The model:  Built in 2007 and became the latest Bob Gilliam boat for Pete.  It came off the same plans that produced Pete's last Division 1 Champion boat, the Mr.P's.  That alone should give him high hopes for a prosperous season with this ride.  

The real boat:  A sponsorship from Pizza Pete breathed new life into owner/driver Bob Gilliam's race team in 1972.  This boat may have been his most successful.
