i'm not as politically correct as some other people on here, you are driving kind of like an A-hole, but I wasn't there, maybe everybody else was too. What was the excuse for rubbing up to Cintron, because he closed the door on you earlier? All that being said i usually love your videos but the last thing we need is more deaths in this sport. Oh yeah another vote for no music, motors are better
If you watch closely, the boat started to slide a little. When it caught we hooked to the left right at Cintron

Not to mention the spectator boats coming on you guys fast, looks to me like you didnt have much of a choice anyway, it was time to turn, slide or cut somebody off.

I guess I see it, thanks for the explanation, sorry for calling you an A-hole. Maybe you guys (unlimited cats) should have the course to yourselves the V-bottoms are a hazard to everyone.

That was one huge 'hop' at 2:41 .... Glad you didn't go over or get sideways going by Instigator ................ Good luck guy's, stay safe out there ...................

I didn't catch the slide coming out of the corner until you mentioned it and I went back and looked. You can really see it in the slow -mo. Cool vid. Thanks.

Would like to see the same thing on video but from the drivers perspective. With the canopy and small windows can the driver see to the sides as much as the externally mounted Go-Pro ?
