In my opinion it is now one of the best runs of the year for spectators! 75 sets of big block power thundering down the lake hits all of the senses. Cool video, but it does not come close to the real thing. For any performance boater, it needs to be on your bucket list!

I've done the run a couple of times with a friend but this year wife and I positioned ourselves on the water in a cove just before the turn at the 19 MM so we could watch/hear the groups go by at speed. Indeed it hit all the senses!

We posted up near the toll bridge to give them a chance to get up and get going. We also figured that while it is not a race, IF anybody was attempting to get to the bridge before others we wanted to catch it. Looking forward to next year and am glad that Brett and Mark keep it alive.
