slight mishap, Talbot flipped, but they were quick to get out of their canopy.

Glad everyone is OK.

this was my first year attending the Michigan city race. I have to say it is hands down the best all around event. The town does a great job promoting the event. The fans are awesome, very friendly, and really come out to support the entire event. Its a shame more of the cities that host races are not as involved or excited as Michigan city

Ryan, what is your opinion on that incident?

Talbot race boat is now at Grants Signature Racing.

Everyone working hard to get this race boat back in action.

Powerhead is off, pan is off, lowers are off. I guess inspecting every part of the machinery and hull for a quick return to the circuit. Not sure when though. The next SBI race is on Sept 25-27 at Clearwater.

Best of luck to both teams hopefully the damage was not that bad to either boat and they will be ready to do battle again in Clearwater. They had an amazing race going on.

It was. I launched in New Buffalo Friday night around 6pm. Loaded up all our gear in the boat, the Mrs packed like we were gonna be living on the boat for a month, let alone a weekend. Ran from New Buffalo to Michigan city, and it was rough! The wind was howling out the northeast pretty good. When I was launching, a guy came in with a center console, the fact he was soaked head to toe, might have been a good clue as to what was in store for our ride. lol, but it was good times.

Tell me about it. Checking that beast out was better than Viagra. They should have put a sign on it that says "warning, erection may last longer than 4 hours"
