[DeTomaso] New Zealand ORR event with Pantera

[Mad Dog Antenucci]

Hey Robert,
   
  Thanks Robert for sharing the news! Most outstanding on the Speed Channel TV coverage and congrats to the Pantera team Of Peter Cullen/Jenny Chisholm....great looking Pantera too.
   
  Sounds similar to Pan Americana and La Carrera in Mexico but with speed limits and no locals running across the road in front of you....wot fun is that?! ;-]> 
   
  Five months until Texas & Nevada ORR schedules begin....Team Pantera Racing will pay the registration and expenses for the first Kiwi or Aussie team to run a Pantera in the states.

  Possible new venue for Team Pantera. 
Speed Channel had a program "Dunlop Targa New Zealand 2005" appears to be an ORR type event with multiple days & multiple stages. There was a yellow Pre-L, Pantera midway through the program. No mention of the Pantera or of the Driver/Navigator in the narrative. Upon doing a Google search of the event results indicated Peter Cullen/Jenny Chisholm were the Driver/Navigator. Do any of the forum participants have further info on this car? Below is a link with more event info.
Event runs through the country roads like high speed rally event with timed stages. Does not appear to have restrictions on car/engine configurations or modifications. Competitors are limited to a fixed number of tires (6?) for all the days/stages. Competitors choose a compound for the entire event and must run that compound for entire event. Also if one exceeds a 200KM/HR speed limit one will incur a 5minute time addition, if additional tires are required additional time penalties will be added. 

Car # 474 - De Tomaso Pantera - Peter Cullen/Jenny Chisholm
