This is the second Miss Budweiser to be powered by a Roll Royce Griffith engine. Driver Dean Chenoweth drove this hull to the 1980 and 1981 National Championships and Gold Cup victories. During the 1981 season, he won 20 consecutive heat victories in the first 5 races. Tragically Dean lost his life in 1982 at the Columbia Cup in the Tri-Cities in qualifications. Miss Budweiser continued to race to the end of 1985 with driver Jim Kropfield.

Scale Bio:

|
The 1982 Miss Budweiser made its debut at the 2007 Gold Cup/ Norm Evans scoring 972 points. She was flighty but was manageable over the swells of Lake Chelan. The 2008 season should be far better after some off season changes. I thank my friends Troy McIntire and Fred Stock for their help in completing this hull. I am very satisfied with the hull after the long days of building the plug and molds.
