1 TOBACCO ROADS July 2008 Carolinas Region Autocross and Porsche of Hickory Picnic Delmar Kiser, Hickory Area Director Thanks to all who made the June 7 trip to the Hickory Area s first autocross. Carolinas members turned out in large numbers to take part in the hottest event of the year. It literally was the hottest event with temps at 100 degrees and water disappearing as fast as high octane gas. The course was very special to take advantage of the area available. Vincent Bray and Becca Cook were on hand Friday evening to get much of the course set up. We were joined by Walter Stone Saturday morning to put on the finishing touches. We had 7 run groups with a total of 36 drivers taking time. Class 1 winner was Will Balance at Class 2 was taken by Jerry Kilcrease at Class 3, Steven, Zakely, Class 4, Mathew Pavelchak , which was also Mens Fastest Time. Class 5 went to John Meek at Class 6 to Kent Clayton, Class 7 was James Stanislaw at Ladies Fast Time was Cari Steinbrueck (See other driver s times on page 22.) The day was such a success that Porsche of Hickory is already thinking of making it an annual event. After the autocross, our group moved to Hickory s Civitan Park where Hickory Auto Group had a great picnic set up for all Carolinas region members and Hickory Auto Group employees. We were greeted by ribs and chicken from Firebones with dessert by Udderly Delicious Ice Cream. After too much to eat and lots of Porsche talk we moved to the softball field where the Carolinas Region members and guests took on the sales staff of our event sponsor. The Carolinas Region members proved to be too much for the competition, winning two games back to back and taking home the trophy. Led by Ron "the rocket" Reed's pitching and stellar play by Bob Seville, Bill Williams, Vincent Bray, Jerry Kilcrease and most of the Widner family, the Porsche guys let everyone know we can have a great time with the cars sitting still. Our thanks go to Porsche Of Hickory and Hickory Auto Group for all the hard work and funding that it takes to make this kind of day possible. Also thanks to Vincent, Becca, Walter and all those who put in a lot of work on a very hot day. Delmar Kiser Photos by Patrick McGinnis and Ron Reed.

6 Around the Region Bob Saville I m writing this with Parade only one week away. By the time you read this, the circus will have left town, and we will start needing to get the Carolinas Region back on track with our year. I have no doubt that Parade turned out great. All the people involved, led by Harvey Yancey, have put an amazing amount of effort into this. When you see someone who was involved with the planning or execution of such a huge event, just say, thank you. These people have put aside their personal time to make things fun and easy for the rest of us, and they deserve our appreciation. On June 7, we held our autocross at Porsche of Hickory. We had a great turn out with nearly 40 cars! Thanks to all involved with setting up and organizing it. Afterward, Porsche of Hickory held a wonderful picnic for all of us. We had a great time, with the highlight of the day being the Porsche Club softball team beating two Hickory Auto Group teams (service team and sales team). We not only beat them, we crushed them! So if you see Robert Yeomans up there, feel free to rub it in a little after all the trash talking he gave us all day leading up to the games!! Thanks Robert and the entire Hickory Auto Group team for such a great day! We owe you one!! Team Captain Delmar Kiser holds the trophy. July 19 we will be holding our Carolinas Region Summer BBQ and Pool Party at the home of Gene and Paula Kendrick in Spartanburg, SC. This is always a great time as the Kendricks have a wonderful property to hold a party. Plus...this is FREE to all Region Members and their families. Their yard allows us to park a lot of cars, so we also hold a Peoples Choice car show. Come on out, bring the family, and cool off in the middle of the summer. Just RSVP to the Kendricks at or paulakendrick@charter.net by Monday, July 14. See page 19 for information. On August 2, Speedwerks will be holding their annual Swap Meet at their facility in Thomasville. Contact Wayne Overman (wayne.overman@alltel.com) or Jerry Kilcrease (jkilcrease@triad.rr.com) for more information. HUEY UPDATE: As of today, June 20, Huey runs and almost looks like the Huey of old!! There is a list of things that need to be finished, like some of the trim work is not completed, there is a shifting issue (isn t there always in a 914?), needs an alignment, a few gauges are not hooked up, etc. But overall, he s getting there!! Nadine and I really want to thank Bill Dunster from Autobahn Collision, and John Forbes, his son Cody, and Chris from Black Forest Racing for putting in a lot of long nights to get Huey done. This past week alone, we left the shop at 11pm, 1am and 11pm on consecutive days. We re really tired. I hope to see you at an event soon!! July 2008 Page 6

7 Hickory Area Report Delmar Kiser, Area Director Summer certainly has heated up and club activities are hot as well. June was a very busy month with our big summer kick-off. We had our first autocross event on June 7, capped off with a region-wide picnic. Porsche of Hickory really got the season started with a bang by giving us their lot to set up a unique and challenging autocross. Thirty six drivers took time on the course in the 100 degree heat. [See the autocross/picnic report on pages 1 and 22 for class winners and times.] It proved to be a tough course with tight slalom runs and two elevation changes, but as usual our members took it on with enthusiasm and lots of speed. Men's FTD went to Mathew Pavelchak and Cari Steinbrueck set Fastest Ladies Time. After the autocross we traveled to a local park for the region wide picnic provided by Porsche of Hickory and Hickory Auto Group. We had a great time dining on ribs, chicken and homemade ice cream. Included in the festivities was a softball tournament with our Carolinas Region team taking the championship trophy. The trip home that night included lots of smiling faces and sore muscles. The June meeting was held on the 10th with a short drive to Morganton, NC for a dinner meeting at Judges Restaurant. Scott Roberts from Crown Point Resorts invited us to come up for a nice drive to the clouds and lunch on the mountain top on July 26. This will be a preliminary event to a concours show to be held in the same location in October. Hope everyone is up and ready for Parade 08 right here in our region, just a good time with 2,000 of our closest friends. The July meeting will be July 8 at 6:30 PM at Porsche of Hickory. We will be recapping parade and planning future meetings and events. Come on out and bring your ideas. Until then keep the greasy side down. Delmar Metrolina Area Report Mike Masterson, Area Director I would like to take this opportunity to pass on big congratulations to Harvey Yancey for his huge efforts in planning and organizing one of the largest Parade events in PCA history! Harvey and his team toiled relentlessly for the past 2+ years to present a great and successful event that will be remembered for a long time to come. I would also like to pass along big kudos to all the people who volunteered their time and efforts to making Parade Charlotte the success it was. Without them, this event would not have been possible. I would like to thank all those sponsors, large and small, for stepping up and giving their time and contributions to this year s Parade. Lastly, I would like to thank all those members who took the time to come from all over the U.S. and Canada to enjoy this gala celebration of all things Porsche. It is they who make this, the largest marque automobile club on the planet, the great organization that it is. Our next meeting will be Thursday, July 18 at 7:00 PM at Waldhorn Restaurant in Pineville, NC. I m sure there will be plenty of post-parade discussion going on! Remember to drive em like you stole em and always keep the shiny side up! Mike. July 2008 Page 7

8 Mountain Area Report Doug McKee, Area Director A nice turnout for a very hot 92 degree day in the mountains. Lots of discussion around the upcoming Porsche Parade in Charlotte; who is going, what time people are going, where people are parking, volunteering, etc. There is a group leaving for Parade on Sunday morning (June 29 th ) at 7 AM. Please connect with Doug if you're interested in coming along. Planning for Porschefest 2009 is underway. This 3-day event will be held over Memorial Day weekend (2009) in Asheville hosted by the Mountain Area. We're currently working on reserving hotel rooms, booking The Biltmore for a car show, a tour of the grounds and a meal, locating a place to host an Autocross and a whole lot more. On July 5 th, Deal with be hosting a complementary lunch for the Mountain Area members. After the lunch we will take a drive from Deal to Doug McKee's lake house. This drive is about 45 minutes on a very nice road (lots of curves). Bring your swimming attire, sunscreen and a snack to share. Children are welcome. On August 2 nd, we will be meeting at Deal and driving to Doug McKee's lake house for a potluck luncheon. Pack your potluck well, as mentioned above, the drive to the lake house, if driven properly, will make whipped cream out of cream. On August 9 th, our club as been invited to a complementary barbeque lunch with music at The Mast Farm Inn hosted by Club Ferdinand and Crown Point. The Mast Farm Inn is located just outside Boone, NC. We need to have a headcount for this event as food will be provided. Please Dale McCourt at dmccourt@gdrinc.net if you plan to attend.

We were glad to welcome first timers Mr & Mrs Reaves Logan, Blake Fraser, Scott Walker, Clint Spivey, Randy Marienville and Thomas Reaves. It was a busy evening as we had several special guests present upcoming events: John Hauser, a member of Corsa Rossa, invited members to their meeting on July 8 at the Winston Salem Eatery to hear Erhard Kostler s presentation on the Austrian Steyr Puch Halfinger that was produced in conjunction with Dr. Porsche. Rudy and Carol Streng, Executive Directors of Winston-Salem Concours d Elegance at Graylyn, gave an overview of the September event. Martin Stuart and Ken Stabler, representing the upcoming Crown Point Cruise, invited members to drive up to Crown Point, located in the Blue Ridge Mountains, for a picnic type get together along with other PCA regions on August 23 with a Fall Concours Charity Event to be held on October 13.

Sadie Kilcrease set up with some new Goodie Store items for ladies only. Ron Reed provided a video display of photographs taken at recent events for everyone to enjoy. It was a good meeting, everyone had fun and after eating, most of us headed out to the parking lot and continued to visit. PAST EVENTS: The Triad Area did not have any events scheduled for the month of June but quite a few of our members did make it to the Autocross and Picnic in Hickory on Saturday, June 7. The Hickory area PCA hosted the event and Porsche of Hickory was the sponsor. While it was quite a hot day, there were a lot of people there. There were 35 cars in the autocross including Triad members John Rutledge, Becca Cook, Vincent Bray, Sadie and Jerry Kilcrease. Triad area members Dale and Jane Hewitt, Ron and Tanya Reed, Art and Randi July 2008 Page 10

13 Triangle Area Report by Martin Salas Scott Roberts from Club Ferdinand attended this meeting to personally extend an invitation to our group to come to one of their upcoming PCA Chapter Events at Crown Pointe. Club Ferdinand is holding monthly fun events during the summer and is inviting the PCA areas within a 2-hour drive to Crown Pointe. The plan is to have a BBQ lunch with some fun games and a raffle. Then on October 18, they will hold a charity event inviting all the areas. After discussing the dates with the group, it was determined that July 26 will work best for the Triangle Area. The next item discussed was the volunteer work done by some of the club members during the American Diabetes Association 'Tour de Cure' this past June 7. I would like to thank the following people who made an effort to get up very early in the morning to help. Registration/Check-In: Jeff Schiff, Dustin Tarditi, and Ed Beroset Breakfast Station: Linda and Peter Sotriffer, Torre Edwards, and Ian Edgerly On-route at a turn for the Family Run: Bill Hindman Finish-Line rest stop: Randy Hayward As I was helping with traffic, I got to see the different groups depart but a few minutes later I saw the advanced group driving back to the starting line. Apparently, the experienced group had no need for help on directions so there was no one to tell them their route. They just drove around the lake at Regency Park! It was funny to see the faces of all those 'experienced' drivers as they were arriving back to the starting line. :-) We also discussed the upcoming August Tail of the Dragon event. Everyone is ready and has booked the hotels which by now are sold out. If other members wish to participate, they can still find hotels at other locations. If interested, send me an . The last item on the agenda was the results of the May 28 poll to determine if moving the meeting place and time would increase participation. Unfortunately, response was poor. Out of the 150 members, only 14 responded and 8 of the responses were from members who frequently attend the meetings. The net result is that a location around the Briar Creek area may be a better location but no change on day and time of day. The search for a new location will start and hopefully will be identified for our August meeting. An additional item: Jeff Schiff proposed to have a 'Chip' event at his home to try some of the different touch-up kits available to repair paint chips. We will work on the best date to have this event. Saturday mornings at Bean and Bagel in Apex, NC is also becoming a popular gathering event. Last Saturday there were a few Porsches and around a dozen people. This is an informal event organized by Bob Kim for people on the western side of the area. Nothing formal, only to have breakfast and chat about Porsches and auto sports. Everyone is welcome to come (7:30AM to around 10AM). Triangle Area Upcoming Events: June 28-1-Day drive to Porsche Parade 2008 for the Concourse. July 26 - Club Ferdinand at Crown Pointe. August 15, 16, 17 - Tail of the Dragon Run III July 2008 Page 13

14 RACING AND RAMBLING Rock Webb, Sun Fun Area Director Well not much racing and rambling last month for me. Most of the PCA races were too far away. There were lots of good events to watch on SPEED though, with F1, Indy car, LeMans and OLD NASCAR. I enjoy it all, especially the F1. With Hamilton taking out himself and Kimi at Montreal, the order has really changed. It should be interesting! It looks like most of the Carolina racers will be at VIR in August for the PCA race. Come up if you can. It s a great track to drive or spectate. Rock Upstate Area Report Jim Horner, Area Director Greetings from The Upstate! We had another great meeting this week, with 44 people in attendance at The Italian Market and Grill. The main part of the meeting featured a slide show prepared from highlights of the 700+ shots taken by our group on a photo scavenger hunt that was part of the PCUALALSOESD (Porsche Club Upstate Area Last Annual Late Spring Or Early Summer Drive). There was lots of creativity on display, and evidence of serious multi-tasking from some who didn t slow down A BIT to get their great shots on the fly. In this competitive group, you can t have an event without prizes, and this was no exception. The winners were: Mark Mulkey and Gail Galloway the only participants who got every shot on the list Gene Kendrick and his lovely daughter, Katie for most unusual Alex Galloway and Emily Bloxdorf for most creative Emil Klava and Margaret Klava who were the subject of a photo of the most people gathered for the longest time around a car The drive, coordinated by Andy Shoun, took us over 115 miles of scenic roads that wound through some of Upstate South Carolina and the North Carolina mountains most beautiful settings. The drive ended with a great BBQ picnic at the country home of Ken and Linda Padgett, where everyone from our 24 participating cars enjoyed a nice lunch and a gorgeous view of their green pastures and grazing horses. From the cool morning start from Protech, to the peak of Ceaser s Head enveloped in fog, to a sunny, breezy afternoon picnic, to the great company and beautiful cars, it was a perfect summer day! Scott Roberts joined us at the meeting to invite our group to attend a Porsche gathering at Crown Point in the Blue Ridge Mountains High Country Region near Boone, NC. Our region, along with the Hickory Chapter, is invited for a smaller event on July 26, and again on October 18 for their Leaf Change charity event to benefit Habitat for Humanity. Sounds like it could be fun, not that many of us NEED an excuse to head up to the beautiful mountain roads! We re in the final count-down to the region-wide party-of-the-summer at Gene and Paula Kendrick s home in Spartanburg on July 19. Their Hawaiian BBQ and Swim Party gets bigger and better every year, with an informal concours on the pool grounds and BBQ and DJ starting at 6:30 PM. It s a family-friendly event, so bring the kids and grandkids. And, as in years past, a GREAT time will be had by all. (For more information, see page 18.)
