The aft sponsons are more for floatation as the boat sits waiting to launch. There is some speculation that they may cause some of the front to back rocking the boat suffers from as it runs down the track. This hull is directly designed from a R/C boat, which typically make right turns. On an R/C boat, they are crucial to keeping the tail up in the turns. Watch some of our other videos, and all of the top fuel hydros other than this style "Leap" out of the water, this boat does not.

There is a small parachute that is attached to the back of the boat, that grabs the roostertail and slows them quite quickly.

@vibratingstring11 жыл бұрын
That is interesting. Full-size circuit racing hydros don't need aft sponsons, either, But the design of the fin is really important... Scaling is very tricky with boats because resistance, stability, strength, and vibration all scale differently. So you can't simply scale up or down....you have to adjust stuff...

Hehe. polybun... Sounds like a Lithuanian baker... Did he come here to find the beef? Cuz this video is full of it! Thumbs up to the Redbull of boats, and long life to the select few gifted enough to skip 'er! Anybody wanna start a cash pool to invite the baker over for a show? Hell, I'll throw in the earplugs for FREE! Great vid bro. You don't have to explain yourself to anyone. Action speaks louder than words. (-;

TOXIC ROCKET seems to have a unique hull design. It also seems to stay level when it hooks up, rather than torquing over. But what's the purpose of the aft sponsons? It looks like they are coming into play but why? That seems like a source of drag--isn't she prop riding like all other hydroplanes?

I've never been to a drag race (on land nor a drag boat race), but I bet no matter what catching a 300+ mph dragster or a 250 mph drag boat it's hard to keep a steady shot with any kind of camera. dboatscom, I know you'll have to agree with me on that.

Hey Polybun.....how about you don't watch it. I see you contribute well to KZbin. 1 video posted 4 years ago. The camera is mounted on a still camera when I am shooting stills, and it is turned on way before I am set to shoot. This was before the days of easily editing HiDef video, so I didnt crop the beginning and end out. Kind of ironic it has quarter of a million hits......idiot!

Of course the water has to be "near perfect glass" for these boats to safely race. Does anyone know at what point the race day is called off from too much wind/ripple on the water?
@flatlineheartbeat18518 жыл бұрын
+sunking2001 Actually near perfect glass as you state is NOT ideal.Or so I saw somewhere.They actually have more control with a little chop in the water.
@dboatscom8 жыл бұрын
+sunking2001. Perfect glass makes for great photos, but not the potential for record setting numbers. They do require water with no wakes or rollers. A slight chop on the water is best so that the running surface of the boat doesn't cause any suction.
@sunking20018 жыл бұрын
+dboatscom I understand what you mean. I did write "near perfect"...not "perfect"... describing the water in the race above. I'm wondering at what point is it "too choppy" to race these boats and how it is measured.
@sunking20018 жыл бұрын
+Flatline Heartbeat I described...in my own words that the water in this race...to me...is "near perfect." Perfect water to me is like a sheet of glass. Obviously, the water in this race is not a "sheet of glass." Sheesh!!
