  10. bocapisces says:

    umm……I missed it, any way i can go back in time?

  11. racing16 says:

    Yeah usually but in Riggins sometimes racers just go home with a trailer. It has happened before and it will eventually happen again.

  12. acelafan123 says:

    DAMN THAT EXPENSIVE! do they eventually get the sunken boat back to usage?

  13. racing16 says:

    Depends on which class your talking about. Some of the motors alone will run in the 15k without the boat.

  14. acelafan123 says:

    how much would 1 of those boats cost? cause if it is expensive they really shouldnt do this since some sink but it makes a hell of a video!

  15. starlionblue says:

  17. racing16 says:

    Hey Thanks Alot! Yeah there’s a lot of people making videos to music these days.

  18. racing16 says:

    You just might be able to sell it at Riggins. Lots of spectators if the weather holds out! I’ve heard of a few boats being sold that way!

    Good Luck!
