   All,A
   Quick update.
   The Portland race went great for the Winston Cup car with me driving
   (won all the races), but the Pantera (with Tony driving) clutch blew up
   during the late Saturday race.A  I happened to be right behind Tony
   going into the chicane at the end of the front straight when I saw the
   Pantera suddenly lock up both rear wheels and then go spinning through
   the chicane.A A
   Thankfully, it had not happened a few seconds earlier -- at top speed
   at end of the straight.A  Before that, the car ran beautifully and had
   a non-stop stream of admirers.A  We were very proud to be there with
   the Pantera.A
   It appears that the rivets let go on the clutch and simply blew up.A
   The current plan is to upgrade to a full race clutch package.A  Our
   next Pantera event will be a weekday test at INDE before heading down
   to Daytona at the end of October for the HSR Classic 24-hour race.A
   Our current plans are to run the Pantera in the HSR sprint races which
   end before the start of the 24-hour race Saturday at 1 pm.A  We will be
   running the Panoz in the 24-hour race. So it will be a busy 4-5 days of
   racing two cars down there, and we will likely recruit another driver
   to share the duties with us.A
   Also, thanks to the several POCA members that stopped by.A  It was
   great to meet the new guy and see some of the old faces again -- and
   Steve, I hope to see your Pantera next time!A A
   I have to retrieve the cameras from the race trailer -- I have video
   from the Pantera at both Portland and Road America, and also from the
   NASCAR at the Pantera from Portland.A  I will try to get something
   together in a few weeks.A A
