“The Convention & Visitors Bureaus love us,” Winer said. “We fill the hotels and restaurants, buy gasoline...we are extremely important to these communities on the weekends we are there. We build a street festival around the boat races and give a lot of people reason to come downtown. The local communities and economies truly benefit.” “We see a very good year ahead, even with the economy the way it is,” agreed Ron Polli of the Offshore Super Series 60mm I.D. RACE SPRINGS IN STOCK (OSS), which is based in Toms River, New Jersey, which ran its first race of 2009 in Biloxi, Mississippi, in front of a record crowd of 45,000. At the end of the season, when spectators aren’t shivering in jackets, Polli said crowds on Florida’s beaches can reach 250,000. A total of eight events take the series to Louisiana, Alabama, Missouri, Kentucky, and three stops in Florida, each drawing 25 to 35 boats. The Worlds in Jupiter, Florida, at the end of the season are expected to attract 50 teams. OSS has added five new classes to its existing six for the 2009 season, and is switching over to what Polli described as heat racing. “The boats used to go out and just run an 80- or 100-mile race, came back in, and it was over,” he said. “We can only do this at certain locations where there’s dockage available close to the race course, like Biloxi, but the boats will now go out, run half the distance, come back in, and basically have a two-hour pit stop where they can make various modifications. So instead of running three hour-long races, we’re going to run six half-hour races.” Poker Runs Drawing Racers Many of our contacts told us that poker runs, and other forms of recreational power boating, are among the hottest segments of the marine market. “The guy who used to go and race is more inclined to go to a poker run now,” said Livorsi’s Veronneau, who told us he is seeing some sponsorship coming out Full line of 60mm and 2.50” p.

Putting the Power in Boats The opportunities for engine builders and engine parts suppliers vary across the board, depending on the type of racing. “We have classes that are essentially stock as purchased, and other classes where virtually anything goes,” said the UIM’s Strang. “There are specialist performance engine builders who build engines for both cars and boats.” “Last year, that door was closed, because all of our classes ran Mercury racing engines that are sealed from the factory,” said Polli of the OSS. That door opened this year with the introduction of four new Pro-Am classes, plus a power- to-weight-ratio class, “which allow any engine manufacturer, any drive, any pro- peller. Basically, any propulsion system you want to come up with you can run in those classes now. We finally have the ability to have any engine manufacturer come in and show off their stuff.” Stokes said there absolutely are possibilities for performance automotive engine builders and parts suppliers in this market. “The components utilized in the engine of a drag boat are virtually identi- cal to those used in those of our asphalt counterparts,” she stated. “We make marine-specific manifolds,” said Billy Mitchell at World Products, Ronkonkoma, New York, “but a block is a block and a head is a head, and in terms of those, they’re using the same things in boats that they would in cars.” That’s not to say crossing over from automotive engine building is a simple task. “It’s definitely different,” said Mitchell, whose marine engine customers include Teague Marine, Chief Engines, and Flagship Marine. “What works in a race car does not necessarily work in a marine application. It’s such a brutal environment that you’ve just got to cover all of your bases or it isn’t going to hold up. Even something as simple as an oil pan—if you use a regular automotive oil pan, chances are it’s going to crack,” he said, noting that while most of the parts come from automotive performance suppliers, they’re different versions built for greater strength and durability. 14 Performance Racing Industry | June 2009 All hose ends may look alike, but Fragola Performance Systems has spent years researching, engineering, testing and re-testing to perfect their products.

866.337.2739 FragolaPerformanceSystems.com [email protected] Sea-faring Engines Sunset Racecraft, Lubbock, Texas, builds about 550 drag race engines a year and another 50 to 60 marine engines, used primarily in poker run and other recreational boats. “It’s very different,” said Tracy Dennis, who told us the average marine engine costs at least twice as much as its auto racing coun- terpart. “Whereas the drag engines are 8000-rpm motors that are run for six, seven, eight seconds at a time, these are more endurance type engines that may have to run 6000 or 6500 rpm for 200 hours. “Most of the manufacturers that we have in the performance industry offer marine type pieces...like Callies crank- shafts, which we use in our marine engines,” said Dennis, who also uses Manley components and Brodix heads specifically designed for the marine market. “The cylinder heads, valve equipment, and camshaft technology is all drastically different,” he said. Dennis believes engine builders can make the crossover, however. “There’s an unexplored market over there that needs to be looked at.” For himself, he dabbled in the marine market for a number of years, and then got serious about it four or five years ago when he ended up with a powerboat. “I saw a need in the market,” he said. “I think you need to go out to the lakes and get involved,” Dennis advised. “There are poker runs all across the country, and that’s how I got brought into it. On an off- race weekend, we went to a poker run and got interested in the boats and got to talking to people about how they ran the motors and what not. We basically came back and designed an engine around that. So then we purchased a boat our- selves to try all of this technology on, and we use it for R&D.” If an engine builder isn’t familiar with the marine market, that’s where companies like Hardin Marine come in, according to Price. The company boasts a 200-page catalog of marine products. “We supply the parts that allow a guy to take his stan- dard performance engine and marinize 16 Performance Racing Industry | June 2009 Introducing the Next Generation of Wireless Weighing Solutions from Intercomp

Head and neck restraints and similar safety devices have really become a hot market in the drag boat racing com- munity,” she added. “As performance levels climb, so does the demand for quality performance products that meet the intense demands of marine engine builders and racers,” stated Jesse Powell of Aeromotive, Lenexa, Kansas. “They need quality products that can stand up to harsh condi- tions, and in many cases, performance automotive products are a good fit for the marine market. “What any retailer should look for are proven automotive performance manufacturers that have taken the time to understand the marine market and qualified their products for marine use,” he said. “At Aeromotive, we have taken an entire line of performance automotive products, qualified them for marine use, and even certified them with the US Coast Guard. We changed the coatings to ensure a quality, corrosion-resistant finish. We know that our marine products must meet harsh demands and therefore require even more testing than some of our high- end automotive racing products.” Latham Marine spokeswoman DeMartini also ticked off a long list of automotive performance companies active in this market, including Whipple Superchargers, and said the demand is increasing as the range of engines being used broadens both here and on the international race scene such as in P1. “The door is wide open to a lot more,” she said. z 20 Performance Racing Industry | June 2009 Atech PRI Ad Jun09 4/29/09 11:57 AM Page 1
