............................ tear out and mail now .......................................
It’s getting close to the end of the year, in one way it seems like "already?", and in another way it seems "At Last.’". Those 400 some odd members who have never been president have no way of knowing what the position is like. Because we ran a tight and controlled event at Riverside we became known over the weekend as the Gestapo.. What ya gonna do? Things went well, uoone hit the wall thru turn 9, no one rolled, timing went off well. Imagine what it’s like to be chairman for an event where cars are going between 110 & 130 MPH and there are 158 of the little devils. You gotta pull the reins tight sometimes. I asked for an opinion early this year about the attitude of the membership toward Zone 8 competition series and haven’t much response. Last weekend 21 cars turned out to run a little low pressure rallye to Big Bear while 39 from LA went to Riverside for a do-or-die to win a trophy. Trophies are neat to have but are they worth the effort that some put in’ to win one. Maybe I’m different but I’ve always entered an event to enjoy myself or put on an event because I enjoyed the friendship and comradery that the atmosphere provoked. I have only seen this atmosphere prevail ~n Zone 8 Rallyes, certainly not in Time Trials and unfortunately not iu Concours either. I hope many many people turn out for the LA only Slalom in November. I quite honestly am tired of trying to pump people up to something that they just don’t have the desire to do. This month a letter was published in the POC Newsletter from a lady who moved away but was and still is very active in the club. The letter tells about a one day DRIVer’S SCHOOL at Sears Point, a PCA event that had uo cla~ses or trophies or cheaters or gripes but one heck of a lot of driving a~d learning. There was no long wait after only half of the day had gone by sitting in line to be timed so tha~ the $30.00 entry fee and the $28.00 hotel room and the $250. race tires and so forth could be rewarded with a $i0.00 trophy. Our society is ego blowing enough. Why must we publish a list that shows "last in class" or "slowest time of day". I hope someone in the LA Region reads this letter and makes a co~eut pro or con about its message (please don’t critize the grammar). At the October meeting a slate of candidates will be presented to the board and nominations are asked from the members present. Please don’t be silent when this happens. It is up to the members to govern the direction of the club and this is the time to do it. We have had a successful year to date, but without 2 or 3 key people it wouldn’t have happened. My suggestions are these: don’t gripe, rather suggest atleruatives, don’t look for a scapegoat but for a positive feature, talk to people about what you can do rather than to tell them what it wrong. Get my point. The board of directors are only people, like yourself, who Work all day and then try to manage a 400 member club in their spare time. Be tolerant. The princess will strike again on 27 Dec. try and be there to make it happen.

I’d like to welcome all the new members and hope none of them are competitive in Class A ’cause I don’t need the competition, but anyhow I also hope that they all come to the membership m~etln~s at the Marina, I’m the tall, dark and handsome stranger at the door ........... Jose Ochoa, membership.
~er devourin~ several pounds of barbequed hotdogs, everyone made their way to the bar for drinks. The meeting was then opened by president Ron Ramage at 8:35 PM at which time he welcomed new members and guests. Board reports were as follows: Vice Pres Kurt Schweickhard in charge of entertainment for all meetings announced that an African rally film will be shuwn at the next meeting. He also said the trophys for the PCA/POC Slalom will be awarded. Treasurer Ken Grace reported a bank balance of $6020. before the expenses for Riverside which, incidentally, was a profitable event. Tech Chairman John Williamson announced a tech meetin~ Sept 24th. He paid compliments to Rick Potts and Don Colwell for their success in running the Riverside Raceway ~vent. Publicity Director Jack Di~osario thanked Ron Ramage for doing the publicity for Riverside. Membership Chairman Jose Ochoa announced that the dues increase is now in effect at the new rate is $24.00/year. Ron said that we’ve been so pre-occupled with Riverside that 1976 nomination of new officers will be delayed one month. Nominations will be taken from the membership at the Oct meeting when a slate of contestants will also be presented to the members. Activities chairman Rick Potts read a llst of the POC/PCA Slalom winners. He announced forthcoming events and asked if anyone knew a place where the slalom in November could be held. Any large parking lot will do. There was an excellent slide presentation of the Riverside Time Trials taken by various members. Everyone seemed tolike themselves on the screen. Respectfully submitted, Geri Boothe, secretary.

ALL OF OUR THANKS TO PETE SMITH AT BOB SMITH PORSCHE AUDI FOR LOAN OF FACI~.ITY FOR TECH INSPECTION, TRUCK AT THE TRACK AND SPONSORSHIP OF THE TROPHIES. ’. ’.
On the fifth of October the president of this club sent 21 Porsches with inhabitants off into the mountains armed with 2 sheets of instructions. The first sheet said you must pay ’~i and then guess the mileage that you anticipated getting in your Porsche on a trip that would end at Big Bear Lake. After leaving that guess with the chairman, you were to leave only to arrive at some obscure intersection in the mountains at a oredetermined time. Early or late arrival time would give you an error that would be ~ounted against you. However, you weren’t just to drive there. Uoon arrivin~ you were to show oroof that you had visited a winery in Guasti or Cucamonga (b~eath tests didn’t count), you~had to know the street address of the Ontario Airport, a brochure from the Arboratem in Arcadia, a copy of the. San Gabriel Tribune Sunday funnies and know the posted oooulation of San Bernardino. ¯ Upon arriving we were instructed to fill our tanks and record milea.ues and ~allons. After that we went to Gold Mine near Moonri.dze where the local natives were having an OKTOB~RFEST celebration. Well we all showed our skills at the fair booths. If Harty Traxler ever throws a pie at you don’t worry, he’ll never hit you, or Jorge Juarez or Ralph Arredondo couldn’t hit you with a cork gun if there chain tensioner depended on it (not to mention the event chairman). The Oktoberfest looked fun but there were so many Germans there that you couldn’t tell what was going on. The Colwells made the trio in there 14 FOR 4, I think he raced his dad and morn all the way there (don’t know who won)] Bobby from Porschoo made the trio in her pretend Porsche. Pete Zimmerman enjoyed the Ritter Bier (~..~hatever ti~at is). A lot of new faces, but some people still had their same old ones. Phe winner of the day ?
You guessed it, the Duscketts (how do they do it ?).
