[1] In 1963, Jack Williams' Vancouver, British Columbia–based drag racing team (Williams-Devine-McDougall) rebuilt Williams' old slingshot rail with a new aluminum body (painted in blue metalflake), with a very long, pointed nose, faired-in engine, and blue-tinted Lexan canopy over the cockpit.
[2] The engine was a 404 cu in (6,620 cc) Chrysler hemi with a front-driven Potvin supercharger.
[3] Scuderia made her debut at the 1963 NHRA Winternationals at Pomona, California in Top Gas, recording a best pass of 8.83 seconds at 169.17 mph (272.25 km/h) before mechanical trouble sidelined her.
[3] At Arlington, Scuderia set a Top Gas record (average of two passes) at 162.22 mph (261.07 km/h).
In the 1980s, Scuderia made a comeback when Williams entered her in West Coast nostalgia drag races, crashing at Fremont.
