Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant
Hey Larry or Chris,
What did Dumbo weigh (including Larry) on that 145mph pass? Trying to refer to my original notes with Larry about testing stuff.  Good job down there in the swamps for sure. Thanks in advance, HB2  Dissident |

Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant
Minimum weight for FS/D with driver is 3395#. After the run the car scaled 3415# and that is within 5# of what it weighs on my scales.
HB2 as always thanks for helping me think in the correct direction! |

Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant
I almost have the car race ready. By race ready for me is how easy and fast can we service the car and change components to make the next round. This winter’s project is, as always weight reduction. Goal this year 15 to 20 pounds for the car and 20 pounds for the driver.
Thanks Mark |
