Morten2 Re: Water Rally April 22, 2009 12:32PM Registered: 11/04/2007 Posts: 218 Are there permanent courses in Wa. and Or. ? The water looks muddy and full of silt. The pump housings probably take a beating from the impeller to housing friction as result of the high levels of silt in the water. Please Login or Register to post a reply

Jay Re: Water Rally April 22, 2009 09:28PM Registered: 12/21/2005 Posts: 893 They run 0-60 in like 2.0 and pull 6 or 7 gee in the corners. Unsane. I think they had to shut down the course they had outside Kalama, but there's one over near Pullman somewhere, last I heard.

Jay Re: Water Rally April 25, 2009 04:57PM Registered: 12/21/2005 Posts: 893 I got all jazzed about going for a ride in one of those, but the "WA" location on this website doesn't refer to Washington State; it refers to Western Australia.
