TruSpeed Tech Session By Bruce Pollock • Photos by Jeff Peck Saturday, Sunshine, Porsches and Porsche People. OK, well a little fog on the trip there, but all in all a beautiful Southern California Saturday morning—perfect for a drive to TruSpeed Motorcars in Costa Mesa to see what’s new there and some Porsche education.
Los Angeles Region
General Manager Dave Cohen spoke awhile and introduced Dennis Aase who has recently merged his activities with TruSpeed. He spoke about TruSpeed’s racing activities and their race car preparation as well as “arrive-and-drive” programs that they plan to offer.

The Saturday was January 29, 2011. The sunshine was warm and welcome. The Porsches numbered more than thirty. And more than forty people were happy to be out and doing Porsche Stuff.

After greetings from our membership chair, Joe Shubitowski, TruSpeed service manager Wes Simmons spoke about Boxster and other model Intermediate Shaft issues, Synthetic oil and the focus of TruSpeed in general. All quite educational. His talk made it clear that TruSpeed recognizes that education is primary among the factors in operating a successful service organization with a roster of satisfied clients who keep returning for services. Education and the free exchange of verified information is key to the success in any field of activity.
