POCA PHOTOS

David -

We are having too much fun to be posting photos.

This place has been great - rubbing elbows with Tom T., super-cars at TWS, Quinceneras with the kids, while fixing Panteras in the rain.....

Who's got time for posting up pictures?

I promise we will, but it will take us a while...

I wish you guys were here (seriously). The Space City Panteras put on a great event - and there is more to come.

That's actually Tom's car.

From the POCA forum:

Rick's car (the blue one with black stripes) swept the awards. He needed a huge box to bring them all home in.

His car was Tom Tjaarda's pick for best car.

Thanks for sharing

Did you hear the news about the huge gunfight in Texas? (9 Killed, 18 wounded, 183 arrested - caused by two rival gangs having a turf-war?)

A similar incident ALMOST happened in Humble TX.

The POCA Club Members were the first to arrive at DeLorean Motorcar Factory, and about 15 minutes later, the DeLorean Club rolled up.

The Panteras had all the good parking spots....

Pictures at 11:00..........

(JOKE)


Here we were getting ready for battle with the DMC - crew.... We had them out-gunned.

Here is Kirby's Car... I am sorry I missed a picture of it on the track.

Maybe someone can help me out.

As I guided Tom to view the Panteras staged at the car show, he was most interested in the modifications from his original design. He walked past cars that were mostly stock and took more time evaluating modified examples. He was very sensitive about making any negative comments so as not to offend anyone so he was not very forthcoming on modifications for which he didn't care. That said, he was open and seemed to welcome the modifications owners made. He took no offense to changes in his original design and seemed delighted that people were evolving his initial concept. He seems most proud of the Pantera's haunches behind the side windows. This includes the triangular window and side gill. He was not a fan of the Amerisport louvres that I have on my car and was impressed with the large elephant ears that reach out beyond the boundary layer to grab air. He felt that in an open intake system, the smaller vents would not draw much air into the engine compartment due to rough boundary layer. He was very impressed with Rick Rossier's blue car pictured previously. He repeated stated how tasteful all the modifications were executed. When pointedly asked, what he would like to see the generation Pantera look like? He stated he would be proud to build what Rick had created. He especially like the nose treatment on his Pantera. Tall praise indeed! My understanding is that Rick actually did all the work on his Pantera. Perhaps he can get a job at Tjaarda Design Studios.

did Tom Tjaarda say he would be going to any future fun rallies? Sadly my car could not make it this year. would love to meet Tom and have him sigh my deck lid

When this puppy starts, you may think you have cheated on your wife!
