Chalk up hydroplane races at Folsom Lake as another casualty of the 2014 drought.

H1 Unlimited officials, the people who brought the big boats back to Folsom Lake after a 46-year absence last May, pulled the plug on holding the local races this year.

H1 chairman Sam Cole, a Sacramento resident, said it was disappointing to have to abandon the hydroplane tour’s stop at Folsom Lake this year, but there was no choice. It was not a question of Folsom Lake being too shallow.

“It is literally too small to accommodate our pit area and a two-mile race course,” Cole said in a press release. “But we will continue our planning and hope for better conditions for a return in 2015.”
