Open ocean racing and no Panteras???
 

Hey what is up with the Pantera people.....we have only 5 weeks to go before the Don Aronow Memorial Race....real open ocean racing again....and no entries from the Pantera crowd.

Jo, Pepe....are you guys in on this?

How about the other Pantera owners with those great ocean running boats? This is your chance to live it not just talk about it....this kind of racing may never happen again, do you want to say it was here and you didn't do it?

Entry form and rule package can be downloaded right off the HORBA site and mailed in.

Keep the great racing tradition alive.

Gotta love this one

Jo, I'll drive you throttle. :cool-smiley-011:

My money is all tied up right now, or I'd be threre!

Oh, wait a minute.....I don't have any money!

Charlie,
I am working on it. There is plenty of time left!
What are you going to race? A banana?
How many boats are registered?

I think that Butch Ryan is racing a 24' Pantera, and I spoke to a couple of guys that are considering it.

that boat looks familiar....

If only I knew how to drive well I would be there with it in a second. sounds like a blast.

Charlie if I still had my Mig 28 I would have jumped all over that race. However, we will probably participate with our 38 Cig T/G race boat.

Jo will teach you on the way to Bimini, you might want to jump off in Bimini if the gulfstream is rough.

Should it be rough, you will find out as soon as you loose Miami in the horizon if you like it or not!
Later,
pp.

PS, Are you on or off???

A year from now, I'd be ready for this.
I'm still in project mode.

I've been wanting to see this happen for a long time.

I would want to run it just to say I did it. Wouldn't even care about winning. Just to be able to say I did it.
Anyone have an open seat??

Pepe

My dream has come true. My boat for this race will be the original Don Aronow race boat ....the Formula 233 that Don named ..The Cigarette.

Don drove this boat in the Miami to Key West race in 1963.

I can remember wanting to race this boat so badly when I was a kid and now the owner has graciously asked me to come aboard for the race. What could be better than that? Yeah, being in a Pantera, I know!!!!
