Stan,,, I LOVE ROADSTERS.... However,,, due to my size I can not fit in one...

If I could fit.. I would like a 32,33 or 34 Ford  Roadster..

But, for now the Vicky and Stude will have to do....

Charles,

I apologize that I did not get back to you Monday as promised.  We are testing all week, but might have some time tomorrow to give you a call and go over some of the questions you might have.

Hooley's roof flap  is released when  the chute is pulled.

He has spun the Stude at speed and the there were indications the flap did deploy (open).  Sum  had some photos on his web site   of the  flap  setup on Holley's car

Speaking of the now elusive Sumner . . . did he make it to SW?  Was he just one of the dozens I know but never saw?

Sumner was at Speedweek, with Hooleys crew. That was his sailboat next to Hooleys pit.
