>> RE video -- I will share those with you racers.   Sharing racing links to be criticized by people who don't race doesn't sit well with me.  The last videos from Laguna my poor son got dragged over the coals and the kid (now 37) has raced professionally since he was 15.  Yes, the second gear synchro needed to be replaced, but we knew the Quaife was going in. He laughed when they said I needed to replace him or kick him in the ass.  He is faster than me.

>> But, you guys get it.  We will get some Road America videos - the race car Concours and Parade through Elkart Lake downtown is Friday night and we entered the Pantera -  probably still in primer!!!!

>> Jim Koslowski is crewing that weekend.  He can get some video too.

We have entered the Pantera and our 2009 Norma Prototype.  I will drive the prototype and Tony will drive the Pantera - so are reversing the driving duties from Laguna.

We get to race there instead of in "Group 6" melee because we stayed so close to the 1972 Group 3 rules.  I

>>>>> If so, please share with the racing guys.  I copied Asa since I know he is interested.  But I am not anxious to hear all the grief again about how nuts it is to race the car so hard and I don't deserve body parts since they are rare and others need them to get the old cars back on the street.   I figure you guys all get it.  But to be frank, I think our racing (OTR and vintage) does just as much and is just as important to the brand.  
>>>>> 
>>>>> BTW, the Quaife barely fits -- about 1/8 inch clearance to the back, but so far we think it will work.   Axles line up, shift linkage adapted, and it static shifts (not running) better than the ZF.  Adaptors for the axles were $7,000 - so we made our own in our machine shop.  We are working on the clutch/indexing/etc.  According to Quaife, if I make this work, I will be the only one -- all their advertising notwithstanding.
