Just watched Madison last night. I remember seeing those boats in the Tri Cities in the early 70s. The water looked like it was exploding when they went into the turns, & your ears would be ringing for hours after the races. I lived a couple of miles from the river & could hear them doing time trials over the lawnmower days before the races. Good ole days. Randy

I remember a movie from about 1980 that had a jet boat chase thru some canals. All boats were either old thunderbird tri hulls, or formulas. The movie was about about a diamond heist. Been trying to find out the name of the movie for years now, any help?

That may be one of the most annoying songs I have ever heard, kind of a funny ending to the video
