all accurate
Sadly they are not setting any records this year. I saw a report ( if true) that the hull on the boat took some major damage and will take a lot of time to fix. So they hung it up.
From what I gathered weldbuilt built that boat specifically for this run. Not a screaming endorsement, that said under normal circumstances a factory weldbuilt is a good boat.
Again if the report I saw was actually true.
There is another guy calls himself Bandit making the same run currently. He is doing it like Robert Youins did last year. Kind of on his own without all the hoopla and endorsements. Last I saw he was still up and running.
