BLACK MAY! I tell this story
at my own peril. Judy will
get mad at me all over again,
women will call me disgusting names,
and men will wonder how I ever lived
through it, never mind stay married. Oh
well, I tell this mainly for the benefit of
recently married men so they can benefit
from my evil ways. (I think we were married seven years
when Black May hit.)
May is a triple Judy month: birthday, Mother’s Day,
and our anniversary. My first mistake was forgetting
her birthday, bad enough all by itself. On Mother’s
Day I foolishly thought I could ignore the whole affair.
That was a very bad idea being that by then she was the
mother of our two kids. Even my mom was mad at me
now. The unthinkable then happened, yea, I forgot our
anniversary. I now know the terrible trouble I was in. I
begged forgiveness, vowed it would never happen again,
and pleaded for one more opportunity for redemption. It
was then I suggested we reserve the following Sunday for a
very special celebration of all the special days I had blown.
Judy, being the wonderful person she is, readily agreed. I
could still survive with our marriage intact. …………. You
guessed it. I forgot. Again. This all happened 36 years ago,
and we are still together. I have never again forgotten. I
don’t think she has either.
What an awesome Maverick month April is turning
out to be. We are now full steam ahead on our Hope
Project. The playground equipment is installed and it is
magnificent! Linda Bambina will tell you all about it. The
bluebonnet drive was a huge success, all the socials
are great, we are Auto Crossing and Time Trialing,
and as of this writing, the DE sponsored by Park
Place is nearly sold out.
May is just as busy. The Club Race and DE
sponsored by Boardwalk will be the perfect event to
cap off another busy month. All of you are welcome
to watch the exciting races on Memorial Day
weekend. Check the schedule and browse the event
ads in Slipstream for all the other activities we have
going. Man, we are one cool car club!
Huffaker Hughes Hope House. Linda has been the driving
force behind our backyard project, and it seems she can
almost be everywhere at once. She is the planner, fund
raiser, worker, and cheerleader. She’s a tough act to follow.
For being the Maverick of the Month, The Silver
Fox in Grapevine is giving Linda dinner for two at
their award winning steak house.
Linda thanks for all you do!

Richard Bradley, Managing Editor
Are you ready? There are a lot
of activities again this month
as well as some on the not
too distant horizon. There’s something for
everyone so please come out and enjoy
PCA.
With the help of a dedicated few, the
Huffaker Hughes Hope House has a new
playground and for those who still have a desire to contribute
time, money, or both, check out the ad on page nine. With
your help on Phase 3, we can reach or maybe even exceed our
goal of providing a parklike environment providing a safe
playground for the children and mothers who are victims of
domestic violence.
Then on another front, technology is changing at the
speed of Porsche! Porsche
reveals its High-Performance
918 Spyder Concept with its
highly efficient and ultra-fast
plug-in hybrid super sports car
unveiled in Geneva. If any one of
you takes delivery, you will have to take me for the ride of my
life, and I promise to put you and your car on the cover.

Maverick Minutes
Lisa Steele, Secretary
This month’s board meeting began
with much gratitude for
ALL of the fabulous work Linda
Bambina has taken on with the current
HOPE project of creating a kid friendly
backyard. Linda reported that Phase 1 of
the project is now complete. Claps around
the room for everything Linda has done to
get the ball rolling with this project! A legal question did
come up about this project so Mike will investigate outside
counsel.
Mr. Pres also shared some ideas about how we are going
to recognize our donators of the HOPE project. Christy
Payne chimed in with her designs. The Millennium Club
members will receive a beautiful plaque and the Century
Club members will receive a lovely framed certificate. We
already have 5 members of the Millennium Club, so those
plaques will be ordered shortly. There is also a raffle that
anyone can participate in by purchasing tickets at all events
and on the website. The cost is $25 per ticket or 5 for $100.
The drawing will be held on June 24th. See the Hope raffle
ad on the next page (unfortunately, this Secretary does not
know what the drawing is for, so please stay tuned and I
8
will get that information…you know it will be something
GOOD!)
Jim Falgout was present long enough to write a few
checks and announce that “we have money.” Due to this
being tax season, we were very fortunate to get Jim away
for this short time. Thanks Jim for ALL you do!
Clint Blackman announced that the last Sunday drive
had a good turn out with 41 cars. Clint also unveiled his
wonderful participation badge (sticker) that all Sunday
Drive participants will receive. Kevin Hardison was the designer
of these very cool collectible stickers. The next drive
is the Bluebonnet Drive…wouldn’t it be cool to have a picture
of Porsche smack dab in the middle of a field of bluebonnets
just like the little kids on the side of the road??? I
guess too many flowers would be damaged.
Bob Lewis reported that the last Happy Hour at Uncle
Julio’s was a success with many people staying to eat dinner.
The next HH will be at the Bavarian Grill in Plano on
April 15th.
Jan Mayo reported that five of our advertisers still need
to pay for their advertising space for this year.
Richard Bradley announced that Slipstream ran a little
late last month, but Ussery helped to catch us up.
Bryan Bell reported that he’s got nothin’.
Christy Payne said that she has created a way for all
calendar information to be steamlined. All Chairs send their
information to calendar@mavpca.org and this will go to the
website, Slipstream, and Robyn Howard. This should make
the communication for updating the calendar much much
easier. Cheers for Christy!!
Lisa Steele spoke for Andrea Bell about an email
she received about a local event. If anyone has a yellow
Porsche and would love to put it on display the night of the
new Twilight movie, please contact Lisa or Andrea for more
information. Lisa also reported that she is working on the
Club Race in May at ECR.
Wendy Shoffit is also working on Club Race stuff and
everything is movin’ and shakin’ with registration. Wendy
also gave a big THANKS to Lori Mauthe, Christy Payne,
and Lisa Steele for coming to the Girl Scouts Powder Puff
Derby. All of the girls had some awesome derbies and lots
of fun was had by all.
Robyn Howard is workin’ on the course for the next
Autocross.
Travis Howard shared that the last Time Trial/ Autocross
was wet and VERY cold brrrr….18 drivers showed
up and it was decided that everyone would get 2 sets of 3
which happens to be the minimum required to consider it an
official event. The AX was set up in the snow but it actually
turned out to be a sunny but COLD day of autocrossing.

Travis also reported that there is no longer a second set of
timing lights so he is looking at purchasing a new set. The
next TT/AX event is on April 17th & 18th at Mineral Wells.
Pat Friend announced that the new Goodie Store Website
is operating and off and running.
Ed Mullenix reported that the tech session at Autoscope
had 12 people who attended. Six people actually tested their
car on the dyno. Everyone enjoyed the day! The next tech
session will be a Do-It-Yourself- Tech Session on May 8th.
Carey Spreen announced that he entered his first SCCA
Rally to see how they run their events. This was a Map Rally
where Mapsco prints out maps for each entrant. Sounds
Fun!!
The last item on the agenda was to announce our Mav of
the Month. I think it is pretty obvious who should receive
this honor this month with all of the tremendous work she
has done…Linda Bambina YOU are the Mav of the Month!!
Meeting adjourned at 8:45

Future Maverick Fast Ladies?
by Lori Mauthe
Could be… On Saturday, April 3rd, Wendy Shoffit
supervised a Powder Puff Pinewood Derby event
for her daughter Jasmine’s Girl Scout Troop.
Nearly 50 hand made creatively decorated Pinewood Derby
cars were entered
by girls
in one of four
groups – Daisies,
Juniors,
Brownies and
A very fast family: James, Jasmine & Wendy Shoffit
Girl Scouts.
The track was
setup – a ramp
at one end and
checkered flag
with a net at
the other end, and the electronic timing equipment attached.
None other than our own Zone 5 Rep James Shoffit, was
in charge of timing and scoring. Wendy announced the
grid and the winners of each run. To be fair, each car got a
chance in each lane, and the fastest time determined class
placement.
So is it any surprise that Jasmine won a podium finish
in class? Dad James, made sure her car was ready, with an
alignment complete with corner weighting. Test runs made
sure that the wheels were turning free and clear. I’m sure
Wendy gave her go-fast tips as well.
Wendy asked fellow lady Maverick drivers to come to
the event and bring their Porsches to show the girls that autosports
isn’t just for boys anymore. Wendy, our Parade Fastest
Lady Driver, brought her Parade Trophy and plaque, displayed
on her Black 911. Christy Payne brought her street
car with her special car numbers and Fastest Lady insignia.
Lisa Steele had
her racy white
911 that she is
ready to take
Club Racing.
Lori Mauthe
brought her
gray Boxster
S with the Komen
Breast
Cancer pink
ribbon on the
Maverick Ladies: Wendy, Lori, Lisa and Christy
hood. Christy,

Lori and Lisa were the judges for the special awards
for the Most Realistic, Most Decorated, Most Natural,
Most Colorful and Most Creative design. And
wow, were those tough decisions, the cars were all
spectacular.
After the racing
was completed,
the girls came
out into the parking
lot with their
parents and took
turns sitting in the
Jasmine won with a podium
finish in Class!
Maverick cars.
They asked a lot of
questions and had
a wonderful morning.
It was thrilling to see how enthusiastic the young
girls were about the chance to race their Pinewood
Derby cars.
So I would look to see some of these girls behind
the wheel of their Porsches in the next decade, ready
to drive well and fast into the future.

ChuCk ColE,

PushInG ThE
PERFoRMAnCE
EnVEloPE.
My family currently owns three Porsches, and I’ve made several modifications
to my GT2: a DME re-flash and headers by FVD, intercoolers and wheels by
Champion Motorsports and exhaust components by GMG Racing just to name a
few. All of these modifications were done by Park Place, and together provide around
650 horsepower.The power in this car isn’t explainable until you ride in it.
My favorite upgrade is the exhaust; the sound is glorious. I go in the garage at
night and just start the car to listen to it run for a few minutes. My wife Valerie
thinks I am crazy.
I most enjoy Porsche’s racing heritage, and I’m amazed at their engineering
abilities. I believe in the tradition, longevity, and quality. What I appreciate most
about Park Place Porsche are the people. I’ve come to know many of the service
managers at the front, and also enjoy talking with the guys who work on the
vehicles in back – that’s not something you typically get to do at a dealership.
Everyone is knowledgeable about the brand, but more specifically about my cars.
They know me and always do a quality job. I have recommended Park Place
Porsche to many friends because they make it very easy and enjoyable to do
business with them.

Sunday Drives to Hillsboro
By Matt Lemons
It was a day of numbers, and I don’t just mean 914,
928, and 911. We had seventy-six participants,
forty one cars, two dogs, four counties, countless
smiles and waves, all on one Sunday Drive. It wasn’t until
I pulled around the far side of the Whataburger meeting
spot that I saw
all of the cars. Wow,
I thought, I didn’t
expect this many
people. This was my
first Social event as
a new PCA member.
What luck, my first
event, and I scored
one of the first ever
Maverick Region
PCA Sunday Drive
badges.
Springtime is here and this was the first Sunday
Drive of the year. Often times, driving is just about getting
from point A to B. Spending some time behind the
wheel like this brings to mind some of the finer points of
owning a performance automobile. For instance, all of
those safety related
items that often get
over looked. When
was the last time
you checked your oil
level, tire pressure,
lug nuts, or brake
lights? Maybe you
drive your Porsche
everyday and these
things get taken for
granted. Maybe you
only drive it on the
weekends
or in good
Let’s meet up and move out!
weather, and these things aren’t maintained as frequently.
A good Sunday drive is an opportunity to show your car a
little special attention. Sarah (my girlfriend) and I started
the day with a good wash for the car. Followed by a once
over of safety items. Then we grabbed the camera and
a couple of bottled
waters for the road
and we were off.
Driving around
town doesn’t offer
this kind of scenery,
trees, farm land, and
sweeping two lane
back roads. Heck,
even the cars around
you are worth looking
at. Sunday drives
aren’t about speed, but they are about enjoying good
company and your car. Maybe you pull the shift lever one
gear lower than you normally would through the next few
turns giving that P car engine a chance to breathe a little
deeper and sing that tone we all love so much. Right
about now is when you feel like your car is saying “thank
you” for the special attention. Daily
driver or not, these roads and the
people on them will make you appreciate
Porsche ownership way
more than red lights or I-635 ever
could. So whether you’re a new
member like me, or a long time
member that just hasn’t participated,
join the group for the next Sunday
Drive. It promises excellent flora
and BBQ. Oh, one last number for the day, seven. Seven
gallons of gas, you’ll appreciate them more than the seven
you burned going to work that’s for sure.

Cliff’s Ramblings
by Cliff Blackshear
I
cannot believe the activity in the
shop as spring blooms. It is as
if every kind of Porsche related
event that can be
dreamed up is
about to happen.
Even events that
are not Porsche car
driven end up being Porsche related.
Case in point. BMW club has a race
scheduled for MSR this weekend.
Last year they invited the Spec Box
guys to come join in. It is something
that was prudent for them to do as
their field of entrants was kinda small
and financially it was making the
event hard to put on. The addition of
the Spec Porsche people helped in
this area financially. I went and stood
at hot pit wall to see the action when
enduro occurred. Fun stuff. When
the green flag dropped and the first
lap was over I got a kick out of how
things sorted out. As cars came by on
lap 2, 3 monstor motor Bimmers go by, then all the spec
Boxsters, then all the rest of the BMW entrants (maybe 10
or more cars). Kind of a proud moment for a Porsche guy
like myself.
So the BMW event is tomorrow. Six Spec Box guys
have signed up. Our guy (John) is not entered. He is busy
getting ready for Heartland Park PCA Club Race scheduled
for 4-17. Many Mavs are headed to Heartland. Multiple cars
have suddenly appeared at the shop for some final set up
work. One that caught my eye is a very rare 993RS. Beautiful
factory prepared race car. I could not stop checking it out.
The roll cage work is pure art. What a fabulous example of
factory craftsmanship. Unbelievable. Took many pictures…
The sound of the engine is so awesome... moving on. Michael
Hsu brought his Spec Box up from Austin for the BMW race
at MSR. He has scheduling problems that are preventing him
from making Heartland. It was good to see Michael. Some
alignment and corner balancing work was applied for this
weekend. Multiple other race machines were in. I like this
time of year.
Clint Blackman came by and we had a great visit. He
was most excited about the Sunday drive for Mavs thru the
flower fields of Ennis (a Mav favorite Sunday drive). I was
telling him about our Saturday drive for new Porsche owners
and he ended up in deep discussion with Roger Reynolds
(one of our parts gurus) that is going and had just completed
a pre-drive of the run. I walk into parts and there they are
Spring Just Rocks
with a map on the counter and a computer screen showing
the drive route.
Had a call from our resident Flying Lizard. He is busy
with team members at Lizard shop
in Sonoma California getting Bergmeister
car ready for ALMS race at
Long Beach this coming weekend.
They were looking for the part number
for a sealer (putty like material)
that Porsche uses. I tracked down the
number, passed it along and threatened
him with horrible consequences
if they do not kick Ferraris’ hind
end. Ha! Corvette guys, BMW guys,
etc., can win the class but they better
not lose to Ferrari….. That’s important……………………
F1 racing is full on. Schuey has
migrated from Ferrari. The RB6 Red
Bull car is unbelievable. This series is
gonna be fun to watch.
Gotta love spring! Cliff

Too Many Porsches?
by Jerry DeFeo
While researching a few items for Trivia I
came across a guy that just might have “too
many Porsches!” He is the Sultan of Brunei.
I have found conflicting reports of both 120 and 160. Well
that certainly is more than I have, or Ed Mayo, or Jack Griffin,
or even Jerry Seinfeld.
I have been wondering if I wrote him a letter telling
him that I have really wanted a ‘73 RS but just cannot afford
one, if he would just send me one of his. Surely he must
have a few of them!!! Hey, at least I am not being greedy
asking for 959 or Carrera GT!!!
Here is a picture of a car that he
keeps in London that he had specially
built for him when he is in town. It is a
Factory-built Rolls Royce that is made
to resemble a Porsche. Now I certainly do not think it looks
as good as my ‘67 S Targa, but I sure know it costs more.
But then again when you have so much money that
you are making more at the rate of approximately $120 per
second, $7200 per minute, $432,000 per hour, or $10,368,000
per day; a one-off Rolls Royce built Porsche is “no big
deal!!!”

Member Spotlight: John Ver Vynck
by Andrea Bell
I
am pleased to introduce to you
another new Maverick member,
John Ver Vynck. John owns
a 1958 356 Speedster,
numbers matching, with
the original floor pans.
It is silver with red and
white piping. He loves the
simplicity of the car and the way it handles.
John also owns a 1997 993 Twin Turbo that is
silver and black. He believes these two cars
are the best produced by Porsche. He added
the only other one he would own is the 550
Spyder.
John has owned both cars for about eight
years. He has put about 4,500 miles on the
993 in the past five years. He has only tracked
the 993 once and loved it. He said, “I had the pleasure of
attending one of the Autobahn road courses at Cresson race
track. I urge all to attend.”
The Speedster has some race history, but he has been
unable to uncover exactly what it is.
He has lived in the DFW area for twenty years. He
married a native Texan and has three boys that love cars like
their dad. He said, “We spend time working on what we can,
and enjoying the rest.” He also enjoys working in the yard,
speaking, and attending group activities. We are pleased to
have John as a new member to our Maverick family.

Happy Hour at Uncle Julio’s
by Chris Christensen
So who is Uncle Julio anyway?
Actually we were told that
he is the figment or perhaps a
brainstorm of someone who maybe had
an Uncle who liked to cook Tex-Mex. We
can only say that it really doesn’t matter
all that much, it is a fun restaurant to visit
with our Porsche Club friends. Parking
was a small problem, which does indicate that the restaurant
is popular with the locals at this location just east of the
North Dallas Tollway
at the Keller Springs
intersection. It is easy to
find and not far from the
George Bush for those
who are coming from the
mid-cities area.
With five restaurant
locations to choose from
in the Metroplex, and
now with locations in four states, Uncle Julio’s is spreading
faster than hot sauce on a chip. And, by the way, their hot
sauce is a bit spicy for some, but the warm chips that seem
to keep coming are great. It makes another margarita or
beer seem a necessity with the usual cautions of course. In
short – along with the great Tex-Mex, the bright spacious
room with all its colors of reds, yellows and terra-cotta
make for a realistic south of the border restaurant.
So, who had a grandma who designed her big Sunday
meals around dessert? It seems that in some families this
was and maybe still is a custom. So with sopapillas (puffed
Mexican pastries sprinkled with cinnamon and powdered
sugar, served with warm honey for dipping and ice cream)
should we worry much about the main course? The cajeta’s
looked awfully good as well; vanilla ice cream with toasted
coconut and pecans topped with homemade caramel sauce
and whipped cream. Okay, let’s forget grandma’s main
course recipes and have a couple desserts, a margarita and
go home happy. Now that you have all of this info, I expect
all those who decided not to come out to HH will be there
next time...and don’t wait for the Uncle’s to get back on the
schedule – come anyway. By the way, about 30 Mavericks
enjoyed mingling with friends and staying for dinner…a
pretty good crowd.
Okay, so I had the opportunity to sit across from one of
our club racers and real Porsche enthusiasts, Mark Hanna
and his lovely wife Monda at dinner. Can I say that I am
a bit jealous when he showed me photos on how he stores
all of those Porsche assets he owns? I think I will have to
start by mentioning to my better half that although I would
like to rack and stack four Porsches that I will settle with
just two Porsches stacked in a single car garage. Now that I
revealed my strategy, I will have to work hard to promote the
idea. I had no idea how relatively simple and inexpensively
(relatively speaking of course) it is to modify a garage to
install a stacking system. We Porsche enthusiasts have to
have something to look forward to, right? Thanks Mark for
sharing your garage with a neophyte.
Recently a group of us signed up for this year’s Parade.
Boy, are we ready to go or what…signing up on
the first day of registration (March 9th). And
this year I have decided to drive our low mileage
Boxster to the event and even enter into the
Concours. I vaguely remember someone from the
group suggesting that everyone would pitch in to
get the car ready on arrival. I plan to bring plenty
of supplies for everyone…even rubber gloves…
to keep the car as clean as possible when we go
through the process. There are a few tricks to
readying a car, but all of it deals with hard work and attention
to detail. Even with all of the detail work, something always
24

gets overlooked. We will try hard and if not successful we
hope at least we’ll have fun.
Thanks to all for coming to this month’s happy hour and
before we forget, Linda Bambina and Clara Lewis wanted
all Mavericks to know that Hope
House will be installing the
children’s play ground known as
Phase 3. Please check with Linda
or Clara for all of the details.
Help in installing the grounds
is definitely welcome…as are
donations to help offset the costs.
This is, needless to say, a very
important project for the young
families who need a shelter. We
know that many of you will pitch
Come have some fun! in with help and much needed
financial assistance.
Next month’s happy hour will be held at Abuelo’s
Mexican Food, Thu, May 20, 6:30pm – 9:00pm. Where:
2520 S. Stemmons Freeway, Lewisville, (972) 315-6057.
See you at our next Happy Hour.

Arctic Weekend at The Mineral Ring
By Carey Spreen
March 19, the Friday before the first Time Trial/
Autocross weekend of 2010, had been the
warmest day of the year so far - sunny with
temperatures near 70 degrees. Which made it all
the more difficult to believe the weather reports
that forecast snow and sub-freezing wind-chill
factors in North Texas for the next two days.
However, the weather reports were right
- Saturday dawned wet and cold. Those who
trailer their cars to Time Trials and Autocrosses
kept their lightly-treaded sticky tires mounted,
but the rest of us who drive our cars to these
events had three choices:
(a) Drive out on street tires, bringing the
sticky tires with us to change on-site;
(b) Mount the sticky tires at home, and take
our chances driving to Mineral Wells on tires
that are street legal but not at all intended for
rainy or snowy winter conditions; or
(c) Forget about the sticky tires and just run on street
tires.
When I got there Saturday morning I saw all three
choices in evidence. I had selected choice (a), but upon
further review, the wind, rain, and cold convinced me that
changing tires would not be worth fighting the unrelenting
wind, at least not on Saturday, so I went with (c) instead.
Eighteen drivers showed up, a low number probably
caused by the Siberian turn the weather had taken. And
because the rain, even though it had ended by 9 am, was
supposed to turn to snow later in the day, the organizers early
on decided to
give everyone
their two sets
of three runs
and call it a
day. Good
choice, as it
turned out.
The
entrants
were divided
up into the
Ready to go
traditional
two run groups: workers went to their stations (1 per corner
due to the small attendance), and drivers got in their cars.
And as you might imagine, being in the car was the most
comfortable place we could be! As the morning proceeded,
the temperature continued to drop, but the wind remained
Photos by Kristi Kelley
constant, so by the time the second run group finished, we
all needed a good thawing.
We ran Time Trial Course 1 in its traditional clockwise
direction, with the tight left
turn after the start/finish
line. And even though
the rain had stopped
hours earlier, the damp
track and cold tires made
for some unpredictable
traction conditions, and
gave everyone plenty of
opportunities to practice
their skid-recovery skills,
especially at that tight left.
“Turn into the skid” is
the mantra we learned in
those high school driver
All smiles on the green light education classes, but what
is usually not mentioned
along with that is to straighten the wheel as you come out
of the skid, since, if you don’t straighten out, the car will
recover from the skid, but will
continue into a similar swing
in the opposite direction.
Which you then have to
steer into again, repeating as
necessary, until either the car
straightens out for good, or it
finally comes to rest pointing
in some direction contrary to
the one in which you would
prefer it be pointing.
This phenomenon
is sometimes known as
“getting a little behind in
your steering,” and all of us
have experienced it at some Who is that masked man?
point in our driving careers,
hence the cheers that this occurrence elicits from the other
competitors when it happens on course. Fortunately, the
Mineral Ring is a very safe place to do this, since there is
typically nothing to hit for hundreds of feet in any direction,
except for those uncomplaining traffic cones, who willingly
sacrifice life and limb for us on a regular basis.
Anyway, we finished timed runs at about 12:30 and
retired to Chili’s for a warm meal. Upon our return to the
airport, a few good men and women dismantled the Time
Trial course and set up the Autocross course for Sunday.
26

Mike Lockas did a few test
runs on the course, since
he would not be officially
competing on it the next
day, and was easily able
to hit 70 mph on the back
straightaway in his Audi A4.
Sounded like it was going to
be a fast course! I had left by
that time, but as course setup
was finishing, snow began
falling.
That evening, Ft Worth
also got a light dusting of
snow, but later I heard reports
of several inches of snow in
the eastern reaches of the
Metroplex. That probably accounted for the low turnout of
15 drivers on Sunday for the Autocross. However, in Mineral
Wells, there
was neither
snow nor rain
nor heat nor
gloom of night

of their
appointed laps.
(Apologies to
Anyway, Sunday’s Autocross course was much longer
than Saturday’s Time Trial course, in terms of time if not
distance. It consisted of a few sets of offset gates, a quick
slalom, a very long straightway (4th gear for most of us)
containing a small kink to prevent the
speeds from going even higher, and
another set of offset gates with a 180
thrown in. It took us each about a minute
and a half to drive around it, so the
jokes about not being able to finish the
morning course walk before nightfall
were not too much of an exaggeration.
So after 10 runs each, plus fun runs,
we called it a weekend. And once again,
we were reminded that, although the
MineralRing does not have much to offer
in the human comforts department, we
always get lots of fast runs and a safe
environment in which to make them. The April events there
will have taken place before you read this, but Autocross 3
will be held on Sunday, May 16 at Pennington Field (the
HEB ISD football stadium) in
Bedford. And if you would like to
try a Time Trial on a real racetrack,
mark your calendar for Sunday,
May 23, which will be Time Trial 3
at Motorsport Ranch in Cresson,
TX, and will run on the 1.7-mile
course. Hope to see you at one or
both!

Tech Corner
by Ed Mullenix
Deal or NO Deal?
The club racing season is ‘fixinta”
start so last week the Prez
brought his 944 Turbo club racer
into the shop for its annual gremlinectomy.
Sure enough, there were some gremlins
lurking about. A recalcitrant DME relay
that only turned on the fuel pump when
it felt like it. All of the ABS wheel speed
sensors had grown fur (iron dust abraded from the brake discs
attracted to the permanent magnet in the sensor) and caused the
ABS to do weird things. But new spark plugs, fuel filter, and
reciting the appropriate pre-season incantation didn’t resolve
an engine misfire.
The ignition o-scope
revealed that almost no spark
was reaching the spark plugs.
Mike said that he had the
cap and ignition rotor
replaced two seasons
Ill-fated rotor, new aftermarket ago. Usually a cap and
rotor, genuine Porsche rotor rotor are good for several
seasons. Hmmm? I pulled
off the cap and there it was, or rather, was not! The brass
end of the rotor and most or the plastic end was gone! At
racing speeds, the coil directs spark thru the rotor and cap
12,000 times every minute. A 30 minute race, the coil
fired 360,000 times. During a five race season, that rascal
has fired 1.8 million times. Needless to say, a lot of heat
is developed in the distributor cap and there is almost no
venting so things like the rotor get really hot.
OEM Porsche distributor caps and rotors are made
from a material called “Bakelite.” It is a thermo-setting
plastic that once baked in the mold of a cap or rotor, won’t
melt. Although it will burn if you get it hot enough. It
is the perfect material for distributor caps and rotors. A
drawback to Bakelite is that it is brittle. Drop a distributor
cap and it’s done! Bakelite is also more expensive to
produce than other plastics that can be melted and formed
into whatever.
This brings us back to our story. Several aftermarket
manufacturers, including Bosch, produce ignition caps
and rotors that are not Bakelite and therefore, are less
expensive. A bargain-brand non-Bakelite rotor was
installed in #47 with the ensuing consequences. The
misadventure didn’t result in a DNF but could have. You
could also have the same experience on a long highway
trip. Every year, my bride and I take one of our “Stuttgart”
wonders to Wisconsin, a “mere 19 hours in the saddle”
each way! I will buy aftermarket things like fan belts,
spark plugs, and air filters but I am selective about the
quality (don’t go to Manny, Moe, and Jack!). My ’82
Targa does indeed have a genuine Porsche rotor. “Nuff
said”! Ed
