The world's fastest boats and maybe the world's most daring drivers take to the water to prove supremacy on the water. It's the IHBA World Finals Drag Boat Racing blazing the liquid quarter-mile at Firebird Lake at speeds in excess of 250 miles per hour. Top Fuel Hydros, Top Alcohol Hydros, Pro Gas Flats, and Top Alcohol Flats as well as 10 other classes will compete in the final event on the IHBA Series which will decide the 2008 points and season champion. Firebird Lake holds over 20 IHBA records in the various classes and there is always room for more as these boats get more technologically advanced every year. This great weekend of family fun also includes a unique midway with specialty items only found during the boat races. An interactive kidzone, access to the pits, RV parking along the lake, and the last time you'll get to hang out along the water before the Valley cools down. more
