Yeah, over a 100 boats showed plus cars and bikes, not bad for an inaugural event, next year will be off the hook. They added a whole area down at the end for this, and they plan on putting in hook ups and showers in also!.. :good

Needles Marina had a choke hold on the riverfront hook-ups. A lil' competition might bring the prices down a bit.

The Marina did this to themselves when they didn't want us to make passes in front of the place, so Billy went to Topock and the city got wind of that and contacted him and asked what it would take to keep us there, Billy told them and bada bing done deal, pretty cool huh!.. :good

Hey, can't have your cake and eat it too!

Besides, the water gets flatter as you go south anyway...too many knuckleheads up by the bridge.

That's a great video......looks like the water level was pretty good. :good

Nothing like camped out at Lapaz Park, as the daylight got brighter, there was nothing like hearing the first heathy, open header flatbottom firing and making a speed pass on the glass up or down the river.

I remember one early sunday morning my dad and I were sitting on a picnic bench enjoying the calm. We heard something but could not pin point what the sound was. We looked down river to see one of them boat cars cruising up the river. He turned and hit the launch ramp, dropped it in gear and hit the highway. The first think my dad said was, "could you imaigin some joker that got hammerd the night before and waking up to see that and not knowing what he was seeing". About then the silence was broken in fine river fasion as it should!! :good

I'm booked for Needles in a few weeks....too bad they haven't re-opened the riding trails or I'd bring a couple of dirtbikes too.

Guess we could always outlaw it.
