Marble Falls Lakefest 2008 - Day One

We got down and dirty in the pits today interviewing the drivers and crews. We found one racer in particular for the "Ace of Spades" who stood out as a true badass. His boat can whoop ass on any other boat here, but since he doesn't have a safety canopy, they made him throttle his boat down. So imbetween autographing a woman's chest (her husband helped) these dudes work on their water rocket and party like rockstars.

So kick some ass tomorrow Ace of Spades - we'll be in the pit with a followup.




some photos from the pits


and heres a video of the final run of the day - we did get to see a 209 MPH run earlier - this one was hardly badass at 188 mph.



oh and today's "you sure are a candyass" award goes to the dude who entered his jetski in the races today and had a top speed of 39 MPH - after 8 runs. I'm not even going to waste bandwidth to show you the pitiful video.

Hey guys, sounds like you are having fun this weekend...a "little bit" of male bonding going on there? I am sure that this race was thrilling to watch live but I have to say that it is pretty boring to watch a rooster tale of water move across the screen in what appears slow motion compared to the 'badarse aussies" that we have seen down here! Please tell me those aren't photos of your new chest tatts little bro! Have fun and may the best snorer win (speaking of the races going on in your hotel rooms). Love you, Sheri

Slow Motion!? Thats just because your internet connection is pedal powered by wombats!

Snorefest 2008 is pretty much a tie, but I'm sure Big-D will be triumphant.

The tats - yea, thats my butt!
