  • Jollyroger907 keeps battling into day two at Port Angeles, WA. We qualify high but keep having throttle body issues in our brand new LS3 turbo jetsprint boat. Thanks to ‪@Ibex-‬ for the great beach videography & Slippery Pickle for the frightening on-board footage as they sink their boat while still strapped into a 5-point harness!

    That roll bar looks like they could use an upgrade. It got bent up pretty badly. Glad everyone was OK with only minor injuries.. that was a wicked accident.

    In 98’ my friend had sticky throttle issues on his GSXR750.
    It was a bad cable he was too lazy to fix.
    That throttle stuck open on Memorial Day that year and ended him.
    Don’t play with sticky throttles, people.

      @@JollyRoger907 it sure does until it won’t go back to idle and it’s headed for shore. Cleeter needs to help you out with some free stuff. I bet he has more than one used throttle body sitting on the shelf.
      I was watching your starting line launch on the last video. Cleeter needs to help you get a two step working somehow on the boat. Can you imagine how hard that boat would leave if the turbo was full spooled up at the drop of the green flag. That boat would be wicked fast.
      Good luck in the future with the setup.

    So..I paused after you talking about the catch fence and burm..I agree it's dangerous.
    Since it's a dedicated track..how about an emergency 100ft straight shot past the fence that rises to ground level like a boat ramp but sand bottom..skid stop.
    Cross the line and exit as normal for a finish..hit the trap for a dnf..as a way to keep drivers from abusing it for time..
    Just a thought maybe they will consider

    • @JollyRoger907
      @JollyRoger907  Месяц назад

      The perimeter of the main track has a nice upward slope to a setback fence…it’s just this one spot that doesn’t!

    you can pick up bottom end by squeezing down the exhaust housing... (smaller a/r number) that thing looks wicked fast when you get on it... Will push the "delta P" up on the hot side but you are not running it all that hard anyway,,,,

    They need to move the fence back and make it less steep. Add cargo nets to slow them down after they leave the water. Something like the Washington State Ferries have to keep the cars on the deck.
