Excellent video work. Thanks! I feel sorry for race fans across the US and in other countries They never get to see K boats run - only in region 12 Its a real thrill. These are always fun to watch- great races.

Thank you it was so refreshing to be able to enjoy watching the long beach Sprint race without so extremely much commenting,thank it was sheer pleasure to watch!!!👍👍👌

Then the k boats and top fuel started racing there. We we on fiesta island the first race came to town. One if the drag boats blew a motor and parts went every where. After that went to crown point and saw the k boats and drags and hydroplanes. The best and us why I love these boats so much they ran right in front of us. It was so exciting.

Well dang 17:52, apparently they don't have to much emergency floatation material inside of the boats either. Hell only 4-5 feet is still above the water line of a 19-24 foot boat. Forgive my lack of knowledge about this sport. I have absolutely never seen this before. I have seen drag boats that resembles these a great deal. To see these boats cornering almost like F1 Boats is CRAZY SHIT MAN. Lmao

Here is a little information about the boats if you are interested: 51.4 Minimum hull length shall be 17 ft. L.O.A. and the Maximum hull length shall be 20 feet L.O.A. not including cavitation plates. -OR- 51.4.1 When using the optional 21 foot rule, the following rule must be met: Maximum shall be 21 feet excluding cavitation plates and the outer edge of the fl at keel area shall be essentially parallel to the centerline of hull, in the area from the transom to sixty-fi ve (65) inches forward of the transom. In this fl at keel area concavity (hollow) shall not exceed 1/8th inch per foot, as measured from a straight edge, running parallel to the transom in the area from the trailing edges of planing surfaces to sixty-fi ve (65) inches forward of the trailing edges. This shall be from the major trailing edges including cavitation plate(s) excluding projections from cavitation plate. 51.5 Hull must be a flat bottom boat design and conform to the GENERAL RULES FOR INBOARD RUNABOUTS, racing classifcation. 51.6 Stabilizers, wing sections or airfoils may be installed, provided they are used in a horizontal position no wider than the beam of the boat under the areas of stabilizer installation. They may not be adjusted while the boat is in motion nor will they be installed to the rear (aft) of the transom. They shall not be positioned forward of amidships. The leading edges shall be no closer than 24 in. from the top of the inside back of the driver’s seat. The leading edge center line shall not be mounted more than 10 in. above the blower(s), injector(s) or top surfaces of other engine top mountings. They must pass a safety inspection before each race. 51.7 A pre-race safety and technical inspection of all KRR entered boats may be performed by the Inspector prior to any testing, qualifying or heat racing. It is the responsibility of the Inspector, not the liability, to insure that all boats entering the water are legal KRR boats. The inspection must include, but is not limited to, the following: 51.7.1 The general condition of the installation, fiberglass, fuel tank(s) or cell(s), underwater gear including rudder, rudder port, prop wash plate, strut, fins, cavitation plates, prop shaft, and propeller. If any component is found to be marginal, the inspector shall not allow said boat to participate in racing until the violation is repaired. 51.7.2 The supercharger belt(s) or chain(s) must be covered with steel or aluminum, sufficient to contain the belt(s) or chain(s) in the event of failure. Guard must continue down both sides to middle of camshaft area. 51.7.3 The drive line or shaft must be covered with either 1/8” steel or 1/4” of aluminum. 51.7.4 Parachute static lines must attach in a way to keep them free of the injector(s), linkage, drive line, prop shaft, blower belts(s). Parachutes are optional. 51.7.5 Electrical kill or short switch must be used at all times. There shall be a manual fuel shut off switch and a manual electric shut off switch in the safe reach of the driver while the boat is underway. Only mercury type switch or double ball (burglar alarm type) will be accepted. 51.7.6 The engine must be supercharged or turbocharged. Any fuel, any modifications to the engine are allowed. 51.8 Any boat that is involved in an accident, must be inspected immediately afterward, if possible, by the Inspector. The inspector shall document all apparent damage and instruct the owner on the repairs required prior to competing again. Once the boat has been repaired the inspector shall re-inspect and determine if the boat is safe and legal. 51.9 All parts including engines and hulls in their entirety, may be changed at any time, as long as said hull belongs to the same owner prior to that race. 51.10 Prop releases are mandatory on all K-boats at all races. 51.11 Fire retardant driving suit and ballistic pants are required. 51.12 All existing open cockpit KRR boats shall have a maximum cubic inch limit of 470 c.i. The maximum supercharger size allowed shall be a GMC 8-71 design series roots type blower (includes aftermarket replacements). All newly constructed (after 2/2/2006) KRR boats must have registered reinforced cockpits. 51.12.1 The minimum weight limit for all existing open cockpit KRR boats shall be 2250 lbs. (including driver).

Qua da troi

And these drivers and those who design and construct boats seem to know fuck all about thrust, force, torque and more? Unbelievable. Do they know that the power of an engine under brutal torque to spin the propeller forces the boat to lean slightly over to, in this case, left? Watch the video and see how these boats which are single propelled are slightly angled to the left. This is due to the powerful motor exerting brutal torque to the whole drivetrain. In turn it tends to lean the boat slightly to the left. But the stupid part that these wannabe drivers/designed/boat makes, whatever you want to call them, is that the driver is also seated on the left, increasing the weight and further leaning the boats., especially with additional weight such as a canopy and even a big guy weighting 100+ pounds. When a boat is at high speed in a leaned angle, it will not glide easily than a boat that is definitely flat on water. When it turns it responds better on left turn on which the angled side is heavier and turning right while at that left angled position the turn is usually wider and less responsive, especially if the propeller rotates counter clockwise.

Well Mick, get out there and show 'em how it's done! Show those guys who set up these "circle" boats that race only in a "counter" clockwise circle your true genius by showing them how to make that boat properly turn right at speed. I'm sure that they have been perplexed by that issue for decades.

@mickcarson8504

6 жыл бұрын

CPL_in_SoCal Oh yes, I am sure they have perplexed by those issues but remember, dear bro, that, old salts in boat racing retire. It is the new salts who think because old salts have had such outdated design that have actually been poorly improved and had accidents, they think that by doing the same, problem solved. Or, is it? Back in my days of boats and hydraplane drag racing that was the design that manufactures as well as those who made further modifications believed of being the best. But, this is 2015-2017 and counting, yet for an old salt like me, I just shake my head at what I see these days, exactly the same designs of pre 1990. I mean little have race boats changed since I raced in the mid 80's to 98. And, I also built and modified my own boats. However, it is common knowledge on boat design and how it behaves on water at excessive speeds. Plus, I have seen what rear spoilers and parachutes can do to boats. If you watched this video carefully, you can see nose lifts, angled gliding the moment more torque is applied to the prop, especially after going around a curve. You can also see the front deck of these boats being flat and the hull being pointed to the tip of their noses and then just imagine a wing of an aircraft. If I have to give away my expertize on how to make better boats, I'd rather write a book and make some money. The fact that I am motor body designer and having had a stint with GM for a few years, including tests in wind tunnel, before becoming a motor mechanic/engineer of 43 years and getting involved in car and boats racing, I know exactly what I am talking about. However, for people like you, it sounds like I am talking shit. So be it.
