I personally love the set up of the Key West races. The view from Sunset Pier is phenomenol, as the boats come ripping down the shoreline, and set up for that hard left turn. Racing offshore would suck for a land based observer. See you all down there in a month!!

Or you could fill up during spin-outs.

I feel that a two or three hour race is great. People put there boats in the water, drag the family down there...They want to make it an event a day long affair not an 45/60 minute event...

My opinion, hell i am travelling from Atlanta for the races at least give me more then 60 min...

Wednesday, Friday and Sunday in Key West is a all day event!! In fact it is sensory overload of Offshore Powerboat Racing!!
Have you ever been there???
