Right-O! the "up" exhaust was to squelch any grousing about Turbinator
being a "thrust" car.
No offense taken, but when I see things that mention TEAMVesco I want to
ensure that NOBODY gets the wrong idea and respond in kind.

Subject: RE: hypersonic LSR/Turbinator
Louise:
rumor in the pits is that Don V. resorted to the "up" exhaust to squelch any
grousing about Turbinator being a "thrust" car.
Yeah, everyone I've talked to thinks he was one of the best riders/ drivers
to ever grace the Salt. He was sure MY biggest LSR hero, for well over 20
years.
My point in that last message is that I thought it will take a high exhaust
volume (like a turbine) to be effective in "blown wing" config. (The point
was not to cast any aspersions on Turbinator.)
After reading (today) about the experiments on the old Phantom, it appears
that may not be the right view; maybe recip exhausts could be effective.
