President’s Corner I’m writing this Presidents Corner having just returned from the Mount Dora Tour. To remind you, the Club sponsored a drive to Mount Dora in central Florida’s lake country. The event ran from Friday the 16th of April to the 18th, with the Lakeside Inn located in Mt. Dora as our base of operations. The event was a huge success with 43 rooms having been booked at the hotel which resulted in Gold Coast members occupying every great restaurant in town. But tours are not only about seeing new sights and eating good food, there about the driving. And driving we did in spades. The Lake Country has some of the most beautiful and flowing roads found anywhere in Florida. Roads that swooped and dived along he two lane roads flanked with old growth Oak
Trees on both sides. This area can truly be called Porsche Country. Meanwhile the town of Mt. Dora offered some great restaurants and I think all that went will gladly admit that the food was the second biggest highlight of the trip beaten only by the driving. And finally mixing with your Porsche friends, people of a like mind and a shared interest. We intend to have more tours of this type of tour in the near future so keep your eye on the Kassette or Clubregistration.net for early announcements of these events. Last month I talked about creating Special Interest Groups. A Clubette within the Gold Coast Region, where the members share a special interest. I listed several
Peter Olliviere, President
potential groups, 911’s, 911 GT’s, Transaxle cars, 356 and several others. Well my email blew up with the supporters of the Transaxle Cars. Now this is an area and car that I’m very familiar with. To me the response and interest was like old home’s week, so much so that I decided to stroll back down memory lane and take you with me. Presented down below is an article I wrote about seven years ago, I hope you enjoy it. Article on page 26. Anyone interested in being part of the Transaxle group please contact me at polliviere@gmail.com.

Editor’s Notes Have you ever been to a multi regional zone event or a national Porsche Parade? The reason for the question is that after the last Parade in Boca Raton the COVID-19 crisis has caused all of the PCA regions to cut back on large event such as our local Zonefest or the national Parade. In fact the Parade that followed the Boca location was canceled. Because of this problem, many newer PCA members may have never experienced a Parade type event. When my wife and I joined PCA in 2001 we were very lucky to be involved with a very active region, Gold Coast. While observing an autocross event at Pompano Park, a very friendly social chair, Diana Hansen explained some of the club activities. We found out that in two weeks we could attend a Zonefest in Lehigh Acres. We did not know what to expect but it sounded like fun. When we arrived at the motel we checked in and received several instructional items about the weekend event. We were Disney Convention attend-

ees so the goodie bag was nothing new but the people we started meeting turned out to be very friendly and informative about what to expect that weekend. After dinner I went out to the parking lot to see what everyone was doing. I watched Link Eveleth, from Gold Coast, repair a tire for a competitor from Suncoast region that he would be racing the next day. I thought to myself, that was very impressive. Later as I got to know Link better, I found that he was very experienced in racing and would teach you everything he knew to help you improve until you got within 1 second of his times then you were on your own. While continuing to watch the car preparation, I was asked by a member from Suncoast if I had ever waxed my car. I told him that I had just bought the car and it had not been waxed. He proceed to do a complete wax job on my car. I was blown away. After thanking the gentleman for improving the appearance of my Guards Red Boxster S I went back to the room
and told my wife Sherry that I think we found a great car club. We did our first autocross, my first competitive car event since the Soap Box Derby in 1959 on the Las Olas bridge in Fort Lauderdale. The weekend turned out to be a wonderful event and a great start to our PCA membership. A year later we attended our next Zonefest at Saddle Brook near Tampa. By that time we were both involved with the club and worked on committees with Suncoast to practice for the national Parade that would take place the following year. It was a great experience and the 2003 Parade was very successful. Experiencing the teamwork of these events and future multi regional events the term “It’s all about the People” could not be more correct. Don’t sit on the sideline and miss out on what your club has to offer. Volunteer and share your talent to help the region grow.

SEBRING ROCKS, AGAIN The 69th Running of the 12 Hours of Sebring To suggest that the 12 Hour race at Sebring is legendary would be an understatement. Legendary is only one accolade that applies to this historic location and America’s oldest endurance race. Also, appropriate would adjectives such as spectacular, phenomenal, competitive, fun, exceptional and so on. The 69th running of the 12 Hours of Sebring was held on Saturday March 20th. The initial 12-hour race was held in 1952 at a converted US Army Air Forces bomber training facility, Hendricks Field. Most of the track layout was originally constructed on bomber runways or ramps, all made of concrete. While a significant part of the original track layout is still used, there are now 3 miles of asphalt, and .74 miles of concrete. The road course is rough, the bumps at Sebring are tough, and they extract a heavy toll of both car and driver during the 12-hour event. Mario Andretti, 3-time 12 Hours winner, suggested that one of the hardest parts about the track was “finding the track to begin with”. Sebring in a word is: challenging. The weekend (Wednesday to Saturday night) is not simply a one 12-hour challenge of speed and attrition. There are practices, qualification times, and additional races preceding the big one. Of particular note for us Porsche fans was the introduction of the new Porsche 911 GT3 Cup racecar. Porsche built this new “spec racer” for professional competition. The Sebring weekend featured two 45-minute Porsche Cup races. The 911 GT3 Cup is the first racecar built on the 992 generation iconic 911. There were 22 new GT3’s available to race (the North American Porsche folks hoped to get 15 from Germany for the event). A PCA Club Racer suggested that the new GT3 Cup car entry cost was roughly $350,000 – plus cost of spare parts!

Cayman leading Alan Jay 120 Along with the new GT3’s there were another 13 Porsche 991.2’s to total 35 vehicles on the track for these two Cup races, held Thursday afternoon and Friday morning. Lap timing for the events indicated that the new cars were about 6 seconds per lap faster than the 991.2’s they raced with, an incredible improvement. If you wish to type in the link, here’s the Porsche news release regarding the event: https://newsroom.porsche.com/ en_US/2021/motorsport/porsche-carreracup-north-america-debut-sebring-911-gt3cup-23915.html Besides the Porsche Cup, there were also two Mazda MX5 Spec races (Thursday and Friday) as well as a 2-hour Grand Sport and Touring Car race on Friday. With practice sessions on Wednesday and Thursday morning, qualifying on Thursday and Friday, racing on Thursday, Friday and Saturday there was plenty to see, HEAR, and appreciate in respect to high-end quality performance road racing. Being fairly new to Porsche ownership, a rookie at Sebring, there is plenty to see. From the Porsche racecar perspective, it was a superb weekend. The coming
Kassette | May 2021
out party for the 992 GT3 Cup car was capped by race wins in both the GTLM (GT Le Mans) and GTD (GT Daytona) classes. While there were only 5 competitors in the GTLM group, the Porsche RSR took the 1st place podium position. After running in the 3-4 position most of the day, late contact between the leading Corvette and the second place BMW in turn 7 (the hotel or “hairpin” turn). Following the T7 collision, the #79 Porsche, driven by MacNeil-Jaminet-Spengler held the lead for the last 7-10 minutes while the Corvette had to retire and the BMW limped to a 2ndplace finish. It was a bit sad for the Corvette, as the No. 3 car lead virtually all day, only to be punted on a bonehead move at the tightest turn on the track. Not many people were happy with the BMW driver, Connor De. Phillippi. In the GTD class it was a 1-2 finish for Porsche. The #9 Porsche Pfaff Motorsports team of Robichon, Vanhoor, and Kern in their 911 GT3 R took the top spot. The #16 911 GT3 R of Wright Motorsports driven by Hardwick, Long and Heylen were close behind in second. In all, there were 4 GT3 R’s racing.
New GT3 on track
Quite possibly the most impressive team of Legge, Nielsen, and Gigueirdo (all very talented women racers) brought the #88 Porsche Team Hardpoint car home to a 5th place finish in the 13 car GTD category. In the DPi group it was Cadillac – Mazda – Cadillac, 1-2-3. The #5 DPi Cadillac driven by Sebastian Bourdais, Tristan Vautier, and Loic Duval took the checkered. The #55 Mazda of Bomarito, Jarvis, and Tincknell were only a second back after 12 hours of racing. The 3rd place position was the Cadillac of Jimmie Johnson, Simon Paginaud, and Kamui Kobyashi. They were only 2 seconds off the lead at the end. The race was like that for the entire 12, more a sprint than an endurance event. LMP1 & LMP2 sections had similar results with close racing, finishes, and incredible competition. We’ll leave the details to the racing and sporting magazines. Sebring International Raceway is a rough place to race. In its current configuration the length is 3.74 miles. The big Daytona Prototype International developmental cars (DPi) vehicles will run at 200+ mph, with GTLM cars at roughly185 and the GTD cars at 175. There is a ton of motion on the track at all time and a driver truly needs the highest levels of concentration to navigate the 17-turn track and myriad of different cars and race speeds to do well. As for spectators, there were roughly 100,000 or so, for the weekend (authors guess, no official gate number announced). Many travel to Sebring early in race week and mark their territory by Wednesday for the weekend, when the track opens for attendees. Along the track there are huge numbers of motorhomes and in the interior are additional motor coaches, camping trailers and straight up tent campers. Everyone is into racing at some level of participation. We spoke to fans that had been there from the early 60’s to first timers. Given the layout of the track there are
DPi cars in turn 5 numerous places to view the racing. Some spots have larger grandstands; other areas are mounded for improved viewing. The best part is no matter the corner or straight, the track and cars are visible. The old timers suggested that the spectator›s atmosphere is not quite as “wild” as in the ‘60’s to ‘80’s. Apparently, certain areas of the infield were quite raucous, perhaps lurid, and certainly out of control. The 69th event was substantially subdued from those days – possibly covid related – but certainly family friendly. Since the weekend of March 17-20th, there have been several YouTube videos of the Porsche Cup, the Mazda MX5 racing, and certainly the actual 12-hour event. With the constant action on the track, it would be worth your time to view a few of these. Of special note was the finish of the Mazda MX5 Race on Friday. Imagine 35-40+ angry bees chas-
ing each other for the 45-minute duration. Also imagine running the track with the pedal to the floor for all but 2 or 3 turns (their motto, NEVER LIFT), and then after the white flag drops, the 3 lead cars finish door handle to door handle with less than 0.100 seconds between the podium spots. And damn near every race was that close for the weekend. Sebring International Raceway (SIR) is a short 2-hour drive from north Broward County. It’s simple to go for the day. Then with some advance planning for hotel space, it’s a great getaway weekend. The 12-hour event is one of the Big 3 (others being 24 Hour of Daytona, and the 24 hours Le Mans) of endurance racing. If you can run and win here, you can run and win anywhere. There is a reason they have never changed or improved the track, it’s punishing for certain, and every driver knows every bump!

PCA AT SEBRING A PERSPECTIVE STORY BY DAN SMITHYMAN, 48 HOURS AT SEBRING CO-CHAIR PHOTOS BY JUHA LIEVONEN
So…
I am rolling up Highway US 27 through south central Florida on my way to Sebring. Just ticking off the miles, letting my thoughts wander. US 27 (from my place in southeast Florida to Sebring) is not a bad ride at all, mostly four lanes and smooth pavement. It hasn’t always been this way. I remember back in the early days of my travels to Sebring, it was terrifying: Narrow two-lane roads, dark as hell at night and lots of head on collisions. I personally have seen several really nasty ones and avoided one myself by driving off the shoulder just in the nick of time… Right now though, I have the cruise control set at 74 and am listening to some tunes, race car in tow. Nice. As my mind wanders it occurs to me that it takes me 2hrs 30 mins to get to Sebring from my house. At Sebring I’m always trying to get my lap time below 2:30 in my ‘76 3.0L 911 hot rod… Coincidence?

The Middle of Nowhere Sebring is really in the middle of nowhere, nothing around me but cow fields and sugar cane as far as the eye can see. Welcome to Central Florida! I live in the southeast part of Florida, kind of western Ft. Lauderdale. If I lived in Miami it would take an hour longer, and if I lived in the Keys (still Florida technically) Google says it would take 5 hours and 38 minutes! My daughter, Christal, is a performance driver and is meeting me at the track. She lives in Tampa and it takes her the better part of two hours to get there coming from the opposite direction. If she lived further up the west coast, in Pensacola, it would take 7 hours and 37 minutes going south east to get there! Yup… Sebring is in the middle of nowhere.
Kassette | May 2021
Last month we had an article written by Mike Tarter. It focused on the Sebring airport and racetrack beginnings. It is a fascinating story of the history of the area. Mike outlined how it became a World War II base and then a world class race track. Just how did this small town in the middle of nowhere became the Mecca of racing in the USA some 60 years ago? I still have trouble wrapping my head around it. How the hell did folks get here way back then? No less interesting to me is how PCA got involved in racing and just how did the 48 Hours at Sebring PCA Club Race become one of the biggest Club Racing events in the U.S. and the world? The story of PCA Club Racing is the stuff of legends and has been told many times. My hope here is to put a little perspective to it from the Gold Coast (GCR) and Suncoast Regions point of view.
As you may know, PCA Club Racing was born in 1992. Our dear friend Alan Friedman and a small band of car guys were Porsche enthusiasts who enjoyed racing. Their unfortunate experience was that as you progressed in driving skill you had to leave the PCA world if you wanted to go racing. There were plenty of good drivers, getting lots of track time driving DE. By the early ‘90s many of the larger PCA Regions (Gold Coast and Suncoast included) had very robust DE programs. GCR DE legend, Ken Fengler, recalls the early days at Moroso Motorsport Park, where the Gold Coast Region DE program got its start. Fengler says, “Porsche owners want to drive their cars; always have, always will”. At that time, Gold Coast had a serious autocross program, but pretty much nothing on track. In the early ‘80s Ken convinced the powers that be in GCR that Driver Education on a track would work. Let’s just say that, in the beginning, not everyone agreed. Fengler did his due diligence, got all the necessary information together and kept at it. Despite some intense protestation, in May of 1984 he got the first GCR DE approved at Moroso. Moroso’s road course, at the time, was underutilized, the cost of the track was something like $200 for the weekend! Given that nearly 100 drivers signed up, the numbers worked out great and the Gold Coast Driver Ed Program was born. With the success of the DE programs came lots of drivers with skills and the desire to do more. Fast forward 10 years or so and a lot of those same players had moved on. Many were selling off their Porsches to go racing elsewhere. Alan Friedman was watching this happen and wanted to create an opportunity to keep these drivers involved in PCA. As a veteran of several racing programs, Alan thought the Vintage Racing rules would work for PCA. Fun, fast and safe… Just like my ’76 hot rod. It took a bit of convincing (ok, years) to
get it approved, but at the 1991 Parade the National Executive Council agreed to give Club Racing a test drive. There were four PCA Club Racing events in 1994. The success of those early races in Denver, Summit Point, Pocono and Lime Rock paved the way for PCA Club Racing. Fortunately, the programs were successful and more folks became believers. Eventually it was decided that PCA National would oversee the Club Racing Program and let the regions decide if they wanted to produce a race. This would provide an important level of consistency at every event. All that regions needed to do was agree to put up the money and figure out how to run a Club Race. What could go wrong? Bill Riley, the Zone 12 Rep at the time, recalls that the region budgets back then were counted in hundreds, not thousands of dollars. Scary stuff here. Bill says, “I wasn’t a fan, simply because the potential for financial disaster was so high. Shortly thereafter I had become a big fan!” Of course, not much went wrong with the first few Club Racing events under Alan’s stewardship, and more folks started to come around. That the first races were, for the most part, financial successes (instead of disasters as feared) helped. I can tell you that heading into that first race at Sebring, here in Gold Coast and Suncoast, there were clearly people of two mindsets: Those who pushed for Club Racing and those who later were big enough to admit that they were wrong! Don’t get me wrong, everyone had the best interests of the regions at heart, but these were trying times. The first Sebring Club Race in 1994 was a huge success in every way. That’s not to say it was without drama. As Friedman recalls “The weather up north was terrible (shocking). Most of the national organizers got snowed in and never made it (all but
Alan). The regional guys stepped up and things went smoothly”. Through those turbulent early days passionate, creative innovators forged their way through the unknown to bring Club Racing to the Porsche Club of America on shoestring budgets. We should say thanks to those early people more often. We owe them a lot. PCA Club Racing now has over 30 races each year and, for many of the host regions, it is the premier event of the year. It certainly is for the Gold Coast and Suncoast Regions. Every year we have hundreds of volunteers working tirelessly to put on the Sebring Club Race. Most have been putting in their time and expertise for years. Some have been there every year since the beginning. Coming back year after year, making things a bit better every year and doing it with good folks that share the passion is what keeps this guy coming back; that’s for sure. If you want to experience a great PCA Club Race, come to Sebring, always the first club race on the calendar each year. Hope to see you there.

Tech Corner :
Fast, to the Future !
Article by Pedro P. Bonilla, Tech Editor
As we all know, Porsche pulled its Factory Team from the IMSA Weathertech Series at the end of 2020. We can thank the Covid-19 Pandemic for that. At least that was the official reason given, but we all know that they have been preparing to enter the Le Mans Daytona hybrid (LMDh) Prototype class in 2023. At the end of the 2017 season, Porsche had also pulled out of the LMP1 class of the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) and announced that they would start competing in the FIA Formula E (all-electric open wheel) starting in 2019.

• 1 Formula One race: 1962 (Dan Gurney’s victory in the French Grand Prix driving a Porsche 804). That was Porsche’s first and last F1 race that they won. Hopefully that’ll soon change. Note: Porsche did participate and win in F1 as an engine supplier (TAG-Porsche) to McLaren: 1984, 1985, 1986, 1987 So, for me, being a Formula1 and a Porsche super fan, the recent rumors make me very hopeful for the future.
>>>> Porsche is making preparations to enter Formula1 in 2025 <<<< We know that Porsche developed (in secret) a Formula 1 engine that targeted the 2021 regulations, but the project was shelved together with the World Endurance Championship program in 2018. We also know (as I explained in a previous article) that Porsche is in negotiations with Formula 1 to enter the top racing series as a manufacturer in 2025 if F1 agrees to use Porsche’s eFuel which promotes sustainability and helps in cost reductions. From their part, F1 has announced a first-ever budget cap of $145 million per team starting with the 2021 season with spending limits decreased to $135 million from 2023 onwards (this is exactly what Porsche was looking for). Although meetings are done behind closed doors, news have leaked out that Porsche which is part of FIA’s engine working group, is very involved in the development of the 2025 regulations and that they show up to meetings full of ideas. They also want to double the electrification of the racecars by 2025. Here’s the timeline: • February 2021, Porsche is invited to attend its first FIA meeting in years • March 2021, VW Supervisory Board agrees to participate in follow-up meeting which also included AMG Petronas, Alpine Renault and Ferrari, among others. • April 2021 Porsche and Audi are expected to join as equal partners to discuss conditions for their participation in F1. • May 2021 both Porsche and Audi will submit business plans to their respective Boards of Directors and the top brass at Wolfsburg. • Late Spring or early Summer 2021 a Memorandum can be expected.
Oliver Blume, Porsche’s CEO recently said:
“F1 is the top tier of motorsports and we follow it closely. But to turn it into a viable business case which dovetails with our core brand values, the regulations need to change so that Porsche can broadly identify with the new environment-friendly priorities.”

Sounds to me like they’re all-in! Only questions are: • Will Porsche constrict itself to being just an engine supplier to other teams such as Red Bull (who’s contract with Honda goes only through the end of 2024) McLaren and/or Williams?
• Will Porsche decide to develop an all-inclusive package solution? (Porsche car, Porsche engine and Porsche Team) • Will they use their own factory drivers if they develop the whole package, or
• Will they hire from the F1 alumni? For the Porsche racing fan, the future is looking mighty good! Stay tuned for more news in the near future. For more information about Porsche and F1 and more, please visit my website: Pedro@PedroGarage.com. Happy Porsche’ing, Pedro

Photo of the Month
Purple Mountain Majesties, or Cassis Mountain Majesties? by Christy Spangler, photo of the month chair This month’s photo was submitted by Juan Carlos Muniz of Santiago Herrera’s Cassis Red 1987 Carrera. Juan Carlos traveled with a group of vintage 911s on a trip to northern Georgia and took this photo near sunset after a windy mountain drive on the Suches Gap. He noticed how the shape and color of the Cassis Red Carrera seemed to match the mountain behind it. “As much as I wish I could photoshop the roof rack off, it does remind me of how robust these vintage cars can be.” said Juan Carlos. “10 vintage 911s made this 2000 mile round trip from Miami with nary a single mechanical issue.” I’m glad that Juan Carlos did not edit the roof rack from this image- it adds to story of Santiago’s vintage Carrera. Out of curiosity, I looked up the Cassis Red color on rennbow.org which describes it as it is “…a purplish/pinkish light metallic bronze that varies considerably depending on the lighting.” I can see how the sunset lighting tones would give it a hue that matches with the mountain behind it. Like Juan Carlos said, “Purple Mountain Majesties, or Cassis Mountain Majesties?” As for the shape of the Carrera? I’ve heard that great design is inspired by nature. Rennbow.org is a website with a chart of colors available on Porsches over the years and subjectively rates the commonality and rarity of the color. You can look up the color of your Porsche - maybe it has a 5 paint can unicorn rating. If you are wondering, Cassis Red Metallic has a 4 paint can rating. Juan Carlos used a a Sony a6000 mirrorless camera with a 35 mm f/1.4 manual focus lens to capture this image. I really appreciate all the great submissions - please keep them coming! How to submit a photo for consideration: Submission deadline is the 20th of each month. Please include the following information: name phone number information about your car the title for the photo a short write up about the photo what kind of camera or smart phone you used to capture the image Email the above information with your high resolution image attached to gcr.potm@gmail.com

Confessions of a 4-Cylinder Junkie
by Peter Olliviere, President When you think about Porsches the first thing that comes to mind is the immortal 911. For fifty years this one vehicle has defined what a sports car should be. The 911 has single handedly seduced hundreds of thousands of normally sane people to drink the Kool-Aid, and become a Porsche believer. Hell if you think about It, who can resist the howl of that flat six at full throttle, or the tactile way the car talks to you as you drive. Yes the naysayers will talk about the engine being in the wrong place, and that tactile steering is really just twitchy. In reality that’s all part of the mystique and adds to the legend that is the 911. I want to go on record here as saying that I am one of those that love the 911 in all its many forms, but it’s not where I spend my money to get my Porsche “fix”. Let me introduce myself; my name is Peter Olliviere and I’m addicted to four cylinder water cooled Porsches; 968’s in particular. Having an addiction that goes counter to the accepted drug is a heavy burden. When I’m among my Porsche brethren, I have to walk with my head bent down and I have a scarlet 4 of shame stamped on my back. But with all that to endure I continue to immerse myself in my drug of choice. The water cooled four cylinder Porsches spanned the model ranges from the early 924 that was more Audi than Porsche, through the 944, 944 Turbo, 944 S2 and the 968. Before I discuss the merits of these cars as compared to a 911, I will point out that these cars saved Porsche! Without the 330,000 models of these cars that were sold, you would not have a 911 today. So even through the purist might not have considered these cars true Porsches, they do owe them a debt of gratitude. Since the 911 is the matriarch of the Porsche brand, Porsche has always decreed that the 911 would be the fastest car in the line. That meant that power output on other cars in the line was kept under what was offered in the 911. So as far as outright speed was concerned, the 911 will always be faster in a straight line than a 944, 944 Turbo or 968. I underline straight line because when the road started to bend these lesser Porsche models were better handlers. If Porsche had ever allowed the power to be there we would be looking at these cars in a different light. Before you reach for the tar and feathers let me point out that the same situation exists today with the Boxer and Cayman. (History always seems to repeat itself.) The styling of the 911 is iconic. You can see the DNA from the first one to the latest edition, but like anything that has been around forever it becomes familiar. Instead of catching the eye, the eye skims over it. It’s still a hell of a good looking car, but it’s difficult to have it stand out in a crowd. My drug of choice the 968 is unique, Porsche built only 12,000 worldwide in four years. Just over 4,000 were imported to North America evenly split between Coupes and Cabriolets. That makes the 968 one

Kassette | May 2021
rare Porsche with possibly the lowest production for a Porsche model line. Some may say that the low production numbers were because it wasn’t a true Porsche, but in reality the entire sports car market “tanked” back then, and the 968 was not helped by a price point that was far higher than its competitors. That said, these cars today are few and far between. With only 2,200 968 Cabs ever coming to North America, and 22 years of attrition, a good example is getting harder to find each day. The styling of the water cooled 4’s was always considered good. Not over the top but classic and refined as Porsches usually were. A case could be made that the 924 was a little too soft looking, and did not look as purposeful as the later models. The later models added muscle to the original 924 styling and that gave the car the right performance look. The nose of the 944, 944 S2 and Turbo could not be mistaken for anything but a Porsche, even if it did cover a front mounted engine. But now that we look back over time, the front styling has held up well while the rear has started to look dated. When we look at the 968 it has defied the years. The saying “Not looking your age” certainly applies to the 968. The front is contemporary Porsche with the rear blending smoothly in. The only give away that this is not a contemporary car, is the canyon wide gaps between body panels. But hey even the Mona Lisa has flaws. My drug of choice has always been the 968 Cabriolet. This car along with the 944 S2 Cab is some of Porsche’s best styling work at the time. The 968 Cab looks like it was designed just yesterday not over 23 years ago, and will probably still look good 20 years from now. The true test of a classic design is the test of time, and the 968 Cab passes that test with flying colors. No drug is perfect, and the 968 is no different. I enjoy my Cab with one exception, the top. The thing that makes the car what it is, the design element that helps make the car timeless, is also the thing that makes me crazy. I once counted the steps required to lower the electric top, including getting in and out of the car several times, opening the trunk to lower the back seats, opening the two manual latches, operating the electric top, attaching the top cover, putting the rear seats back up and closing the trunk. The total number of steps is 11. You’d better be sure about the weather when you put that top down, because this is not a quick process and getting it back up takes just as long. You guys with one button operation of your top don’t know how good you’ve got it. Today the water cooled 4’s are making a comeback. The Porsche purest have begun to notice that because of their strengths, great handling, reasonable pricing, and reasonable maintenance costs, these cars make great track day cars or everyday drivers. They are also a great entry point for the Porsche novice or young person without a trust fund. So suddenly the 4’s are no longer the orphans of the Porsche family. It seems that more and more folks are getting the habit, but to me what others think doesn’t matter. Weather prepping for a concourse, or running an autocross, or doing a social event with other Porsche owner’s, my drug of choice still makes me high.
Porsches and Pancakes update A little history and interesting story by Steve Kidd, GCR Historian As many of you know, Gold Coast Region's Porsches and Pancakes are one of the most popular events we offer. The general theme is that on the 1st Saturday of the month, PCA members get together for an informal breakfast at local restaurants, enjoy good food, meet new friends, tell our favorite Porsche stories, and see some awesome cars. What started out as two P & P locations in early 2013 has mushroomed to 9 + locations and continues to grow. Locations come and go and new ones often get started by an unmet need in a particular area. Such is what happened for one of our newest locations in West Delray Beach. As I understand it, at the December Tradewinds park event, my wife Dottie had some productive chats with new member Ellen Lebrevelec about doing something in West Delray. The idea of a Porsches and Pancakes in that area was sparked. Ellen and her husband Peter suggested several locations, and asked Dottie and I to check them out. Of the locations we visited, our favorite was Poppies Deli and as it turned out that was Ellen's favorite also....offering outdoor dining, good food (yes we did try it out and I highly recommend their breakfast special), lots of parking close to the cars., and great service. As some people may not read all their e-mails, Dottie handed me a list and asked me to call and personally invite some of the newer Delray members to the 1st Porsches and Pancakes at Poppies in Delray. One of the names on my list list looked familiar, and my call confirmed my suspicions....an old college buddy from 50+ years ago! As it turned out, my buddy....I'll call him Bill K, first met in 1970 at the University of Tampa, and crossed paths all thru school until 1974 when we graduated and went on our separate career paths. And yes, Bill K. is quite the Porsche enthusiast, has owned many Porsches, and driven some of the hottest Porsches at the Porsche Motorsport school at Barber Racetrack. After a lot of catching up, I convinced Bill that he needed to get more involved in PCA and he should join us at the new Porsches and Pancakes in West Delray Beach. While I was not sure if he would show up or I would recognize him, I did greet everyone as they pulled into the parking lot at Poppies. When a brand new Turbo S pulled in, it was Bill who recognized me first. Lots more catching up, introductions to other members, and socializing. I'm sure it won't be another 47 years till we meet again. Many thanks to Ellen and Peter for volunteering to host all future Poppies Porsches and Pancakes, to my wife Dottie for bringing this all together, and to my long last friend Bill who vividly remembered my 1972 Porsche 914 and college craziness.

Autocross Update
Steve Kidd, Autocross Chair
It’s been quite a while since GCR offered autocross training for newcomers, however with more activities opening up, it’s now time to go back to school...AutoX school! This Auto X update with be almost entirely devoted to the upcoming autoX school on May 22. Listed below is brief “course” description and schedule of events. We do have some loaner helmets, however students are encouraged to purchase their own should they want to get more involved with AutoX or track events (Snell 2010 or newer). In addition, everyone is reminded that their car should be running well, have good tires/brakes and no fluid leaks. We’ll have plenty of opportunity for questions and discussion of competition Autocross following the school. We plan to make this event fun, educational, and a good opportunity to really enjoy your Porsche . Here’s a preview of what we plan to present: •
Chalk Talk…Basics and Safety / what to anticipate at an autocross event – We’ll go over performance driving theory, course designs, terminology, AutoX Do’s and Don’ts, and car preparation. This segment will also lead students thru a typical working assignment that is required with any Autocross. The basics of corner work include proper use of flags, radios, fire extinguisher, off course and downed cone call-ins, cone penalties, and staying safe... At the conclusion of this segment all students will walk the course with instructors. Some of the chalk talk highlights include:
Covid-19 precautions, covid waivers, masks required, social distancing and enhanced sanitation How to register How to prepare your car (tire pressure, helmet etc.)….and yourself (clothing, water/food, rain gear etc.) What to expect at your first AutoX….registration, cleaning out your car, tech inspection What you are expected to do when working the course……& good sportsmanship Autocross Men’s and Ladies Classes …Stock/novice, production, improved, modified…..PCR’s…. Staying on course and not hitting cones. Going thru the finish and getting your time. Comparing your results with others in your class…. • •
•
Walking the course -The course walk can be the key to not going off course and planning your run! We’ll cover looking 1-3 gates ahead, braking points, turn in points, apex, track out, the drive line and safety station locations. We’ll also cover strategy for navigating different elements such as a slalom or key west box. Working the Course - We’ll cover the different work assignments, however the major focus will be on manning a station on the course while other groups are running. This is really important that participants take this seriously and make sure the correct # of cones are called in and cones get set back in their original place when they are hit. Remember each cone hit and knocked completely out of the box carries a 2 second penalty....which is a lifetime in autocross competition! Even more important is calling in an off course since a car that does not follow the course correctly does not receive a credited time for that run. Course working shifts can be anywhere between 30-90 minutes, so be prepared for sun or rain. Running the Course - This segment will start with a low speed parade lap then more advanced runs thru the course without timing equipment. Each student will hopefully have different instructors on each run, giving them an opportunity to see different styles and strategies. All runs should be done at a risk-free “learning” speed. All students should focus on safety, having fun, and learning. Hopefully you will get hooked and be back for more autocrossing.
Tentative AX schedule for the remainder of 2021 AX school for 1st time autocrossers May 22 .Open now on clubregistration.net Event #4 5/22/2021 @Sebring: Very similar to event #1. Open now on clubregistration.net Summer break Event #5 9/11/2021 @ Sebring or ??? Event #6 10/09/2021 @ Sebring or ??? Event #7 Tentative Mid November. Location TBA possibly FAU or ??? Most of the above dates & sites are subject to change due to weather, availability and factors beyond our control. News, reminders and 2021 updates: • Everyone is now required to pre-register for any AutoX on Clubregistration.net… Please consult the GCR website and Kas sette for all Autocross photos & results. • Porsche classes are loosely based on the PCR’s for medium size regions, with minor regional adjustments. The major dif ference will be the addition of SN (stock car/novice driver) for men and ladies. These classes are strictly for newcomers only. Please see Steve for any car class questions or if you wish to run as a novice. We reserve the right to make additional class/rule changes as needed. • Our 2021 series is planned to be 5-7 events, depending on site eligibility. To be eligible for an end of the year award, competi tors must run in over half the events in the same class. Each competitor’s top finishes will be calculated and an end of the year class champion and possibly runner-up (depending on class size) will be chosen. In case of a tie, additional events will be added until the tie is broken. Year-end class champion awards may be presented. • No passengers except for an approved AX instructor driving or in the car instructing. • Again,please remember to be Covid-19 conscious ie, waivers, social distancing, masks and sanitizing, etc. Questions? call Steve or Dottie Kidd 954-946-3196
