<DIV>BBORR 2011 report - sorry, NO Pantera content!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Unlimited was won by some frekin' corvette that average
165.888. second was J Tiemann in his GT 40 averaging 160mph w/ a
trap speed of 202. If you ever get the chance to hear this puppy w/ the
unmuffled 180 exhaust, have a tissue ready. Charlie Friend had a dizzy
fail and the big mopar had a fire.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The only Pantera people I recognized were Jack Houp (former Pantera now
GT40 driver) and Michael Frazier.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>M. Frazier was 5th in the 120 class - fast by .050 mph. </DIV>
<DIV>Jack was 20th in a class of 29.</DIV>
<DIV>David got a second place trophy - no competition in my class. I did
clock my tech speed of 124 in the traps, the little Miata pulling with all its
heart!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Weather was WAY hot ( 95 or 100) - I didn't think my car would make it (
220 oil temps), but all was in control.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Only 68 corvettes entered this year - it has become tiresome! I guess
TPR is dying . . . . .</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Good to hear Darryl put in a decent time at the Mojave Mile, at least
SOMEONE is driving a Pantera these days.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>all the best to my Ford friends . . . .</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>David</DIV>

<DIV>"It was kind of exciting, with fire and
everything!<BR><BR> <BR><BR>When cranking over the engine, fuel gushed
out the secondary vent tube. "</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>OK kids, listen up!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>A couple of winters ago I was converting the V8 Miata from EFI to
carb. This involved a fuel pressure regulator and a new HEI ignition
system.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>First, I plumbed in the fuel system. Everytime I checked for
leaks I had one fitting that would leave a gas smell on my fingers.
Eventually, this was fixed (I thought) so I hooked up the ignition system
and tried to start the car.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>No start. WTF? I says to myself.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Check the fuel, yep pressure. Try it again. . . .. no
start.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Better check for spark . . . .</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Even a small fire, in the garage where the Pantera lives (that is
connected to the house) is a BIG freakin' fire. (Hint: turn off the
fuel pump before jumping out the a flaming car. Trush me.)</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>So, I picked up the fire ext. placed by the car (I thought I was no
dummy . . .guess again) which oozed some stuff out of the nozzle that
dripped on my shoe. (sound familiar old tymers?) Fire is getting
bigger.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><U>$#^&^&$% </U> run in the adjoining kitchen for a
salad bowl full of water. If you guessed this WASN'T enough water you
win the prize.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>While I'm having visions of a melted Pantera and a crsipy house
(burning car is on jack stands, no chance to push it out side) I calmly
walke out the garage door, picked up the garden hose, turned it on full and
put the fire out. Note to self: don't forget to spin the motor without
plugs to clear the water.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I believe the barely detectable gas leak had leaked a puddle onto the
carpet below (safety hint).</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><U><STRONG>Be careful, have a back up and don't mess with gas in a
closed area.</STRONG></U></DIV>
