One of these months I'm NOT going to be writing this article at the last moment. I'm not sure exactly why or when, but someday.
So when does the Porsche Club of America calendar slow down? When you find out, please let me know. We have so many events that we are either in Idea Creation phase, in the middle of planning for, or smiling as we look back at ones recently completed and cleaning up the paperwork. Our Day Away from Work DE/Autocross is in the later category along with our trip to the ALMS race at Laguna Seca. Look for articles in the December Circuit.
In the "finishing touches" list is our December 6 Holiday Party, which is a "MUST ATTEND" event. This is go-ing to be something!!! Also on that list is our December 13 Nethercutt revisit and our January 10-11 Mystery Weekend. Oh yes, then there's the November 18-19 trip to the Porsche Sport Driving School in Alabama.
I could go on and on, but just stay tuned and keep watching the Circuit and our emails.
We do have a new advertiser this month. ImagineAuto was founded ten years ago by Stephen Kaspar, National PCA Turbo Tech Advisor. They focus mostly on Porsche motor rebuilds — most of their clients being out of state (which is why a business in Kansas is advertising in a California newsletter). They are very involved in the Kansas City Region of PCA, as well as cars involved in Club Racing and DEs. ImagineAuto is known for their Hands On approach to building a client's dream car.
As the Holiday Season approaches , please remember our Fundraising for ASUDEC (see the article on page 25). Our Annual Silent Auction at the upcoming Holiday Party is always a major component of our efforts. We are currently looking for donations. Not only does it raise money for ASUDEC, but it makes for a very interesting (and fun) component for the Holiday Party. I still remember Marty Noonan "stealing" a set of Porsche Design golf clubs a few years back. I understand that we may have a driver's suite from the ALMS Penske Porsche RS Spyder team! (I wonder what size).
Our Breakfast Club Meeting is coming up this Saturday. Be there at 9:00AM for an all-you-can-eat breakfast, a parking lot full of Porsches to look at, 75+ great people to come hang with, and a few items that we'll be giving away. One of our new advertisers, Kenny Bournstein of Accutrack is going to be bring certificates for things like Oil Changes and other services. You may be interested.
Stay tuned. There's lots on the block coming up!

Why are we making two visits to the Nethercutt Museum in � months? During last month's tour, Roger Lubeck noticed the Nethercutt Restoration Facility and found out that he could arrange for a small group (�0) to visit on December 1�. This is not something they publicize, and we owe this opportunity to Roger's resourcefulness.
The Nethercutt is one of the most impressive private car collections we have visited. And it's more than just cars! The collection of self-playing musical instruments is amazing. During the Holiday Season they conduct small concerts. At 2:00pm there will be an Organ Concert and, the entire facility will be decorated to the 9's.
Two choices on travel to the Nethercutt: 1. Meet behind the Federal Building on Wilshire Blvd (off the I-405) at 8:�0 am for a 9:00 SHARP departure. 2. Go directly to the Nethercutt Collection and meet there at 9:45 Nethercutt: 15151 Bledsoe St, Sylmar, CA (818) �64-6464
We will gather at the Nethercutt by 9:45 am for a 2-hour tour of the Collection and Restoration Facility.
RSVP for Restoration Tour (only the first �0 people can go) Mail $5.00 per person (donation to ASUDEC) to: PCAGPX c/o Suesan Way, 10�85 Bonnie Ln, La Mesa, CA 91941 For info: [email protected] or 619-992-4287
The Nethercutt Tour II — Restoration Facility Tour & Holiday Season Organ Concert
The Nethercutt Collection & Museum — over 240 automobiles.
In 1956, J.B. Nethercutt purchased two cars, a 19�6 Duesenberg Convertible Roadster for $5,000 and a 19�0 DuPont Town Car for $500, both needed total refurbishing. He estimated that the DuPont restoration would take a few weeks, but it took 18 months and over $65,000. It was shown at The Pebble Beach in 1958 where it won “Best of Show”. Since1958, Mr. Nethercutt has won Pebble Beach six times, more than any other individual. The Duesenberg and DuPont are still in the Collection.

As I think about my Pacific Porsche Open House experi-ence, I realize that it did not start that afternoon at Pacific Porsche. It started a little earlier than I thought it would. After arriving at the GPX Breakfast Club Meeting and exited my car with camera in hand, my one thought was to capture the events of the morning Breakfast Club Meet-ing. I needed pictures of GPX members and their cars, to be used in the November issue of the Circuit.
I was also eager to attend the Pacific Porsche Open House with the introduction of the 2009 Porsche Carrera and the new PDK transmission. I had heard a lot about the new transmission from other GPX members. I also read the excellent August Panorama magazine article about the Doppelkupplung (double clutch) gearbox.
While walking from my car, I was greeted by GPX mem-bers as usual, some I hadn’t seen in a while. Out of the cor-ner of my eye I could see a group crowded around a new blue Cabriolet. After my conversations ended, I walked over see the new car and to my surprise I discovered that it was the 2009 Carrera. At first glance I could not see any distinguishing differences in this 2009 model. Looking into the engine compartment I could see one difference, it was a lot more open than previous models. I could look across the top of the engine and see the fire wall. Sitting inside the car, I notice the paddles shifters on either side of the Steering wheel. Looking down at the gear selector I could see that it indeed had the new PDK transmission. PDK was embossed on the front of the gear selector in large letters. There was no guessing that this car has the new transmission.
After arriving at Pacific, I could hear the band as it played, Ump-Pa-Pa. It was Octoberfest at Pacific Porsche. There were people in line to test drive the new Porsche, while others were sitting at umbrella covered tables with black linen table cloths.
I decided that I would eat first and take a test drive later. Approaching the buffet lunch table, I could see a large variety of foods to select from. There was Roast Beef, Bar-becue Chicken, Bratwurst, Red Cabbage, German Potato Salad, and Green Salad. To quench your thirst you could select from beer, soda, and water. For those with a sweet tooth you could there was Apple Strudel and German chocolate cake.

Serving the food was a group of very nice young ladies dressed in Octoberfest attire. The ladies, Nathalie, Lu-ciane, Monika, Mariana, and Allie added greatly to the Octoberfest theme.
While eating I was told that the wait time to test drive the new Porsche was 45 minutes and getting longer, so I quickly covered my food and got in the test drive line. There I was greeted by a very nice young lady with clipboard in hand by the name of Carlye Mooney. After verifying my California drivers license, she added my name to her list.
Finally my turn arrived. The brief downpour of rain had forced the top to be raised on both of the blue Cabriolets. Salesman Kam Noghreh brought the Cabriolet up and I climbed behind the wheel. Kam got in the passenger seat. As I buckled up and adjusted the seat, Kam explained some of the new features of the 2009 Carrera. He ex-plained that this engine had more horsepower and is more fuel efficient than previous models. He went on to give details of the PDK transmission, and how to select the automatic and manual transmission modes.
With the vehicle in the automatic mode, I exited the park-ing lot, making a right turn on to Pacific Coast Highway. Accelerating, I noticed how smoothly the transmission shifted from gear to gear. As I braked for the light, the transmission was just as smooth going down the gears. The ride and experience was excellent to this point.
At the next light I moved the gear selector to the manual mode. Because of the traffic and our route, I was not able to really give it the test I wanted in the manual mode. There was a brief time where I was able to accelerate mov-ing the gears quickly from first to second and briefly to third, but soon I was braking for the next light. All too soon we were back on Pacific Coast Highway and Pacific.
This smooth shifting transmission is great. The new design paddle shifter is easy and fun to use. My brief test drive in this car was delightful. This is the perfect car for Freeway and Weekend/Track driving. I would love to have a PDK Carrera S or 4S coupe in my garage. Maybe some day I will.
Thanks to Pacific Porsche for the great opportunity to test drive the new 2009 PDK Porsche. I eventually get back to my lunch and enjoyed the rest of the afternoon with the band, GPX friends and a very pleasant day.

It all started when I got my first Volkswagen — I was 15 and got my license. I fell in love with how inexpensive the VW was to operate and work on. As a kid, I got into modifications to impress my friends. They all had VWs fixed up to suite their own style. Over the years I've had lots of different VWs — from a 1950 Split Window to a '57 Oval Window, a 27-window bus and, finally, a '64 Notchback. The Notchback was only sold in Europe (and I still have it after 25 years and many configurations). After years of wishing, saving my pennies and putting my son through college (he's still there working on his Masters), my natural progression was from VW to Porsche. I started the search for my Dream Porsche! I didn't want to just get any Porsche, it had to be everything I wanted! I loved the look of the '73 Carrera RS (the Duck Tail is so unique), but to get an original I would have had to sell my house and live in the car (but the seats don't fold down)! Next was the Carrera SC. I thought when I thought that it could be the one! I just love the shape of a Carrera body, just like a beautiful women (curves in all the right spots)! I never thought Porsche could make a more perfect car! Then the 993 Carrera S came out and I almost died. They did it! They made a Porsche even sexier than anything previous. And did I look for my perfect 993 S. I thought: 2-wheel drive, a 1998 (last year), dark blue with black interior and a 6 speed. I looked everywhere and in everything. In 8 months only 3 cars came close, but not close enough. I broadened my search. Second choice was Silver and Black. After another 6 months I found it — a 1997 Carrera 4S down in Del Mar. I drove it on two separate occasions and really liked how the 4S handled. The rear end stuck when I jumped on it, unlike the earlier 911s I had driven! I thought this might be more forgiving, especially my first Porsche. I new I had to go to the track and learn how to drive! I made the right choice — the car is everything I wanted! I've made just a few modifications: lowered, sport suspension, factory sport seats, Euro lenses, Euro RS steering wheel, alum pedals, 2S rear grille, silver hood badge, window tint and some carbon fiber. Oh, and don't let me forget an award winning detail! My car makes me smile like nothing else I have ever had! (except my son, of course). European car's are in my blood! Germany has a little town "Lubeck." Someday I will go to claim it as my own and Porsche will be the official car!

Rod Williams joined PCA about 2 years ago, and has been a regular at our events ever since. He always shows up in this fabulous looking 1990 Guards Red 911 C2 (see front cover). It's easy to pick out... just look for the most radiant car in the lot.
Rod often shows up with various members of his family, which is always a pleasure. At our last two Queen Mary Concours, Rod's car won its class and, in 2007 took home the People's Choice Award.
It's not surprising to find out that what Rod does for a living is running a business called Rod's Detailing. His motto is: "I'll make your car shine at your place or mine."
Rod tells us: "I enjoy working in his yard, helping out around my neighborhood, and interacting with all of my neighbors. I also enjoy spending time with my family and the different activities we par take in but, my ultimate satisfaction comes from keeping my girl squeaky clean — Ms Birdie. On a Monday morning back in January 2006, I was surfing the net like I did every morning, but this Monday my luck changed when I saw the word “For Sale” on this beautiful Red 1990 Porsche. After picking myself up off the floor, I thought everyone must have been calling on this car. After catching my breath, I called and, to my surprise, I was the first to call. We talked and as they say the rest is History. As for her name, Ms. Birdie, this car is beautiful and strong just like the lady she was named after, my Mom."
(Ed: If you're interested in an appointment for Rod's Detailing, give him a call at 310-749-9594)

The Breakfast Club Meeting held on the First Satur-day of October was greeted by a series of ominous and threatening clouds. On gloomy days like this, we often see many of our members non-Porsches adorning the parking lot, and many others choosing to stay home in their warm beds and not risk getting their Porsches wet by the potential rain.
Not on this day however. This gloomy day had an absolutely spectacular turnout (which we’ve almost become completely accustomed to). Grand Prix Region members show up every month with regularity, and many bring friends. Those in attendance are sure to have bonding opportunities with someone else if, for no other reason, the one primary fact that everyone they will ultimately encounter also love Porsches. What could be better than that?
Looking around the sunshine lacking parking lot, it was easy to check out GT2s, a GT3RS, Cayennes, Caymans, Carreras, Cabriolets, 914s, 944s, Turbos, 356s, 912s, all range of 911s, Boxsters, a Spyder and on and on and on — nothing but Porsches stretched out as far as the eyes could see.
Anyway, October’s meeting was highly spirited as our members were able to partake in a huge raffles and give-a-way. Pacific Porsche's Carl Toffelmire and Lenny Yee showed up with a host of wonderful raffle items. Thank you very much Pacific Porsche. In addition, there was an assortment of raffle items brought by Skip Carter, Suesan Way, John and Joyce Perchulyn and Joe Bryant. A large number of our club members walked away carrying some very nice prizes.
Our Goodie Store is sporting some new attire, and we’d like to compliment and commend DeJur Jones and Bob Baddy for scoring those incredibly stylish Porsche shirts designed specifically for our female members. The bright sparkling shirts were the hit of the Goodie Store.
Other highlights included a large number of potential new members that were in attendance, along with 10-year member Reggie Garmon, a Palmdale resident attending his first Breakfast Club. Our newest GPX members are Jack and Ginny Case, Not only are they Charter Members of PCA (their Boxster license plate sports "PCA in 55"), but Ginny won the grand raffle prize (see photo).

Speaking of long-term membership, John and Patty Reilly, who we erroneous stated as 32 years members on their last anniversary, are actually 44 year members of PCA. We apologize for the previous error. John and Patty are hot on the heels of Jack and Ginny. The rest of us are hoping that we can not only own Porsches for as many decades, but enjoy them as much as these two couple do (personally, I’m still in my first decade of Porsche ownership, so I’ve got a ways to go to catch either of them).
Arturo Chaparro was also in attendance sporting the brand Porsche Design 60th Anniversary watch that he won at last month’s Breakfast Club raffle. Remember, to win a prize, you must be present.
Others in attendance were Ruben Archilla, Bob Baddy, Gary Bengtson, Marc Bixen, John Blakely, Cleant Brown, Joe Bryant, Jeremy Campbell, Skip Carter, Elliott Chandler, Richard Clewett and his son Paul, Norma Ann Dawson, Steven Erickson, Bill and Cierra Haney, Richard Elliott, Bob Folkman, Albert Franco, Jimmie Mitchell, Marty Friedman, Robert Friedman, Lee Gaucher, Steve Glas, Marty Goldberg, Marty and Brita Goldsmith, Rod Guyton, Hazel Hofsess, Alan Hosea, Gentry Humphrey, DeWayne Ichiria, Tommy Johnson, DeJur, Mike Jones, Jon LeCarner, Dal B. Lee, Roy Lock, Roger “Cover Boy” Lubeck, Frank Medrano, David and Susan Moard, Mitch Moreland, Pete and Margo Novak, John and Joyce Perchulyn, Nick Perdikaris, Marty Petcoff , Allan Rosenberg, Jack Sciranka, Ron Shanon, Rennison Sherrett, Dan Stern, Steve Sweet, Mike Takaki, Peter Vasquez, Ron Wal-ecki, Robert Wessels, Greg and Shannon White (name change noted and congratulations), Rod Williams and Mike Wilson. If I inadvertently omitted or misspelled any names, my sincere apologies.
As you can see, we had a lot of members and potential members show up, and I’m sure that each and every one of them can tell you what a great time they had. After the meeting, many members didn’t want to go home, so a large number caravanned over to the open house being held at Pacific Porsche. Once there, we were able to stuff ourselves with more food, gifts, mu-sic, a golf swing analysis, Haas Entertainment electron-ics, Porsche test drives and general fun.
If you missed it… you just flat out missed it. How about we see you next month?

There will be vendors dedicated to our Porsche hobby and plenty of swap space will be available. If you have a car for sale, bring it and put a sign and information sheet in the window and sell it.

November 2008
To achieve its goals and accomplish its mission, ASUDEC focuses itself on community projects that will, among other things, improve children’s education, provide micro credits and promote micro enterprise development with a special aim toward empowering African women economically, particularly in poor rural areas, and develop volunteer programs that bring youths from all over Africa and the world to share with one another how to reduce differences and build friendship to enhance local and global peace and social harmony.
ASUDEC avoids handouts in its approach to encourage self-promotion and constructive risk-taking. It has adopted one of its international partners Heifer International’s practice of passing on the gift. It has adapted that practice to the culture of African solidarity to promote an interdependent system of development.
In the case of its poultry project, ASUDEC, with the assistance of Heifer International, contributes from 2 to 10 hens per project beneficiary. When ASUDEC contributes, for example, 10 hens to a fam-ily, it deals with all the veterinary care for at least 12 months, the time necessary for the recipient to reproduce at least 300 hens and be convinced of the advantages of and adopt the good practices they are being taught. From the 300 hens reproduced, ASUDEC requires only 20 hens, 10 to support a new family in need and 10 to contribute to the ASUDEC’s enormous costs.
ASUDEC requests that each of its recipients who are benefited directly by its projects, contribute a small amount toward their community’s expenses. The extent to which an aid recipient is expected to contribute varies depending on a village’s needs. Each participating village elects a Local Sustainable De-velopment Council of ASUDEC that is responsible for managing the resources contributed by ASUDEC, and is accountable for those resources before the village assembly. Thus, ASUDEC’s recipients become aid givers, not only to other families, but also to their own communities.
Please join GPX in its efforts to be an aid giver by attending the annual Holiday Party on December 6, 2008. It will be an intimate and elegant event at the lovely Ladera Heights home of GPX member Bar-
bara Gillam. Following a fabulous dining experience under the stars, you will be able to munch popcorn while watching adrenaline boosting race movies in a private big screen theater setting and reminiscing about the great times GPX has had this past year, while bidding for priceless mementos in GPX’s annual silent auction whose proceeds will benefit ASUDEC.
For more information, please go to www.asudec.org/sommaireENG.php3 or contact [email protected].
