A most DRAMATIC end for an Allison and a sad waste that they are still being used in this fashion. (I truly detest this sport....) :x :x

I ran this on my computer @ work this afternoon with the phones on and the volume cranked, brought tears to my eyes, when my dayshift cubicle partner showed up I sat him down , dropped the phones on him and hit 'play' his eyes got damp too. We're both former boat racing crew members from 40 or so years ago so we both wanted to go to the lake and start thrashing! :heart:
One question, did they find out which lead was either bad or not tight because that old girl (love that it's a -115) had a nearly dead cylinder and both #2 and #4 looked to have one dead plug judging by the exhaust flame patterns.
AND THANKS A LOT!! from two old boat racer guys :D :D :D :D :D :D :prayer: :prayer: :prayer: :supz: :supz: :supz: :partyman:
