Who is going to win this year? Will the turbocharged race crafts set the benchmark this year against the Supercharged? Mike Klippenstein is on fast R&D Turbocharged Yamaha, Craig Warner is also on a very good R&D Turbocharged Kawasaki, Gerry Wong riders for Klipper Racing on a fast Turbocharged Yamaha too. Pastorello is riding with Botti on a Supercharged Kawasaki and the list goes on. Are we gonna see any newcomers getting to the podium. It is a 300mile race. Photo courtesy:Mark Hahn 300 on FB

Jean-Bruno Pastorello teamed up with Jean-Baptiste Botti to race on a Kawasaki Ultra 310 Supercharged in this year’s Mark Hahn 300. As we have tested many of Pastorello’s Ultra race crafts we know that the top speed of his boats usually do not exceed the 75-76mph margin. Will the two riders be able to coupe with the fast turbocharged race crafts? The turbocharged boats also have better fuel consumption which is very crucial on how many pit stops you are making during the race. Botti proved to be the fastest rider at the World Finals and at King’s Cup too, so the action will be astonishing at this year’s Mark Hahn race.

Canadian superstar of Jet Ski Racing Mike Klippenstein looks to be the favorite for this year’s win at the Mark Hahn 300 that takes place this Saterday in Lake Havasu City. Mike Klippenstein will be racing a brand new Yamaha FZ SVHO equipped with an all new R&D Turbo kit. Until now testing has been very good and Klipper’s Yamaha runs consistently at 85mph. This is a very promising set up and his race boat has been fine tuned by Bill Chapin. According to Chapin a new impeller provided more top speed at the same rpm. Mike Klippenstein looks forward to this race and he is ready to raise his Canadian flag…

The Memorial Race of Mark Hahn 300 is just round the corner and Team Kawasaki has worked hard since last summer with the scope to improve the performance and reliability of the Turbo set up on Craig Warner’s Ultra. Team Kawasaki engineer Minoru Kanamori has been working extensively with Bill Chapin of R&D on this turbo set up. Warner’s boat is being equipped with R&D’s Turbo kit and its top speed has been improved by 3-4mph than last year’s set up. Last year’s Ultra which was tested exclusively by Jetskiworld.gr was running at 75-76mph at 7.900rpm. Therefore, this year Warner’s Kawasaki is clocking 79.5mph consistently.

Last year Kommander Ind. was experimenting with a new EFI system developed for the three-cylinder Kawasaki engine as well as with a new exhaust system. This year Team Kommander takes a new route. There is a lot of talking about setting up a Kawasaki hull with a Yamaha three-cylinder two-stroke engine. So this projects sounds to be very promising. Stay tuned for the first test results.
