is there any watercross racing in manitoba?
ultimate canadian
Currently looking for a place to put on water drags. It would take a lot of interest before any watercross could be put on.

i know lots of people that would come and do it from around here. i think that i am just going to go take my sled on the lake not to far from where i live and just mess around there and get used to turning and stuff.

make sure you tie a rope to it so you can pull it out!!... thumbsup.png

5 to 6 ft is not too bad i guess........i guess it would be a blast to see some of that startin up around here !!
I'd definitely go watch!!

I really want to give it a go, but all the lakes around here, you are looking at 30-40 feet if you are lucky. Lots are 70+. That is a long way down and don't wanna deal with burning up the electronics after the water pressure pushes water into the ECU and shiz.

I would recommend finding a nice little pond it a gravel pit, they are the best cause the water is always calm and clear. Something where the water would be about 3-8ft deep, and that can be accessed from all sides if possible. check out our little spot, make sure you tape up the vents on the clutch side or you might not make it very far( on rev's anyway)
