"This is the spectacular Velocity 173 RG Elite my father and I built.  We started the kit in February 1995; two years and four months later the dream took flight.  This was a bold dream.  It entailed both a visionary and a builder who combined their efforts to realize a common goal.  Imagine building your own aircraft that would fly four people cross-country at 190 mph with a 180 HP engine, powered by auto fuel.  The experience of building a beautiful, sleek, IFR-equipped aircraft with a full leather interior will never be forgotten.  Our fastest flight was a trip east to Florida at 11,000 feet, screaming along at 275 MPT.  My thanks to Velocity for support.
