Title: Speed Demon rolled?
Post by: typo41 on September 12, 2014, 02:45:24 PM

I just heard that the Speed Demon pencil rolled and was wrecked.  George was driving and walked away.
Wet salt is given as the problem

Tony:

See the topic called Mike Cook presents. . .   We've had some information there for a while.  The Cook Facebook site has had some up, too.

True Bat Man, once I got by all the 'I cant hear the radio" posts I did see it.

To be honest, I figured Speed Demon is a big enough name and what happened big enough to have it's own post, not on page 5.

Ah -- I see your thinking.  Check out the Mike Cook Shootout Facebook page.  It's run by John Baechtel and he's on the Cook team - can post things that he has permission before I get them.

Cook says we're getting close to having Big Red run again.  Gotta get patrol vehicles back in position -- they're all at lunch down by the 0.

Wet salt was NOT the problem.
