Have you been to an NJBA race lately? Most of the boats not only run hard, but are very easy to look at. There is no need to put a nice boat in a toilet bowl in the middle of the desert. Lets see all the boys from the south drop their sleds in that comode known as firebird. That water does nothing but damage nice equipment.
Cant be any worse than Elsinore, and we've all see the drunks that tread water in CL cove at any given day during the summer months!
I for one would not get into Firebird's water on my own accord!...hell, I question Surfing anymore!

It was once believed that Charlie Allen's Firebird lake was simply sewage and chemical dump until they determined both sewage and chemicals were far less caustic than that lake's water.
It's easily the worst water you might ever launch any boat into - Great Salt Lake included.

Firebird will kill some parts but wd-40 is your best friend. If you rig a bucket up with a pump and anti freeze you can cycle through the motor.This will help with keep your intake and heads clean and lubed if they are aluminum. And again spray the hell out of it with wd-40. Just like CYCLONE said its the best competition,spectators,and let me add the purse...So you got to do a little extra maintenance,its worth it!!
goback before the lake was put in and what would you see?? 100's of thousands of used old batteries being burried at the landfill that is now the lake. all covered up nice and proper on the reservation land and burried for none to see. It leaches out into the water and attacks everything ..just nasty nasty water.
