The model:  Mike built this boat and debuted it at the Diamond Cup at Lake Tye.  The boat showed good speed and faired well in its first race.  We look for more of the same.

The real boat:  The boat was probably most famous for it's lap record run using Nitrous Oxide.  The boat qualified great, but would suffer a major fire in the final heat on race day.
