    thanks, I've been searching for an in-car video.

    Not as impressive to watch as Ari Vatanen though. Pity they sealed the road.

    That helicopter footage was terrible, wasn't it?

    Impressive in a different way to Vatanen, I guess. Blame the Sierra Club for the sealed road :(

    It's a Pantera with a 351, I can't imagine it NOT being muscled up. :)
    It had that nice, serious horsepower "rumpty rumpty" sound at Auto Italia in April, would be a blast to drive.

    But if going to race it in that muscle car series you need the model that came out with the wider rear tyres otherwise you are restricted to too narrower rims. I learnt this after talking to a Pantera racer at Winton.
