I am going to try and make it, I won't know until Thursday afternoon if I have another commitment. I have taken my Pantera to Audi track events about a half dozen times where I drive my Pantera some of the time and my friend's Audi S5-6spd some of the time. Talk about a contrast, it's just cheating driving the Audi, it's so easy to drive quickly. However, I am 6'2" and with a helmut I am forced to tilt my head at a 45 degree angle while driving to not be smashed into the headliner. Not exactly comfortable and some of the pictures are hilarious. I have not driven my Cat in months, I will take it out tomorrow and see how roadworthy it is, and I hope to be able to make it. We have had a very busy week with the Grand Opening of our first Automated Parking Structure and between all of the press requests for filming, putting cars in the garage and then taking them out, walking people in and out of the building and the system, my spare time has been severely crimped. Below are a couple of links to some news clips one of which happens to show both my XKR and my Pantera (and I had nothing to do with it, they just liked the visual). Hopefully I'll see you guys this weekend.

I just bought my stock '73 at the end of January and do want to track it, but it unfortunately needs some work before I can. I would like to support the event some other way if I can. I cannot even come out because I am supporting a $200M software install that goes live tomorrow night at midnight - putting in 15 hour+ days.
Thanks to everyone that helped to get the attendance up for this great event. We got the needed entrants and the promoters will continue to host future events.
This started as a PANTERA event. Lets support them in the future with more than just my Pantera. For those that couldn't make this event, the next one is in November. Please put it on your radar and show everyone that Pantera owners are not just show queens!
Thanks again! We made it!!!
