if ya'll do it next season lemme know.... i will bring up my stock boat and a mod one if you want to do some head 2 head racing

[spence]

do you change anything on the sled when you run it on water?

[Sanford]

You folks did realize that the snow has melted.

Ya'll should make it more interesting and everyone that races wears a red or yellow helmet. This way when they become "Bob" they alter the course.

Here's your invite................



There's a race in Epping NH. the 6th and the 7th (Columbus Day weekend), this will be the last race of the year,I'll be there, bring your boats up and will see what happens. It's a good time there, they draw around 30,000 to 40,000 spectators for this race.

Yes most of the sleds are set to run just on the water, if you need more info on water X racing go to http://www.sledfreak.com/forum/index.php? and go to the Water X race section of the forums, there are alot of racers that use the site and are very helpfully with setting up a sled to race on the water.

Sure we realize that the snow has melted thats why where racin on the water :spank: .

I quess with your second coment, that your poking fun at the guys that are sinking, well thats part of the racing if ya don't have your sled set up right.
Have you ever tryed ovaling a sled, it's not as ez as it looks.

[Sanford]

Have you ever tryed ovaling a sled, it's not as ez as it looks.Oh yeah, try racing a SuperJet up the face of a mountain.

Besides, I don't ovulate.

[Scorn800]

Do they still have a water race at the Flatrock Inn?
I like to ride my sled on snow :beerchug:

[the only couch rider]

Soon as i get a chance to go thorugh the video tape.

[Late_Braker]

It says " Pics and Vids Share Multimedia, whatever form it is "

It dosn't say it has to float.

So when they sink is there a rope hooked to it so it can be pulled back up? I would hate to be the dudes that sink then gets used as a buoy.

Thanks for posting looks fun.

Yes there's a rope with a small float on it and they release it when they sink.

Here's a pic of a 800 mod, between the tach. and where the windshield would be you can see this rope and float and it is used to pull them out of the water.

You'ed be amazed how quick after they get them out of the water they can have them ready to go again, 99% of these sled are just set up to race on the water.
