The 15th Annual Quake on the Lake races were held July 18-20 on Pontiac Lake in Waterford, Michigan. The promotors and sponsors refer to the event as biggest beach party in Oakland County because, in addition to the hydroplane racing, there are all sorts of vendors set up, live music, sandcastle making, volleyball, children’s areas with bounce houses, classic cars, beer, drinks food, and, oh yeah, a really big beach!

Bring the whole family and spend the day having fun in the sun, listening to the roar of the boats while watching them fly across the surface of the lake, and catch some great live music. This year’s music was provided on Friday by two country singers of some repute, Audrey Ray followed by Julianne Ankley. On Saturday the five-piece band The Swank Club began the audio festivities with their steel drum rhythms propelling the music followed by Air Margaritaville, the local and extremely good Jimmy Buffet cover band.

According to the American Power Boat Association (APBA), the Quake on the Lake boat classes were:
