Tomcat has a new Skater 40 being rigged by Jerry Gilbreath who will also throttle for Tom. Gilbreath is one of the best setup guys around and who is said to have made mods to the hull....mercury power (for now....). Sould be very competitive. TA maybe a rookie driver but no stranger to big fast cats...

I. SUPER CAT
C. HOMOLOGATION OF MOLDS, HULLS AND DECKS –
3. Criteria – In order to be homologated for competition in Super Cat, a model of boat must meet the following criteria and all such information must be submitted to CRE in the application for homologation as a pre-requisite for consideration. Failure to submit the required information or any other information requested by CRE will result in the denial of an application for homologation.
b. Custom Hulls and Decks - One of a kind hulls and decks, custom fabricated, are not allowed.
c. Construction, Changes, Modifications
ii. Hull Bottoms - The approved hull bottoms must be identical to those produced from a manufacturer’s production line mold with no changes allowed unless approved in writing by CRE. Subject to the requirements set forth below, an owner or manufacturer may upgrade the bottom of a pre-existing boat bottom design to new factory standards that have been approved through the homologation process. These upgrades must be precise so as to allow the updated hull to fit into the new factory molds. No backdating is allowed without the written permission of CRE. All such change requests must be submitted in writing at least 60 days prior to competition with the precise measurements to CRE.

If the mods need to be homologated I am sure they are - all parties involved are of high integrity. Certainly, if I know about them then they aren't "top secret". Aside, certain work can be done within the rules i.e. blueprinting bottom, choice of intakes, etc.
