Re: Some old pics
Does anyone have more photos or info. on these following 2 boats...both CARRERA raceboats? They are very seldom seen and very hard to find! Aerial racing photos would be great if they exist and someone still has them and would be willing to post them.

M-811 "SHOWDOWN MARINE" 24' CARRERA SS7M. I believe Showdown Marine was a Carrera dealer in Wyandotte, MI (near Detroit) at that time.

I believe this boat's class/number is S-111 and that it is called "Damn CARRERA too!"...It should be Carrera owner/builder Humberto Picon's 39' raceboat if I am not mistaken. I think it was his 3rd or 4th raceboat after 1 or 2 24's and the 30' "Damn CARRERA". I think it started its life as a 39' PH Factor hull/deck mold that was sold to Carrera from Paul Haggerty formerly of Cigarette Racing Team...if my OSO search "research" is correct.

Its a Nova Marine (Allan "Brownie" Brown's company started after he left Donzi) the predecessor to every WellCraft Nova built.
