    Why is a wng so hard to get back on the trailer, after it flips?-----

    So what's the story behind that pic? I didn't know you ever dumped one of those and how did Olegator contribute to this?

    Saw some interesting things in the official 1968 Parker results. Some time back Mark75H had asked how the Dutchman Wings finished at Parker. All I could tell him was that they didn't run all that well and that I thought they had dropped out early. The listing shows Schoonover finished 20th completeing 40 laps. Using the winners 52 laps completed in 9 hours, that says that Schoonover dropped out sometime in the 6th hour.

    Gene, I had asked you whether the #804 Wing (upside down on trailer) was the Lake X boat or maybe John DiPietra. The results show DiPietra finished 55th and I believe the #804 was lost before the race, so it must be the Lake X Wing.

    Lastly, I did notice that you finished 6th overall, 3rd outboard completeing 47 laps. Two laps behind Massey's Wing and on the same lap with Don Harper's Raysoncraft, the same boat that won Havasu a few months earlier.....a very good run

    The top five finishing outboards.....
