Roll pin would have solved the problem or some loctite, just my bad as they say.

Perhaps Bill is referring to Ken Etter's Fontana wreck...based on how badly he got banged up I'd say yours could have been far worse. Nevertheless I hated to see your car get so damaged, first saw it at one of Valdosta's National Opens and I was very impressed, in some ways more so than the Barton/Wescott battles waged there.

I did email this to you Jeff but it never got viewed, so I'll just put it here. I'm sure not what you were looking for, but here you go.

Thanks Rob, Guess I missed that one but thanks again that's a good angle. Guess no one had closeup top end photos. NHRA would not let anyone down there.
