What is it that drives a man to attempt to go where none have dared venture........?
Armed with that, his web business savvy, and his virtual hydroplane....I don't see how he can fail.
Minor details like a boat will be easily obtained.

Not sure this is exactly something to brag about:
"Russ has already carved his name in the record books. Only two weeks after testing an unlimited hydroplane for the first time, Russ broke the 38 year-old world water speed record for propeller-driven boats. Wicks averaged 205.494 mph over the measured mile, while hitting a top speed of over 220 mph. For his accomplishment he is included in the 'Guinness Book of Records' and was featured on the cover of the March 2003 issue of WIRED Magazine."
Do I read that to mean he made the record run two weeks after his first time in the seat of an unlimited hydro? Sounds like in addition to speed records, he may also be a candidate for a Darwin award in the future.

I think we need to start a pool.
Who will be the first to be killed in front of a TV camera.
1) The "Wild Boys" from Jackass fame
2) The Crokodile Hunter
3) Russ Wicks
I dont wish any of these guy's harm but sometimes you just have to wonder, what the F are they thinking.
