PCA-LA at a GLANCE

Tech Membership

PCA-LA is 550 diverse Porsche owners. We are young and old, novice and expert, slow and fast. PCA-LA is a "region" of Porsche Club of America, the largest one marque non-factory club in the world. On a national level, PCA publishes an excellent monthly magazine, PORSCHE PANORAMA, and generally provides a forum for learning. But the club part is local. And what PCA-LA offers is an opportunity to share the exhilarating (and sometimes frustrating) experience of understanding, maintaining and driving one of the most unique automobiles of all time. Enjoy.

Our Riverside Four Club Time Trial was a great success with a total of 117 drivers competing with a little over a third being PCA drivers. We were blessed with excellent weather even for July, good fun, only one seriously damaged car, good track conditions, and an event that stayed right on schedule. That was the good news. The bad news is that we didn’t make as much money as we had hoped due to the increasing expense of running such an event. For your information, it now costs almost $5,500 to rent Riverside for a weekend of racing and staff it with corner workers. Up-Coming events should provide something for everyone so please check the Activities Calendar inside. Although you’ll be getting flyers, of special note is our General Membership meeting on October 25th, scheduled at the California Yacht Club. We’ll be having a speaker from Bell Helmets, a promotional film on the up-coming Parade and a few surprises! Trophies will be distributed for Riverside and Willow Time Trials. Then on December 16th, our annual Christmas Party which promises to be bigger and better than ever including prizes for everyone and great entertainment. We can use your help in soliciting door prizes. If you or someone you know or do business with, would like to contribute to this extravaganza, please let us know.

It might come as a surprise to you, but the Los Angeles Region, an area presumed to have the most Porsches per square foot, stands only tenth on the list of Porsche Club of America regions with a total membership as of June 30, 1984 of 494. The following is a list of the top ten regions by membership count: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. B. 9. 10.

Some of you may not know, but the Porsche Factory publishes a beautiful bi-monthly magazine (in English) called Christophorus, the bible for Porsche enthusiasts. If you would like to subscribe, subscriptions may be obtained by writing to:

The annual Porsche Parade, this year in Appleton, Wisconsin, has come and gone. By all reports it was very successful with no unusual problems. There were 585 entrants in all with 25 people showing up from Zone 8. Ron Mistak of Orange Coast Region, in his beautifully prepared 914/6, took Top Time of Day in the speed event held on the Road America course. Vern Covert, of the L.A. Region, as always, did well in all three events (Concours, Speed, Rally) in his fantastic 904. John Clever of the Golden Gate Region won the Rally for a truly remarkable second year in a row. Chuck Stoddard, Past President of PCA took overall honors in the Concours with his 1949 Gmund Coupe. You will of course, be reading all about the Parade in "Panorama" shortly. Mark your 1985 calendars for June 30 through July 6 for the 30th Annual Porsche Parade to be held right here in Southern Callfornia at the South Coast Plaza Hotel. For those of

Enjoy your Porsche safely.

LETTER

Let me for the moment describe my situation, for those who do not know. Here I was in the Land of Porsches, with my 77 Targa in Syracuse, and me driv-

tl~ the EDITOR

ing a fecal Dodge Colt with a bare bones econobox package consisting of about 125-98 SR slush belteds, with a typical Jap FWD driveline, lugging an air conditioner and ME (no comments about an anchor, now). Let me tell you, the next car I need, I’ll look real close at the Colt Turbo. Despite her trying to lose me after she’d watched me follow her for four rights in a row, the lady in the 944 just couldn’t claim to have the PORSCHE skills. After six rights, I was still right with her as she turned the only left, into her driveway. The reception said more about Southern California than anything else I could imagine, and it was only as I saw her rolling up the windows and locking the doors, while leaning on the horn for her husband to come out

Reprinted with permission from the Red Line Report the bul/etin of the Central New York Region, Bill Drapkin, Editor. Those of you who were at Dusty’s barbeque will no doubt remember Joe. His photo was with the article about the barbecue. Apparently, Joe enjoyed the party as much as we enjoyed his company. I can’t say that I exactly agree with his assessment of our home/and, but he was only here a short time so he can be forgiven. Having never seen upstate New York, I just might take him up on his invitation.

JohnSchiewe

Dear Porsche Pushers-

with the shotgun, that I remembered that this joint spawned the SLA, the Hillside Strangler, and Charlie Manson. So I started yelling, from across the road as I got out with my Porsche shirt on, "I’m not a rapist, I just want to know if you can tell me if there are any PCA events while I’m in town" and proceeded to tell my tale of woe. We all had a good laugh and, yes, there was a barbeque at a Malibu Ridge home overlooking the ocean on Saturday to which I was immediately invited. After all you’ve read above, you can see that I was primed for a lousy time of blow-dried hair and gold chains. Nothing could have been further from the truth, as I was made to feel as though I had been a member for years, and I had what was absolutely the brightest spot in two weeks which contained some very high and brutally tough times. My thanks to all the PCA’ers there, and especially the Schiewe family for their gracious hospitality. I hope someday to repay the thought. -Joe Holzer

Let me tell you a little travel story, about a fantasyland called California. For those not familiar with the place, all kinds of pre-conceived notions come to mind; bronze skinned, bikini clad, free-love advocates; automobiles to boggle the mind; movie stars and fast living; and friendly people looking for a good time. Take it from me, only a very little of that is true. The reality is that there is a place waiting for the bubble to burst, While the beaches are certainly filled with bronzed beauties, and their boardwalk areas have scantily clad people always passing by, the Sony Walkman has insured that none will be disturbed by another human being. Everyone seems to be moving, but no one seems to go anywhere. They just keep biking, running, skating surfing and generally existing despite no visible means of support, in the most expensive area of the country outside Hawaii. To live there you must live as though you had money, because that is the only thing which impresses ANYONE there, whether you do or not.

PCA-LA Region

On the other hand, if I COULD afford to live there, I would surely want to live on the Malibu Canyon Ridge, overlooking both canyon and ocean. You have never seen nature in such majesty. Suddenly even a Porsche becomes insignificant. And maybe that’s the whole idea, anyway. With more Porsches in two blocks than you’ll find here in two months, they lose much of their lustre. Certainly, all those people can’t claim to be sufficiently skilled to be Porsche drivers! I had a chance to test that theorem. Since I expected to be there for two weekends, and since my job entailed the prospect of disciplinary action with any of the visited plant personnel thereby making it awkward to socialize with any, I decided to seek out some who might have at least some commonality with me: The PCA. However, as I later discovered, the phone listings I had were far from current, and no success was had making contct through dealers either. So it looked like I was going to miss any events, until I was passed by a 944 with a

August 16, 1984 To all PCA Region Newsletter Editors: Please help me communicate my sincere thanks to the 600+ members of PCA for signing the petition to have my name placed on the national ballot for the office of treasurer for the 1985-86 term.

As of this writing, the petitions are on their way to PCA National. We don’t yet know if my name will be on the ballot. The exact date that is used to determine the number of members and the number of verified petition signators are unknown today. This is an appropriate time to express my basic views (platform, if you will) to the voting membership. First and foremost, I think the functioning and decision making of the club should be more open and able to receive member input. That can be accomplished by publishing, well in"advance, the agenda for council and board meetings so the zone raps/presidents can vote on issues based on the members’ views.

Secondly, I think there should be a dollar limit on any single club purchase or expenditure without membership approval. The treasurer’s office should have the responsibility of monitoring this and of informing the members of the pros and cons of large expenses, such as the purchase of a computer before it is brought to a vote of the board.

The Valuation function is operating quite smoothly, with contributors sending the newspapers regularly, and the number of Porsches advertised (through 1976 models) remaining roughly constant. It is interesting to note that the increase in value of older Porsche automobiles has apparently ended, at least for a while, with most models now at price levels just slightly below those of about two years ago. But, then, what else can you buy besides real estate that keeps its dollar value over time?

.EM OI IAI., FOUI CI.,UB EVEN " by Tom Linton

The Annual Peter Gregg Memorial 4-Club Event for 1984 was a big success. As usual, I showed up Saturday morning a little on the late side, so it was a mad rush to get the car ready. Luckily, my run group was the third to go out, so I had a little extra time to prepare. After finding my garage (which was a real coup to get) I started unloading our support vehicle, otherwise known as the station wagon. I was parked next to Carl Young and the Porschaus entry, who had the largest pit crew I had ever seen. Boy, was I envious of all those helpers. By the time the drivers’ meeting was called, I had two tires on with a long way to go. The drivers’ meeting started on time and went accordingly. Saturday turned out to be a beautiful day, even though it was quite warm. My new trick set-up of removing

24 HOURS OF LE MANS by Jeff Bear

It was 3:00 p.m., June 16, 1984, with the airtemperature in the high 80s. Fifty-three cars were ready to start the third race of the World Endurance Championship. Missing were the works Rothmans-Porsches, withdrawn in protest against fuel regulation changes made by F ISA. In the absence of the factory representatives stood sixteen privateer Porsches, including such pre-race favorites as two 956’s fielded by New Man and Skoal Bandits, and the Canon and the Kremer teams, Crowd sentiment was with two Jaguar factory XJR5’s which, although slower than the other Group C cars, had a great fuel consumption advantage allowing them to stay on the track 10 to 15 minutes longer before making a pit stop.

occupied by the New Man Porsches with pre-race favorite Stephen Johanson sitting comfortably in his Number 8 car. Fifth on the grid was the Number 14 Canon Porsche, and in sixth position the Number 35 Skoal Bandit Porsche. After the traditional running start, the leaders included a surprise showing by the 2.6 liter turbocharged Peugot driven by Roger Dorchy, who had also clocked the fastest time down the 3½ mile Mulsanne Straight at 231 miles per hour. Possibly pushing too hard for such a long race, the Peugeot crashed early on.

Also figuring in pre-race investments were three works Lancia-Martinis and two Aston-Martin Nimrods.

Five and one-half hours into the race, the LanciaMartini was in first place, one lap ahead of the Skoal Bandit Porsche. The other works Lancia was third, followed in order by the Kremer and Swap Shop Porsches. In sixth and seventh were the two Jaguars. Group C-2 was led by the B.F. Goodrich Lola-Mazda on streetradials.

The starting front line was 100% Lancia-Martini, with Bob Wollek having won the pole with a 3:17.11, 155 mile-per-hour qualifying lap, and the second Lancia clocking in only 3 seconds slower. The second row was

The otherwise beautiful Le Mans dusk was marred when John Sheldon’s Aston-Martin went out of control at the fastest part of the Mulsanne Straight, cannoning into a barrier and catching fire. The second Aston-14-


Martin driven by Draie Olson was also involved. Sadly, one marshal was killed, and another gravely injured. Sheldon suffered third degree burns and Olson was badly shaken. Much to the dismay of the drivers the race was not stopped, but continued for 1:02 under the pace car. At midnight, 41 of 53 cars were still in the race. The Lancias were in first and second only 3 to 5 seconds apart. The Swap Shop and Skoal Bandit Porsches were in third and fourth positions respectively, followed by the Jaguars in fifth and seventh, and the Alan Jones driven Porsche in sixth, Lancia maintained the first two spots halfway through the race, but were now one lap apart. On the same lap as the second place car was the Skoal Bandit, followed by the Number 7 New Man Porsche which had moved up very quickly from the 31st position it had occupied at the end of the first hour. The Swap Shop Porsche was in fifth, and a Jaguar in sixth place, At 6:30 a.m. the Lancia was still in first, but now closely followed by the Skoal Bandit Porsche less than one lap behind. The New Man and Swap Shop Porsches -15-

were in third and fourth, followed by the Number 44 Jag. The B.F. Goodrich Lola-Mazda continued to lead Class C-2 as it would to and including the finish. At 7:30 a.m. the Lancia was sidelined with a stripped fifth gear leaving the New Man Porsche in first. The Number 44 Jag was in the pits having lost third gear, with the other Jaguar hopeful already out as the result of a crash. At the twenty-hour mark Porsche privateers occupied the first four positions. The Lancia was in fifth, and the Jaguar in sixth, but both retired shortly thereafter with gear problems. The finish at 3:00 p.m. the following day found the Number 7 Ludwig/Pescarolo driven New Man Porsche the winner, two laps ahead of the second place Swap Shop Porsche. The Skoal Bandit Porsche took third. Fourth through seventh, and ninth places were also taken by Porsche 956’s with a Lancia LC2 taking eighth, and the B.F. Goodrich Lola-Mazda 616 taking tenth place on street radials. All in all Le Mans was once again a Porsche event, especially when the absence of the factory prepared cars is considered.


the membership role sans computer is next to impossible; PCA National still can’t get around to sending us membership applications, although we’ve managed to acquire a limited number by alternative means; and I have a long list of new members not welcomed to PCALA to whom I must apologize. Absent a computer, there’s no way I can personally bid farewell to members who have moved or greet members who have transferred to Los Angeles Region. I hope that my firm will soon be computerized and these problems will be re so I ved.

colors and pageantry. Then there was the enthusiasm. Everyone, especially Americans because of their prominence, cheering their country’s athletes on and waving their flags. But there was a major difference from other sporting events I had attended before. This was not like a UCLA-USC football game. The cheering was all "for" not "against." Even if the U.S. was not competing, the crowds were almost as loud as when they were. The stragglers in the races were cheered almost as loudly as the victors. I’ll never forget the very small goalee from Algeria in team handball. His team was hopelessly dominated by a very good Romanian team whose front line rained shot after shot on the Algerian goal. He continued, despite the unbalanced score, to make diving, leaping blocks to the roars of the crowd who revelled in his "Olympian efforts."

fAILLIGHfS--

I realized that the cheers were for the effort and spirit, not just for the victory. An exceptional effort was lauded regardless of the nationality. The cheers were for the effort. Now that life has returned to normal here in LA, it seems that some of the spirit remains. How much and for how long it remains will be seen later, but it should make us in PCA think a bit.

Everything in August tool<a back seat to the Olympics. I don’t know how many of you attended any of the events, but I’m sure most of you saw some of the TV coverage. Watching TV, I’m sure, conveyed some of the spirit of the games, but you really had to be there, Having attended about 10 events, I really got caught up in the spirit,

At Riverside, several controversies arose concerning rules violations and fairness. Is it really so important always to come in first? Isn’t it enough to be out there on the track, doing the best you and your car can do within the rules. Doesn’t it feel wonderful to push yourself and your car to your limits. Isn’t that the goal rather than winning at all costs. There were few PCA/LA members competing at Riverside (I guess we don’t support time trials either) and none were directly involved in the controversies as far as I know, but it seems timely in the afterglow of the Olympics to remember that the really important thing, the only important thing is the effort.

The first reaction was to the festivity. The bright
