    I've been a drag race fan since '62... but the boats scare me more! When things go wrong, they can go really wrong!!!

    I do like the fact that the pits are almost like a car show! Much flashier than the over commercialized cars.

    The boats also seem more exotic. A "spaceship-looking" vehicle... going down track flying on a cushion of air... and the only thing controlling them is a prop and three blades in the water!

    I was so impressed by them, that when I got back into model cars about 15 years ago, I scratchbuilt a hydro kit from blueprints, then gave it to a friend to produce for the market. Here are a couple pics...

    (Yes they are models.) :-)~
