2020 Info & Sponsorship ONTARIO POWER BOAT RACING ASSOCIATION 2020 INFO & SPONSORSHIP Photo by Brian Graham HISTORY OPBRA was created to accommodate dramatic powerboat racing participation and spectator growth. It was also designed to further Canada’s proud powerboat racing heritage—dating back almost 100 years. MISSION: To develop and maintain a reference-standard boat racing organization with the most effective resources available. COMMITMENT: Spectator oriented. Compelling racing. Consistency. Fairness. MODUS OPERANDI: Powerboat racing done right. Contact [email protected] with questions or comments. Check www.opbra.ca for events and rules. WHAT IS IT? Outboard drag boat racing is like automotive drag racing, except it’s 800’ at a time on water. The format is simple, but the action isn’t: Head-to-head racing has winners declared within seconds as boats accelerate harder than supercars or sport bikes with only wind, waves, and undersized cajones to thwart them. Spectators witness a sprint to the finish every time with speeds up to and over 100 mph. T-Boat racing is also a sprint to the finish. However, it takes 5 circuits in whitewater that mimics the spin cycle of a washing machine. Similar to sprint car racing, several boats are on the course at the same time, and things happen quickly when trying to balance a boat on the tip of a pencil in a hurricane. This could be the most entertaining type of racing with speeds up to 80 mph from boats that can almost fit in your back pocket. In addition to racing, there are always plenty of dryland displays, demonstrations, vendors, and food options. Contact [email protected] with questions or comments.

  • Bradshaw's Next Chapter a Police
    Bradshaw’s Next Chapter A police officer of 11 years in Belmont, Calif., Chuck Bradshaw retired from the force in Feb. of 2012 after a pair of shoulder surgeries. The surgeries were so extensive that it forced him to immediately put an end to his sprint car racing days, a tough blow considering he had just finished building two identical sprint cars. But the silver lining in everything was that it opened the door to return to drag racing. Needing to fulfill his continued need for speed even after a pair of surgeries, Bradshaw chose drag racing, and needing to get back in the seat as quickly as possible, Bradshaw chose Frank Hawley’s Drag Racing School. Bradshaw attended the March class in Gainesville, Fla., received his Super Comp license and is now counting down the days to finishing his Top Dragster and going down the track. “I was ready to go racing as soon as I got back,” Bradshaw said. “Going to the school was definitely worth it. “I’ve always loved drag racing. I guess it’s just that need for something that goes fast.” Racing in some degree has been part of Bradshaw’s life for as long as he can remember. The 48-year-old San Carlos, Ca. resident started with street cars as a teenager and then moved to an altered dragster. Before long, Bradshaw was doing drag boat racing, off-road racing in a buggy and eventually the volatile world of sprint car racing. But a pair of shoulder surgeries quickly halted those days.

  • Top Fuel Drag Boat Racing the INSIDE STORY Story and Photos: Dave Wolin
    A Day in the Life (Near LA): Top Fuel Drag Boat Racing THE INSIDE STORY Story and Photos: Dave Wolin The other day Lou Osman, owner of the Speed Sport Top Fuel Hydro* team and a friend of ours for many years, called to let us know that he’d be at the Lucas Oil Drag Boat Series opener at Lake Ming the next weekend. Lake Ming is a scenic 104 acre man-made lake on the Kern River just east of Bakersfield. Owned and operated by Kern County, it's a great camping and picnic spot that comes alive once a year with the sights and sounds of 10,000 horspower top fuel drag boats, along with a full field of alcohol fueled and gasoline powered boats. Osman and the Speed Sport team have been involved in boat racing for close to 50 years now and have competed in the Top Fuel category for the last 30. And if anyone has this sport dialed in, it’s these guys. The team has 5 hard fought world championships under their belt with adversity to match. They endured a calamitous boat destroying crash a few years back, only to have a tornado destroy their St. Louis area shop the next year, taking no prisoners which included all their racing gear, their trailer and their race boat. Lou and the team took last season off to lobby for shorter distances and lower speeds. And he speaks with experience ... his boat holds the record of 258 mph over 1000 ft., which he believes is way too fast and way too dangerous.
