 (brothers)
The Saris' class 5 (father & son)
The Smiths class 1 (father & son)
The Murks class 6 (father & son)
The Anselmos class 3 (brothers)

I like the way you blast past that dork comin out of the Marina at 5:50. Also would love to know wat Bob said to you a few seconds before.
BTW... Does Bob ever smile?

The convo was something like this:
Me- that patrol boat is right on our line
BT- he'll get the the picture
and sure we joke around some but its mostly serious business in the race boat.

Its simple enough for a wannabe like me but has enough features to accomplish a good video.

BTW, I have heard of GoPro warrantying entire setups from a broken mount or some other failure. Shoot them an email with pics its worth a shot.

If you want Bob to smile, test a 20' bowrider with him while riding shotgun. He'll put it through its paces and then some and give the best commentary you've ever heard.

I love the cockpit camera. Like to see how Bob hammer's the trottle at the start, and how much he comes on/off the trottle throughout the run... He's the best!!
Great job driving John. Looks like your hands were cramping up a little bit at the 6:10 mark, saw you stretch out a little bit......
Great job and I love the tunnel view too..!!!
always nice to have a windshield view too, for next time...

Jt Question
wow thanks everyone for the feedback! Im glad you enjoyed it!
The oil we use in the AMSOIL #77 525EFI's as well as all new engines rolled out of Teague Custom Marine is 15w-50 Dominator. I highly recommend it.
The tunnel camera was the suction mount, with some shrink wrap tape on it for extra insurance. I wanted to test the tunnel view at a smooth water race. So far I haven't lost any cameras I would like to keep it that way LOL
What other angles do you guys want? I'm realizing these things will stay pretty much anywhere... on the transom at the drive/prop? ideas?

Was there any truth to the idea that synthetics contributed to cam lobe wear with roller lifters or was this for solid roller lifters only??
Thanks
