| DAY TWO |
 |
 |
 |
| |
Pete B. just
getting started Saturday morning! |
Jörg's first pass
of the morning got him a 115.5 MPH run. |
1.947 Seconds =
115.56 MPH |
|
|
|
|
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
| Sigge's boat after
a very short pass made the loudest Boom I have ever heard from a
boat. When he got it in we found the problem! |
It got a little hot
in there!! Sigge's 30150 BK controller was over 300 degrees
when we first temped it. It had a minute to cool down before I
got this shot!! |
Well...
after crashing on day one... Dennis rebuilt his boat and
decided to show us a great aerial show as it flipped again on day 2.
But this is all that was recovered this time! |
Pete also learned
what happens when a Speedo overheats! haha |
|
|
|
|
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
| When Tim decided to
concentrate on his 24 cell boat he gave this hull to Pete.
Well... Pete thought it needed a little inside paint!
LOL |
