Hello Bjoern,<br>
<br>
It would seem those of us who have called the TireRack have either
stumbled on the same guy or in fact had different guys. But each
time we've had someone on the phone who had access to date codes and
was willing to physically look at inventory.<br>
<br>
When I called, I got guy named Hunter. I explained that I was with
Team Pantera Racing and that we had specific tire tech rules at the
Silver State Classic Challenge and that I wanted the absolute latest
date codes he could get me. He came through with dates from 2015.<br>
<br>
David Adin published Hunter's phone extension in a previous email,
extension 4744.<br>
<br>
Earlier, we had a contact named Todd, at 1-800-428-8355, ext. 4673
and his email is <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:todd@tirerack.com">todd@tirerack.com</a><br>
You might try Todd first through email. If that doesn't work,
you'll probably have to call.<br>
<br>

put a Team Pantera Racing windshield decal across the top,
one on the back valance and you are good to go. We don't
mind watching all the -other- vette owners squirm when we
come around. :) I think one of Bjoern's cars wears a set
of TPR decals too.<br>
<br>
Oh.... and speaking of which... checking out the
subscriber list, I find that poor Bjoern isn't on the
list. Well, being the Uber IT kind of guy I am, and
knowing he likes to hang out with the best at SSCC, I've
manually subscribed him.<br>
<br>
Welcome Mr. Flesland to the Team Pantera Racing email
forum. It's a little unlike that -other- forum you may be
familiar with ;) Don't let the long periods of silence
bother you either. When it's not race season... well,
there isn't much to talk about.<br>
<br>
Mr. Adin sir, grand Poo-Baa... did you get to Texas for
that TWS event? How about coming to play with us in Ely?
The girls miss you man, they saw the photo you posted and
wanted to know who the tramp was kissing your cheek; they
promised some "hands on" attention (whatever -that's-
supposed to mean).<br>
<br>
JB, see if Erik can come again, even if he doesn't bring
his Pantera. Hey, better yet, tow -his- Pantera to the
race and have him drive since yours is still in surgery.<br>
<br>
Dawgy, hey I hear you on the hot temps though it's finally
cooling down for a spell up here at the Pantera Research
Institute - Pacific Northwest Division. The -smart-
highway contractors always do their stuff at night, and
amazingly enough tend to finish ahead of schedule and get
decent bonuses. You need to work on Paul to make sure
he's got everything caught up and under control so he can
take five days off work to party with the big dogs. He
needs time off just like anyone else. Besides, he hasn't
experienced The Brazilian Girls. Rowdy says he'll take it
easy on them at SORC and with a month off in between, they
should be well rested to party hard with us.<br>
<br>
Alrighty, the countdown continues, y'all have one less day
to get shit done.<br>
<br>
Tomorrow, I'm taking the Pantera to a friend who just
recently traded his GT5 for a classic and rare Shelby.
I'll have him take it for a test drive to give me another
"butt-in-the-seat" impression of what we need to do. I
figure I'm so used to the imperfections that I don't know
what they really are. Then, with whatever time we have,
we'll address whatever we can in his well appointed shop.
Maybe I'll get some photos while I'm there.<br>
<br>
If the prognosis is pretty good, I may order Tires from
The Tire Rack next week. I just need to look up the
"insider" guy we found so I can get some really recent
date codes. How did everyone else make out talking to him
and getting tires?<br>
<br>
Still two hours left in Friday (at least on the West Coast
USA), party on. As for Bjoern... uh... Good Morning. :)<br>
