Whta comes to mind is as I looked thru the history of the race Pantera's I see an awful lot of DNF's ...can anyone comment on WHY ?? was it horsepower torque on the ZF or was there other reason Pantera's DID NOT FINISH ??? lets just say thats been rumbling around in my thoughts for a while. LOL

I have heard it said that the biggest problem was lack of support. Detomaso had little or no racing money and Ford wasn't interested.
I think that there are always a lot of DNF's.
That's why the factories run so many cars in a single event.
Independents always had a tough time.
