Radar runs on my jet ski and drag racing
On Sunday I was riding jet skis with my little brother and we encountered the local boat races. I was playing around the course between their runs and they came over and asked if I wanted to compete in the top speed challenge, so I said hell yeah I do! Signed the waiver and ended up being 3rd fastest overall (fastest jet ski too but I was the only person competing). They want me to play with them again next week at their race in Parkertown.
Here's me playing with an 80 mph race boat. It's a 1/4 mile course and we were moving about 30-35, and both hit it when we hit the first set of buoys. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s5nAK...eature=related Me vs. race boat http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j-lag...eature=related Me vs. race boat round 2 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h5fjr...eature=related me on a solo top speed run http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cFz7q...eature=related Video of the garvey that I raced doing a solo run http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...DSCN0784-1.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...DSCN0763-1.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...y/DSCN0779.jpg This sucker weighs 210 lbs and has a worked 25 hp outboard, did 64 mph all day long. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...y/DSCN1126.jpg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nAvnkAtodrA&NR=1 Video of one of its runs |
Badass man. Friggen jet skis are the crotch rockets of the water :lol:

And yeahhhh they own the waters. I'm working with the club do start a jet ski class for the roundy round courses with my jet ski club :lol: |
Busa's are turbo?
|
I can't imagine going that fast on the water; the most I've ever been was high 40s and that was down by LBI and I nearly shat myself then.
Looks killer and like a freaking BLAST. Was that pull a 30-65? Or did you get it up higher than that in that short bit? Get a GoPro and a VBox on that bitch! Skip the concert, meet us in AC that weekend :lol: |

And no way that concert is going to be epic...change your AC trip time and I'll jet ski down south again. |
I wouldn't mind seeing your jet ski against a buddy's 95 eliminator boat... Blown 502 that makes something around 710 hp. :D

And it'd be a good race until 65-70 and he'd blow by after that. I have a few mods that I'm hoping to get done this winter that should push it to a legit 75 mph on GPS, not just on optimistic radar. |
pulley,longtubes & chummmma tune should get you past that boat

I was wondering if you saw about the radar runs they were doing. I didn't go down last weekend, but the other club is racing at the Barnegat public docks this Sunday so I plan on heading down for that.

I actually couldn't find the ECBRCNJ guys in the bay near Waretown so I wanted to explore Oyster Creek since I've never been in it and happened to find them! |
Come to the river... My ski is only a two stroke but I wouldnt mind running for a free lunch at Curtains... I love eating for free!

My 60 mph 2 stroke would surely lose. Don't remember how fast your turbo ski was but I don't feel putting mine on a trailer and drive across the state to go ride in some boring flatwater :lol:. Come over by Jen's parents house and I'll race you for free lunch though :nod: [edit] I'm hoping to have my first round of mods in by this winter but I probably still won't beat you |
I dont have a turbo.. Just a N/A 2 stroke.. Our boring flatwater is huch easier on the equipment. I wouldnt exactly call it boring though.. Many twisty shallow channels that you have to run on plane to keep from running aground gets interesting.. Geat places with zero wake to find out what your stuff really does. Barges that make 6-8 foot wake come by three times a day. We also have a few float up bars that have great food and drinks!. Best part, NO SAND or SALT!! You are welcome any time.. I have run out of people to ride with, they all complain its too hard to keep up! The only thing that makes me stop is when my back starts to lock up!!

you got a cheater system in yours.
