Vol. 1
CONFESSIONS OF A PORSCHE JUNKIE As interest rates soared in the winter and spring of 1980, and my architectural practice ground to a screeching halt (it could only have stopped faster with Porsche brakes), I faced a problem-What to do with my life. I packed my 914-6 for the long drive from Jackson Hole, Wyoming to the San Francisco bay area to look for work and a new lease on life. Little did I know at the time that I would fall into the life of a Porsche junkie! The drive from Wyoming to Berkeley is always an interesting one. It has its highs and lows, but this trip was one of the most memorable. I had never driven my (214-6 on dry, open roads before. After a trip over Interstate 70 to Mountain Home, Idaho, I turned south towards Elko, Nevada [after a short stop to reset my timing, coming to a lower altitude and dealing with my Marelli distributor]. I had never driven the Mountain Home to Elko route before; little did I suspect what lay ahead. Down out of the twisting, mountain roads I came; 55 was merely my shift point out of second gear. At 75

and 80, the timing chains of my 0-cylinder engine began, to hum a perfect tune. A distant site caught my eyes. I stared in disbelief at what lay ahead. I was descending onto a valley floor with a road as flat as a frying pan-dry, smooth, and straight to the horizon. I checked my map and looked over the topography. Nothing in sight. Not a building, cow, horse, or person. The map showed a straight stretch of close to 100 miles. My. speed went up 100... 110... 115. I held 115 mph.The noise inside my cockpit grew increasingly loud. I put on my sound supressor earmuffs to reduce the noise level. Ten minutes elapsed, and I had eased off to 110 mph. This couldn’t be real! I still had not seen anything, not even a cow. I cut back to 100 mph. Thirty-five minutes had gone by and I still had not dropped below 100 mph, "This car’s performance just blows my mind." "Dr. Porsche really knows his stuf!!" Every so often I kicked up the speed to 110 just for variety, it was almost too easy. Finally, the signs of civilization. A small Indian reservation. Forty-five miles an hour seemed like backing up. I came out of the reservation and followed a stream into a , canyon. Beautiful banks, sweeping turns-what a blast! I was A.J. Foyt, Andy Granatelli, and Woody Allen all rolled into one. I kept time to my stereo and just turned and turned and turned. What a car! Just fast and steady. [cont’d.on P. 4 ]

Saturday, May 23rd at about 1:30 p.m., I found myself watching the POC/PCA Golden Gate Region Time Trial at Laguna Seca, As the cars sped past my vantage point just past turn 3, I wondered why they were going so fast or going at all. I was also curious why there was nobody helping me out of the car. My vantage point was the passenger seat of Rick Jackson’s 911 now perched at about a 50° angle against the wall of tires we had just hit at about 70 mph. This part of the story has a happy ending. There was minimal damage to Rick’s car. It was repaired and he proceeded to post the winning time for his class on Sunday. Outside of some sore muscles and a cut on my nose, both Rick and I came out unscathed-a tribute to the safety of the car and track.
Time to pull together all the loose ends of another issue. Where to begin-so many bits and pieces of i information to pass along. Withoat a doubt one of the true delights of being editors is receiving the material submitted for publication. This month’s feature article, CONFESSIONS OF A PORSCHE JUNKIE, is the first of a two-parter. The second part of this delightful article by Peter Leffe will appear next month. Thank you, Peter, and we can hardly wait to read the rest of the story and see the pictures.
The question I would like to raise is that of the instruction of corner workers. Whenever a speed event is run and non-professional course workers are used, adequate instructions should be provided them so they know their jobs. The Golden Gate Region of Zone 7 had a printed handout of instructions for the workers. This coupled with a worker’s meeting would provide the instruction needed, yet I know of at least one person not at the meeting who was recruited to be a turn worker and given no instructions on the use of flags. She handled the flags for turn I. When the accident occurred with Rick’s car, no communication was given to the course workers as to what happened or what flags to display. The first people to reach the site were spectators, not a turn worker with fire extinquisher in hand. When the tow truck and ambulance were on the track, they were being passed by participant’s vehicles, The course was finally red-flagged [shut down] at the insistence of Tom Marx [POC]. The person from PCA/GGR in charge originally told Tom he would not put out the red flag.
Lee Burton continues to keep us well informed on the Time Trial series. Bill Leflang [whose name we have been misspelling for months-we’ve got it right now] reports on the Rally Sunday School. By the way, Bil! has said he will do it again for those who couldn’t make the last one. Jack DiRosario has shared some very interesting tech information. We get lots of requests for this type of information, so if you have a couple of tips you would like to share, send them along.
Both POC and PCA/LA are extremely safetyconscious where speed events are concerned. I personally advocate the use of professional course workers for our events. This makes for a safer track, more track time for participants and an overall better run event. It is my belief that most entrants would be happy to have the entry fees increased by $3-$4 for this purpose. If we in Zone 8 cannot supply the professional workers for our events, then we should have a mandatory course worker instruction program in conjunction with our driver’s instruction program!
Rick Jackson’s "Corkscrew" article is a very warm and personal account of what Los Angeles PCA is all about: fliendship, cooperation and team spirit that is infectious amongst everyone involved. Thanks Rick for saying it so well.
We’re introducing a new feature this month, LE’I-I’ERS FROM OUR READERS, We thought it might be a neat way for members to communicate, share, agree, disagree or whatever. It’s short this month, but we know it will grow. June’s PORSCHERAMA has been nicknamed the "mystery" issue. Somehow the dateline disappeared. Hang on to it, who knows, it may be come a collector’s item! Photo credits this month go to Lark [BBQ meeting], Rick Jackson [Phoenix Time trial], Bob Fern [L.V. time trial], John Fels [Laguna Seca] and Ham Jenkins [New Member Meeting]. While we’re on photos we forgot to give credit to Judd Boykin and Nell Hauft for the photos of the Concours. Enjoy taking pictures of the events? Why not share them with the club.

Again, I am just amazed by my Porsch~’s performance. Fully loaded and hugging the road like no tomorrow. I remember my days in engineering school and the instructor I had for dynamics, Dr. Horyack, who was a former engineer for Porsche I remember his broom mustache and his thick German accent. He drove a Chrysler, but every time he talked of his days with Porsche, his eyes took on a special glow. He’s dead now, but I still remember his Porsche glow. My radar detector hasn’t even peeped-just open road. I burst out of the canyon after twenty minutes to find seventy-five miles of straight open road. A hundred miles an hour seemed almost commonplace by now. Elko was on the horizon. I slowed up and continued on to Battle Mountain where I stopped for the night, Battle Mountain is always fun for me. I have a friend there named Larry Coy, who is the under sheriff of Lander County. We spent the night swapping stories about guns and Porsches. Larry always reminds me of Wyatt Earp-mustache, cowboy boots, and gunbelt. We parted company after a breakfast at the Owl Cafe and a quick lecture on speed traps, The rest of the trip is routine. By the time I hit the California state line, traffic is evident-I know an adjustment in both driving style and lifestyle are upon me. Three days have passed since my arrival in Berkeley, and I’m bored. Not much work here. A little drafting for a friend, but really slow in architecture. I can’t sit still. I’ll run out of money! My mind won’t let me rest. I knew the time had come to visit my old hangout and get a little piece of mind. I slipped behind the wheel of my Porsche and headed off to EASY. Every year I’d make an escape from the Wyoming winter and come to Berkeley for a month or two of warmth. Every trip I’d always end up at EASY. What’s EASY, you ask? European Auto Salvage Yard. A Porsche-only wrecking yard. Walking in the door in Emeryville is like going back to the clubhouse. Jim and Bill, the owners, are glad to see me as always. So is AI, the one and only employee. My eyes almost popped out of my head once again as I entered the warehouse-forty wrecked Porsches, plus parts from two or three hundred more. All the cars are new ones since my last visit four months earlier. The whole thing has a strange effect on me. On one hand, I’m calm. I know I’m among friends. On the other hand, I’m excited. All the new cars to crawl around in and look for treasures. A screw here, a new sunvisor there. New wiperblade arms with perfect paint to replace my pair that have been chipped on the road.
By now it’s time for lunch. And true to form, the EASY crew invites me to join them. Lunch at EASY is a special event, but I’ll tell you more about that later. I say good-bye at closing time after a wonderful day. I haven’t been bored a minute. I’m hooked. "1’11 be back tomorrow," I tell Jim as he starts his 9~ ~T for his trip home. Bill. leaves in his Lincoln. Bill loves old Lincolns, and they fit his six foot-eight, two hundred and fifty-pound frame. , Night turns into day, and I find myself waiting for the door to open at 9 a.m. As the day unfolds, I begin to butt into conversations, answer questions, and dash around picking up parts. Another great lunch and a full afternoon. I feel like I’m working again. I really love it. Day three, and I’m back again. I ask Jim if I can work in exchange for parts for my car and he agreesl The days roll one into another; I’m issued EASY blue coveralls; I’m part of the crew now. And what a crew it is. No chiefs.... just indians. Jim sweeps the floor, Bill cuts up cars, and I answer the phone. The phone that never, ever stops ringing. I carry the remote telephone to all corners of the shop. I talk while I’m under cars, while I’m on top of cars, while I’m inside carsalways Porsche cars. All I do all day is talk about, feel, take apart, and sell Porsche parts. Motors-we have nineteen running 9~ ~ motors, fifteen 356 motors. I can’t even count the 944 motors. Brakes, we have mounds of calipers. make an attempt to pull the light alloy calipers out and hide them. We each have a stash. Our own secret place in the shop where we hide special goodies. We even hide them from each other so that we can give some lucky customer a special treat-an early 9~ ~ horn button switch, a perfect original 356 interior light. Two weeks have passed without making a cent. I ask Jim if he could possibly pay me. We agree on how much and that it’s only temporary until I find another job as an architect, i’ve made it. I’m an official EASY worker, a Porsche junk man, a Porsche "junkie." i’m hooked. -PETER LEFFE [Ed. Note: Continued next issue]

TECH TIPS MEMBERSHIP MUMBLES FOR JULY Here we are with over half the year behind us. How time flies.., It’s been a busy 6 months here in the Membership Corner. It’s been so busy that when ONLY 8 new members got in before the end of May, it seemed like it was a slow month. However, if we averaged only about 8 per month, we would be adding close to ~00 new members a year. That’s a rate of growth that any club would be proud of attaining, New members to the club are the lifeblood of enthusiasm and new ideas that keeps the club alive and interesting to those of us who have been around a while. If you doubt this, I invite any and all of you to attend the new New Member Meeting and see the spirit that is so infectious that it has old and new members leaving the meeting and looking forward to the next time we get together, So...drop by in August and see the magic happen! New members this month are: Thornton Abel Timothy Board Tom Clancy Steve Metz Ellis Onstad Chris Posner Phil Roman Brad Wakeman

I. None of us wish to experience a flat tire, especially when it happens on the freeway and at night. For those of us blessed with the collapsible "emergency" spare [1974 and later] here are two time-saving tips. First, does the tongue of the jack fit all the way into the square jack hole? Mine didn’t and it was the factory original that came with the new car. Check this some day at home when you have a spare [pun intended] moment. If it seems to bind, a little grinding on the jack tongue will solve the problem. Secondly, if you do get a flat, staff with the inflation of the tire as your first step and then proceed with the jacking of the car and dismounting of the flat - otherwise, you have to wait ~0-~5 minutes while that little compressor inflates the spare. 2. Tired of that white chalky powder that forms all over your battery terminals and helps eat holes in your luggage compartment carpet? A simple fix is two doughnut-shaped battery terminal pads, which are chemically treated to prevent this -about $2.00 a pair at most Sears battery service centers. The pads are good for quite a long time -at least ~-2 years. Those who bemoan the increasing amount of plastic found in our Porsche’s will have to become resigned fo the inevitable. Plastics are light, strong and easily formed into difficult shapes. For any automobile manufacturer, that means direct savings in material costs and decreased production time. The 924 Carrera GT has eight exterior body panels made of polyurethane. The rear spoiler is made of an integral skin polyurethane foam. The other seven - front Spoiler, rocker panels, front fenders and rear fenders are reinforcd reaction injection molded - RRIM [remember that acronym, more auto manufacturers will be using it in their sales brochures], The very short reinforcing glass fibers, which are part of the process, give the polyurethane an excellent combination of flexibility and strength, yet the seven parts only weigh a total of 30.6 pounds. In the paint department, a polyurethane paint is applied to these parts, which resist cracking, chipping or otherwise being damaged when the panel is deformed or flexed. In fact, paint technology is at the point now where automobile manufacturers will soon be forming body panels, such as fenders, from prepainted steel; the process is called "coil coating".

PCA-LA 4TH ANNUAL PARKING LOT BBQ Every year around the middle of May the parking lot at the South Coast Corinthian Yacht Club comes to life with the sounds and smells of a good o1’ fashioned spring barbeque. Since we started doing this four years ago, the Parking Lot BBQ has become one of the most popular events on the PCA-LA schedule. It all started when Dustin Janes offered to chair a social event. He had this terrific recipe for marinated flank steak. No one knew whether a barbeque in the middle of the Yacht Club parking lot would attract anyone, but we decided to give it a try. The first year we had so much fun, word spread, and by the second year we had a lot of members coming to see what all the fuss was about. Now we even attract guests from other PCA regions in the area who come to find out what the secret is to this successful event.
So many people asked about it that Dustin and his wife offered to share their marinade recipe for the flank steak. The amounts shown are for one flank steak. 2/3 cup apple juice 2/3 cup vegetable oil 2/3 cup soy sauce juice of 2 lemons I bay leaf I clove garlic, crushed 6 drops liquid smoke
Well, it has a lot to do with the great food. Along with the steak we have salad and rolls and beans and dessert and lots of beer and wine. And it just happens that when you put together a lot of nice Porsche people and let them eat and drink and talk about their cars, and you add some nice Southern California weather, you can’t miss. This year PCA-LA added a new twist to the eventthe INDIAN GUIDES GRAND PRIX, chaired by Jose Ochoa. To raise money for the YMCA Indian Guides, club members bought small wooden car kits, fashioned them into racers and put on a challenge cup derby for everyone’s entertainment. The finished products ranged from a basic square box with wheels (John Williamson’s entry] to a sleek modified version that won the race for Martin Frith. Other entrants included Bill Bohn with a Formula ~1 car; Bill Leflang, whose "3-wheeler" took the prize for~stock cars; Bob Housman, who modelled his car after his own black 356; Bob and Connie Fern who carved a 1930’s style racer; Louis Fols, whose plastic body kept falling off; Scott and Sue Vernon, whose 917 won the prize for best appearance; John Fels "silver beauty" with 17 coats of paint; Carmela " Tellez’s "tie-dyed" entry and Carla Dominquez’s Indy-style car that was so light it hardly moved the scale. Even the "hot shoes" agreed the whole thing was almost as much fun as time trialing (well, not quite]. This year the BBQ was sponsored by ROGERSOUND LABS. Owner Howard Rodgers exhibited three Porsches equipped with ROGERSOUND LABS systems. All agreed that next year, if Howard’s willing to return, we won’t need to hire a band! The sound was outstanding. Our thanks to Howard for his support.
To prepare the flank steak; trim fat and membrane; pierce steak all over with fork and sprinkle with meat tenderizer. Combine all the marinade ingredients and pour over steak. Allow steak to marinate at least 15 minutes [up to six hours] at rodm temperature before barbecuing. Ann Wang
LAS VEGAS TIME TRIAL Well, let’s See, April was "Wind in the Willows," June is "Wind in the Willows", so May must be "Dust in the Desert", as 15 hardy souls made the arduous trek to boring Las Vegas. I didn’t hear of any PCA big winners in town, but at the Speedrome, 8 LA drivers took their classes, and for some, very respectfully. Saturday’s weather was a bit different from what I am used to in Las Vegas, as it was windy, threatening rain, cold at times, and dusty. The Las Vegas region made a great effort to clean the track from all the dirt left from an off road race, and after many long hours managed to clean the groove around the twisty 1.7 mile road course. By Saturday afternoon, the 42 cars had a fairly clean track, and the beer bust, as usual, was a great success. Sunday was a picture perfect day-warm and sunny. Most of the race tire shod car drivers didn’t remember that the Las Vegas track ate rubber as bad as it did; and before timed runs, most of us had our left rears jacked up, and we were scrambling to borrow tires for our timed runs. Of the competitors running for points, Judd Boykin in the Porschop car ran the fastest time with the exception of Carl Young [he ran "exhibition"], who beat Judd by .01 ~1 seconds. With Nicki Tonious’ help with timing, Judd took "X" class, and Connie Fern, with Bob Fern’s support took "XL". John Williamson and Coralee Ellison ran John’s 914 to class wins with John turning a I d2.908 [must be some kind of record]. Len Cushman and Virginia Battelle ran Len’s 73 9d dS to class wins with Peter Leffe also competing in his 72 91 dS. Rick Jackson in his 91 dT took "F’" production and Bob Trousdale in his 71 91 IT took the "F’" stock class handily. Pete Zimmermann in. his blue baby [as well as myself] had tire problems, but made our timed runs with our wives Karen and Toni looking on. Jack DiRosario helped everybody, and received some quick laps with several skilled drivers. The Las Vegas" Region put on a very good event. While many of us spent time creating dust clouds, everyone had a great time and should keep Shelby busy for the June Willow Springs event.

July-the middle of the year-is here already. It’s usually a little less frantic for PCAas we "turn down the boost" on the Calendar, when PCA families go on vacation, July I will see the Board meeting at John Fels’ home. Call JDF at [2131476-4755 for directions, We’re looking forward to membership suggestions for activities, meeting and tech subjects, tour ideas, etc. Like any democratic body, PCA-LA can usually be influenced by a few loud voices. So make yourself heard. We’re also looking for ideas and people for our 1984 Olympic Parade plans, On July 11 we’ve got two events to choose from~ POC is having a slalom at LAPD on Terminal Island. This will serve as a warmup for the annual PCAPOC Challenge Cup Slalom in August. LAPD is a training ground for the police black-and-whites; it’s a neat medium-speed road course that’s ideal for us Porsche pushers to learn more about our wundercars, The other event on July 11 is a Newsletter Workshop, hosted by ConnieLark’nAnn. It’s a chance for members to become involved in the creation of our great newsletter and find out all the technical details about how it’s put together. See the Calendar for directions and time. Our monthly membership meeting will be held at the Yacht Club on July ~6. At press time, we’re still working out the details for subject matter [hopefully you can look elsewhere in this issue for more info on that], The MAIN EVENT for the month of July will be our Zone 8 Rally on July t8. Prepared by our resident rally expert, Bill Leflang, this event is the high point of our rally year. Bill’s rally school in May gave all the entrants some useful lessons in rally rules arid techniques. Let’s see some results on the 18th.’ And don’t forget, this rally is also a PCA-POC Challenge Cup event, Saturday, July 25 our tech meeting will be held at Norris-Rayburn Design Engineering [see the Calendar for directions]. N-R will cover all the wonderful things they can do to modify your car. John Fels has been doing a splendid job of organizing our tech sessior~s, and some of this year’s best turnouts have been for tech meetings. This meeting should be more of the same. The National Porsche Parade this year will be held in Ashville, N.C. beginning Sunday, July 26. Although it’s a long, long way from home, a few PCA-LA stalwarts are planning on making the trek. I’ll be glad to put you all in touch. Call me [7~4] 831-3799.
Turbocharging, customizing exterior and interior and exotic conversions is the subject of our Tech Meeting for July. Rick Norris and Neal Rayburn, owners of Norris-Rayburn Design Engineering, have invited us to visit their shop and view what they are doing to further improve our Porsches. "Car and Driver" magazine has called them the Buchmann Brothers or B + B of the West. We’re going to see 930 Targa’s with 935 front ends Jail steel] turning out 500 horsepower, 924’s converted to factory type G.T. and producing over 200 horsepower, turbocharged Rabbits and lots of other goodies. Complet.e body modification and engine balancing and blueprinted rebuilding are all done in their shop. , If you were at this year’s "Auto Expo" you had to have seen their exhibit as their’s was certainly the best of the specialty builders represented. The attention to detail, the perfect fit of the body parts, the finish, and of course the mechanicals, are all a part of the Norris-Rayburn effort. Of course, none of this comes cheap, and if you get turned on by what you see, be sure to bring your checkbook as they will sell you a complete car for about $65,000 or modify yours for something in the neighborhood of $25,000. This meeting came about at the suggestion of Fred Hess to whom we are grateful. Two other topics have been brought up recently that seem to be of interest: towing a Porsche and security systems, if someone would like to write an article or plan a meeting on either of these subjects, we’d sure like to hear from you. On another subject, if you are interested in the 356 and are not familiar with the "356 Registry," you’re missing out on a truly good thing. Membership dues are only $10.00 a year and for that you get a really fabulous bi-monthly magazine [the current issue runs 32 pages] full of information that is exclusive to the interests, needs and unique problems of the 356 Porsche owner and enthusiast. Areas covered are technical, restoration, a special four-cam section, a comprehensive classified section and many other areas of interest to the 356 person. Also, the Registry has a number of events including a "West Coast Holiday," which this year will be held at Lal~e~Tahoe. To join, write Tom Oerther, 5035 Salem Road, Cincinnatti, Ohio or speak to our own Club member, Bob Raucher about further details. July Meeting will be at Norris-Rayburn, 58~0 West Third Street, Los Angeles [near La Brea] at 10 a.m., Saturday, July 25, ~98~.
13 Our May membership meeting was held in the Marina, the clubs annual parking lot BBQ. Master Chef, Dustin Janes was at the grills filling the air with a delightful smell that had everyone’s taste buds working. When all was cooked and served, your taste buds were not disappointed! Thanks to all who helped set up, serve and clean up, and a BIG THANKS to Dustin for a wonderful meal. The entertainment was provided by two people. "George" Housman who provided the band and Jose Ochoa who chaired the INDIAN GUIDES GRAND PRIX. The wooden racers were provided by the Indian Guides and were sold at April’s membership. There were many variations on the basic kit, from stock square to low and sleek. A track was set up on the stairs of the SCCYC and elimination runs were held. The results... Bill Leflang-Stock-lst Marty Frith-Modified-lst The best looking car award went to Scott and Sue Vernon for their replica of a 917. The RALLYE SCHOOL held on Memorial Day Weekend had 11 cars turn out. Bill Leflang was the rallye master and instructor and I think its safe to say we all learned something new. Car No. 4 came in dead last but happy. It wasn’t that bad was it Carla?! Thanks to Jodi Jacobson for helping at the check points, to Ann Wang and Steve Weilert for doing registration and to Bill for a very educational day. As for the scoop from the board, we got some news from national on our parade bid. They were very pleased with the bid sent in by Bob Housman, but they voted not to accept any bids until the summer of ’82. Bob was a little down after hearing the news, but has since pulled himself together and has vowed to return with a bid that no one can refuse in ’82!! Well, that’s all for this edition of Secretary Scoop, ’til next month.
RALLY SUNDAY SCHOOL--Bill Leflang On May 24, 1981 eleven rally cars turned out to participate in a school and rally which illustrated the concepts learned. We covered forced turns, the definitions of a SIGNAL and a STOP, how to use a NOTE, the difference between at and after, DYS checkpoint procedures, WOF, SOL, CAST AND OPP, how to score a control card, and what to do at a NOT THROUGH STREET sign. These will all be used in the LA Region Zone 8 rally scheduled for July 18. RESULTS: PLACE DRIVER & NAVIGATOR "I S. Weilert A. Wang *2 K, ito *3 B. Housman M. Housman 4 J. Clyman J. Clyman IV 5 L.

THE CORKSCREW-LAGUNA SECA TIME TRIAL For those members who were unable to attend the Laguna Seca Memori~i Day Time Trial in Monterey, I would like to share a few thoughts with you so you will appreciate what you missed. Without question, it was an incredible weekend. From the comments of the participants, this Time Trial was one of the most exciting and competitive events to date, and it was certainly an event I will long remember. I want to heartily thank the Event Masters, Tom Marx, Tom Lawson, and Glenn Hills for their ha~-d work and many hours of preparation in organizing and running a well tuned event and thank the Northern and Southern Regions of PCA and POC for contributing so much to make it successful, Also on hand were photographers from Moto-Foto, who captured the perfect weather and scenic beauty of Laguna Seca as a backdrop to the color enlargements of each of the competing Porsches. [I have asked Moto-Foto to cover the Riverside Tim@ Trial on September 12 and ~3~ ~98! with the Ferrari and Pantera guests,]
when I decided to demonstrate a new skid pad technique of taking Turn Three. It resulted in major. metal body reconfiguration to my clean car, but unfortunately also produced a few minor injuries to Judd and myself when we tested the strength of the wall on the exit of Three. Judd was unable to drive the remainde~ of the event, and did not experience the exhilaration of Laguna from behind the wheel, which was in my view, the biggest loss of the weekend. It has been my experience from my recent introduction to both the Porsche Owners Club and Porsche Club of Amef"ica about two years ago, that members joined to enjoy their cars, learn more about them, to drive them, shine them, restore them, and maintain them. The principal asset of both clubs was the cars. However, I propose to you that our greatest assest are the people. I was so deeply touched Saturday by the caring hands of friendship that I want to publicly thank all of you who inquired, supported, helped, lent tools, and encouraged me not to give up. Some of my favorite events in both clubs have been unrelated to our cars, Riverside seats to Can-
THE CORKSCRF=W-LAGUNA SECA TIME TRIAL The drivers at Laguna Seca had the opportunity to challenge one of the world’s most famous circuits, The course earns its reputation for its treacherous corkscrew, high speed corners, difficult passing areas, and its implications for mistakes which leave little if any margin for error. Tom Marx demonstrated his mastery of Laguna Seca and his GTO car by taking Fastest Time of the Da~i honors, although he received no award or trophy for i~ Connie Fern was surprisingly fast against the m÷n [a few seconds back of Marx], and easily won Ladies X Class, while Jack Guy had to pour it on to beat the Northern Region H Stockers who came to the track with some awesome race mochines. I have not seen the published official results as yet, but Bob Gager turned a low t :22, which I think dominated the G Production Class, as well ¢~s besting many of the H Production and J Production times, I deeply regret that Judd Boykin did not have the opportunity of driving Laguna Seca in the new X Class Porsche with Connie Fern. PCA-LA Rec3ion President was attending driving school as a passenger in my 911 Targa on Saturday afternoon
Am and IMSA races, social events, and the meeting of valued friends. It is the caliber and quality of our members that make our clubs interesting and successful. Now back to the Laguna Seca destruction derby. was out of competition, sore, frustrated, and disappointed that Judd could not drive his car. In my despair, the event was deemed over .as far as I was concerned, and I covered my lonesome wreckage with a car cover so as to protect the car and its owner from further embarrassment. But there is an experienced racer among our ranks who has been there before and seen much worse. He carefully checked the suspension, it was straight. He then removed some of the damaged body pieces, there was clearance. The engine was intact, good oi! pressure and the transmission seemed undamaged. He rolled the car and it tracked true. I was unaware of any of this. I will never forget that day, nor the helping hand and expertise of Bob Fern. Bob came over to me and made sure that I was alright. He apprised me of the damage, told me it would take several hours of work and asked if I was still interested in competing if we could get Number 16 running again. That is all I needed to hear. I could not
believe it. I am glad that there are some people who never give up until the checkered flag is waved, and who love competition as much as I do. We [mostly Bob] installed a new seat on the driver’s side with new rails and hardware, since both seats were torn from their mountings from the impact. We repaired the heat exchangers, bandaged the rear and front spoilers with tape, put on new tires only to find that the brake line had been ruptured somewhere in the central body canal. Bob drove me into Salinas and picked out some copper tubing fittings, and hardware to do makeshift brakeline transplant bypass surgery, which he had finished by noon on Sunday, just in time for the timed runs.
We usually do not consider Time Trialing our Porsches a team sport. But think about it. We loan and borrow tools, equipment, wheels and tires, offer assistance to even our competitors, trade advice and teach each other the courses. It may not seem like much until you need someone’s drill or race tires. You do not find this teamwork in most other sports, or in professional racing. Lastly, it is most definitely a Driver’s Education event and we should continue to advertise our time trials as such. My lesson would have been very costly on the freeway, and Judd and I came out very well because of the Clubs’ insistence on safety equipment. I loved the Laguna Seca Memorial Classic and hope we can make it an annual event on our calendars. Due to the many participants, efforts will have to be made to expedite the time competition. We ran short of time at Laguna Seca on Sunday and half way through the competition the event masters announced that they had changed the rules so that only the first lap of each driver would be officially used. Those running after the announcement knew that their first lap would be their only lap and made it count. Those of us who thought we had two laps and made the second lap hotter than the first, were denied the opportunity to re-run under the new lap rule. I think this is terribly unfair to all concerned [like informing a football team that all points scored on fourth down will not be counted because the game is running late], and I do not want to see this example set as a precedent for future events.
With the assistance of Steve Matilla, David Erb, Judd, Bob, Connie, Jose and many other friends, I shared a teamwork that would be the envy of Dale Inman’s Nascar pit crew. I climbed back on the horse after my tumble, and drove a very conservative first lap under the clocks to insure that everything would stay together, which it did perfectly, and then scorched one hot lap that was so fast, and scared me so much that I could not keep down my cookies. That lap was four tenths of a second faster than the other four or five cars in my F Production Class. I won best time. I was so proud of Bob Fern and his work, and of the encouragement of my friends after what had happened on Saturday, that I forgot the soreness, financial implications, and hassle of car repairs. With Bob’s assistance I can understand why Peter Gregg won so many races in Porsches and dominated the IMSA and Makes series. Bob, how can I ever thank you for your help at Laguna Seca, and your advice and assistance during the past couple weeks?
Nevertheless, whether I finished first or fifth, I DID finish, and I want to express my appreciation to all my friends in both clubs who made that possible. I will do my best to have the car ready for Willow on June 27 and 28, 198~ but if the car is not there, I will be to root for my friends.

Another function of putting the newsletter together is stuffing, stapling, labeling and bundling. We’re turning thi~ activity into a social event. Last month Reta and Fred Hess, "George" and Bob Housman and Bob’s mother-Jean, Nick! Ton!us and Judd Boykin joined us on a Saturday afternoon. The’ work was done in short order and lots of socializing followed. Our thanks to them for joining us on such short notice. This issue, if all the timetables are met, will probably be put together somewhere around Willow Springs. Sound like an activity you’d,like to get involved in sometime? Give us a buzz on the HOTLINE 398-2217. John Fels brought us this month’s new advertiser, B & M Electronics, Inc. Welcome! Without our advertisers we cannot maintain and hopefully continue to improve the quality of the newsletter. How about your business - a business card size ad might be just right. Your business doesn’t have to be car related. Our one big disappointment last month was the total lack of response to our request for an Advertising Manager. Hopefully, we’ll have better results this month,
