               <br clear="none" />email list since ex-el-presidente' mentioned she was coming to SSCC this

               <br clear="none" />
               <br clear="none" />It's time to get our game on.
               <br clear="none" />
               <br clear="none" />Mark just sent word that his Pantera is back together and ready for the 
               <br clear="none" />road.  He'll be arriving to the SORC on August 5.  That's only three 
               <br clear="none" />weeks away.  So this is a reminder to all our intrepid Pantera pilots 
               <br clear="none" />running very soon.
               <br clear="none" />
               <br clear="none" />Grab your checklist and make sure you are ready to go.
               <br clear="none" />- Check the expiration dates on your Harnesses
               <br clear="none" />- Check the date codes on your tires

               <br clear="none" />- Check your personal gear (helmet, suit, gloves, etc.)
               <br clear="none" />
               <br clear="none" />For those doing SSCC we'll start going over the list bit by bit in the 
               <br clear="none" />coming days, so get ready.
               <br clear="none" />
               <br clear="none" />For those doing SORC, now's the time to bone up on the last minute 
               <br clear="none" />items, double-check everything and then have your neighbor check it for 
               <br clear="none" />you -again-.  We want a safe run for everyone.
               <br clear="none" />
               <br clear="none" />Rowdy, great job getting the folks motivated.  Please, just don't wear 
               <br clear="none" />out the Brazilian girls before we can have them for Silver State.  Did 
               <br clear="none" />Franky get his Pantera ready this year?
               <br clear="none" />
               <br clear="none" />Dawg, you better make sure your body/paint man gets ItBeWild done on 
               <br clear="none" />time.  How's Russ coming along with the engine inspection and refresh?
               <br clear="none" />
               <br clear="none" />JB, yea... well...  trying to keep a cap on that much estrogen in the 
               <br clear="none" />house is tough...  so maybe this year you navigate for me instead.  If 
               <br clear="none" />my car blows up, then we're even. ;)  Otherwise let's get Erik and 
               <br clear="none" />others on-board to get you back in the race this year.
               <br clear="none" />
               <br clear="none" />Everybody else, just make it happen; get it together and bring your 
               <br clear="none" />Pantera to SSCC this year.  It won't be much longer and you might not 
               <br clear="none" />find a Pantera at these events anymore, so do it while you can.
               <br clear="none" />
               <br clear="none" />Besides, there might be a $10,000 prize purse this year.  Yea... maybe 
               <br clear="none" />the SAME prize purse that's gone UNCLAIMED in the last SEVEN years.  
               <br clear="none" />Nobody's had the balls to beat the challenge previously but I'd say of 
               <br clear="none" />anyone, Mark has the best shot at it this year.  If Mark can average 160 
               <br clear="none" />MPH and finish the course, and Mad Dog drives slower... the $10K is 
               <br clear="none" />his.  How's that for some motivation?
               <br clear="none" />
               <br clear="none" />As for the rest of us, we need to do some serious fund raising.
               <br clear="none" />
               <br clear="none" />Thanks to Mad Dog, we again have sponsorship from Katch Environmental.  
               <br clear="none" /> From my end I've started a GoFundMe page specifically to get -me- to 
               <br clear="none" />SSCC this year.  I set a pretty lofty goal but then again I have a 
               <br clear="none" />motive to donate half the funds raised to the ISAAC Foundation, a local 
               <br clear="none" />charity that provides funding for Autism Therapies in the Spokane area, 
               <br clear="none" />and maybe help out the rest of the team too.  You can find the GoFundMe
