This is one of my favorite videos. Stayed with one boat and all the camera views really made for a great experience. Thanks for the video.

I can honestly state that I have never seen anything like this in my entire life. Thank you for posting !!

That's awesome you can actually see the air condensing and forming a little cloud right before it's sucked in!

Watching those big turbos 'swapping fog' back and forth was awesome!!

I really enjoyed the race and all the bonus angles. Great job!

Always wanted to know what it was like from this pictorial vantage point, and a piston packer no less. Great video...!

It's always good to see a piston boat. I don't have a preference: piston or turbine, but I enjoy seeing a mix.

The starter motor has it doing 12 knots... o.o -.^

Haven’t watched hydroplane racing in a long time. Didn’t realize the pistons powered boats were competitive with the turbine powered boats. That’s awesome.

I lived in the Seattle area by Sea-Tac airport in the 60s and 70s before turbine hydros were on the scene. It was the best of times.... you could hear the Allison and Merlin powered boats 15-20 miles away from the lake. When they had a 10-boat flying start was really something to see 10 hard chargers heading for the starting line at 150+ mph!

Thanks for the ride Jimmy

more power to be had by re-aligning your turbo intakes. 6:28 shows the vacuum between the 2 turbos, they are starving each other.

Well when you take the latent drag coefficient and compare it to the resonance frequency of the engine you find the critical speed in which the turbo reaches its max turbine induction howl, the buffeting of the air through the intake plenum creates turbulent pockets which reduce volumetric efficiency. Dont even get me started on the compressor stall one might encounter when decelerating from load of the waste gate solenoid is shorted out by water.

Shaft-driven helicopter turbines have more low end power. Past 130mph or so the acceleration suffers heavily. Twin turbos have the upper hand in that department.

my hands are totally sweat!

Ok ok, how much power does a twin turbo Allison like this make? I’ve read that the Rolls Royce Griffon replaced the Allison as the preferred piston engine? What kind of power does the Rolls make?

Oh yeah, that was cool!

question. How much of this is skill and how much is the boat doing the work ?

@meanpumkin

5 жыл бұрын

IMHO it's probably a good mix of both, their isn't as much regulation for boat design and power plants in boat racing as there is in say F1 or NASCAR so the engineers have some more wiggle room but at the end of the day you are still dealing with the unpredictable nature of the water surface which requires a skilled racer to overcome at these speeds

Man...I wish they ALL would go back to the Allison V-12 and or V16’s alike. love the sweet sound of the torque and big V12 motors. Never liked those stupid turbine, especially here in San Diego.

What keeps the water from getting sucked in the turbos

I raced outboard hydros for many, many years, no feeling like flying an outboard!

Is that the turbinator?

Water is not in the turbo?

Direct drive huh?

Isn't it bad when the turbo sucks in too much water.. I know that the air gets hot when compressed, but still doesn't it mess with the ignition?

Excellent video! Possibly might benefit from inlet bell-mouths on those turbos, keep the mixture better regulated.

This video just popped up in my feed. That moment caught my eye too. I had to go back and watch it a few times to figure it out. If you use the keys on your Keyboard, you can go frame by frame. And if you watch, it is nothing but a simple backfire. First on the left bank, then two frames later, on the right bank. Which gives it that double percussive "buh-bump" sound.

How much power are those big turbos squeezing out of that V12?

Its just like the tracks when sprinters are running, if they were to run in their own lane the entire time, the distance traveled is uneven. So since the driver was on the outside, he had to travel the longest, while the other 2 took the shorter turn. Had he been able to take the inside, and not the outside, he would of kept ahead.
