when stopping after a pass is when all the trouble starts...when they say 6000 hp thats bull chit..if a rail they can generate up to 10000 hp,,now with all that hp getting thrown around it makes the boat nose dive than all hell brakes loose..

i was into drag boats for years,as a owner&driver,and later as an owner,the late john hass was a friend of mine,he died in a crash driving the top fuel hydro [speed sport special].it takes a special person to drive a top fuel hydro,so my answer is,NO, NEVER, way to dangerous,but for the few that do pilot these things,the thrill must be amazing.

A friend of mine had a 20ft flat bottom jet boat with an absolutely evil big block ford motorthat he let me drive once. That was the scariest boat ride I ever took I did not feel like I had any control at all, That said NO I would not drive a tfh but I will commend those extremely brave people who do. Happy Fathers Day All, Randy
