P1 Offshore New Orleans Grand Prix Featuring Demon Bikini Race Team

The Demon Bikini Race Team is set to compete in the inaugural P1 Offshore New Orleans Grand Prix, taking place from June 27–29, 2025, on Lake Pontchartrain in New Orleans, Louisiana. This event marks Powerboat P1’s return to New Orleans after nearly two decades and serves as the opening round of the P1 Offshore Triple Crown series. The Demon Bikini team, racing in the Super Stock class, features the S-33 boat—a 32-foot carbon-fiber catamaran powered by twin Mercury Racing 300R engines, delivering a combined 600 horsepower. The team is led by owner/throttleman Chad Havens from Orange, Texas, and driver Leanna Shadlow from Rogers, Arkansas. The event spans three days, offering fans a mix of high-speed offshore racing and AquaX jet ski competitions. The pit area will be located at the Bonnabel Boat Launch in Metairie, providing spectators with close-up views of the teams and their boats. Highlights include testing sessions, qualifying heats, and championship races across various classes, culminating in the Super Stock Championship on Sunday afternoon.
