Re: "Live" from Indy!
Well, we are still at home. Had to go buy 4 new batteries for the motorhome. At least it quit in the driveway instead of on the road somewhere. Still had the original batteries in it and 5 years old. I was going to give you the saga of the Cuda after we got on the road, but looks like that is still going to be a while yet. We have owned the 71 Cuda since 1980. Originally was a 383 and raced it like that for a while. It was white then with blue. Then Larry put a 440 six pack in it and it was yellow and black. The last time it ran was at Rockingham in 2002. Was going to fix it up a lot nicer over the winter. Well that was 6 years ago. Work kept getting in the way of restoring. So he bought Jim Whiteside's 71 Charger (the Private Lee) so we could race in the meantime. Then he decided he would get back on the Cuda and not race until it was finished. So that is where we are now. Larry has touched every square inch of this car to finally get it finished. And he has been meticulous at every detail. So now it is Panther Pink and pretty. But what an ordeal to do one over from scratch. Wiring, interior (lots of new parts that don't fit and you have to modify). So he is now working on the springs and weight so hopefully it will go straight down the track for the 1st time tomorrow at Indy. So I am sure once we finally get to Indy we will be back in the back 40, but come on by and look at our pink car and have a drink with us. Boy are we ready for that drink!!
More later. Patsy |

Thanks, Patsy> Patsy, thank you for what you do, giving us reports before/during/after the races you and Larry attend. Living on the wrong (west) coast makes it impossible to attend all the races I would like to be at. |
