That was '89.

Most definitely not. It's in Tegler's book, which only goes up to 83. Unfortunately there is nothing online about Reno 78 and the accident with Jerry Duty's Datsun and I'm at work, can't get to the book. Maybe 78 wasn't Hoover? It wass a 51.

You guys talking about Hoover's modification to Scott Hammack's truck ? Certainly not '78. I know Scott was a little 'upset' about it...

Re: Hellcat into a truck?

It's two different incidents then. Hammack and then in 78 Jerry Duty's brand new sliced up Datsun.

Hopefully it doesn't start the chain of events as was in Hoover's case.

For the record. It is not my picture I linked it from a Facebook page and I don't know who took it. Glad nobody was hurt and that the Hellcat will fly again.

I'm referring to Hoovers incident with the jet car support truck. Watched the whole thing unfold. I was so convinced it wasn't really happening that I didn't put the camcorder to my eye. Still kicking myself for that one.

I was out there today but missed the accident. I did hear later that 2 trucks were involved the Jetman truck and the roving fire truck Rover 2. I heard this from 2 sources but I do not know if it is true.

Yes he did manage to hit two trucks, I guess he dragged the horizontal down the side of the one vehicle and then hit the other with the prop.
