Caguada is a Vitosian founded auto racing sport involving vehicles called "agulosas".

Etymology

"Caguada" comes from three different words in some of the Native Vitosian languages. The words, which translate to "water car race", are used as a portmanteau to label the sport in question. The vehicles, called an "agulosa", follows the same three word portmanteau, the meaning of which translates to "water fun car".

History

Under construction.

In Alecburgh, the sport is popular in Varzo and Valenberg, the states with the longest coastlines.

Vitosian immigrants brought the sport to Beatavic where it is popular in the coastal provinces along with the southern suburbs of Amstelvoort.

The Agulosa

Agulosas are styled after bumper cars and inflatable jet boats.

Rules and Regulations

Individual races can have up to twenty racers at a time but must have a minimum of twelve. Each racer is to use an agulosa to race around a water track. Said track, however, is not always fully rested on water. Some races may see a custom track built for the occasion. The goal of the racer is to maneuver past other racers and special obstacles to complete an 8-15 lap race.

Team race events will see around the same number of boats competing, although the teams will have a larger, specialized agulosa that can hold an entire crew.

The obstacles can vary but must be approved by The Vitosian Caguada Association. The most popular obstacle used, known as a "bolibua", is a specialized buoy-esque object outfitted to have the racers bounce off them should they collide.

Reception

The sport, to many, can be summed up as "inflatable jet boat bumper cars that can bounce off special buoy-esque objects in a custom water track". Many, even in countries that don't have caguada, find the sport to be unpredictable and watch it.
