Mike Chadwick takes us for a ride in his 1978 Hondo Blown Gas Flat Bottom (5/8 Runner Bottom), named "Ricky Bobby BGF". He has two of these boats with the same paint job, but with slightly different setups. This particular boat runs a1300 horsepower 540ci big block Dart with a 12-71 Mooneyham blower running 116 octane race fuel.
Mike races his boats in the NJBA and ADBA Drag Boat Racing series and I always love shooting him as he's not afraid to stomp the throttle and put some air between him and the water, as you'll see near the end of this video.
Since this wasn't an official event, I didn't shoot it for any magazines. I just went to see my friends, and watch some badass boats make some hot passes. Thanks to Mike for letting me slap a GoPro Camera on the boat.
