DRIVING AND RACING TIPS FROM 12-TIME
NATIONAL & WORLD RACING CHAMPION
MIKE “GRIMRACER” ZABOROWSKI
GrimRacer Says: Don’t just drive your TS3
around, drive your TS3 around something! To
reach the full potential this boat has to offer,
you need to get it on the water running around the race course.
Running your boat on the race course allows you to build depth
perception as well as get to know the needs of the boat.
➧ The TS3 responds best if you drive it as if you were driving a car
or any other type of wheeled vehicle. Your lap times will go down if
you lift off the throttle and set the boat as you enter the corner and
accelerate out. Driving “white knuckled” you will likely not be paying
attention to your entry point, losing valuable seconds off your lap time.
➧ If the pond you test at has an elevated driver’s platform, make sure
you stand on it even during testing. Also stand in multiple locations.
This way if you do not get your favorite spot on race day, you will not
be surprised by what you experience. It is also good to take a quick
look at the water and race course before you launch the boat for
your heat. If you see a buoy out of place or an obstacle in the water,
it’s best to identify it before you launch the boat.
➧ Starting and launching the boat later in clock time is far better
than starting and launching at the beginning. If your clock time is
2:30 like most, be warned, if you go out early you are adding to the
seconds your boat can get into trouble. During the race it’s best to
be on the water ONLY as long as you need to be.
➧ Also have your caller show you the back of the boat before he or
she launches it. Move your rudder back and forth and make SURE it
is working before he or she launches the boat.
