Many years ago I drove an SK drag boat with 650 HP and a Casell v-Drive, and it went 120 mph, and I thought that was fast. These things are actually low-flying aircraft.
Videos don't do these boats Justice. You need to see in person how fast it really is. My boat ran 121.6 mph and getting a big upgrade in power and will run in the 130's. That is freaking fast . I can't imagine the feeling of driving something twice as fast .
Besides the boat was running lie he left the choke on...is it just me or were those spectators not sitting in an ideal viewing area?.. I mean we've all seen them boats get airborne ..idk just looks sketch.
Again people too close to the action, my cousin worked at Irvine lake when that little girl eating a hot dog was cut in half by that pickled fork drag boat , infact his hands had her blood on them when he helped move the boat, GOD BLESS HER AND HER FAMILY for this terrible tragedy people need to be far enough away , remember that air tragedy in reno a few years back again way too close to the action
Why did you start out saying “again?” How far away and how high up do I have to be before I need binoculars? That sounds like a horrible thing that happened to that girl but unfortunately, bad things can happen in racing. And no, I don’t know what happened in Reno?? But I’m sure you’ll tell me
@@christopherH402 ( again) because people are too close to the action and end up being injured or killed , look up the galloping ghost p 51 airplane crash in reno , I want us all to have fun without being killed or injured , to many times I see people being injured and killed when it didn't have to happen , and all im saying is move back a lil farther
To be fair I timed the run at 4.3 seconds, and if the speed was 260mph, the total distance would have to be around 500 metres (0.3 miles) which does seem about right, so they probably are that fast. Not sure why I went to that effort to find out lol

@@christopherH402 That means this shit is bullshit, who the fuck cares about 260 in 10 secs when real boats are going 160 for 40 miles. Better content would be great!
Oh look sweetie, Its the perfect house. Nice and quiet with water access.
Sundays...
Those are the types of boats we use for trolling high-speed Bass here in Nevada
I love racing, dirt, pavement, water...it's all good. Those sprint boats are cool too.
0:24 Epic how the sound needed a bit to reach them, while u could already see they have started.
Also the "YEEEEHAAAA" was the cherry on the cake
My 1967 14' Starcraft with a 1963 40hp Johnson will do that.
I do that with my trolling motor ,hooked to 64 batteries
I got the same setup--maybe I need to bail mine first?
When it fall down a cliff 🤣🤣
Yeah right
I got turbo's on my oars, but it wears my arms out keeping them in the water.

She's fast!! so fast, she'll do a minute in 30 seconds!
😂
We need this back in Augusta GA
The fish there are like...WTF?????
Wow, thats a fast boat! John P.
Hey boy, where you going so fast? The other end of the lake, I heard the Bass are tearing it up. Vroooooooommmmm
Augusta Georgia. Paulies lake side marina
Been there a time or two.
"When your right,You're right"
The secret was they poured Slick 50 on the surface of the water first, ah, ha, ha, ha.
Eddie Hill was the best at this dangerous sport!
Is that an iPod touch
I came here for that comment bravo 🤩
I think it's the new iPhone mini plus
I'm surprised we haven't figured out how to make top fuel airplane drag races lol
We need the boat drags back at Oak Hollow lake in High Point NC !!!!
Besides the boat was running lie he left the choke on...is it just me or were those spectators not sitting in an ideal viewing area?.. I mean we've all seen them boats get airborne ..idk just looks sketch.
The one on the left even got the jump and still lost
I saw that too
Those boats are so insane
A nice quiet and relaxing day out on the water.
That was really only about 100mph😢
Def not 260
So there was a guy from “Deliverance” at the race......😖
Don’t mess with the Zohan. He will catch up 😂
Hope the boat captain doesn't loose control there!
*lose
"Pilot..."
@@deenalaykie5260 🤣
How many G forces did the drivers experience?
I don’t know but I’m sure it’s crazy
Probably GGGGGEEEE all the way there
Ask Eddie Knox
Top Fuel Hydroboats launch harder than their land counterparts and those pull like 5-6G’s
"Yheeeeehaaaaa", that sound you hear when you realised you click the wrong video.

holy moly. i almost became American watching this
That granny had so old iphone, which model it was?
Nice 👍 awesome seating to
Every fish within a mile of that spot is deaf.
Augusta Ga!
It’s Yeeeee Haaaaa!
Yes that's what he said.
Dang. 🎉🎉🎉
This is like being down range at a shooting range
That was a lot of tire smoke...
Always a yee haw guy or woo who gal in the crowd😂😂😂😂😂
- Å fan! 👍
been there when these boats have flipped at speed.
Wow!! Crazy stuff
Completely insane.
Doesn't look even close to 260
I agree

Eeeee hahhhhh !!!
Another 58mph and have a world record.
Bad ass boats
Is this Augusta Georgia
Yeah it is. Sucks they dont have that race here anymore.
seems the technology would transfer to the water speed record as they're pushing 300 mph w/ drag boats 8 years ago.
6 gallons per minute…
You can't turn your back on these machines.
Facing them doesn't help at that speed...
Blink and it's over.
People will never learn how to take a cellphone video.
260 mph hard to believe
What is that thing in red, a kid’s phone
Anybody who has seen one of these boats flip and disintegrate, knows the danger these people taking pictures were in.
That was at marble falls texas
Are you joking or serious? 😂 It was in Aususta, GA
Safety first!
Mighty Chrysler Hemi !
Very cool , but I still prefer concrete to asphalt 1320 WFO
Eddie Hill (first guy to break 5 seconds in the 1/4) got into this after drag racing. He quit drag boating because it scared him too much.
phones were small back then.
that's faster than my t-120r
damn... those phones 😂 memories
he was actually going 236 knots, mph doesnt apply on water.
They should get the Jackass crew, to water ski behind one of these TF Boats, Knoxville would probably do it.
Freaking stupid and stupid is as stupid does
Mantap bos ku kam kenal kaltim hadir🙏🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
extremely deadly
With a little Nitro
LoL Nobody has learned to horizontally video
Race starts @ 25 🤦🏻♂️
Perhaps these things are self limiting, the more global warming, the less air intake and lower horsepower.
This might be the fastest they ever go?
no joke i use to paint these things
No reason for this video to be more than ten seconds long.
That looks like about 80 mph
Oh, America
Been there many times, but alas the economics just can't support the teams coming East any longer!
too close for comfort
Did not look anywhere near that quick.
To bad the people in SC. had it stopped and that is them across the river
Crazy , I would not be standing anywhere past the start line , . Oh and that was not fast ,
Thanks BigAl California.
You’ve never seen drag racing my friend.
Stupid people with their eyes glued to their camera lenses miss the whole event. WTF?
No water burnouts......
😂
That was no 260 mph.
Das warn im Leben keine 416 Km/h😂😂😂😂
Kva je to ... Čolni - ajga ... 👍🚤🛸🚀
little ass iPhone 😭😭😭
that wasn't 260 mph!
Do they care about the fish inside the water? Sad

slow, was definitely not 260mph
260 in 10sec(drag boat) < 160 for 40 miles (388 skater)
What in the hell is that supposed to mean?

Drag racing. Voted most boring to watch Motorsport ever.
I can row faster.
Ain't no 260
Proof?
