Udderly Fantastic
Anyone know what ever became of the old race boat "Udderly Fantastic" once campaigned by dairy farmer Andy Trauth?
I believe it was a 35' Motion cat racing in modified class under the unique numbers M-00 (of course). I think Barry of Cat-Can-Do ran it briefly, but I haven't seen it since the Huron, Ohio race that was stormed out several years ago. |

I don't know if Andy still owns it but it is currently in the Paso Robles/Lake NAciemento area (North end of Southern California). I see it running almost every time I"m at the lake. Sounds AWESOME!!

Re: Udderly Fantastic
I don't think he's in the farmer end of the business. He owns the dairy processing plan, Trauth Dairy in downtown Newport, KY. Super nice guy I haven't seen in years. As I recall, his son ran a boat the was called "The Udder Boat"

Re: Udderly Fantastic
The Udder Boat was a Phanton that ran in the old A-Class. Ryan Beckley ran with Andy last in Factory 3 I believe. After the Factory 3 boat got busted with aluminum fly wheels in the HP500's in F3 Andy never raced again as far as I remember. That was back in 2000.

Re: Udderly Fantastic
Andy hasn't raced since.......he still works at Trauth Dairy but it's owned by a big company. He owns AMT powerboats now and also has SEVRAL dragsters with his two sons, Adam and Anthony.

Paint looks just a little different than I remember, but that's the boat. Is it a 35' Motion? |
Re: Udderly Fantastic
They had a 35 Motion first with a few different graphic jobs on it. The a 36 Spectre that they raced a few times , and then 2 36 Skaters the were raced in Modified class and then Factory 3
|
We have the 35 Motion that was Cat Can Do under the guidance of Kieth Holmes. Pink coating was under black on the transom, same color as in Udderly Fantastic pictures. Kieth remembers the boat running 138MPH consistently with super cat motors.
If someone has pictures or other information about the boat it would be greatly appreciated. |
