Stranger Danger

I know the road from Vegas to Pahrump well as we staged
our Pantera track events there for many years. One year
we had three Panteras pickup speeding tickets coming back
from the track.. most of us were doing 130 plus in the flats
but slowed going up into the mountain areas where the officer
was waiting. Mine was only for 85 mph but the other two were
written for 103 and 112... The 112 guy used a ticket fixer in the
area.. a few weeks later he received a notice for his arrest... it
took a month or two to resolve that matter

Just thought I would post this picture, because I thought it looked cool.

I'm supposed to be working on another car that I started 6years ago, yet I can't seem to stop flogging this one. Ran Daytona with Aaron Oberle, Tom Farrington and Jimi Day this past weekend. It was probably the most awesome thing I've done in a car.

The high banks at speed are just hard to describe, adjectives like awesome seem to fall short. Hanging out with your buddies, is why we do what we do, but banking is a really close second. Thanks for talking me into it Aaron.

Pics are from Gary Rosier

Other then a big gearing faux pas, leaving me with a 145mph top speed. The car worked great, it is a hammer, beat on it and toss it back in the box.

Ron,
Great shots... great to see you out
running the car hard. I have spent countless
weekends working on my car and missing a
track event or running the car. The balance
of playing with one and working on the other
is always an issue.. every once in a while its good to
run one so you remember why we build them

I may finish my Firebird some day but I have been
running my Pantera over to the coast or to CC or
just for a drive.. Track day coming up
