With some very crude editing software and lack of computer skills on my part this is how it turned out! The camera is a little $160 deal you can buy at hobby people or most local motorcycle shops. It just suctions on push the button and go. Looks like Ron needs a little more side support in the seat but he wont give up the suspension seat. oh well. Enjoy
We have some more tuning on the setup to do but its a great start. That picture is really cool, Ron got crossed up in a couple wakes and launched the boat but it settled really well.
John, set your sons boat up to race and come on and join us.
As far as the seat goes its a full suspension seat which saves my back but does tend to bounce abit. I think if I had a dead pedal to push against I wound probably bounce less.
78 SW I finished up 3rd for the weekend. I'm only running a 427 at a fuzz over 80. And It is like a cruise down the river, except its safer when you know the guys around you.
If he won that race I think a new nick name would be appropriate something like "One Arm Bandit". Actually, the video is pretty funny he makes it look like he's just cruising down the river.
I know first hand how nice those seats are for your back, I have two of the Super Seats in my 8100 F100, but I think you could use a little more lateral support. I know the seat I have in the Sanger is real nice, it supports me all the way down past mid thigh. The pedal helps a ton too. Davey B makes some real sweet seats, custom fit to the driver. I sat in one of those seats Mouzer has a pic of today at the shop and I don't like it personally. Some people swear by them.
I do know how much fun it is out there, not sure if we will ever make it back out. This whole ordeal has been quite rough on me and the family.

After racing with you at Puddingstone, I was looking forward to a season of side by side excitment on the coarse.
Hope you get all that salvage stuff settled and behide you soon.
