Weekend Paradise V Drives New Years Day 2017

Description

[@VA482GG]

My Dad always told me to look around and pay attention at Family reunions. He said the same people you see this year, may not be here next year. He was right. I see 2 people in this video that have passed away since 2017. Rest In Peace. You may be gone, but you live on in our memories thanks to SharpShooter's videos. Thank you !

[@deckert618]

I could just listen to this for hours. :)

[@angelanelajuly2961]

I get tires of music at work and blast this.

[@k1shandmadestuff]

Many, many years ago my dad,Terry Kjeldergaard, raced, at long Beach mostly. He had 2 different Hondo boats. Water skied at Bass Lake, CA every year. Loved your video.

[@alkennedy1124]

Nice green water, don’t get any water in your mouth, nice passes, I see me some good motors, in some really nice boat’s I love this, nice sounds ,thanks BigAl California.

[@retroisticendeavors105]

Just goes to show, V drive guys will find any excuse to get together and run their boats, even if it means running them in a sewage treatment pond!! Great video as usual.

[@ridered7262]

@Frotax Frotax No, It's lake Elsinore in California

[@nebuchadnezzar9641]

U know it’s going to be fast when the engine sits higher than the driver

[@keithshoffner1287]

Great video, I really enjoyed watching. Excellent footage of the baddest shoe in the biz, Mr. Scarlatta.

[@robertcates4066]

Awesome video, lots of fun wasn't it, envious as hell.

[@gutshot300mag]

Seems that white 501 boat, that was “very mello”, just went. No jumping, no bounce or even nosing up, thing just went to light speed with some sweet noise! I’d kill to get a ride with that dude!

[@scottp3287]

I AGREE

[@eltoro6688]

Another memory of mine is the DULCET tones of those Bassani tuned headers!

[@ricsfunvids3321]

Just awesome! just luv these boats.

[@robbyrobinson6005]

Man...nothing like open headers, big motors & blowers on the water. Music to my ears

[@karlschweizer2554]

the guy wearing the green helmet bad ass driving man total respect for you that was bad ass love all of you stay safe all of you

[@soopr38]

That was cool as hell!

[@jackherbert2962]

it was good to see Ron Bolton's (mad dog) number 1 spitfire is still around. it was originally numbered K9, with a Gayland Hill big block chevy, w/blown alcohol.

[@charlestorruella8591]

Loved how green that water was must have been one of those lakes they don't fish at anymore just for speed boating

[@vdrivevideo]

It's a public lake for everybody, but I wouldn't eat any fish out of there.

[@henryhillebrecht9589]

Your vid’s are the best Jerry

[@vdrivevideo]

Thanks Brother!

[@ILIK3HATERZ]

I'd take 1 of these over a wakeboard boat

8:55 you sure can tell a strong runner

[@johnnymac1109]

Gatorade lake nationals-awesome boats!

[@thatchris8395]

Very cool, as always....even considering the green water LOL. In one shot I thought I saw Keppner's Bad Influence Deaver on the ramp...but I see no video video of him running??

[@josephwelch6972]

That red one with the wing is straight Nasty!!

[@jasonshirley1166]

yeah, great stuff, as usual. true indeed, the 501 is bad ass. but then you got Tony driving it. If I was the passenger, I would have worn a diaper.

[@Beltfedshooters]

Dang, that water is green.

[@eltoro6688]

@Vdrivevideo, Thanks for sharing these vids! You're bringin' back many memories for this ol' riverrat! Now That I look back on things , alot of what we were calling "JET" Boats when we were growing up were in reality V-Drive boats. Do they still hold "River Run" races and Ski Races?????

[@vdrivevideo]

Hi Mike, thanks for watching! Yes, there's many types races and boating events that take place yearly. The next big event is the Route 66 Hot Boat and Custom Car show Feb 23rd at Jack Smith Park in Needles. Boats will be making passes during the show.

[@kylestivers4606]

That water looks like pea soup.

[@goodguystu]

I hope nobody got any of that water on themselves.

[@woobykal68]

High powered drag boats with no helmets. Only in America

[@mickcarson8504]

Yep, Carlo. Do that in Australia and you will cop $350 for not wearing a helmet on a race boat above 400 horsepower.

[@robindean5607]

Looks like a lot of fun,I won't to play,I have a nordic flat and a sanger hydro

[@karlschweizer2554]

i just love love it

[@rc-meowdalatteam7621]

Great

[@woobykal68]

Looks like they are in a sewerage farm. Whats with the green water?

[@korndawggy1801]

Normally green water just means there's a lot of algae

[@joevald3]

Those K boats are fast

[@dondavis9249]

Lake smell some more California Lake Elsinore

[@rjaracing1]

Whose that kid with missin teeth....love it bro...missin all mine!!! you get after it bro!!

[@tzon6802]

shouldn't have done the crank bro!!

[@richardtyner8208]

AWESOME LOVE IT

[@litestuf]

Loads of fun without the State Police out to get you. BTW... what is that green water about; It can't be good ?

Tony's boat flat ass moves

[@rickskow8449]

does all that GREEN stuff make you go faster

[@thebeezerguy4285]

i would guess it's the water color... you know, toxic green... :o)

[@rjaracing1]

Tony Scarlotta just a cool guy...

[@mrpisces5844]

Anyone notice how the slime water cleared up a little after the boats stirred it up some...?:)

[@Beltfedshooters]

Great stuff! You need to get a DJI Phantom drone to get some good aerial footage for us!

[@jklivin2007]

algaefest 2017

[@andrewmarshall360]

Some of those trim angles looked suspicious

[@doccyclopz]

Yeah baby, Hydrosteam Destroyers !

[@Joetrout]

The dude with the lime green helmet has no oil pressure because he just ran the green h2o 500!

[@ozbloke74]

29.05 fuck yeah

[@lraknosdunk5724]

im thinkin these supercharfed boats that pulse up and down when ideling have the pressure regulater plumbed in the wrong spot like it should be installed on the return to tank line after carbs or injecters

[@Joetrout]

lrak nosdunk that up and down idling is just blower surge. Has nothing to do with any regulator

[@boats2474]

Yeah, the Fastest and Quickest Maroon Boat and the White #501, ROCK!So radical the engines can't get enough Fuel to Air in at an idle, totally awesome!

The motor is oscillating between a rich and lean condition

[@kevinkraft9654]

nothing like green nutrient rich rooster tails...

[@dicktrickle5352]

Kevin Kraft x2

[@shannonDRAGRACEING]

Is that pee soup and ham....... cuz that’s a great blender you guys are using

[@karlschweizer2554]

its like put her on the trailer or put me in a grave

[@shanes1905]

Where the blown hydro

[@jeffrey9794]

what is wrong with the water ,,where is this polluted lake ,youall need to clean up that is horrible

[@sideskraft]

Appears to be serious algae infestation -- yuck!!

[@zippy39008]

Elsinore.

[@boats2474]

My money's on the Maroon SC (MR throttle the Whole Boat and prop outta the waterwith a High Speed High Pitch prop) over #501 SC, no problem☺

[@angelanelajuly2961]

Yuck, thats some green water

[@fixitnowgaragedoors6463]

nice eh!

[@wrzl1675]

That’s the most disgusting water I’ve ever seen in my life. I would never put that water through my motor

[@assasan1]

lake Elsinore ca

[@mickcarson8504]

I see the water spray being green (4:00). Where are they boating, in a sewerage pond full of shit?

[@bobbyragsdale6071]

Water looks nasty

[@13RACERX]

LOVE " SPOOKY 004" B MFER

[@lraknosdunk5724]

wearing a helmet ?? idont think helmet is a good call with these boats the helmet will catch the water like a parachute and break a neck like nothing maybe a super light wiight carbon fiber cap with a snap away laqtch if it digs the water cant call it scarry hobbie hope everybody has good luck

[@shawnal1965]

LOL..YOU EVER WATCH DRAG BOAT RACING? HELMETS ARE REQUIRED!! I KNOW THESE WEREN'T RACING, BUT SAFETY 1ST.

[@penskepc2374]

Your absolutely right, that's a real concern in powerboat racing.

[@coolhat8517]

Flats with rooster tails? Can some one explain this to me? :)

[@staffyrubber23]

when you hammer down on vdrive thats making big power it will throw a roost before the boat catches up to the prop. my 72 Howard GN will throw a 60-70 foot 7 foot high wall behind it when I lay in it untill I get to about 80.

[@joannnitz2007]
