Should of, could of, would of... Bottom line is... Ask anyone out there running, and they will tell you that the guy in the 35 was flying the nose at an extreme level. Keep in mind this same thing happens in races an they don't flip cause of this. It's not Tonys job (driver of the 41) to make sure the 35 driver knows how to be safe and drive a boat, or better yet give him the talent to do it! There were a few boats that flat out should not have ever been in that first group. Just like I don't deserve to be on a NASCAR track racing just cause I can afford the car! Yes it's that simple folks!

There is also a left hand turn coming up there, I guess Tony is suppose to drive both boats right? 41 did jump the start, but why does 35 just keep going straight... Just a diff in opinions I guess

So is this the same M41 that had to "win" the Florida run too?

BINGO! it seems that he thinks its a race which is always easy to be the first when others think its a poker run. imagine what would have happened at ds if he had just held his line instead of crossing so close in front of the boat next to him

Very fast pleasure boats pushing racing lines and dealing with real racing situations. Getting closed out, traffic, multiple wakes, wash downs, turns and high speed dog legs with NO room for error.

Perspective comes quick.

...you really want to race..

exactly. want to be at the front and prove your the best. people are waiting to let you prove your hearts desire and in a safer manner than at a poker run on a narrow lake criss crossing the channel.
