I'm at a loss as to why that limited was on the water with the tunnels to begin with. On the oval course, the limited hull had such an advantage it was totally unfair. Now if the boats had been on a standard "M" course the tunnels also run on, that limited would have been in a world of trouble
thats how it is in australia and new zealand and they will do it at the griffith cup later this year in november her in oz ,so if they think they have a chance at the cup they will run for it together. it makes for a lot of action
Thanks for the post Roger! Last time I saw tunnel boats run was on the Sacramento River in the late 70's or early 80's- All were open cockpit and looked like they were made from 1/4" ply.V-8 outboards w/ one carb for each Cyl.thats how it is in australia and new zealand and they will do it at the griffith cup later this year in november her in oz ,so if they think they have a chance at the cup they will run for it together. it makes for a lot of action
Well you can see in this video that even at the GPs blistering pace that he may only catch the leader at the very end which would have made for a awesome finish. I think it puts on a good show. I think the GP was actually the underdog in this clip as the F1s get such a big jump on him before he can even get up to speed. The lead boat was probably already coming around the last turn to enter the straight-away to complete is his lap before the GP even hit full speed down that back straight. But still fun to watch.
