Brilliant job perfectly done by heli team. And a great race!!!

[@xtremearmor]

Great coverage by the helicopter. Now that was a freaking boat race.

[@cgriebel1]

Absolutely killer coverage of this race. I had to open my laptop and hit you guys with a like and comment. The close-ups are great! No need for commentary....the vid does the race well. Nice job by the 'choppa pilot as well!!!

[@xinsurance_sports]

Thank you!

[@Damdonzi007]

Hell, yeah. Drive em like you stole em. These guys have no fear. Hittin the first turn like that. Nuckin Futs!! 2 feet apart running at a buck 50. Epic. Awesome coverage. Well, done🔥🔥🔥

[@bryanst.martin7134]

I don't think those helis can do a buck 50.

[@kennyhuskisson2684]

​@@bryanst.martin7134oh yes, they can do 160mph!👍✌️

[@bryanst.martin7134]

Beautiful!!!!!! I love every min of it!!!!!

FANTASTIC helicopter video footage !!!

[@jorisvanhees851]

My son and I saw such a race in Dubai 20 years ago. Great to watch and above every boat a helicopter, as it was life on TV. All the engines were provided by Lamborghini.

[@DameMediaVids]

Wow this is so dope! The water is beautiful, the boats are beautiful, and for goodness sake, someone pay that's chopper pilot and camera man!!! Pilot and cameraman, if your reading this, please start you own KZbin channel describing how you do what you do!!! Love it!

[@Performancetimely513]

The pilot owns xinsurance and the cameraman is his son, both badasses

[@stephenlane2826]

I think the limit per motor in Supercat is way below 3500hp. At least that's what the specs say. Although 3500hp would make for one crazy race. Ha

[@paulcsaszar5824]

Amazing race wow....

[@Cookboy3857]

Nice racing

[@SHADOWMAN86..]

Bad @$$ video thanks i love racing in many forms

[@Smokey-88]

Wow that first corner was a doozy !!

[@67hayden]

Awesome coverage and love to see the big boys rocking it! If you think racing motorcycles is dangerous and expensive race cars. If you think racing cars is dangerous and expensive race BOATS If you think racing boats is dangerous and expensive race airplales If you think racing airplanes is dangerous and expensive race Helicopters..... wait there are no helicopter races! LoL

freaking nuts, i'd be curious to hear what the comms sound like between the crew

Super:))

[@MikeZ32TT]

Nice. love it

[@bryanst.martin7134]

Personally, I would avoid the wake of the boats ahead as the water is moving backwards for a few minutes. Even if it is smoother. The water is rough and very hard at those speeds. (Just try coming off of a ski at 60. Ow!! You bounce a few times. Then you get sucked in for a sudden stop.) But at these speeds, you will spin apart if your body hits the water.

That first turn could have been absolute carnage. 😮

[@Trrenik0kb]

i would give a kidney and ......damn i'm short for this boat. adrenalin on 100%

[@gofastdodge]

And its crazy u can hear those screeeaaming engines even over the choppers choppers...

[@stumbler93]

WOW - awesome racing Speedo would have been nice though

[@gofastdodge]

Im from sarasota, and im sad. They kept changing the race corse over last 20 years, and now its even changed the month.. which is in hurrican season.. loved watching these on Siesta Key.

Dirty Money is one awesome machine and is piloted by guys with balls big enough to “let her eat”!

[@user-bx2rv7lv6m]

Gostei ! E um esporte que não e muito divulgado, não passa na tevelisao ! Sempre achei um esporte de malucos, acho muito perigoso, um esporte na água, as lanchas são muito instáveis, uma provoca marola na outra, a de trás recebe um jato de água em cima ! Só não entendi o sistema de propulsão, não vi nenhum motor de popa nelas ! Muita coragem pilotar essas lanchas nessa velocidade !

[@exoticspeedefy7916]

I thought they would be faster compared to some consumer speed boats that are able to reach 150+

[@bryanst.martin7134]

For how long? That is the test.
