Serious Race Boat
 

I was digging thru some old pics and happened across this. It's my old Velocity 30 race boat. It's a 1980 hull that originally belonged to Jay Smith (past president of the APBA), The fellow I bought it off of renamed it from Putt-Putt to Serious. After a complete, down-to-the-last-bolt restoration, I sold it (just married/new baby) and it sat in storage for almost 20 years. It resurfaced recently not far from me. Thought you might enjoy seeing it ;)

I think Still Crazy a Modified was the most famous.

The old photo is Jay running it.

But what's up with the sketches?

thats thin is neat looking!! you have any more pics? how did it run after the resto?

I had a set of Banks turbocharged/intercooled 496's in it with alcohol injection and I ran out of willingness to push further on the throttles at 113. It sold with a set of small blocks in it that ran mid-80's.

This was 20 years ago. 496 was a big-inch motor and 70 was hauling a$$.
