What happened to the 38 Cig Top Gun F2 Cigarette that Phil raced; later owned by Gary and Steve at different times?

Or how about 38 Cig Top Gun Speed Racer that DSM & Stinson tried to bank like a Talledaga turn; which was later owned by Jeffrey and Chad at separate times as well?

I'd ask about the Fountains, but then again there never was a truly legal Fountain F2 entry was there?
...And then the argument started.
I believe there were 3 purpose built F2 Cig Top guns. "Maxx" is owned by a guy on Lake George, NY. Now has 620 HP motors. There was also a blue/white one as well. I think that one sank at one time.

There was one Powerplay F2 boat, it was My Wave run by Scott Utah out of NC. It was not a front runner that I remember.

There were (4) F2 Top Gun T/S. The Lip-Ship boat (which we owned), the MAXX Boat, Speed Racer, and Team Virgin. See picture here:
http://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/a...-f2topguns.jpg

The Lip-Ship boat and Virgin boat were the two that won championships out of of the four. Lip-Ship boat went on to win championships with new owners, MAXX only saw a couple races, and Speed Racer only saw a year of racing. The Virgin boat was raced by Tres and then retired.

Sitting in Jo's factory in Miami where I looked at it to buy last Feb. No agreement was made but he said he was hoping to race it this year but I guess things changed. VERY cool boat.
