If you had a chevy you'd be out in front and not worried about spray from the other boats in front of you

If if were a chevy you probably would have had issues due to the dist being wet, that's probably a guarantee.

But, more important, why does your boat have that much water in the belly of it? I mean for it to get up on the flywheel and be splashed around like that you must have had like 3" of water in it...is that normal? I thought you just re-did all the seals around the pump, what gives?

Or do they just get that wet inside during races?

the only pic ive seen of marcs boat running. 

Omar, Brad has to have the scoop facing forward.
The only time he takes on water, its coming from the back (which is actually in front at the time).

Team Cold Beer Racing has a couple diffrent (original)  scoop molds.
