That was great ! You are flying on the water ! Very , very nice ; all the hard work and expense is paying off. You and Bean make a great pair in that little rocket ship of a boat
Thats fast. I like watching u drive even more when i know the rotation of the track. The whole time i was left out the gate make a loop come back thru the middle left round the out side to the end left turn round the circle and send it out the back. Just an awesome job.
Been there with headers! Lost one in a 3 hour race! Looking at the rotation earlier in the week and what you said about being like Daytona or Talladega I didn't expect you to be hitting those rollers like that! My boat race crew member experience is with a class where rollers cause us major worries! That hull is sucking them right up it seems! I've had race cars that just wanna go faster all the time. I think your beast is like that!
Still getting some of the new boat bugs worked out, but you are starting to look more in tune with it, maybe time to tighten up your head restraints just a little?
You really need some Aluminum Bracing around the outside of your seats where it wraps around your ears & also you both need a couple of hard rubber pucks on the inside of those seat area near your ears so when your helmets & necks are pushed at 4G or 5G sideways your heads don't move sideways & the seats don't flex sideways, your seats now have around 3 inches of flex sideways, that's enough to snap your neck.
@@JollyRoger907 Yeah that was the reason for fixing the seat as not only your necks nearly snapped off cause you didn't have HANS devices but also your seat's head wrap around bent way too much. The HANS device is not all you need, take a look at Kirkey Racing Seats to understand their head bracing. Cleetus uses them in all his Bristol races & Freedom Factory races now.
I want to start by saying I am a sprint boat fan and a fan of yours in particular. When I am at the races, I try to keep track of the times and quite often the announcer is asleep at the switch so in order to keep track I have to try to see the boat numbers. There in lies the problem. Most of the numbers are either too small to see, in a poor place, or hidden by spray. The numbers that are on the roll cage are too small. Your number is too small and hidden by spray. The good numbers are 27 - 13 - 049. The best numbers are 145 and 285. I wish the rules could be changed for numbers. One other issue I have noticed. If the flag man waits just a little, you won't have time to get to speed before the start lights compared to the boat that gets the flag a bit earlier. The tracks need a light like a drag strip of some other way to take the human element out of it. Keep up the great racing. Sorry this race did not work out.
Went so fast he blew the headers clean off it!!🤘🤘😂😅
Lol 🤟

Outstanding job Erick and Bean. That boat is flat freekin trackin you two. Awesome job.
Yes it is! Thank you
OK!!! That looked sweet!!! You got more for sure when you are ready and need it! What a rush!
There’s more 😉
Hi Eric, the only thing I can say is "WOW " Well done. Looking forward to a win tomorrow, cheers.
Ughhhh

Lol I love it!!!
VERY well done!
You're getting better with every run...
Thank God it was just the header... My heart sank when I heard that knocking!
My heart sank too!!!
Hoping for another "W"! As Always, May God Bless you and yours! 😇
You & me both 😬
Hell yeah Buddy!!!! You can see your comfort level improving as you become more familiar with that new rocket you built !
Getting there! It takes time!
It’s amazing to see how quick that beast turns with very little input. Great job, shipmate🇺🇸 Where can a guy get a T shirt and hat?
It takes more counter-steer than input to start it lol
Looking Good !
Thank you!

Yeah it was a crazy fast rotation!
Damn that beast is running like tomorrow's going to end❤
Right? It’s a beautiful thing
Awesome job, you are looking way more comfortable.
Yes sir, getting there!
Good job! Bettered your time each time! 👍
Bingo ☝️
superb
👍👍✌️
Great time. Boat seems to be going really well. Well done. Know what the G's are like as have a couple of rides in two boats here in Australia 🦘.
It’s pretty intense for sure!
Congratulations
🤟✌️👍
Kinda hard to say anything but DAMMIT man!
Crazy how hard those dig to turn!
They are insane!
You have been doing great enjoy watching you beat Cleetus's time the kid is fast 400 or not.
His boat is fast! It’s fun watching him rip in it!
Just have to say when Tina Navigates she does it with Authority. great runs.
She kills it!
Makes me dizzy just watching.👍👍👍
Lol
That thing has a 44 in it :) Nice runs Eric and Tina
Tune in next video to find out 😬
Let's Go!
🤟✌️👍

Just wear donuts. Might be going HANS devices soon
Looking at the last run again , would it be any good to try to angle the nozzle down just a hair ?
I was kinda wondering the same thing after watching these!
That looked really good.. Boat seems to be running more "wet" than before...? black eye? lol
Just on the hair pin and only if I screw it up. No spray if I nail it lol
So do tell, Where does the name "Bean" derive from?
Childhood nickname. Tina Bean…just kinda flows lol
Maybe try some nordlock washers on your headers.
Might look into those!
@@JollyRoger907 Lots of us run them on the turbo bike headers. They don't come loose.

@@JollyRoger907 Just don't want ya both becoming snap off tools.
@@solarfunction1847 🤣. I need to transition to a HANS device as well.

Great feedback! We saw that on the 285 so we did the same thing with the 360. After this season, I will go full size 907 on my boat too.
One other question. Is Bean your wife?@@JollyRoger907
