The model:  Marc built this obscure boat in a remarkable 8 days prior to the second race of 2013.  The boat was fast right out of the box and you can tell Marc holds nothing back.  On its first pre-race test, Marc had it going full tilt down the backstretch at Lake Pleasant and blew it over.  This is going to be a good one.  Marc is now contemplating leaving it this way or painting it into the 82 Executone as originally planned.

The real boat:  This was one of Fred Leland's boats in the 80's.  It raced only one race like this in Tri Cities and ran the next week with sponsorship from AA Auto Supply.  It served as Mike Hanson's first unlimited ride.
