The model:  Mike did a great job on this model.  It has one of the nicest boat rides seen out there and it's plenty fast.  It sustained damage in a blowover accident in the seaon opener and more damage in the same race it was driven into another boat during the mill lap.  This boat is good enough to go to the front, but will only go as far as the driver will take it.  Good, smart driving will make the difference.

The real boat:  The boat started life in 1992 as Ron Jones Jr's Coors Dry.  It has a radical two wing design that was meant for unlimited power.  The boat later got a conventional center section when power restrictions were implimented.
