You obviously nailed your time/speed average to do that well so congrats again....I'm not surprised by your 2nd place....as I recall you trophied in Nebraska at the SORC before.....but come on you pussy.....were you really worried about 220 oil temps... or was it the 100+ ambiant heat and humidity? HAHAHA</div><div><br></div><div>I've been following John Tiemann in his replica GT40 since he first started running it and it runs as good as it sounds. You didn't mention John's average speed but I am sure if he was hitting 200 in straights he must have averaged 150-160 yes? Worth mentioning he is a great driver.</div><div><br></div><div>What average speed did Jack run? 20th Place? Hell if
you can't win, place or show, I'd still rather be the fastest or the slowest car as long as I was having fun which I am sure he, you and everyone else at the BORR were. </div><div><br></div><div>Which is one more reason I liked the La Carrera road race in Ensenada or the La Bufadora Hill Climb...who ever had the fastest speed in each division won. </div><div><br></div><div>TPR dying? Well it ain't dying yet in California, Nevada or Nebraska! </div><div>JB and I should make it next month and I think Rowdy and Bud and maybe 2 others (Frank Cirrincione & Jim Wallace?) will be at the SORC in August......JB and I plan to fly out to Nebraska in August to cheer on the troops and then bragg we have the fastest course average. ;-]></div><div><br></div><div>Seriously, Rowdy and Bud ahve done a great job banging the drums and rattling cages and getting the word out.... and you know thats NOT easy when EVERYONE with a Pantera can barely
stay awake. Which is why I am buying a slow boat this summer. </div><div><br></div><div>No Pantera's at the BORR? That only proves once again what old Drill Instructors used to say...and that was, that there are only two kinds of people that come from Texas........one was a cow with no nuts. . . And yea the other is GAY.... ;-)))))) </div><div><br></div><div>Waiting for the Hawk, Kirby, or Gray in Texas to roast me alive ;-]> </div><div> </div><div><strong><font color="#0000ff"><em>Mad Dawg Antenucci, Flame Suit On <br></em></font><font color="#ff0000">Team Pantera Racing</font></strong> </div> <div><em><strong>The 1st & still the only vintage race team in open road racing <br></strong></em><font color="#0000ff"><a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.teampanteraracing.com">www.teampanteraracing.com</a></font></div><div><br></div><div style="font-family:arial, helvetica,

<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>
