Default Thunder on the Niagara 2013

Well race fans, were only about 12 hrs away from the start of Thunder on the Niagara 2013! Heading out in the morning and getting a good spot in the 3/4 corner for the races. Nothing quite like the smell of nitromethane in the morning. Last year only a handful of GP50 boats made the trip and the weather was crappy. Looks like 80 degrees and 4 mph wind which should make the river pretty fast for these guys...I will post pics tomorrow night. The 3.0 and 5.0 litre guys put on a good show, but something about a supercharged, nitro drinking 140+ MPH boat just makes your bones quiver.

    I was there 3 yrs ago and its quite the spectacle. This year they're expecting a great turnout with weather to match!
