Alright everybody -else- (except for David and Mad Dawg.



      We need your nominations or votes for the 2016 TPR Awards.  Read 
the     email, from the bottom up and get me your votes no later than 
November 1 (that's the first Tuesday in November, next week, just 
before you have to sacrifice your nuts on a burning fire and 
bloodlet your manhood in the US presidential election (assuming 
you'll be able to stomach the experience)).



      Vote TPR

      Vote early

      Vote often

Nominations




Hey all you race proven slackers and slacker 
wannabees.



                          It's time for the 2016 TPR award nominations.  
A                         reminder of what they are:



                          The Gary Hall Memorial Award

                          This honor is awarded to the Team Pantera 
Racing                         member who shows outstanding support and 
dedication to both the DeTomaso marque and the 
TPR team. It is someone who is not afraid to 
push the limits of technology utilizing both old 
and new part and who participates in racing 
events in a continuing effort to preserve the 
driving heritage of the Pantera.



                          Ellis Woumnm Memorial Iron Man Award

                          This honor is awarded to the Team Pantera 
Racing                         member who shows stamina in the face of 
overwhelming odds. They are someone who has 
worked hard against deadlines, parts shortages 
and other difficulties in order to participate 
in an Open Road Racing event with Team Pantera 
Racing. The honoree selected must successfully 
finish the race and not disqualify. They must 
show team spirit and a dedication to preserving 
the heritage of the DeTomaso Pantera.



                          Sweet Old Bill Award for Selfless Giving

                          his honor is the only award given by Team 
Pantera Racing to non-members (in addition to 
members) and is a reflection on SOBills spirit 
of giving to the Pantera community. Nominees 
come from a list of those individuals who have 
unselfishly provided free assistance to TPR 
members and other Pantera owners in the spirit 
of "paying the favor forward." These favors come 
in many forms and are highlighted by efforts to 
provide sound counsel, technical advice, parts 
or services in a free and friendly manner that 
improve the Pantera ownership experience for 
everybody, with no other expectation than you 
passing on the knowledge or help to the next 
person who may need it.





                          Last year, the 2015 awards went to:

                          Iron Man - Asa Jay Laughton

                          Gary Hall Memorial - Bob Radefeld

                          SOBill Award - Paul Katchadourian



                          This year saw the following racers and 
non-race                         team members:

                          - Mark Skwarek - Pantera

                          - Bob Radefeld - Pantera

                          - Bud Hower - Pantera

                          - Frank Cirrincione - Pantera

                          - Dennis Antenucci - Pantera

                          - Paul Katchadourian - Viper (yes, a Viper, at 
least it has a "P" in the name)

                          - Peter Menyhart (SSCC crew)

                          - Asa  Jay Laughton (SSCC crew)



                          My nominations are as follows (and remember, 
I'm                         the President, and this isn't a democracy) 
;)



                          Iron Man - Dennis Antenucci, for overcoming 
some                         interesting obstacles in his preparation 
for the                         race this year.  Somehow he managed to 
overcome                         them all, either on his own or with the 
enthusiastic help of others, making the race, 
passing tech and finishing a respectable last 
place at the fastest speed in his class.  
Besides, he hasn't had a team award in a while 
and this year I think he deserves this one.



                          Gary Hall - Tough call here, Paul has been 
very                         supportive of the entire team the past 
three                         years.  But he drives a Viper, which 
breaks the                         rules.  So my second nomination would 
be for Mad                         Dawg.  Can we give two awards to the 
same person                         in one year?  Is this Team Pantera 
Racing?  Heck                         YES we can!  If we want to, we 
CAN.  And if we                         can do -that-, then we can give 
it to Paul, even                         if he does drive a Viper.  
Besides, this is mob                         rules.  So what does the 
mob have to say on this                         one?



                          SOBill - Peter Menyhart, for his selfless 
sacrifice of time and effort to attend the SSCC 
each year in nothing more than a capacity to 
help out with his expertise.  It also helps that 
he can drive a tow rig and trailer to the finish 
line on the morning of the race, giving the 
racers one less thing to worry about.  Peter has 
been preparing his next Pantera to race and each 
year he's a little closer.  Maybe next year 
he'll make it.





                          There you have it.  Nominations will close on 
Wednesday October 5.  Then we have voting by a 
select few individuals, who may or may not have 
been bribed.



                          Asa  Jay

                          PS.  Nominations are now open for President.  
Nominations will stay open for about an hour so 
hurry up.
