How the hell do they remember which way to go?
Thats the navigators job and if Im not mistaken they don't know the pattern thru the course untill shortly before the races start. Alot of skill in getting driver/nav coordination down. Its bad enough in a whitewater race never mind in that hairy 1 min event lol Ever wonder what 1000 Hp was like in a 13 foot boat, there ya go!
Cheers
anyone have any other video clips like this?
Scare the shite right out of you.
Dont be so sure :crossx:
Sick
Again. I've got to see that in person some day
Those boats seem to run really wet. I would guess to keep the handling. Wonder what that boat would do trimed up.
I'm not an expert, but I would guess that if you aired those things out you would never get around that course. Short boat + bow steer is what lets them turn like that.
Bingo

So the navigator finds out the course layout right before they start?!?
Damn I can't even remember where I put my sunglasses half the time.
Are the boats that run the rapids the same as these? They look similar.
sure they are set up for cornering. The question is really what would it be like loosened up in a strieght line. bet they are real quick. How about a diverter that automatically turns down when you turn the wheel and then when you return to center it lifts. Automatic varible diverter. Fast in the streight corners quick.
