Each
summer, thousands of spectators at poker runs all over North
America line the shores and docks, awestruck by the sights
and sounds of exotic, super-fast performance boats eager
to unleash their raw horsepower. For spectators and participants
alike, the display of water warriors is nothing short of
dazzling. Boasting custom graphics that cost thousands of
dollars, each boat carries its owner's unique signature.
Even the names scream power! Ruthless, Wild Thing, Let's
Rock, Vavoom, Cardiac Arrest, Adrenalin, Smoke This!...the
list is endless and the number of manufacturers who have
joined the ranks of poker run converts is growing every
day.
In fact, while names like Skater, Fountain, Cigarette and
Scarab (to name just a few) continue to dominate the race
scene, they and other builders also maintain a large presence
on the poker run circuit. For some, like Donzi, poker runs
have become their major focus.
Besides the fact that these fast, fun-filled weekend events
have mushroomed (and I firmly believe will continue their
tremendous growth), there's no denying the obvious. Poker
runs are a phenomenal way for individuals or families to
enjoy the best qualities inherent in racing and pleasure
boating.
When you add the fact that a production poker run boat can
also be raced in Factory Class or APBA's new Outlaw Performance
Classes, you've got the world's best formula for fun.
Speaking of fun, don't miss Poker Runs America's Poker Run
and Shootout in St. Louis, MO - August 18-20. Call 1-800-354-9145.
It'll be spectacular!
