Milwaukee PCA Drivers’ Education Event Q & A Aug. 12

Commonly asked participant questions Every year presents a common list of questions. Here are the questions and answers:

Do you have to drive a Porsche at the event? No. We like to have a mix of cars, even convertibles that have roll bars or pop-up protection.

Do you rent helmets at the event? Sorry, no we don’t. Can I have an instructor, even though I am in Group 2? For sure…just email us at Milwau-

[email protected] and let us know what you need. Can I share a car with another driver? Yes, but this does require a live discussion with us. Let

us know your phone number and we’ll call to outline the options and decide. Do I have to have my car tech’d? If you are in RG 1 and RG2, Yes. There is a cursory tech at the

track, where you will get a sticker that allows you on the track. Check out the tech form on Por-schePark.Org for more details. Look at the Resources tab: http://www.porschepark.org/resources/ or the DE page: http://www.porschepark.org/events/de.php

During the day, can I change run groups if appropri-ate? Yes, just connect with one of the event coordina-tors to discuss. Do you allow walk-ups on the day of the event? Yes, but only if the appropriate RG is not full and the walk-up has to be in RG 2 and 3 drivers (no Novices). If you are thinking you will do this, remember two things: Registration closes at 7:30 a.m, which is when the drivers’ meeting starts.

Day of registration fee is $375.

Online registration closed at midnight Aug. 1 on MotorsportReg.com. http://www.motorsportreg.com/events/pca-milwaukee-de-2016-road-america-713346#.V2lPQKKpTsr.

If you missed this deadline, you must sign up at the track on the day of the event. Remember to be there early — well in advance of the 7:30 a.m. close of on-site registration.

Should you have any questions please email the DE committee: [email protected].

Welcome, new members August 2016 Steinlifters Page 4

Mike Padovano recently joined PCA. He drives a 2000 Special Edi-tion Millennium 911. Number 439 of 911 built, “the exterior color like all Millennium's is Violet Chro-maflair. The interior is natural brown leather,” said Mike.

He has owned the car since 2013. “At first I set out to purchase a coupe with an automatic. I was looking for about three months. I had just extended my search out of state. After driving a cabriolet with a stick, I decided that's what I wanted. After attending Bastille days we stopped at Concours on Silver Spring. “They had just taken in trade my 911 a couple hours earlier. When an affordable 911 comes across your path you can't be picky of color, transmission or body style. Make sure it's in good condition and buy it. I drove it and made the deal,” Mike said.

“I've always been attracted to the styling of a Porsche. I never dreamt I'd own a 911. I saw a movie many years ago with a 356 roadster, from then on I fantasized of owning one or a 911.” Rod Winter drives a 2007 Cay-man base. “It is black inside and out. I purchased it used from Con-cours Motors in Glendale in March of 2015,” Rod report. “ It had 32K miles on it and I have added about 1200 since. I am the third owner. It is a six-speed manual,” he said. How did he find it? “I found the car while cas-ually brows-ing on Auto-trader. After several weeks of ogling, I stopped in to see it in per-son. I found the condition to be very excellent, which is important to me. This is my first Porsche, and we are enjoying it very much. “I am very impressed with the en-gineering, workmanship and per-formance. We took it to Road America for Classic Car weekend.

It was a great weekend, and we'll get back there again hope-fully soon.” Editor’s note: Concours Motors is now Umansky Motors. Greg and Shari Riehle joined PCA and the Milwaukee Region with their 2014 Cayenne. It is black over black and they've owned it since April 2016. They are the second owners. "We

found it locally, but we were looking for many months," said Greg. "In the late '80s, we owned a white 924. Although we sold it, we always wanted to get another Porsche. And we finally did," he said.

Ideas, input needed for our 2017 calendar of events.

2005 Snell-rated helmets acceptable By Terry Royals For those of you familiar with SNELL ratings, you recall that we (this is tied to PCA’s Club Racing require-ment) follow a particular guide-line where the helmets are "dated" within 10 years of the up-coming season. This season we will continue to accept the 2005 rated due to the delay in new 2015 models.

The 2015 helmets are currently in short supply and in working to stay consistent with club race rules, we will accept your 2005 version for the Milwaukee Region Aug. 12 driver education event as well as the Milwaukee Region Sept. 11 auto-cross. Learn more about helmet requirements on the region website.

Our Social Committee has been without a chairperson for the past year or so, but our calendar continues to fill with great event as members step up and volunteer their time to create events you enjoy. Terry Royals will host a meeting of any-one interested in being on our Social Committee. During this time he will discuss upcoming events, collect ideas on new activities, collect feedback on the quarterly mailer and help to begin a more formalized so-cial committee. If you are interested in participating (the more the better) or just seeing what’s coming up next, drop Terry a note ([email protected]).

Social Committee meeting Aug. 6 -- all invited The meeting will be held on Aug. 6, at 2 p.m. Location to be an-nounced by mid-July as he will pick a central location based on who’s coming. Note, this isn’t a long-term commit-ment. The committee will meet occa-sionally to kick around ideas and at-tempt to lay out plans for a year. Get-ting started in August for 2017 is excel-lent planning strategy. If you like what we’ve been doing, come to the meeting and tell us. If you have other ideas for more drives to breakfast, lunch, picnics, pot-luck dinners, movie nights, or other ideas, let us know too.

Any committee seems to work better with a lot of input and ideas.

An invitation to join the Tour Committee By Al Wagner For a few years, the Tour Committee has been without a leader. Despite that, the region has been relatively successful in having an interesting slate of tours, ranging from short drive-to-breakfast (or lunch, or dinner) tours to long-weekend (3-day) tours on the club’s calendar. Just think what the region could do if someone actually headed up the tour committee! Since shortly after purchasing our first Porsche in 2006, my wife, Ellyn, and I volunteered to lead tours. We started by leading short breakfast drives. We have always operated on a very simple phi-losophy: “If we enjoy going to interest-ing places, events and/or restaurants, following Porsche-friendly roads, there’s a strong likelihood that other club mem-bers would enjoy that same type of out-ing.” More recently, we have been leading more complicated to organize long-weekend (3-day) tours along the Great River Road, as well as many other shorter tours. The tours have been pop-ularly acclaimed the by the participants. We must have been doing something right. Now, I have been requested to consider heading up the tour committee

and have agreed to do so, provided that I get some help from other region mem-bers. I’m happy to report that, as of now, Patrick and Linda Seroka, and Jim and Kay Schustedt have agreed to serve on the committee. Any committee seems to work better with a lot of input and ideas. That’s where you come in! Please consider join-ing the Tour Committee. The 2016 calen-dar is pretty full, at least through Sep-tember, but it’s never too early to start thinking about the last several weeks of the 2016 driving season, and beyond to 2017. If you join the committee, you don’t nec-essarily have to lead a tour at first, but you may want to, and we would be hap-py to mentor you, and provide all the help you will need to be successful. Even if you don’t lead a tour, you can provide ideas, and help by making arrangements for a visit to a certain venue. If you’re interested, please email Al Wag-ner ([email protected]) and make him aware of your interest. It’s just that simple.

The Peking to Paris Motor Challenge 2016 was held June 12 to July 17, with 107 crews crossing the start line at the Great Wall of China in Beijing. Organized by the Endur-ance Rally Association, the competitors jour-neyed through 11 coun-tries including Mongolia’s Gobi Desert, Russia and Belarus before entering Europe to reach the cen-ter of Paris. A total of 98 crews passed over the finish line after the 8,500-mile rally.

Tour Road America track (14-turn road course) in your car for free.

By Al Wagner Here’s an offer too good to pass up. We southeastern Wisconsinites are in-credibly lucky to have one of the prem-ier road racing circuits in the world practically in our back yard. Mario An-dretti claims that the 14-turn Road America racecourse is THE BEST circuit of its kind in the world. Who are we to dispute Mario’s take? Have you been thinking about signing up for DE, but don’t quite feel ready to take that step? Here is an opportunity to TOUR ROAD AMERICA (at legal highway speeds) at the end of our DE day on Friday, Aug. 12, 2016. From 5:30 p.m. to the track closure at 6 p.m., you can lap the track following behind PCA-Milwaukee Region instructor-driven pace cars. You’ll drive the “line” that racers take around the course. Furthermore, you can transport a pas-senger in your car. So if you have a spouse, significant other, friend, child, grandchild, etc., who would like to ex-perience the track, they may. The only require-ments are:

1) the car driver be a member in good standing of PCA-MR, 2) the passenger be old/large enough to not require a child or booster seat, 3) any minor passengers must bring a PCA Minor Waiver signed by BOTH PARENTS, and 4) there will be ab-solutely no passing allowed. NO helmet is required for either driver or passenger. Signing up for this event is easy. Simply complete the registration form (here’s the link) and attach it to an email mes-sage to PCA-MR Tour Committee Chair Alan Wagner [[email protected]]. The firm deadline for registering for the track tour is Wednesday, Aug. 10, 2016. There will be NO late registrations, nor on-site registrations accepted for the track tour, so plan accordingly. Further details will be provided ONLY to regis-tered track tour participants. We are considering the possibility of breaking up the track tour into two 15-minute sessions, which would afford the possibility of switching passengers (or even drivers) midway through the allot-ted half-hour tour time. Please indicate if this option would be preferred when you complete the registration form.

You can com-plete most of the workday, and still arrive in time to par-ticipate, but we hope you’ll come early enough to watch the cars

Where do you keep the postcard the region sends with dates of upcoming events?

By Terry Royals Hello fellow PCA members. We hope you are having an enjoyable summer and getting in some good windshield time. This note is coming to you re-questing feedback on an awareness campaign we launched at this year’s holiday party, where we mailed a post-card invitation hoping that we would have a greater level of participation. It worked, as we had more than 90 people attend our event at Mo’s. This success inspired us to continue with the reminder cards, sending them out quarterly. The feedback we have gotten has been positive. Some of the favorite comments include: 1. “Wow, this is a piece of real mail…Love that.” 2. “Can we go back to Mo’s next year?” 3.“I don’t go on-line much, so this helps me know what’s going on.” 4.“Hi, I just joined the club and want to learn more about your driving tours.” Staying connected is important and get-ting feedback from you will make the club more fun. Keeping that in mind, we want to continue doing all we can to keep you informed (Last postcard mailed 7/14).

This is where we need your help. The question we want you to answer is “where are you putting your card?” We aren’t looking for a long written answer, but really want a creative picture show-ing where you keep it. When you send the picture, feel free to include a short note on ideas you have regarding new events and/or methods to improve this sort of communication. But first, pull out your smartphone and snap a photo of where you are keeping your postcard, sending it to [email protected]. Include your name in your email as email addresses often don’t indi-cate the person’s full name. Terry will be collecting our collage of pictures and ar-range to have a drawing in 30 days. The first three pictures drawn from the sub-missions will get a nice surprise gift from the board. While there are no “style” points for creativity…if you have some-thing creative, it may show up in our na-tional magazine or website. Let’s keep growing our club activity par-ticipation as it’s always good to be in a crowd with a bunch of Porsche owners from the Milwaukee Region. Drive every day.

Show us your postcard — win a prize

The newsletter editor photographed the latest postcard at her desk, using the mousepad as the background. She is keeping her fingers crossed that she will win a prize for entering the drawing.

You are invited to join other PCA-Milwaukee Region members on Sunday, Aug. 14, for a drive to Botham Winery in Barneveld, Wis., to experience the Winery’s annual car show. We will depart from the west side of Milwaukee on a drive that will include a mix of freeway miles and Porsche-friendly backroads, with emphasis on the latter. Botham has held this event for many years, and features a differ-ent car marque each year. Porsche has been the featured marque, however, this year, the featured marque will be Lincoln. There, no doubt, will be some vintage sports cars on display, probably including a few vintage Porsches. Check out Botham’s website: www.bothamvineyards.com/vintage-celebration, for more de-tails. There will be no cost for this event, aside from the $10 per per-son admission fee charged by Bo-tham. Botham will have food for sale on site, including grilled burg-ers, bratwurst, etc. Obviously,

wine will be available for tasting and purchase. No carry-in alcohol is allowed, but carry-in food is al-lowed, if you prefer to bring your own. Botham will have bottled wa-ter and soda available for pur-chase. Registered participants will be pro-vided with the requisite tour de-tails, including meeting place and time. Registration is easy: simply send tour leader, Al Wagner, an email advising him that you plan to participate. Al’s email address is: [email protected]. The deadline for registering is midnight, Wednesday, Aug. 10, 2016. If you have questions, please send Al an email, or call his cell 262-416-8503.

Botham Winery Annual Car Show

Situated in the heart of Wiscon-sin’s Iowa County Uplands and surrounded by more than 900 acres of nature conservancy, Botham Vineyards & Winery has been growing and producing regionally distinctive Wisconsin wines of international acclaim since 1989.

Join other PCA – Milwaukee Region members on Saturday, Sept. 17 for a drive through the twisty, hilly backroads of the North Kettle Mo-raine to the Blind Horse Winery in Kohler, Wis. There, we’ll have a pri-vate tour of their production facili-ties, followed by lunch on their pa-tio. Upon arrival, our cars will be directed into an area of their park-ing lot reserved just for our Por-sches. The event provides not only an interesting drive but also the opportunity to visit a true "Napa Valley" style winery and enjoy lunch in a rustic, elegant setting. We will be led on a tour of Blind Horse’s wine production area by chief winemaker, Thomas Nye. We’ll get to sample from some of their barrels and each participant will receive a bottle of Blind Horse wine with a “PCA-Milwaukee Region-centric” label.

For those not familiar with Blind Horse, they make serious wines, worthy of some of the better wine-making regions of California. We think you’ll be impressed with their vintages. For those wanting to fur-ther sample their products, an ad-ditional tasting of any five of their wines is available for $6. Afterwards, we’ll have lunch on Blind Horse’s patio (weather per-mitting…otherwise, we’ll be served inside) and order from their full menu. For a preview of their lunch menu, check their website, http://www.theblindhorse.com/. Following lunch, feel free to linger on the patio (hopefully, in abun-dant sunshine!), and then return home on your own. There will be no organized return drive.

Blind Horse Winery Tour and lunch, Sept. 17 The cost of the tour (including one bottle of Blind Horse wine) will be $30 per participant. In addition, each participant (or couple) will be responsible for paying his or her (their) own lunch check. We must provide Blind Horse an exact count by noon, Saturday, Sept. 3, 2016. To register for the event, please print out the reservation form, and send it with a check of $30 per participant to the address shown on the form. The form and check must be received by the above-noted deadline. Details re-garding the starting place and time will be provided to registered participants the week prior to the event. If you have questions, con-tact information is provided on the reservation form.

Drive to Elkhart Lake Tour leader Tony Quebbemann reports that 36 attended the drive to Elkhart Lake on July 16 in 19 cars. They followed Tony on a short but complicated route “created by our own Treffen Master Al Wag-ner on streets without posted names. This was a challenge,” Tony said. Upon arriving at Elkhart Lake where a concours was being held on the town’s streets, “I was struck by the thought of walking right up to a wide variety cars - old and new, very expensive and mid-range priced in a crowd of people on a section of the old, historic Road America track,” Tony said. Before checking out the assembled cars, the group enjoyed dinner at Lake Street Cafe where service was outstanding especially given their stress of the weekend.
