Tastin' n Racin'- Issaquah, Washington

Six hydroplanes, side by side, five feet apart, 150 miles per hour. NASCAR calls it “Bangin’ Doors”; we call it “Deck To Deck Decadence”. Tastin’ n Racin’ is well into its 2nd decade of decadence and action filled water! 2008 will bring many changes that are new and exciting to the festival, not only with the increased activity on the water (including Unlimited Hydroplanes!!), but with great events and specials on the boardwalk, main stage and the family fun area! One of which is a Motorcycle Pledge Ride benefitting The MAX Foundation, and a Hot Boat and Bike Show! The countdown has begun for you to see the hottest Hydros, Flatbottoms, PWC (personal water craft) and Vintage Hydros ripping up the water after the Tastin’ n Racin’ Cup!
