Going to Bowling Green this weekend for a double combo race. Our goal is to shake the car down and hope to run under the index in FSS/F. We will see.
Y’all come and race it’s a great place!

Congratulations, I think it will run the number!
LOL!
Y'all know the starting line will be stellar as always.
Let Dumbo fly!

I’ll try to get Patsy to post, I’m sure I will be checking stuff.

We have trailer problems. Not going to make BG I think they had 40 SS/S.

Another weekend of disappointment we have had trailer problems, rain , and more rain. We are trying to find a place to test.

I found Dumbo sun visors. Three screws and done

A new lift cylinder fixed the trailer. It was kind of a trick to get 40” of clearance under the trailer to R and R the cylinder using the hydraulic cylinder and Jack-stands with a few crossties thrown in for good measure.
NMCA race this weekend in St Lout. It’s always a good time at the NMCA races.

The trailer is loaded with Dumbo, chase car, and golf cart. Leaving to race in St Louis in the morning and we are more them ready to smell smoke. We are ready to see old friends and meet new ones. Twenty minutes to ten EDT and filling motor home with water.

Dumbo went A to B but was a little lazy of the line. He should get better. On the second hit he went .05 quicker at 330’. Progress.
