was a BLAST!  I give it a 10 outta 10 weekend.  $25 for two all day events is a bargain.  The $2.75 beers were not

One thing describes drag boats.  LOUD.  The noise in the pits at a Nascar race pale in comparasion.

Plus, the boat were killer fast.  The different classes of the boat were based on time.  With a +13.00 being the slowest boats (about 80 mph in the 1/4 mile).  The fastest were the top fuel hydro boats in the -6.00 class.  The winner ran a 4.7439, a whopping 252.94 mph in the 1/4 mile.  Amazing.

Since the race was on the Savannah River in Augusta, there was also a South Carolina lane, and a Georgia lane.  To my wallets dismay, the Georgia lane always seemed a bit quicker.

If you have an open weekend this time next year, I highly recomemd this event.  Great race fans and good times.
