    This market segment may be getting a bit crowded, but is there room for yet another player?.

    P.S. Emo being my favorite race car driver, just had to give him some air-time.

    Comes full circle

    It is 1985 and Emmo has been retired from racing for a while.
    At Miami Grand Prix that year, he was given a relatively untried Chevy GTP (IMSA) car to drive.
    Bertram Yacht was a (small) sponser so their name was plastered on the body.

    I'm in a photo taken with him in the pits just prior to the start: a prized possession of mine.

    Oh, yeah, he won, too!

    Hmmm.
    No Chevy 'bowtie'.
    No Eastern Airlines sponsor.
    No Bertram Yacht sponsor.

    Wonder who "Yachtram" was:)

    Maybe the modelbuilder had copyright issues to contend with(?)
