When it comes to fast and loud, the American Power Boat Association has got the bases covered; even with ear plugs, these boats really roar. Over 100 years have passed since the inaugural running of the prestigious Gold Cup race, and you and the grandchildren can watch for free from the beach on Belle Isle or buy tickets for either a reserved or general admission grandstand on the Detroit side. Watching hydroplanes that top out around 200 mph racing on the Detroit River feeds any need for speed in a big way.
Info: Tickets range from $10 to $200
Hours: Mid-July, annually
Age: Elementary (5-9), Tween (9-12), Teen (12+)
