As announced from ProWatercross Tour crew: “We were deeply saddened today to hear that David Knisley passed away this past week. David was part of the Pro Watercross family from 2007 to 2013 as one of our race day announcers, TV personality as well as one of the producers on our TV shows. We first met David when he was brought in to be an announcer at a first time event in Salisbury, MA; we knew little about David except that he was a fireman in Grand Rapids, Michigan and in his free time announced for Arenacross. David turned out to be a good friend and great advocate for the sport of watercross. From the first time David picked up the microphone we knew that he was going to be part of our tour; he was a natural commentator at the races as he guided the spectators and TV viewers around the race course making each moto exciting and a thrill to watch. David had a way of making everyone he met feel welcome and important; whether it was a world champion competitor or someone that he was just having a conversation with... His kindness and great talent will always be remembered in our hearts and our deepest sympathy goes out to all of his loved ones - David will be truly missed.”

SPORT GP: #13 Sam Nehme left little doubt that he is the man to beat in the Sport GP division, nailing two decisive first-place finishes in motos 1 and 2; but #72 Johnny Smith and #1 Kelly Smith both gave him a run for his money, followed closely by a crowded field in the competitive class. Kelly finished the weekend in 2nd after two third-place motos and a hard-fought first-place finish in moto 3. Johnny Smith's two third place finishes and a third place landed him the third podium spot for the weekend. Finishing out the rankings for the Sport GP class were #14 Keith Dill (4th), #367 Robert Sayah (5th), #1 Billy Dearman (6th), #85 Jules Hopkins (7th), #86x Kyle Hayes (8th), #910 Jeff Mcphail (9th), #2 Cody Mccallum (10th), #31 William Beers (11th), #907 Andrew Bezan (12th), #24 Morgan Beers (13th), #18 Shawn Reynolds (14th) and #51 Dirac Barbee (15th).

Kommander Industries reports from Saterday’s motos from Round 1: “David Redinger lead the entire Moto in Pro-AM GP Ski and then a lapper hit him and knocked him off his ski. Redinger went back in to the game again and ended up with 2nd, Tyron Motzouris in 3rd and Dustin Motzouris in 5th. Dustin crashed hard and hurt his back and he came from behind to fisni in 5th place. Tyron was on back up Ski since the flywheel key broke on his race boat during practice. Chris MacClugage broke his engine (rear piston) so he did not race. James Wilson won the Moto in front of Redinger. Shante Buke scored a 2nd place behind winner Dustin Farthing in Pro Stock Runabout.

The R&D Yamaha FZR Intercooler Temperature Control system was developed to offer an inexpensive complete bolt on kit that will allow the full performance and cooling potential the O.E.M. intercooler has to offer for recreational applications. Intercooler core water temperatures have a range of affect on the supercharged air temperatures that enter into the engine. The Yamaha FZR Intercooler operates on a single low pressure (10 P.S.I.) line of lake temperature water to cool the intercooler. R&D has found that by adding an additional intercooler water in line, and adding an additional water out line and bypass fitting, there will be double the water flow volume at 20 P.S.I. Reduced intercooler core temperatures can add a noticeable increase in low end and midrange power along with reduced detonation. R&D offers a range of machined flow control fittings to allow water volume control tuning for intercooler temperature adjustments for warm lake water and extreme hot air conditions. R&D also offers a pressure relief blowoff valve kit for high water volume flow rates on higher boost Stage 1 and up engine kits. The R&D Kit will allow temperature tuning that will deliver surprising results. Unlock hidden performance and power potential in the OEM stock intercooler or aftermarket intercooler system by reducing intercooler core temperatures. Main features: • More horsepower with cooler intake air temperatures • Increased acceleration and mid range performance • Reduces detonation in hot weather conditions • Temperature control tune ability • An inexpensive recreational performance addition • Pressure relief valve Options • Easy installation instructions. Available from R&D with Pt. # 660-18000

Multi National and World Champion, Chris MacClugage will compete in the first Round of ProWatercross series in the USA on his new Kommander K1. MacClugage was very pleased with the performance of his new race ski after the completion of the recent tests. As he has mentioned on his recent video published by Kommander, he has seen numbers that there never seen before on any of his race crafts. He is very satisfied with the straight line stability as well as the absolute pure race turning characteristics of his K1. Additionally, Chris mentioned that the K1 is very predictable therefore you do not fight with the boat during racing. A Kommander K1 Macc Signature ski is on the green line of preparation by Kommander crew with close cooperation with MacCluage and it will be available from Kommander Industries and Macc Racing in the near future.
