Hi guys,
Old-timers will remember Ed Kornegay, the onetime PCNC member who used to
be in charge of the PCNC track event in Las Vegas many moons ago.
Several PCNC members formed their own open track club in order to enable
them to run their Panteras on the track. Called Checkered Flag Racing
Association (CFRA), the club has grown to be rather 'racy' and also rather
'clubby', with a small and exclusive membership.
Unfortunately, all of the club's Panteras have either gone by the wayside,
or are terminally laid up as funds no longer allow them to be run. Ed lost
his car in a divorce, Pete Beckham sold his car to buy a 1990s NASCAR
racer, Charlie Puckett doesn't have the time to run his car, etc. etc.
Ed is nostalgic for the days when Panteras roamed the tracks. To that
end, today he sent me this:

Hi Mike,
It’s been years since we have had a Pantera at a CFRA event. I’m going to
take a shot at changing that. I’m willing to offer a 50% discount to
anyone who is willing to drive a Pantera at either the Thunderhill event on Oct.
17th ($98) or at or Infineon (Sears Point) event on November 20th ($137).
Owning a Pantera is not enough. It must be the car you track. Let me know
if anyone is interested. Best deal in the world. Slots are limited (at
that price). If the Pantera have passed into history as track cars, I’m
willing to accept that as well.

So, I'm calling on all Nor-Cal Pantera guys who like open track time, to
check your calendars and your checkbooks, and come on out! Note that the
second date is a Sunday, the first date is a Monday.
Mark, please post this info on the PCNC website. And Larry, this is
FYI--would you mention it at the PCNC meeting please?
THANKS!
Mike (assuming I get my motor fixed in time, I'll be there!)
