Here's a short video (crank it up) and some pictures from yesterday out at Folsom Lake. We were out testing our new F-1 racer and saw some pretty impressive numbers. Thanks again to the whole pit crew (justfloatn', John., frosted tips).

Thanks for your handy camera work. Somehow, and I don't know how, you made the boat sound like it had twin big blocks in the video.:eek: :D
