A Modern Take On An APBA Class Racing Boat



Designed by Van Dam to reflect the heyday of APBA class racing, this speedster delivers eye-watering performance! With a nicely tuned and dressed up 3.0L engine, she looks and sounds great. Custom hardware, solid cold-molded construction, and legendary Van Dam craftsmanship ensure this little devil will be red hot and fun to drive for many generations.
