This kit accurately portrays the 'Miss Champion,' sponsored by the Champion Spark Plug Co. in 1939.

The 'Miss Champion' differs only in logo from the 'PESCO Special.' In this distinctive livery, the Lair-Turner secured victory in the 1939 National Air Racer, with the Keith Rider Marcoux Bromberg Special coming in second. According to Roscoe Turner, the second-place finish was attributed to the pilot's, Earl Ortman, youthful miscalculations.
