Some people aren't that bright and don't pay attention, they'll watch without reading.....that should avoid any confusion...

Are we sure it's recent? I saw it posted over on riverdaves after someone said DCB stood for Dave's Custom Buoys.

Yeah, I know people get uptight about crashes and start to speculate....

Unfortunately, you are right.

Heard of a handful of the stepped cigarettes rolling. Not uncommon. Poor design??

Not a bad hull design, just bad drivers.

That is why the Tres Martin course is so important to learn the correct way to drive.

EXAMPLE: Take an average 16 year old kid with learners permit, put him in a Corvette/Ferrari,etc, place on race course and see how long it takes to mess up.

PERFORMANCE vs inexperience, bad things can happen.

Corrected it a little cause I know a few 16 yrs old open wheel racers that would drive the pants off anyone here.
