Glen, that's good advice. Thanks man. :cheers:

I will send you a  couple of pictures of the Hyd. unit mounted on a two wheel cart. The unit has a switch to raise/lower, 12 VDC battery and hoses (AN)  with a QD to attach at the car, totally portable.

I'm assuming that's post crash. I sure like the way the car held together. A well built chassis and cage sure pays off.

Amazingly intact. Very good.

Like Stainless and Jon, I have a totally on board system.  200psi air compressor and tanks.  Or I can use remote air.  Same system is backup for CO2 shifter, but the chances of the backup system being used is pretty slim.

Isn't it great when we have so many choices.

So happy that the cage worked just like it is supposed to.
Glad we still have Stainless around.

Stainless gave a 45 minute run down of the crash at the Bonneville NW Reunion.

He had two sets of fotos from about a mile apart. It was great coverage.

You could have seen it if you had attended.

Freud,

if Stainless showed Larry's and my series....

Larry was somewhere between the 3 1/2 and 3 3/4 mile and he had the distance from 1/2 mile to 3/4 mile to the streamliner.

I was behind 5 1/2 mile and had the distance close to 1 3/4 mile - from my position he went sideways after he left the track.

.....I got the series from Larry and prepared them, too, for Stainless.

P.P.  Thank You for making up the series.  Stainless did a good job with it

and the audience ask sensible questions and received great replies.

Ray did some still fotos of it but there is no narration.

Stainless bared his soul to us and the information he shared could save someone a lot of grief.

That is why the cage was covered with steel :-D You never know when you might get a drive by on the salt :cheers:
