PORSCHE PARADE

horizontally opposed Welcome to the second issue of Porsche Parade for 2022. Porsche Clubs celebrate 70th anniversary “The first Porsche club was founded 70 years ago on 26 May 1952. Today, there are more than 700 Porsche Clubs worldwide with in excess of 240,000 members in 86 countries. This venerable global ecosystem of marquespecific clubs is unparalleled in the automotive industry in both its form and its size. A variety of activities and celebrations are planned throughout the year to mark the 70th anniversary. In May 1952, just two years after the brand’s first delivery of a sports car in Germany, Porsche customers joined forces to form what is now the Porsche Club Westfalen (though its original name was Westfälischer Porsche Club Hohensyburg). The first international Porsche Club outside of Germany was established in Belgium in 1953; the Porsche Club of America, today the largest Porsche Club in the world, was born in 1955.

“Porsche Parade” is the official magazine of The Porsche Club of Victoria Inc. (ACN 005 727 0942)

Around the globe, roughly five new clubs are set up every year. These are autonomous, independent, registered associations or comparable legal forms and are organised jointly and on a voluntary basis by their members. Each club therefore offers a unique programme and range of services – from drives and motorsport events to social gatherings and technical lectures on vehicles and e-mobility to ‘Concours d’Élégance’ and multi-day Porsche parades.

To mark the anniversary in 2022, Porsche is planning a worldwide campaign with a variety of communications and events under the banner of ‘Enduring Passion’. In addition to traditional Porsche-branded media materials, this includes a central content hub, on which the Porsche Club members can publish their personal club stories.”

president’s message

2021/22 Mark Horton Andrews President president@pcv.com.au

Melanie Treloar Vice President vp@pcv.com.au

Welcome to Porsche Parade number 2 for 2022. The enthusiasm that I mentioned rippling through the Club in my last report has translated to a swathe of events in the first half of the year and a fantastic program ahead for the second half. Thanks for building and delivering on this large program of work go to our very many volunteers, including members of the Social Committee and the Social Director Linley Baxter, the Register Captains, and their Director Paul Sbrissa, and the Competition Committee and Officials lead by Competition Director Andrew Smith. We are keen to feature volunteers in future editions of Porsche Parade. In this edition there is a report on the Club Night at Porsche Centre Brighton. It was my very great pleasure to publicly acknowledge the contributions of Alf Carrigan, Tony Carolan and Michael O’Brien. It is important to take time to record our appreciation for the efforts our members put in to making your club one of the most active in Australia.

In electrifying news (sorry) I am pleased to announce that the Club has formed a Taycan (EV) Register. Porsche predicts that over 50 percent of models delivered from 2025 will be electric, and the Club is very keen to embrace this electric future as we already have a growing number of members with Taycans. We will continue to monitor Taycan ownership and consider opportunities for those owners to either be hosted on other Register Runs, or when we think we have enough we will organise the first Taycan run! In late June we offered a mid-week run specifically targeting our women members. We are keen to make this a regular feature of our program. The Club is exploring a range of new styles and types of events so that we can truly provide something for everyone.

I take this opportunity to remind members of the expectations of the Club on drives on public roads. We have a written acknowledgment on the entry page, and it is customary for run organisers to include this in We recently enjoyed their briefings. The the hospitality of words are to the Porsche Centre effect that the run Doncaster and is being conducted Brighton for under the auspices Club Nights and of the Porsche a very special Club Victoria, Club Night at Porsche Centre Brighton invitation Workshop that we all have an Evening at Porsche Centre Melbourne. An obligation to comply with the Road Safety initiative that was kicked-off under past Rules, and in addition the Club requests President Tony Carolan was to provide that all members drive in a courteous each of the Dealers with a certificate of manner, being considerate to other our appreciation, recently completed at the participants and members of the public. Doncaster Club Night. We appreciate the support of Porsche Cars Australia and the Thanks to our administrative team for the three local Dealers, and it is important to ongoing support they provide members. With not only express our thanks with words but the large number of events currently being in our actions and support for the marque. delivered, we sure are keeping them busy. There is an emerging issue for the Club with the number of cancellations we are experiencing for events. With the number of fully booked events increasing, the impact of last-minute cancellations on other members (who miss out) is very unfortunate, and the impact on our administrative team is a double whammy. Please be as accurate as you can be when registering for events. If current trends continue, we may have to look at options to find a solution.

PORSCHE PARADE

from pit lane Since our last edition of Porsche Parade there’s been a massive amount of track time offered to our members. With the easing of Covid restrictions, the Competition Committee has been able to put together an impressive amount of events and the masses have responded accordingly. Full fields have been participating, with waitlists for some tracks. The Mobil 1 Porsche Club Vic 360 Regularity at Sandown is always a highlight on our calendar and again this year was very well supported. Unfortunately the weather didn’t play ball with wet conditions in place for the majority of the day. Participation from a number of clubs is the essential ingredient to make this event work and once again Andrew Bonwick and Grant Stephenson didn’t disappoint with their recruiting capabilities. Cars of all shapes, sizes and varieties were on display with a group of Mazdas from Bathurst taking the overall win in trying conditions. Well done to them and all those who participated, and we look forward to holding this prestigious event again next year on the weekend of March 18 – 19, 2023. Please see a comprehensive report further on. Whilst not a PCV event, Porsche Club SA hosted an event called the Porsche Club Nationals at Australia’s newest Circuit, The Bend, over the Easter weekend. Drivers from Queensland,

NSW, SA and 2 from PCV competed over the Friday and Saturday in a State of Origin style event. Unfortunately for PCV with only 2 of our members involved, accumulating points was a difficult proposition. Having said that, our current Club Champion Stefan Wojciechowski became the first Porsche club member nationally to break the 2 minute barrier in a road registered car, and won the trophy for Fastest Road Car. Well done Stefan. Our next event on the calendar took us back to a little track that always gets great reviews from our members, Broadford and what a beautiful day they turned on for us. A crisp morning turned into a beautiful late autumn day with mild sunny conditions, and boy did that help the times. With some recent track upgrades and re-surfacing, conditions could not have been better. Andy Hall wound up his 991 Cup Car to set a new PCV outright track record. Well Done Andy. Everyone I spoke to after this event always wants to know when we’re coming back to this ripper little track so close to home. From such a lovely day at Broadford, we headed off to Winton for our “double header” weekend. Unfortunately for everyone the Weather Gods weren’t so kind to us over the 2 days. The morning was damp to begin with, but just after the briefing the first downpour of the day hit us. This sent some drivers scrambling for their full wet tyres and others on AO5’s heading to their garages to sit out the first session. The drizzle continued most of the morning and it wasn’t until just before lunch that a dry line began to appear. Tyres were being changed like a SuperCar garage with the sun trying to poke its head out. Then just as quickly as things began

to dry out, a 3 minutes downpour put an end to any notion of slick tyres being an option for the remainder of the day. Yours truly decided there and then that it was time to put the car on the trailer as there wasn’t much more to gain. Sunday was our Motokhana day and the weather was probably worse than the day before. I must say at this point, the unsung heroes of the weekend were the volunteers and flaggies who stood out in the terrible conditions so the drivers could do their thing. We often take for granted their role but without them we couldn’t have the Competiton we all crave. Special mention to Peter Harrison for providing the “live” timing that works so well at the Motokhana. We may have the option of heading back to DECA in 2023, so that’s something I’m working on and something we can look forward to. With events scheduled for Sandown, Winton and Phillip Island in the second half of the year, we are looking forward to a full season of competiton compared to the last 2 years of restricted days. Please see a full report for these events further on in this fantastic magazine. For now, that’s all “From Pit Lane”. Andrew Smith Competition Director

the socialist Your Social Committee hopes you are enjoying the variety of events that are coming your way. As I write this the inaugural Women’s Run is underway. Interesting to see how that goes? You may also have noticed a change in the content of some of our events, especially club nights, where we have placed a greater emphasis on socialising. Don’t worry there are still some blockbuster presentations under development. We are also varying the food offering with Porsche Centre Doncaster being very different to Porsche Centre Brighton, one being traditional finger food while the other was Asian dishes served entertainingly from Wok BBQ’s, both quite different from the sit down format at Fox Museum. We survey every event and and while none of the formats attracts universal praise we do detect strong interest in variety but also that members prefer not to be surprised. In future we will be very explicit about

the content and style of the food offering in the event promotion. The valuable feedback from the surveys helps us to deliver high quality whilst also managing costs to help spend club funds carefully. How about a beer and pies night?

Tasty offerings. PCB Club Night. Similarly with club runs we are continually seeking to improve the meals content. Recent runs have also seen us traversing some fabulous traffic free drivers roads combining fun driving with

great scenery. The amount and variety of these relatively unknown roads within easy striking distance of Melbourne is amazing. We just have had to find members who know where they are. Our car displays and special events have been a highlight with the car display at Lorbek surprising with it’s content and the workshop evening at Porsche Centre Melbourne proving very popular with a very long waiting list. Hopefully we can offer another such event for those who missed out. In closing I always thank the social committee members who continue to amaze with the huge amount of work they do to bring these events to you. Similarly we greatly appreciate the hard work of the staff and generosity of the principals of the dealerships who help with many of our events. See you at the next event. Linley Baxter Social Director

Wine & Food Dinner - The Ticket in Town! Story Noel Leung Photos: James Kelly Wednesday 4th May 2022

Following the raging success of the inaugural PCV Food and Wine Dinner at The European, the Club’s second dinner was held at Bellota Wine Bar in South Melbourne - a stylish extension of the neighbouring Prince Wine Store, celebrated for its impressive wine selection. Set in a classic Victorian building, Bellota’s upstairs dining room was the perfect intimate setting on a cold Melbourne night (the opposite of the sultry evening of the first event). As we all arrive and choose a seat, there are many familiar faces as well as some new ones, all of whom were lucky enough to reserve a spot at what is fast becoming the ticket in town on a Melbourne school night. For this second dinner, we journeyed to northern Italy, starting with some moreish spiced lamb arancini and a glass of Ca del Bosco Franciacorta Brut NV. Not to be mistaken for Prosecco, Franciacorta is made using the methode champenoise (yes the same method as champagne) resulting in a more delicate mouth feel and more complex flavours. Definitely the highlight of the evening for this author, who will be adding Franciacorta to the repertoire as an alternative to champagne. Having settled into our chosen seats, our master of ceremonies, Mr. Greg Burns gave a short welcome. With a quick introduction to Bellota and the wonderful team looking after us for the evening, including Billy, our very knowledgeable and engaging wine guide, the night was off and running. Judging by the conversation and laughter heard around the room, it didn’t take long for our attendees to get to know each other, but Billy had no troubles getting our attention to continue our Italian wine journey (at least not at this early stage of the evening). Our second course was a wonderful porchetta carpaccio with salsa verde, 10

PORSCHE PARADE

caper berries and fennel radish which was paired with two single-vineyard white varietals from Pieropan in the Soave region: La Rocca 2019 and Calvarino 2019. Whilst both wines were quite different in style, after a bite of the succulent porchetta, the complex flavour profiles of both wines came through, the flavours evolving on the palate like the changing notes of a perfume – as Billy would say, just as a great wine should do. For our main course of bavette steak, romesco, oyster mushrooms and madeira jus, we tasted two red varietals - Cantine Rizzi Barbaresco Nervo 2017 and Gianfranco Alessandria Barolo 2017. The earthiness and tannins of the Nervo balanced the creaminess of the steak, whilst the Barolo was a delight - deep, luxurious and fruity, slightly more refined than the Nervo. Clearly both wines were a hit - with enthusiastic top ups of both, well after the perfectly cooked bavette steak had been polished off. Finally for dessert, the orange and bay leaf semifreddo, almonds and citrus caramel was served with the sweet Forteto della Luja Brachetto 2016. An incredible deep rose colour, the Brachetto was smooth and silky, cutting through the citrus and lightness of the semifreddo which was the perfect end to a luscious meal.

As the night drew to a close, we had all become well and truly acquainted with some fast friendships being forged on the common interests of Porsche, food and wine. There were even murmurs of kicking on at the bar downstairs, but alas this did not eventuate with the venue keen to wrap up the night, even if we were not. Thus we found ourselves waiting for our rides home, game of thrones style, on a cold wintry night, already marking the next food and wine dinner in our calendars.

The new Porsche 911

Sport Classic

PORSCHE PARADE

“Grey is never boring, quite often a statement and always cool.” ISSUE 2, 2022

Stuttgart/Australia. The new 911 Sport Classic is the second of four collector’s items that Porsche has presented from its Heritage Design strategy. A total of 1,250 examples of the limited-edition model by Porsche Exclusive Manufaktur will revive the style of the 1960s and early 1970s. Like its immediate predecessor, the 997-based 911 Sport Classic presented in 2009, the appearance of this model is inspired by the original 911 (1964 – 1973) and the 1972 911 Carrera RS 2.7. The 911 Sport Classic can be ordered now, with prices starting from $599,100^. Australian deliveries are expected to commence from Q4 2022. “The Heritage Design models represent the most emotionally driven concepts of the Porsche product strategy,” said Alexander Fabig, Vice President Individualization and Classic. “This unique approach sees the Style Porsche design department working with Porsche Exclusive Manufaktur to reinterpret iconic 911 models and equipment from the 1950s through to the 1980s and to revive design features from those decades.” Porsche is launching four limited-edition models over an extended period. The first of these was presented in 2020: the 911 Targa 4S Heritage Design Edition with design elements from the 1950s and 1960s. Porsche Design has also created a high-quality chronograph exclusively available to drivers who purchase the collector’s edition vehicle. The watch seamlessly picks up on numerous details from the new 911 Sport Classic design. As part of the Heritage Design Classic package, selected interior elements of the new 911 Sport Classic # will also be available for most current 911 models. Reinterpreting historical design elements The wide body – otherwise reserved for the 911 Turbo models – a fixed rear spoiler in the style of the legendary ‘ducktail’ Carrera RS 2.7 and the double-bubble roof underscore the distinctiveness of the new 911 Sport Classic. As with the first 997-generation 911 Sport Classic launched in 2009, the designers were inspired by the Fashion Grey paintwork of the early Porsche 356 when choosing the exclusive paint finish for the new limited-edition model. 14

PORSCHE PARADE

“The new 911 Sport Classic is the first vehicle to feature Sport Grey Metallic paintwork,” said Michael Mauer, Vice President, Style Porsche. “Grey is never boring, quite often a statement and always cool.” As an alternative to the exclusive Sport Grey Metallic finish, the new 911 Sport Classic is also available in solid Black, Agate Grey Metallic, Gentian Blue Metallic or Paint to Sample ##. In the interior, the iconic Pepita pattern can be found on the door panels and seat centres, while two-tone, semi-aniline leather upholstery in Black/ Classic Cognac provides an elegant contrast with the exterior colour. 550 PS for the most powerful manual 911 yet The powertrain concept is equally unique: the 3.7-litre, twin-turbo flat-six engine transmits its 405 kW (550 PS*) to the road via the rear wheels only. In combination with the seven-speed manual gearbox, the new 911 Sport Classic is the most powerful manual 911 available today. The gearbox has an auto-blip function that compensates for engine-speed differences between the gears with a brief burst of revs when shifting down. The standard sports exhaust system is specially tailored to the model for an even more emotive sound experience. The suspension, based on that of the 911 Turbo and 911 GTS models, meets high performance requirements: thanks to the standard Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM), its shock absorbers respond to dynamic changes at lightning speed. PASM is combined as standard with the sports suspension, which features a 10-millimetre-lower ride height.

Porsche Centre Melbourne Workshop Evening Wednesday 25th May Story: Justin Reed Photos: Linley Baxter and Porsche Centre Melbourne

PCM GM Piero Pellegrini welcomes the PCV throng. The invitation to explore a Porsche workshop as large and diverse as Porsche Centre Melbourne comes into my inbox rarely. Consequently, my response to the invitation took about a nano-second to accept.

First stop was an immaculately clean, white late 80s 930 Turbo SE. The 930 SE was not sold in Australia when new, but the specification of this UK market car, and last of the G series 930s was truly impressive.

Upon arrival we gathered around the Classic Corner of the dealership near a freshly restored and gleaming 993 RS. Beyond the large glass doors into the workshop, a variety of classic Porsches on hoists awaited us.

From here we moved down to the engine room, where Peter Bowen, Porsche Classic Master Technician took us through the engines that were currently being re-built. I asked what other engines Peter had done throughout his long career, and he reeled off every significant Porsche model from the Porsche back catalogue – 4 cam Carrera 356s, the high revving 906 derived engine from the original 911 R, 2.7 RS, 2.8 RSR, 3.0 RSR, 964 RSR, and more Cup Car engines than both he and Karl could remember.

After the introductions by PCM General Manager Piero Pellegrini, Peter Bowen and Cameron McConville, with over 70 years of combined experience between them, started the tour.

Following the engine room tour, it was over to a Taycan Cross Turismo in a specially equipped and isolated part of the workshop. As the car was lifted on the hoist, we could easily see the massive skateboard like battery pack, and the extensive cooling systems. Fun fact for the evening was that cooling of the battery in EV’s is one of the key determinants in extending range.

Plenty of interest in the 930 SE 18

PORSCHE PARADE

After we finished looking at the Cross Turismo – it was off to the food truck (parked conveniently near one of the workshop doors) for dinner. As we ate a Carrera GT (the race car derived Porsche hyper car from the early 2000s) idled close to the tables that had been set up for us.

The engine room The revving of the V10 signalled that we needed to be on the move again – through an Aladdin’s cave of back lanes and one-way streets around Collingwood to the Porsche Centre Melbourne Pre- Delivery Department, and then from there to the newly established dedicated PCM Motorsport facility. As we were welcomed by recently appointed PCM Motorsport Commercial Manager and credentialled GT, super touring, sports car and V8 Supercar driver Cameron McConville – our eyes were drawn to an amphitheatre of Cup Cars – ranging from the very first 996, right through to the newly introduced 992 variant. Taking centre stage was the Porsche Centre Melbourne entry driven in the Porsche Carrera Cup Australia Championship by Nick McBride.

Organiser Clyde White with Alison White members. Its popularity was clear from the very long waiting list. Perhaps next time….. Thank you from the Organiser Clyde White I would like to thank PCM and in particular Piero, Kate, Giles and Cam who were the architects of a fabulous Workshop Night, thoroughly enjoyed by our members, left wanting more such nights.

The newly opened facility will cater to the growing motorsport preparation and trackside support areas of club and more formal motorsport. Cam spoke about the Porsche motorsport pyramid, which starts at club level where an owner takes their road car to a track day. The next level involves running a motorsport car (such as a Cup or GT car) at club level super sprint and track days. After this, participation in championships such as the GT3 Sprint Challenge and finally Porsche Carrera Cup Australia occurs. To illustrate this pyramid and give it a realworld context we were then introduced to Matthew Belford, who caught the Porsche racing bug from his brother David (a Melbourne based Porsche restorer). Six years later he now finds himself competing in the Pro-Am class of Carrera Cup Australia, driving a brand new 992 Carrera Cup Car, fresh from the round win at Winton the week earlier. The evening ended with Marc Cini starting his 992 Cup Car, questions from the floor, and racing around Mount Panorama on a racing simulator. Judging by my time and the exterior condition of my GT2 RS at the end of 2 laps, some more practice is needed for me. Perhaps starting on the Porsche motorsport pyramid is a bit more distant than I first thought? Special thanks to Social Committee member Clyde White who worked closely and assiduously with Porsche Centre Melbourne to bring this wonderful event to life for PCV

Sunday 3rd April 2022

The 2022 Mobil1 Sandown 360 Regularity Relay was very successfully held on Sunday 3rd April 2022. The event is a large undertaking for the Club and enjoys the support of the Victorian Motorsport community, including representatives of Porsche Club of Victoria, the Marque Sports Car Association (MSCA), Motorsport Australia, and the Victorian Flag Marshal team. Thanks also to Kristy Roberts (timing), Emergency Response Services, WAP Motorsport, Pizza Party Hire, Code Black Coffee and the team at Sandown Raceway. 22

PORSCHE PARADE

Why is it called the 360? Well, 360 refers to the minutes of driving time i.e., six hours! The Regularity Relay is not a race with the aim being to achieve lap times as close as possible to the self-nominated time for each driver. The winning team averages closest to this target across all drivers (4–6 per team). This event favours the most consistent drivers, not the fastest. As in previous years, we arranged with the MSCA to use their Saturday event to provide an hour of practice. This also meant earlier track entry, vehicle scrutiny, and the ability to

set up for the event the next day. Inclement weather made itself known at Saturday practice which saw two red flag incidents and two consequent recoveries. The message for Sunday was clear: “Be careful out there!” The event once again attracted the support of Mobil1 and Managing Director Bruce Morrison of Motoractive joined as part of a team. The Club is fortunate to have such a significant sponsor support– the sponsorship is critical to our ongoing running of the event.

Adam Stafford

Bang on time at 10:30am on Sunday the first car from each of the 26 teams moved onto the Track behind the Safety Car (kindly provided by MSCA and Piloted by President Bruce Astbury – thanks). Each team had the aim of keeping their cars on track for the next six hours – easier said than done! Despite the weather and largely due to the respect of competitors, by 4:30pm six hours was up without major incident. The officials in the Control Tower counted down the time and another great event was done and dusted.

Together with Bruce Morrison, Motorsport legend John Bowe kindly assisted trophy presentation to the placegetters. Congratulations to the Panorama Mountain Men from New South Wales (Stewart Temesvary, Glenn Thomas, Gustavo Elias and Gregory Unger all in Mazda MX-5s) who took out first place with 173 laps at an average of 18.32 points per lap. On average, they missed their estimate of how long they would take to complete a lap by 1.832 seconds.

Porsche Club of Victoria honour was retrieved somewhat with Victoria’s Carrera Kings (David Mallinson, Mark and Thomas Callaghan Michael McLaurie and James Moyle, 19.97) coming in second place. In third place Triumph Racing (Philip Nicholson, Ed Ferguson, Alister Ondarchie, Robert Splatt, David Kelly, and Michael Kip) performed strongly but were unable to recreate their 2021 winning style.

Club Night Porsche Centre Doncaster Tuesday 21st June 2022 Story: Anna Cook Photos: Neville Sampson Captions: Paul Sbrissa & Astrid Diercks Coordinators: Russell Sturzaker, Anna Cook (Social Committee)

Our host, PCD GM Flavio with PCD sales member, Fabio. Yes, I got that right. With the conclusion of the formalities, the socialising continued while the Flying Woks caterers prepared their hawker style street food, fired-up the giant woks that flamed dramatically and dinner was served. Flavio Parletta Thank you everyone for your ongoing support throughout COVID. It was great to be back for our annual Club Night visit that kicked off with member’s heading to the bar for a refreshing glass, then catching up with fellow members; enjoying the display cars in the showroom including the popular i-Racing simulator.

The Porsche Club of Victoria’s passion for Porsche has always inspired me and at Porsche Centre Doncaster I have been focused on driving that passion throughout my team. We are really kicking goals at Porsche Centre Doncaster!

From the stage Linley Baxter, Social Director welcomed former President Tony Carolan also Barry Pritchett and Ursula Weidenmuller, President 356 Registry. Linley then announced that a women’s only run had been organised by Kon Gogos midweek, 29th June and had caused great interest. Linley advised that going forward the run will referred to as ‘Porsche Women Who Drive’ and will be headed by Melanie Treloar, Vice President, PCV.

Successful Initiatives include:

Winton Winter Sprints Story: Cameron Goodyear Photos: Tristan DeCarro

PORSCHE PARADE

Winton Weekend

Christian Fitzgerald

ISSUE 2, 2022

A full day of the long track awaited, whilst most drivers get their fastest time in the morning sessions, it remained wet which meant times were much slower than usual. Most were lucky enough to get one dry session in the afternoon, so we all had the chance to impress or at least score some reasonable points. Thankfully despite the conditions nearly all cars remained on the black stuff all day.

Back to Winton for the first time this year, this excited many who love the track. It was the start of the weekend for the double header with the Winton Motorkhana scheduled for the next day. For those still finessing elements to deliver a personal best lap (or even a lap record!) drivers could pick up where they left last time or for those new to motorsport what a great track to learn some more technical aspects of carrying corner speed over an entire lap.

Like each motorsport event there was a small contingent in entree class, this is a great way for novice drivers to get some track experience without the pressure of the clock. I certainly used this class as an introduction to motorsport and circuit racing.

The day started wet and cool as you might expect in June, all were hoping the rain cleared up, or at least stayed away for some of the day. The pit lane entry set up and garage configuration was not in our usual area as we had been allocated the V8 Supercar sheds for the day. This added to the excitement and allowed us to get even closer to some of the experience of professionals that race at the track, even if some of us are very much a novice!!

There were some close results across classes and the championship race for some classes remains very competitive.

Adam Stafford

All in all a great day out at Winton for PCV motorsport, the club returns to the track in August, it is always good to compare lap times and progress for those still learning. I hope to see many of you there again.

We also trialled a new process for lining up on the dummy grid based on ordering in line with the fastest time from the previous session rather than the previous self-seeding arrangement. This limited some overtaking and added another good dimension to the sprint sessions. Although it was a reality check for some in terms of self-seeding (I won’t name them…..!!), feedback indicated this was very popular with drivers and something to further consider at future events.

Many thanks to all the Officials and Marshals who help to keep everyone in-line and safe for the day (and braved the wet and cold conditions). It is a long road trip to Winton for this crew so they deserve very special credit as without them we could not do what we do on the track. Malcolm Batten

by Rex Broadbent as he made his way over to the timing van, but then sheepishly made his way back after being asked to vacate the circuit. Corrections were ultimately made after further corroboration by others. The wet day, meant the drivers preferred to stay in their cars, with the heaters on. Smoothest run of the day went to James Sanderson with a master class on how to use the handbrake. The quickest time went to James Kelly who went neck to neck with Bill Toohey and a new record set by Richard Catchlove, with the most WD’s. To the timers and marshals (in full wet weather gear) who are always first to arrive and last to leave, thankyou.

Tony Carolan (Past President) recieves caricature from Mark Horton Andrews Tony Carolan, as immediate past Present was presented with a framed caricature. Mark noted that Tony joined the General Committee in June 2011 and was Competition Director for five years at a difficult time for Competition. In October 2014 Tony was elected Vice President then in October 2018 was elected President including leading the Club through the pandemic. Mark thanked Tony for his wisdom and leadership, and also thanked Chris Carolan for her support of Tony and the Club. The third acknowledgement was the presentation of Michael O’Brien’s Life Member award plaque. Michael O’Brien was awarded Life Membership at the 2020 Annual General meeting, however due to the intervention of COVID presentation of his Life Member plaque was held-over until this Club Night. Michael joined the Club in 2005 and in August 2006 joined the Social Committee. He organised multiple runs and tours, such as to Canberra, Hunter Valley & South Coast NSW, and the Murray Valley. He became Assistant Social Director and then Social Director (for the first time) from October 2008 – 2012.

The showroom of Porsche Centre Brighton filled with PCV members gathered around bar tables talking and enjoying delicious finger food.

Other appointments included: 2007 Michael joined the General Committee and served as Treasurer. 2013 elected Vice President. 2013 CAMS General Official 2011 Lead Scrutineering for multiple years. 2016 Elected President

Members enjoyed the exotic display of vintage and modern cars. A surprise highlight was the rare Le Mans Porsche 956, with a torque power capable of moving tectonic plates and historically famous as the winning car in the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1983, codriven by legendary, Vern Schuppan. The simulators proved very popular both with spectators and drivers eager to experience racing a GT3 Cup Car and gain a place on the Seat Time challenger board. On hand to give helpful tips, were two experienced motorsport drivers, Courtney Price and Carter Fox. Club Announcements Master of Ceremonies, Linley Baxter, Director Social Committee, welcomed members including fourteen new members.

He also acknowledged the sacrifice and support of Christine O’Brien.

Courtney then pursued the opportunity to race in the Porsche Michelin Sprint Challenge and achieved the following results: - 2021 Philip Island 3rd place. (held the lead position most of the race in rain on a heavy track!) - 2021 Sydney Motorsport Park, 5th place (limited experience on circuit.)

Focused on racing in the Porsche 944 Challenge Series, Carter steadily saved and in 2021 purchased his 944 transaxle. However, disaster struck, and four months before his first race scheduled at Sandown, February this year, Carter was hit by a car and he suffered a badly broken lower leg. Luckily, he sufficiently recovered to compete at finishing 11th place! At the March race at Winton Carter finished 8th in his the car due to a head gasket problem.

PORSCHE PARADE

Porsches & Coffee Run to Macedon Sunday 5th June Story: Sam Nivas & Ablo Jallah Photos: Catherine Ruberto & Anna Cook

Bulla Meeting Point- Briefing Session with Kon Gogos (Run Organiser, centre) Attendance was surprisingly good given the weather and only a few members had to cancel due to expected bad weather which didn’t happen. After the few cancellations, 32 cars ended up participating in the run which is moderate but a good group of members. Including new members, Nicholas & Virginia Cable their first run, Samuel Farag and Henry Ng and brother Isaac Ng who were introduced to the group at the start. After a short briefing by Kon Gogos about the road rules and reminders of responsible driving and safety requirements new members were introduced to the group followed by group photos at around 9:30am. Shortly after 9: 45am the group departed the parking lot of BP Hungry Jacks 82 Bulla Rd, Bulla embarking on the twohour journey towards Mt. Macedon along the designated route. Members started by heading north through Wildwood, Bolinda and Romsey before turning north after Kilmore towards Pyalong and then south towards Lancefield.

On this day, there were few local drivers and no bikers on the roads (thanks to the weather) which were wet but for the most part sunny. Members even greeted by bright and vivid rainbow with all its majestic colours from the top of one clear unobstructed treeless hilltop. The view was truly magnificent even though the drivers may not have appreciated it as much as the passengers/navigators. Along the way not only did we enjoy our cars and the sound of powerful engines but also the beautiful shades of yellow, green and red leaves of shedding trees on rolling hills and meadows. Thick misty forest ranges with the occasional blue sky shining through openings of the raining clouds. Arriving at Mr. Cafe at around 11:30am marked the end of a memorable trip and a few more group photos. Afterward, members got to enjoy a well-deserved lunch and coffee break. Trips like these are trips that every sports car enthusiast must drive at least once.

Ten minutes into the trip though, came the first and only unexpected obstacle which was about a kilometre stretch of muddy and wet gravel roadworks caused by the rainy weather. Members were very careful and slow going across this stretch of road as no one wanted to experience any mishaps to their beloved cars. Luckily members went over this obstacle without incident and the rest of the trip was picturesque going through the scenic country roads towards the Macedon Ranges. Apart from the scenic beauty of these roads, driving through them would be otherwise pretty boring, but not this time. This time, driving on a convoy of super Porsche sports cars twisting and winding their way through these beautiful scenic roads has a magic feeling about it that is hard to put into words.

Midweek Flowerdale Run & Optional Overnight to Pinnacle Valley Tuesday 28th April 2022 Story: Kirsten Chalmers

Photos: Paul Blackie & Alison Belot

Stephen Lofthouse and car! DAY ONE What an incredible run! As a newbie to the Porsche Club I wasn’t sure exactly what to expect? Would I fit in? Could I keep up? Would I do it again? Well sadly the title probably gives the game away but let me fill you in on a few details: From the get-go I was lucky enough to meet some lovely people. Parked next to the first lovely couple (clearly veterans) who immediately introduced themselves and told me where to go and what to expect next. Ok, great start I thought. Not long after that, the lovely Alison introduced herself. Nice she took the time to find me, I thought. Following a short briefing we were on the way. While the procession of gorgeous cars of every vintage and description made their way out of town, I soon spotted my pace car. Something about this driver told me to stick close, he (or she) had something to teach me. And teach me they did. By pure luck I picked the perfect car to follow. Not too fast as to freak me out, not to slow as to bore me to tears. Something told me I was following a skilled driver too. As I tried to keep up I noticed he barely touched the brakes, just smooth and consistent through corner upon corner. Not unlike watching the synchronicity of a skilled skater carving his way on the ice, painting a picture of poetry in motion. There is truly nothing more 48

beautiful than watching a car being navigated perfectly to do what it is designed to do. Well that was a great start, but could the afternoon measure up? I mean wasn’t I owed a less than sterling second half of the day just to balance the score? As it turns out, no. Got out a bit late … that’s what happens when you get side-tracked taking photos of a plethora of perfect vehicles. But I found my way back on the roads and onto our next destination. Some pretty perfect route choices I might add, although this time sans pace car, I confidently navigated my way to our final destination with the help of InRoute. Honestly this App is brilliant for anyone who doesn’t like maps and / or doesn’t have a passenger to help navigate. Once again I arrived at my destination pleased that the roads, the car and the club had delivered on an awesome driving experience. Finally, and possibly the most daunting, the booked dinner. Truth be told I almost cancelled. Was dreaming up excused like headaches and fatigue to get out of the awkwardness of walking into a room full of people who knew each other, completely alone. Realising those were just super lame and super sad excuses, I mustered up the courage to walk up to the restaurant. I walked in. Didn’t recognise a soul. Walked up to the bar. Figured I could work out my next move once I had the comfort of a wineglass in my hand. Mind racing, I get a tap on my shoulder. It’s Alison. Omg, a familiar face, yes! She says, “hey, we are just through here, I’ve saved you a seat at the table too if

Fabulous food and fabulous views at Flowerdale Estate you’d like it!” I cannot tell you how good that was to hear. With my glass now in hand I knew exactly where to head and what to do. Once again I felt looked after and I knew I could take it from there. The rest of the night I literally did not stop laughing, grinning or chatting. So yeah, I guess this from this newbie: Did I feel like I could fit in? Could I keep up? Would I do it again? The answer is Hell Yes, see you at the next one! DAY TWO Tempted to title this one: some roads are best taken alone! So following a brilliant day one I was ready for more driving on day 2.

Gay and Alf Carrigan

Our large luncheon group at Flowerdale Estate Having given the driver’s briefing some serious thought I decided to tackle what I would consider the most technical part of the drive, alone. The great thing about the club is you get to pick and choose when you want to drive in formation and when you want to break away. There is great flexibly and so on a two day drive you really get to experience it all. So while the rest headed in various directions, I decided to get an early start on EJ road! 60km of twisties. And it turned out to be a great decision. I literally had the road to myself the entire time and near perfect conditions to practice smoothly moving through the corners. At times it felt like I was gliding and without the pressure of other cars around me, I could focus on the apex, vanishing points and keeping my hands in position on the wheel. (I have a nasty habit of moving them around too much and I learned on a recent track day that if you keep them in the right position, you really have a much better idea of where your wheels are pointing at any given moment. Super handy when you are turning a lot!)

landscape with tinges of green grass after the summer and mainly beef being farmed. Flowing corners, not too sharp. From Highlands the roads were a little damp.

Artisan cheese and charcuterie boards for entree

Along a plateau with wide views, 33kms from Euroa. Yarck Road had a few sharp corners. Maroondah Highway had dull weather, sheep farming and corellas! Very pretty entrance into Mansfield. An enjoyable afternoon’s drive arriving at The Sebel Pinnacle Valley Resort, Merrijig at 4.30pm. Standing are Roger Randle, Lois Saber, Neil and Phyl Drew

It was a sensational drive and actually made the later twisty section, the Black Spur, incredibly easy to conquer … can I add, at some pace!? All in all an epic two days! Thanks to all at the club who make these days possible. One of my favourite aspects of the brand is that it really attracts individual who love to drive. Was thinking on the way home as I joined the masses back in town that there are two types of drivers, those who use a car simply to get to a destination, and those who find destinations in order to use their cars!

Welcome to Broadford, one of my favourites, and a track that we haven’t been to since 2019 if memory serves me correctly. Unlike when you’ll probably be reading this, the weather on the day at the track was magnificent, with the sun shining and next to no wind at all. Obviously fellow competitors also like the track, as we had close to a full capacity field. A class 1st place was secured by Guy Lavoipierre in a Cayman S, followed by Manuela Marasco and Warwick Phillips, both in Caymans. B class was secured by the old robust and sometimes rally car 3.2 Carrera of Daniel Reynolds, with a cracking time oh so close to the B class record. 2nd place went to Danny Loypur and 3rd to Andrew Lipman. Good old C class was the usual 3 amigos, with silver fox Mark C gaining a good lead on Grant S (2nd place) and C Goodyear (3rd).

Modified O class was 1st and 2nd to father-son duo Peter and Christian Fitzgerald in their Cayman S, followed by Simon Zettl in the very new 992 Carrera S. Modified 1 was Greg Muller 1st in his Cayman S which I was chasing around the track, and I must say it goes extremely well. 2nd was Daniel Laskowski in a Cayman S and 3rd was Rex Broadbent in the legendary yellow G-series car.

993/964 Register Run to Lancefield Story: Linley & Helen Baxter Photos: Leanne Vella, Linley Baxter & Leon Christodulaki Sunday 22nd May

The day could not have been any better. Great roads, great company, a visit to the brilliantly quirky Killingworth Cafe, a wonderful boutique winery for lunch and a ride in a very rare 993 RS/ CS. That was my lot on the 22 May 2022 993/964 Register Run to Lancefield so capably organised by Roger Vella and Leon Christodulaki. Limited to 30 people this event can’t have been hard to organise can it? Well, think again. Postponing on several occasions during pandemic times was extremely hard, not to mention demotivating, involving, as it did, cancelling the original properties planned for the event. Roger and Leon hung in there and managed to gild the lily by convincing two wonderful alternative properties to open just for us! Wow, wow, wow! The effort was so worth it.

restored buildings set amongst fastidiously maintained gardens. This small cool climate winery is a prolific award winner. We were treated to delicious hot savouries then gourmet pizza supplemented by their beautiful sparklings and pinots. With the company of 30 like-minded, very pleasant attendees and the superb weather, we were seduced into staying until the shadows of the declining sun were very long. Reluctantly but contentedly we commenced our journeys home. Surprising we later realised that, in our case, we had completed over 300 very happy kilometres from home to home. Paul and Deborah Blackie with their 993 RSCS

Starting at McDonalds Ringwood (don’t all runs start there?) we journeyed towards increasingly interesting and decreasingly congested roads until we reached the delightfully interesting and rustic Killingworth cafe in err... Killingworth, which was the top of the Eastern side of a large square route (pardon!) around Melbourne. After coffee and cake we inspected a remarkable collection of antiques, a few of which were our cars. We then left to traverse the Northern and Western sides of the square route. Remarkable was the only way to describe these roads and scenery. Everyone should drive these roads in their Porsche at least once in their life.

Prize Winners Joseph & Debbie

For me, a ride in Paul Blackie’s very rare 993 RS/ CS was a huge bonus. What was Porsche thinking when they made their then most track ready 911 such an inspiring road car. Thank you so much Paul. Perhaps my impression of the roads was distorted by some drug Porsche built into the RS/ CS. Another highlight was still to come. The Parkside Winery Estate at Lancefield was a huge surprise. A sublime Macedon Ranges property with old 56

Torque Tube Register Run to Warragul Story & Photos: Wayne Williamson Sunday 24th April

Eleven months to the Sunday since the previous register event to the Apple Shed in Main Ridge, we had our first Torque Tube Register Run gathering for 2022 which commenced with a congregation of the faithful at the McDonalds Restaurant at Endeavour Hills.

than a Targa, which I took as a qualification of the drive. A special thanks goes to PCV Register Director Paul Sbrissa for guiding me through the required preparation and procedures on the day itself.

Twenty nine members gathered for the usual meet and greet before the run briefing which was given by newly minted Register Captain, Wayne Williamson (me). The sixteen cars included four 968s, two 928s, a 944, Paul’s magnificent Cayman, with the remainder being 911s and Boxsters. The weather forecast for the day could not have been more favourable with stable conditions, light breezes and a comfortable nineteen degrees maximum. Departing the meeting place on stage one, we headed east towards Berwick and had our first taste of ‘sports car’ heaven in Payne Road North Beaconsfield. A brief unexpected delay was incurred with the group encountering a Police ‘Drug Bust’ as we turned south into O’Neils Road. Back through suburbia as we headed towards the South Gippsland Highway which took us around the coast of Westernport Bay as we made our way to Korumburra for our morning coffee break at Kelly’s Bakery where we had our cars lined up for the great photo shoot. Stage two of the run took us to Leongatha and then onto the Yarragon-Leongatha Road, up through Wooreen and Halston where we joined the Grand Ridge Road for some spirited steering wheel control inputs as we navigated our way north. The quality of these roads was surprisingly good considering the remote location. We encountered a minor slow down as we passed some cattle grazing in the “LONG PADDOCK” at Ellinbank. From there we continued north west to pick up the Korumburra-Warragul Road for the wind down into Warragul. Lunch was a two course at the ‘NEWMASON’, a fairly new cafe’/bistro in the heart of Warragul. A long-standing PCV member commented that this was the best run that he’d been party to other ISSUE 2, 2022

Mid 911 Register

Run to Djinta Djinta Winery, Kardella South Story: Deborah Blackie Photos: Deborah Blackie & Keshav Bhattacharya Sunday 12th June 2022

If you don’t like the weather wait a minute. A Melbourne expression and truism for our rumble down to the beautiful Gippsland region with the Mid 911 Register to Djinta Djinta Winery. We rendezvoused in rain at the Hampton Park MacD’s where the not so well oiled staff struggled to deliver coffees under 15 minutes but did kindly impart the fact that Seniors are able to get a free small sized coffee anywhere in Australia. It was particularly interesting to note the absence of many genuine Mid 911 cars - in fact excluding a couple of 930 Turbos, there was only one! Did the prospect of a wet, slippery run scare them away - I wonder? Jim Adamson gave an excellent team orders briefing followed by 20 cars attempting a Le Mans start only to create a Porsche plug at the exit while carbohydrate craving customers attempted to enter. We eventually untangled ourselves and set off in the drizzle for the 1st stage diving through the suburbs of Pakenham, Berwick and Officer. The scenery mainly consisted of huge housing subdivisions with names like Arbour, where every tree had been cut down and Arcadia where the houses were so close to one another they read as one solid building that covered acres. All goes to show developers have a rather dark sense of humour. We arrived at our morning tea pitstop Caldermeade Farm and Cafe celebrating all things bovine with a jersey milking heard and shop selling aisles of chocolate. The farm stars are 2 Scottish Highland cattle Bonnie and Bugle, who peered at us through a mop of shaggy red hair and wondered who had bought all those noisy metal things. This breed is the oldest registered “coo” and used to sleep inside the crofters’ huts where their body heat kept the folk warm. Makes you grateful for a good split system!

PORSCHE PARADE

After a cake and coffee it was time to set off for stage 2 along the ridge lines with double apex corners. Drivers could use the loud pedal turning those purring, well mannered, Zuffenhausen machines into throaty, fast and incredibly fun cars of passion. Everyone behaved and no one went over 100km - around the corners. We had gone through fog but were now driving in glorious sunshine through stunning, bucolic scenery. It was so green it could have been England except for the eucalyptus, shearing sheds, camels …..you get the idea. We lost only one participant on that stage but Jim’s notes clearly said right not left at the T junction onto South Gippsland Hwy, so not sure what happened there. The sun had disappeared and drizzle was coming down as we arrived at Djinta Djinta Winery. The name is aboriginal for Willy Wagtail birds and as most aboriginal bird names are onomatopoeia, it is the territorial sound the bird makes at night. Eleonor, the winery owner, welcomed us and gave us a brief history of the property and given the vineyard is situated in a wet and cold area not ideal to grape growing, she has specialised in cool climate wines producing 5000 bottles in a good year. The last 2 years have been hard and Eleonor is doing a Herculean job of doing renovations to allow more functions as well as run the vineyard. We wish her well for the future. With Wilson’s Promontory only 50 minutes away discussions over lunch compared stories of who had the worst holiday story staying there in inclement weather. Read gale force winds. After a long and enjoyable lunch it was time to meander home with full tummies and ears ringing from laughter and tall stories. Another very enjoyable day spent with club members who love their car as much as you.

I did an informal survey during the day of where people were born or were 1st generation Australians and discovered in our group of 39 minus the 2 who went AWOL, we had people from Poland, United States, United Kingdom, East Timor, Denmark, New Zealand, Greece, Singapore and Cypress . The admiration of a great German marque knows no borders. Congratulations to raffle winners Mandy Adamson, Peter Janusik, Colin Smith and Thomas Som. Thank you Jim and Mandy for my wine gift and the huge amount of work you put in to give 39 people some great memories. Looking forward to my next PCV event Christmas in July.

New Members Jennifer and Peter Howard and Michelle and Neil Lyon In summary, a very civilized run. That said, let’s fill in some detail. Like all Boxster / Cayman runs of late the enterprise was well subscribed to. With a luxurious start time of 10.30 the 21 cars gathered at the road services centre in Rockbank. For those of us there early (in my case only 15 minutes up the road) there was time for coffee and a chat before the briefing. We were joined by the PCV President Mark Horton Andrews and his wife Caroline, who were not actually doing the run but stopped by to catch up and wish us well. Ken Anson who had organised the run (no doubt with help from Harriet) then ran the briefing in the car park. My wife volunteered me to write the article (which is why you are having to read my scratchings) and she assures me it had nothing to do with the bottle of Shiraz offered as a reward! Ken of course is an experienced man at this sort of thing, so briefing was short but precise and after the obligatory reminder that we were representing the Porsche Club of Victoria we retired to our cars, set the odometer to zero, and headed for the highway. Our first turn was only 0.7 kilometres up the road and we all managed that without incident. Of course, the notes were up to Ken’s usual standard, which is to say excellent, but in today’s case were even better. Scattered amongst the precise instructions were cautions (stuff like speed limits that might be overlooked, ways to get back on track if you make a mistake, descriptions of road signs etc. to help identify a particular corner, and even mini tour notes such as at one turn “you can go straight ahead here, but you probably will end up in some farmers sheep shed”). I know I found them to be really comprehensive and very helpful notes! I’ll mention the weather here because it too made the day a really pleasurable experience. Bright sunshine was the order of the day with a brisk outside temperature but still pleasant enough

that several cars had their rooves (I’m an English teacher so can’t bring myself to say roofs) down. Sylvia and I did discuss it, but it was so warm and comfortable with it up… we must be getting old! Mind you, as we approached Woodend the sunshine disappeared and 10 minutes later as we climbed Mt Macedon we drove into the cloud bank and the temperature dropped to less than 8 degrees. However, by the time that we drove down the other side of the mountain the sunshine returned and we were once again driving in perfect conditions. The roads over the mountain were really Porsche friendly driving, tight curves, hair pin bends and a constant steep climb. Indeed, the entire run was on great roads with interesting corners and curves and in some cases, such as over the “Razor Back” (the Gisborne to Bacchus Marsh road) fantastic views. Yes, this section is definitely my “backyard” but on a sunny day in a Porsche in the company of other Porsche drivers it took on a newly appreciated buzz. That I guess is the whole point of these runs. Great roads, great cars and fantastic company and today it certainly was. At the Golf Club we all ordered our own meals from the menu. The food was, from what I could see, excellent and was served in a timely manner to an appreciative (if loud) two tables. After the food was all served Ken introduced new members on their first run, Peter and Jennifer Howard in their silver 987 Boxster, and also Neil and Michelle Lyons in their black 987 Boxster. Then it was time to run the obligatory raffle and a bottle of wine was each won by David Turner, Marian Johnson, Nick Yates and Frank Deak. And so the day ended and thanks must go to Ken and Harriet of course for organising it but also every participant who made it a safe enjoyable run in good company.

Mid 911 Register Run to Macedon

Story: Brett Varga Photos: Paul Sbrissa & Andrew Clarke Sunday 16th April 2022

This was my first Mid 911 Run in many years and it was an absolute delight to be back out for a Sunday drive with a bunch of Air cooled 911’s and a few other Stuttgart classics. A few of us met on Beach Rd and cruised to the McDonlads Gisborne carpark to meet the rest of the cars and drivers. I cant recall the last time I saw so many G series 911’s together. After some chit chat and the briefing, we were off on leg one to Mount Macedon. We had google maps links emailed to us and waypoints made navigation a breeze. Much easier than trying to follow a paper print out. The sky was clear and the air was fresh as we headed to the summit of Mount Macedon. The temperature was noticeably lower at the Tea Rooms at the top of Mount Macedon. Caffeine levels were restored and we were soon heading down the mountain and onto a big loop through Trentham, Kyneton and Tylden. Most cars followed the designated route, taking the left towards Trentham and enjoying mostly right turns before heading off the loop towards lunch. A few drivers knew the area and did the loop in reverse, taking a right and then lots of lefts. It was great seeing a few cars going in the opposite direction. The roads were pretty empty. Maybe being Easter Saturday people were hiding eggs for the Sunday Easter Egg Hunts. We made steady progress to lunch to the Wine Collective where everyone enjoyed a nice lunch and some great views. Hopefully the new members had as much fun as I did. New/first time register members were Tracey, Dan and Ian and Matthew and Alexander, 62

as well as Andrew who sat as my navigator for the day while his IROC 911 awaits completion. Break time, The quiet Lancefield town about 70kms out of Melbourne welcomed the drivers and cars with plenty of options for facilities, food, coffee and easy main street parking for all participants. After drivers found their finest choices we were soon congregating on the café bakery stretch providing all participants to talk Porsche while looking at the array of our main street idle masterpieces providing the sleepy town with a great stretch of colours and engineering artistry during our driving recess. Leg 2, took us further north looping around the old Cobb and Co regional roads to Pyalong and Tooborac back to Lancefield town centre for a drive through on our way across to the northern side of Mt Macedon. This provided any early leavers easy access to the Calder Freeway to head home whilst most remained on the back road to bring us along the winding roads and over the top of Mt Macedon towards Gisborne. Lunch, was at Gisborne Golf club with plenty of bitumen parking available to line up the team of Porsches again. Lunch was a reserved set of tables providing a view of the golf course. To summarise, great weather, 30+ car solid attendance on a long weekend, excellent parking available at every stop, fast paced and fun winding roads with little traffic and facilities and food options were plentiful! An excellent Porsche drive region around the Northern and North Eastern roads all of which is not far outside of Melbourne!
