Pantera- An Inside Look

[Ratickle]

I am old BUT not that old, I started racing in 1975.
I am the only person that I know that has raced in the decade of the 70's 80's 90's and the teens. (last race Key West 2003)
Maybe one more last huray, never know......
Rgds,
PP.

1975 was his final year. I knew it was close. I'm not sure what races he ran in 1975, I'll try to find out.....


He should have still been running the 36 Cig though...

Here is a picture of my Father racing in 1980 in a Pantera 28' with triple outboards. Not sure where the picture was taken. Anyone recognize the shoreline ? Thinking maybe Michigan or in N.J. ?
