[MICHAEL DREW]

Scott,

You need to pay more attention! Plenty of Panteras have finished at LMC including this year.

>> All,

>> We have called the Pantera up to run the 24-hour race, taking the place of the Panoz.  We were having issues with the new Panoz motor, and the motor finally let fo.  So, are here and going to run the Pantera in the Classic 24-hour instead.
>> 
>> The Pantera has already run 5 sessions this weekend in the HSR Sprint races, with it's fasted time at 2:11.5.  Because we didn't run the qualifying events for the Classic 24-hour event we will be starting from the back of Group A (pre-73, early FIA Group 3 and 4 cars, I believe in the GTO class) for the Classic 24, which is fine for a long event.  We will be driving conservatively with goal of finishing the event.
>> 
>> In addition, Goodwood sent some reporters over from England to cover the Daytona event.  They enjoyed seeing the Pantera race, and filmed the car on track and a fun 15 minute interview about the car.  Goodwood also mounted an in-car camera for the upcoming 24-hour race.  They are planning a short feature on the Pantera, which is really nice of them, but who knows if it will ever get done.
>> 
>> Anyway, I will post updates and results starting tomorrow.  There are six groups, so we rotate out every six hours (i.e., four one-hour races every six hours).
>> 
>> Fingers crossed.....we are asked a lot from the car.
