Can someone identify this leg. Kinda weird but cool. Came with.a boat I picked up about 5 yrs ago. I put a os on it and just stuck this in a box of nitro parts box. Just found it cleaning my shop.

Looks a lot like my old Dolphin hulls lower.  Didn't have that ASP on it though...

Originally it was from ABC Hobby (the Laserline mentioned) before they went out of business. They were known for flimsy plastic boats, mostly electrics but got into the nitro scene for a short time. These are known for having bad bushings in the drive that wore out quickly then would toss the belts if a piece of debris didn't get them first. Top speed with the supplied engine was a big whoppin' 17 MPH.
A good spot for it would be a trashcan. Yes, seriously, it's that bad.
