Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant
Every time I speak with a racer or a vendor they tell me something I need to know. The information most times does not register immediately but it floats to the top in due time.

Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant
I have a confession to make. The Sunday before dyno day about 6:30 am I gave up on making Indy. I could not get the cam lash adjusted like I wanted. Twenty minutes later after some soul searching I decided that the steel and aluminum was not smarter than me. The intermission allowed me to get the stuff better. Fatigue is a sneaky enemy.

After my Mom passed away years ago I found a black and white pic of myself and my Mom (early circa 1960's tow headed and a huge smile on me w/my 2 front upper baby teeth missing from my very first trip to Disneyland as you may have guessed...in the air riding that Historically highest grossing "B-ticket ride" (BTW according to Walt Disney's inner accountancy notes I recently saw in a Y.T. video -Least cost to run-least upkeep, more riders served, smaller costs to operate historically), Dumbo The Baby Elephant ride. I too am in a second childhood, it made me smile, and think back to simpler days when Bobby panned down to your door. It fits Larry!

Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant
We got Dumbo back to decent numbers for 60 feet. I?m still missing something but getting closer.
