First thread here, these are from the IHBA Nitronationals and Supernationals. Didnt feel like making 2 threads so the pictures are combined. Great fun all weekend. Saw fastest pass ever in a boat, 4.69 @ 263mph. Rediculous. Anyways thanks for taking a look!

Thanks for the comments!

Ya it takes a special breed to "pilot" the top fuel hydros. If you have never been to a dragboat race you must go sometime in your life. Hands down the greatest spectacle in all of motorsports. I've been to NHRA, NASCAR, AMA, ALMS, and plenty of other motorsports events but none of them even come close to dragboats. It's a complete mystery to me why they arent extremely popular.
