The model:  This thing looks fast just sitting in the water.  Pete built her for 2009 and it has plenty of speed and handling.  Look for this one near the front running light and quick.  

The real boat:  A Jim Lucero creation to replace the first Miller American.  The boat was plenty fast, but it was not the best handling boat for driver Chip Hanauer.  They opted to bench this one and go back to the older hull that had so much success.  This boat became the second Miller High Life in 1988, and after a big makeover, would become a successful Circus Circus and Winston Eagle.
