Bob...

Well, Henry's comments jogged my memory, and Larry was, in fact, correct.  
But Jack Drews turning the liners on the Thunder Bolt (same Hallett event) is 
also true.  I've got pictures.

What I had wrong in the story was that I used Larry's head at that event.  In 
fact, Jack Drews lent the head to me at another event (probably BLACKHAWK) 
and I used it, before it was returned to Larry.

Just another part of the legend of how TRIUMPH folk help each other out.

I apologize for getting the story wrong.  I am closer to 70 than 69, and I 
don't remember stuff too good these days.  I can't remember if I had 
breakfast...until I look in the mirror.
