President's Message
Bill Walters
This issue of the May der Riesenbaum arrives a week later than usual, kind of on purpose. First, I
decided to wait until after the Pt. Reyes Breakfast Run to publish in order to have appropriate content to
read. Secondly, Kurt Fischer has worked his tail off helping manage the upcoming Marin Sonoma
Concours and Drive, David Bunch doing same with back-to-back autocrosses and VP Greg Maissen
sweeping the outskirts following media that will exhibit the graces of our Club. These three guys are
instrumental to what you see published before you. I appreciate the emails I receive acknowledging the
work "I" have done, but without them I would be floundering. It is still welcome, I enjoy it, but there is
nothing like the support of fellow members. Please don't forget them in your Thank-Yous.
Speaking of fellow members, YOU have made the first events of the year most memorable. Not record
breaking in attendance, but record breaking in terms of showing compassion, fun and friendship. There
has always been a little bit of wonder when a couple may not make it out for months at a time and you
hope they are all right. I have to tell you, at the Pt. Reyes Run, I had most of that wonder erased. As
you are probably getting tired of hearing by now, "You Are The Club!" It is not me, or my wife, or the
Board and their wives, but you that come out to make our outings special.
Lynn and I were discussing just that morning, thinking of the 20-odd couples (loosely used..) that were
up so early in the morning primping themselves just to join us. It's a lot of work for a Saturday morning
and you may not even get the chance to chat with friends you probably wanted to see. But it still works.
And like Bob Hall said, neither BMW nor Ferrari Clubs have anything on us.
So scroll on down and check out articles on our April and May autocrosses, Breakfast Run and much
more.
Keep it up folks. See you out there!

OK... it's crunch time for Marin -Sonoma Concours! This Saturday, May 15th I'll be leading 87
Porsches
on the Porsche Drive part of the Concours off on a great 2 hour spirited drive to the Rockin H Ranch
for our superb lunch. This is the largest gathering of Porsches in the Redwood Region since our
"Escape to the Wine Country" back in 2005!
Sunday, May 16th is the actual Concours at the Marin County Civic Center where we will have 187 cars
on the field along with 8 wooden boats in the Lagoon. There will be food, wine sampling, 60 exhibitor
booths and the Redwood Region Goodie store.
We have about 60 Porsches in the special "Porsche" only corral area near the Field. Too late for any
more Porsches to be added to the corral area...you were given plenty of warning! If you want to come,
please come by the corral or look for all the Redwood Region people scattered around the Field!
All the information is here on the Marin -Sonoma Concours website!
http://www.marinsonomaconcours.org/index.html
Hope to see a number of you at the Concours!
I'll return to my normal Porsche tid bits next month! Again...THANKS for all your support for the
Drive...
the car corral...the Porsche Judges. I think the Redwood Region has made it's mark on the Marin Sonoma Concours
committee as I was greeted with many thanks for our participation this year!
If you have any questions, please let me know. You can reach me at: Kurt Fischer Truk50@ix.netcom.com

Zone 7 Autocross - Sonoma Co. Airport - April 17-18th
Bill Walters & David Bunch
Lisa Thomas has the confidence.
Ron Breeze Photography.
Our first Zone 7 Autocross brought out 44 drivers and 41 cars on Saturday ready to duke it out for
wines provided by our own Pierre Ehret. This was to be our first autocross on the freshly repaired and
sealed pavement that met with marked approval on a cool, mild day in the high 60's.
The morning began brightly with an array of gondola balloons, colorful Porsches and Gary Bayless'
Flatbed Ford Woodie festooned with the Spirit of Ecstasy radiator mascot complete with a surfboard
bonnet and a collection of period motor head stickers pasted over the quarter windows.
GGR boasted notables Past Zone Rep Larry Sharp, Terry Zaccone, short course expert (see his article in
the April issue of Pano.), Zone 7 Rep Sharon Neidel, Joe Lee, GGR AX Co-Chair and Zone 7 AX Chair
Larry Adams in his new GT -3. In addition, Redwood Region assembled past presidents David Bunch, Kurt
Fischer & James Heisey. Henry Watts of Loma Prieta region who authored Secrets of Solo Racing also
made a showing before fuel pump problems shortened his day. SVR's Autocross Director Bob Peake &
Lisa Thomas returned to defend their TTOD's from last year's Zone AX. We even had Craig & Mary Lou
Kugler from Sierra Nevada region make the trip.

David had us sign up with Mac & Becky Cranford and Alycia Strobel into three groups; white, yellow or
blue. We would make six runs apiece in the morning. Linda Adams took lunch orders for sandwiches and
soft drinks from Kals Kaffee that David had pre-arranged. He and Sharon also brought items out from
the Goodie Store!
Sharon Neidel created a fast course for our runs beginning with a chicane stretching from the start all
the way back to station 4 at the rear of the course then around and through the go-cart and final
chicane to the timer. Average lap times would be around 47 seconds. DNF's were rare.
Following the morning runs, we settled for lunch at 12:45 and resumed the afternoon runs at 1:30pm.
Larry Sharp driving his 1993 RS America came up with TTOD on one of his final runs turning in a 43.830
just .355 faster than Jim Winston in his 1971 Datsun 240Z. GGR and RR were pretty much even through
the top 20 positions. Fastest lady was SVR's Lisa Thomas in her 1990 964 C4 turning in a 46.676.

After Larry did his best run, he convinced Ted French to let him make a "fun run" in Ted's 2 liter 1966
912 and unfortunately Larry made a slight error and ended up putting Ted's 912 out into the mud where
he got stuck!!! David in his Porsche Support vehicle had to pull Larry out.
In the middle of the pack, Tom Strobel, David Bunch, Vern Thomas, Mac Cranford and Greg Maissen all
from Redwood, were all within ¾ of a second from each other.
After a fun filled day with 12 runs, many of the attendees met at Kals for dinner on their covered patio
area. The "Top Time of Day" winners were given their bottles of Knights Valley Cabernet from Pierre's
Ehret Winery which Pierre had signed. Raffle tickets were sold for door prizes with the $73 in proceeds
going to CASA, Redwood's charity. Door prizes included a bottle of Pierre's wine, a bottle of wine
donated by Deven & Dana Wailes from Hi-Tec Automotive and a couple of hats from the Redwood Region
Goodie Store.

Sunday morning saw many different faces coming though the gate to autocross on day two of the Zone
7 autocross.
David planned Sunday's course running the reverse of Saturday's with a long offset slalom taking the
drivers all the way to the far end, then into the "Jellybean" section, then back toward the finish thru a
series of gates and a box chicane before the finish.
The morning session gave everyone 5 runs on this course and after lunch everyone had 5 more trys to
get their times lower. Sunday's mens TTOD belonged to Andrew Blyholder of GGR in his 1971 914 with a
time of 46.397, almost two full seconds faster than GGR's Chris Hamilton also driving Andrew's 914. Lisa Thomas again took ladies TTOD with a 51.129 with Zone 7 Rep Sharon Neidel a close second with a
51.366. Average time for this course was around 53 seconds.
Thanks to all the people who came early to help with setup, registration and tech, and those who
stayed until the end to tear-down and put everything away. Events like these could not happen without
everyone pitching in.

E ach month this year will bring a new pic. relating to major accomplishments or milestones for
Porsche. May celebrates a 1st Place win for Porsche at the famed Nurburgring on May 31st 1970.
The World Championship of Makes was Porsches for the taking in 1970. Following the birth of the
917 in 1969 and perfecting of the car in the off -season, Porsche also put its reliable 908/02 on a
diet creating the 908/03 for that year. Porsche did win the Makes Championship outright winning
9 of the 10 scheduled races, Sebring being the lone loss. Mario Andretti's Ferrari 512S overtook
Steve McQueen's 908-02 on the last lap and won by 27 seconds, spoiling a perfect record.
The 908-03 was a machine solely conceived to win the short, twisty road courses of the Targa Florio
and the Nurburgring. The 917s would master the faster, broader, long distance races. The 908/03's
won both races as expected as well as second place finishes. Our May 31st race at Nurburg was won
by Vic Elford and Kurt Ahrens; Hans Herrmann and Richard Attwood took second place separated
by only 5 seconds.
The 908/03 advanced the 908/02 by lighter engineering and greater balance design, hence better
handling. An aluminum alloy space frame lost weight yet maintained a greater rigidity, The 8-cylinder
engine mated with a five speed gearbox amidships with the final drive and gearbox at the rear,
transferred weight to the center of the car for stability. This moved the driver position practically
between the front wheels with foot controls at the very front of the car body.
The 3 litre flat -8 twin spark engine could produce 360 HP at 8400 RPM . At a weight of less than
1400 lbs, this made for an incredible power to weight ratio and for one fierce track competitor.
Thirteen 908/03s were manufactured and as of yet, all are accounted for. If not for the more
publicized wins of the 917 in the other 7 races that year, especiallyLeMans, the 908 was a bit
overshadowed in its successes. Despite this "big brother" syndrome, the 908/03 was a more
complete package and easier to drive.

Breakfast Run to Pt. Reyes Station House. May 8th.
Bill Walters
Half-way point photo-op stop. Ron Breeze Photography.
It sure was a pretty day, perhaps on the nippy side, but you couldn't complain. Saturday, May 8
th
turned out to be one of our best weather days and 38 of you figured that out early to come join us for
one of our favorite runs, to Pt. Reyes Station.
Arriving early in the parking lot of the Chevy's at the Vintage Oaks Shopping Center, we met many
friends anticipating a warm breakfast. Following our 9:30 drivers meeting, Bob Hall who planned our run
and reservations, led us out Marin Drive to Pt. Reyes Petaluma Road and northward on Hicks Valley
Road, a Porsche favorite.
I have been back on these roads in various models of Porsches for 10 years now and this drive was one
of the clearest, sharpest drives I've seen. If you like the contrasts of the various trees from firs, cypress,
oaks and Manzanita's against each other flavored over the grasses of the hills, it was spectacular.
Canvas that with the baby blue of the sky with a smattering of cotton ball clouds and you had a day to
remind every mother of her newborn.
There are some stretches of Hiwy 1 just north of Pt. Reyes where you can pick up some vistas and you
can see the Porsches far ahead picking up glimmers of sunshine on their colorful paintjobs winding
through the hills beyond. It really is quite a sight and a reward for taking up the rear position as
"sweeper".
The Station House Café somehow managed to seat us all comfortably into one room and serve us in good
order. The wonderful aroma of hearty breakfasts always seems to welcome the chatter of you folks.
So. I'm going to keep it brief here, but I continue to enjoy the personalities and camaraderie displayed
within our outings and the friendship you all bring. It's good to see you out enjoying our Club and I hope
to continue seeing you; tell a friend!
See you for the Dillon Run, June 12th!
