[DeTomaso] Pantera aerodynamics

I have nice video of a Pantera crossing the finish line at a race, where it
had thrown a rod (thru the pan ?), and it created quite a smoke and debris
plume.

Much went OUT the openings where the quarter windows were (removed).

Trap speed was below 100 MPH as it's hard to get much power from a V7.

                  Is there anyway you can point me to these photos?   I 
would love to see them?



                                Very, very keen to see those pictures,
