  • Rough enough for you?

    The 24 hour race in France is reputedly the hardest in the world. Take a look and see if you agree......

                  Wow Factor

                  Brings new perspective to the term "...set it up a little loose, and then take it back one notch for top speed!" Crazy driving in obviously very turbulent weather and water conditions. Makes my lower back sore just looking at the pictures... Thanks for the website link, Paul.

                    Holy cow! That's crazy stuff (no pun intended). Makes the traditionally horrible water conditions at our Rochelle (IL) Regatta look like glass!

                      Wow! I think the offshore boats are better off racing in water like that..

                          WOW! Great photos. Looks like a real bad day for those guys.
                          Thanks for sharing the photos.
                          However, with all due respect. That looks like a calm day on Burt and Mullet Lakes. The Top O' Michigan is the world's toughest outboard race.

                            hahahah… that is AWESOME!!! Dive.. Dive.. Dive… amazing. Top O has that sorta stuff for an hour or two… but for 24 hours!! SCREW THAT! Although, sitting in a capsule would help… a little. Those are some great pictures. I would love to “watch” that sometime with a cold beer. Oh wait, do the French have beer? Make that a glass of wine and a French maid.

                              I'm with Josh on this one! Racing should be fun, that water just looks like watch from the beach. Yes, there is water Earl will not race upon!
