That's funny, first thing I thought was, "The rule is keep your foot on the pedal and they should be gone when you get there", Cole Trickle...

Absolutely crazy!!! :poopoo:

Cool video but I love to hear the engine sounds instead of the music but enjoyed watching the close racing. It was great to see Miss Geico, Team U.S.A. at the St. Clair River Classic and the Port Huron/Sarnia International Offshore Powerboat Race.

Donzi ZX 08-15-2013 08:39 PM

Great video! Puts a different perspective on the race when we can see how close you're running at those speeds! Thanks for sharing & HAMMER DOWN!!!

speicher lane 08-15-2013 08:41 PM

Is there a accent stripe on Cintron?

The 1650's are putting on a great show - left Instigator behind just like the chase helo..Keep the video's coming!

tomtbone1993 08-15-2013 08:48 PM

great video....

Cool video, and I love to see that stuff.

But I think you are taking credit for a couple of situations that were out of your control(based on your video)

racing is gambling and you have been lucky, I wish you more luck.:drink:

DMOORE 08-15-2013 10:09 PM

WOW!!! Great vid. Those guys have some very large attachments!!

You guys did a great job of keeping your line. That's very very close to a bad day. Be safe and I love seeing you guys race more boats with your program.

I think a lot more than luck is involved when you're put into the grinder that many times, and you continue to come out the other side intact, time after time.

Were not out there to make friends, were out there to win. When the green flag drops your only friend is your throttleman/driver. You've been there Gino.

Glad you liked the vid guys. Theres plenty more where that came from...

Marc,
Thanks for posting. Any chance you could make the video 30 seconds longer?

Sure Mr. Cintron...I'll replay it for you in clearwater ...this time without the rudder/gearbox issues . :) Tell Herbie to dust off the PSI's

Sounds good. I will relay the message to Herb once he starts taking my calls again.

Excellent video. Feels like you're in the boat!
Plz cut the bump-bump music next time. I wanna hear some internal combustion music!!

Troubling...... None of these boats can make quick evasive maneuvers even with Michael Schumacher on the wheel.... Is this a GPS controlled class where you need every inch or has the Gulf of Mexico become a lot more narrow off Sarasota?

machloosy 08-19-2013 11:24 AM

That is some bada$$ racing!!! And I agree that there is more than luck involved to come out right way up and in the lead time after time. The throttles down pass on the Budweiser boat when it looked like they were coming your way... You must have puckered up!!! :evilb:

Robertjr 08-19-2013 01:00 PM

Awesome! But extremely lucky............................................. .................Rjr.............................. ........................

pstorti 08-19-2013 02:35 PM

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.

AB From Windsor 08-19-2013 02:51 PM

NOW, that is the Music I love to hear!

WOW, there were some very close calls there and I know it is racing but that is just a little to close for comfort.

Interceptor 08-19-2013 02:54 PM

Holy crap in my pants !

If you watch closely, the boat started to slide a little. When it caught we hooked to the left right at Cintron

Quinlan 08-19-2013 03:49 PM

Great Vid!! I want to hear the conversation in the Helmets!!!

LV 08-19-2013 04:02 PM

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.

joshemmick 08-19-2013 10:08 PM

Marc / Scott, Great video!!! Really shows racing can be sketchy at times. Thank you for posting it without music! Keep up the great work! Looking forward to the next episode...

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.

MissGeicoRacing 08-20-2013 07:50 AM


V-bottoms are a hazard to everyone.
now thats funny lol

Jolley 08-20-2013 10:20 AM

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.

Interceptor 08-20-2013 12:39 PM

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 ?
