In this episode of Chasin’ Tails, the crew — Brandon, Bobby, and Kyle— sit down with seven-time H1 Unlimited National Champion Jimmy Shane for a deep dive into the world of hydroplane racing, family legacy, and the future of the sport.

Jimmy opens up about growing up in a racing family, getting his first boat, and what ultimately pulled him back into Unlimiteds as his own kids stepped into the sport. The episode covers everything shaping the next era of racing: the shift toward four-stroke engines, environmental regulations, racing simulators, boat setup, vintage racing debates, and what H1 can learn from new series like E1.

The crew and Jimmy also swap personal stories, relive fan-favorite moments, talk controversies, laugh about old rivalries, and break down what makes the hydroplane community so unique.
