It's a little more complex than that, and a little more technical. The easiest way for you to appear to be "in the know" is to read the numbers on the side of the boat, and then make a comment like "The Superstocks are getting ready to run!" if all the boats have the "SS" on the side. Only one that will trip you up is Pro Stock since the SS boats are legal to run in PS, but not the other way around. Originally Posted by Wendi

This picture is cropped way down, so it isn't the best image quality.

That K looks a bit familiar! My sons had a hand in that one. Originally Posted by papaletch4130

One other thing to clarify is that PS=pro stock, SS=super stock, and K boat are all the same hulls and manufacturers. A flatbottom design of typically 18' in length. They use the same hardware and all run 5 mile races. (usually four laps) The flatbottom boats usually start their race while running, they pair up for a flag start. The GN=Grand Nationals run an endurance race that usually start from the beach on a timed countdown. This comes after a few laps of warming up in seeming chaos. They run about five times as long of a race as the flats do. They have a v-bottom design and usually run around 19-21 feet long.
