Just starting those things are very different from normal engines. No HOT starts thank you. 🤒 What I would like to know is how your cooling those turbines. Also are they bypass engines or pure turbine. ? Also are you injecting salt water ? I’m guessing your not. Guessing your carrying clean water.
@Oldsmob455 Well that's how the big offshore raceboats have to be driven; a driver and a throttleman. It's too much for one person to drive and throttle at the same time at the speeds they run.
At what point of the turbine engine is the water injected? And is it just a fine mist (myst) or is it dumped in. Does the water injection also aid in cooling if the EGT's get to high? If you have a lil 13 collecting dust give me a Holla.
awesome video. great to see how much work they have going on in there.
Thanks Geico Boys. That was a really cool vid. Good luck in this years' races. Too bad we don't have Unlimited turbine racing in Europe...
This is just so awesome! Being a racer is not that simply,you need to be as a like a mechanic to understand all thoss dozen of instrument.
another GREAT video!
Nobody now. Sadly she caught fire in June during a practice run in Sarasota. Check out the Cintron boat though, its a turbine
Very Cool! Nicely done On top of keeping track of the systems they have to race the boat at 150+ mph?? Damn!!!
Great vid !!
Who does Miss Geico race? Anyone have a turbine race on youtube...love to see it.
Does anyone know what some guys do for a living to own, not the miss geico, but maybe some other crazy fast speed boat?
