The advantage was you could run the motor higher and that was better for shallow water. The boats also got on plane quicker and were faster. When they ex... |

One thing is very noticeable about some of tunnels is the motor appears to be too high for it to pickup water for cooling. On some of the boats the motor picks up water from the spray off the sponsons inside the tunnel. That water hits the sides on the gearcase. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dS25H... |

We raced in Sport C OPC CBF when the class was introduced in Canada in 1992. It was a good class for newbies wanting to try racing. Commercial stock 30-40 hp motors. The class still races today in the USA but not in Canada. In the Twin City area they race small tunnels and overseas small tunnels are... |

We began racing in APR in 2003. It was our first time racing in SST 60 class anywhere. we were told by other Canadian racers that we would get an ass kicking by them and be prepared to be lapped by the top 7 to 10 boats. Also be prepared for the”LuckyDog” inspection. They always inspect the top 3 bo... |
