What is the skinny on this event? I did not know that there was something this cool so close to me. Is camping available? Just show up, preregister? What do you need for safety gear to run a boat? I am thinking about dragging my camper and boat down with a bunch of buddies.

Im told RV spots will be very limited, first come type deal. They will try to accomadate, I'm in the same boat. Tent camping area is somewhat open I hear. Call Matt for the skinny, Lineline jacket/
ballistic short required over 96mph classes.

I just talked with Matt on the phone. What a nice guy! Sounds like a really cool and fun event. I am going to be bringing my jet, sounds like some buddies are going to come with and maybe bring their boats as well. One has a hydrostream and the other has a baja.

I have never raced before, so this should be interesting. I think I am going to put a throttle stop on my boat this weekend to slow it down a bunch.
