Onboard JETSPRINT ACTION!!! Sprintboat RACING from New Zealand

Onboard with Si Gibbon and team Novus Autoglass absolutely ripping his Group A jetsprint boat at Wanganui

If there's any people abroad curious: Hanmer Springs is a wee township completely beset with Tourists just under 90 minutes drive from Christchurch, built in the early 1900's around a thermal spring, it's now a massive pool complex with hydroslides, pools for all ages (including nearly 40*c (104*f) pools, and 34/36/38 & cold water) Lovely day out for the family or yourself if your in the region - but a little flooded with tourists (I can say that from my time as a young fella compared to now - 100 people in the pools vs over 1000 now - so the peace and quiet is gone a but depending on the time of day you go)

That was killer. The closest I will ever get the driver's seat. Thanks Eric.

Was our first in person event, based on finding your channel through Cletus. Awesome day out, and interesting to see the different driving styles required for the different classes

That sucker was cookin! I was born in Wanganui & during the summer here in Idaho I run a vintage Hamilton jet on the Snake & Bear Rivers.

Man, nothing like a wide open straight to start things off. Gives that first corner a tad more pucker. 😃

[@somedude4774]

That looks insane, awesome, I've never seen anything like that.

[@chrismadaj8751]

Super cool keep them coming GODSPEED

[@admantis]

Awesome racing content guys! Seen you guys on Cleets channel and followed since then. Keep it coming, love the NZ sprint races, which I could go watch myself Wanganui is only a 5hour drive away

[@keithwicks6828]

Way 😎 cool. Hearing the motor dig through the corners is awesomeness 👌

[@Pumpkin-Brain]

Cool as can be from that vantage point.

[@BenjySparky]

JollyRoger y'all rock! Peace

[@fredericrike5974]

Damn, Eric!! I do dearly love the ride from the roll bar, but that "pump cam" nearly drowned me! Tell me, is that what 1000 hp can do? And his passenger/spotter was chill and on time the whole way. Hope your mid winter schedules level out! FR

[@JollyRoger907]

That ride along was in about 700 HP. Wait till you see a 9” pump tied to 1000HP!

[@davidjohnson8474]
