The day started off in a layer of fog which looked great on
the grape vine covered hills of the vineyards, but made for a
nervous start to the drive that morning. With a warning about
the fog and local cyclists, drivers were sent on their way on a
scenic loop around Lewisville.
With the help of Monty King, Joey Vrsecky, David Barber,

Notes from the road
Season’s Wishes
Let’s face it. Christmas wish lists are mainly a
kid thing. Oh, I’m no Scrooge, so this isn’t a ‘Bah,
Humbug’ thing. It’s just that things work differently when you’re an adult.
When you’re a kid, it’s easy; composing a roster of stuff you absolutely need for Santa to bestow on you is a heady journey into fantasy land.
In keeping with Parkinson’s Law, the list grows
and grows to fill the page – preferably the legal
size kind – as you let your imagination soar. You
feel safe doing so because you know that Santa –
or his avatars (i.e. grownups) – will come through,
at least part way. So you figure if you make the list
long enough, you’ll come out ahead.
It gets complicated once you’re a grownup.
For one thing, we adults are not supposed to
believe in Santa. We also are not supposed to go
around handing out wish lists, at least not usually. After all, it’s not a wedding. Instead, we are on
the hook to instinctively come up with nice gifts
for our peers while our own hankerings hang on a
thin thread of hope that someone perceptive will
reciprocate in kind. And finding the right gifts is
no walk in the park. Ideas warmed over from last
year are not a socially acceptable option, especially where Significant Others are concerned.
What’s more, I find it hard to focus on even
these priorities because of certain distractions.
Some of those are tied to the season, thus pretty
much cast in concrete – you know, picking the
tree, stringing lights, making sure the fireplace
is ready to provide the proper holiday ambiance;
and never mind the weather, which as likely as
not will be sunny and mild. Other distractions are
self-inflicted. As the infamous ‘Shopping Days’
countdown ticks toward zero, I tend to take more
and ever longer breaks from my chores – to ward
off battle fatigue. Movies are good for that, mainly
2 TARHEEL CHAPTER FOOTNOTES
timeless treasures like ‘Le Mans’ and ‘Gumball
Rally’, but my old video record of a 12-Hour
Charge of the Headlights Brigade race at VIR fits
right in, too. And lest I forget, there’s my de rigeur
annual viewing of National Lampoon’s Christmas
Vacation, which I think comes a lot closer to real
life than some folks would admit.
Toss in a drink here and there, accompanied
by music of the season (my personal favorite
happens to be ‘Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer’), and the result is inevitable; my personal
wish list ends up on the backburner. Mind you,
I’m not whining; not really. I’m only being realistic. Besides, there’s an upside to the situation: I
can always decide to be my own Santa and take
care of the list myself. Which is what I usually
do at this point in the season; after all, who else
knows more about what arcane stuff my automotive projects may call for.
Invariably, however, a few items on my list
turn out to be clearly beyond my reach, thus requiring outside intervention. And this year it’s
no different. I am therefore suspending disbelief,
putting on my kid’s cap, and placing the following wishes on the record for Santa’s or his stunt
double’s consideration. Like I said earlier, if you
make the list long enough, some of it might stick,
so here goes.
For starters, I’d love to see more folks join me
in opting-in to remain on the mailing list for the
hard copy of our newsletter. It doesn’t bother me
a bit that, as of January, the digital issue of FOOTNOTES will be the ‘default’ version. It’s a sign of
the changing times. (Hey, even NEWSWEEK is
going all-digital.) In fact, I really appreciate being
able to access FOOTNOTES the moment it shows
up on the website. Just imagine reading about
upcoming events – before they take place! But I’d
http://www.tarheelbmwcca.org
also like to continue receiving the hard copy in my
mailbox every month – and I sure don’t want to
think I’m alone in this. It’s not that I’m sentimental about the little blue booklet – well, maybe a
tiny bit. And it’s not that I fear a world-wide EMP
event (or even a local one). It‘s the practicality of
reading matter that’s always at hand and doesn’t
require power (AC or DC); or scrolling; or special
light conditions. And as for printing out every issue, I’d find that a royal pain in the butt, not to
mention the paper it would require. So my fervent
wish is that all you paper copy fans step up and
cast your vote while the going’s good – i.e. before
the deadline announced by Bob Blood in October.
And do hurry; Bob will be putting the January issue to bed real soon.
Another wish that’s been on my mind for
some time now is: Bring Back Road Rallies. They
used to be pretty popular with folks in our chapter, but to take part in a rally nowadays, you’d
have to attend Oktoberfest or bring a show car to
The Vintage. I don’t know why they’ve fallen out of
favor, but I suspect it’s mainly lack of awareness of
The Editor’s Desk...
Hard to believe, but the last paper copy of
FootNotes is now in your hands - unless you have
emailed me your member number to opt-in for a
paper copy going forward.
To see what your current selection is, go to
your address at the back of this issue - if it says
“PAPER COPY” you will continue to receive your
newsletter via US Mail each month until you tell
me otherwise.
If it says “ONLINE ONLY” you will NOT receive a paper copy of FootNotes unless you opt-in
by providing me your member number.
You still have time before the mailing lists
are finalized for January, but do not wait - if you
want paper, email me NOW. The normal cut-off
for this sort of thing is one month before the issue month, but I will make these changes right
up to the point we go to print - which is generally
around the 15th of the month prior to the issue
month - for the first few months.
For those of you reading online, FootNotes
is generally up on our web site on the 1st of the

what rallies are all about. For those of you who’d
like to know, rallies are a kind of road tour with a
purpose. They are competitions, but at legal road
speeds and only in the sense that you compete
for a score. They all involve following directions,
but scoring depends on the type of rally. Some
may have you maintain average speeds for specified times and distances (TSD); others may only
require you to spot landmarks and answer written
questions en route (Observation Rally). What I
like about rallies is that they are a laid-back kind
of driving competition. They fill what I see as a
void between the high-adrenaline experience of a
driver school and the fun but utterly sedate stuff
like dealer open houses and monthly dinners. So
if there’s a Santa who is also a rally fan, let’s hear
it from you.
Speaking of the Vintage, it seems one of my
wishes has already come true. Perennial event
organizer Scott Sturdy tells us that next May’s
‘gathering of perfectly aged BMWs’ will return to
its birthplace, the Westbend Winery. What’s more,
this will be appropriately enough the event’s
tenth anniversary! And what a ten years it’s been;
having started as a smallish gathering of mostly
2002s, it is now a BMW CCA Regional Event
that draws close to 300 show cars and probably
around a thousand walk-in spectators, free of
charge. But that’s enough promotion; I wouldn’t
want to take the wind out of Scott’s sails.
Getting back to wish lists, I have a somewhat
pedestrian wish (sorry, lousy pun) that I suspect a
lot of you can relate to. I pray more runners – and
oh yeah, cyclists too – would observe the rules of
the road, and traffic lights, and stop signs, and all
that other regulatory stuff us four-wheel drivers
have to abide by. I respect their right to share the
road with me. I really do. And do I ever keep my
eyes peeled for them! But I’ve lost count of the
times I’ve had to pretend I was in the U.K., pull
over onto the wrong side of the road, to pass two
or even three cyclists laboring up an incline at 5
mph – side by side. Aren’t they supposed to ride
in tandem? Or the times a runner almost crashed
into my car or one next to me because he or she
ignored the green light that was on for me and
the other drivers. Sure, pedestrians typically have
the right of way – but not coming at a run out of
nowhere, wearing earphones no less! Give me
break! There’s a serious lack of common sense
here.
Okay, there’s room for one more wish. This
one is more personal, and it’s not for a pair of
front teeth; it’s for a ragtop. You see, my first car
was a convertible and I’ve been a fan of open-top
cars ever since. But this and that – mostly practical reasons – have kept me from even thinking
about getting one – that is, until now. Lately, I’ve
had a serious case of the gimmees for a ragtop,
and it all started at a cookout, at Paul Mele’s socalled toy shop way down in Chatham County.
Two of the cars at the party were Z3 roadsters;
one was of the M variety, the other a four-banger
of ’97 vintage, the last of the non-turbo 1.9 liter
kind. These days, it’s kind of an orphan, I suppose. But something about it said “Come hither”
to me. I’ve always been a sucker for orphans, stray
cats and such. Besides, I’ve learned to appreciate four-cylinder cars of late – that is, the fun
kind with some oomph to them, not to mention

the fuel mileage they deliver. So when the owner
sidled up to me and asked me to take it for a test
drive, it was a case of no-sooner-asked-than-done
for me. (The fact that he wanted me to listen for a
rattle was the perfect excuse to do some serious
test driving, if you know what I mean.)
Hoo Boy! So maybe a 3-liter Z4 offers more
high-end fun, in a muscular, cojones-to-the-wall
kind of way. But could this baby sing! As I blasted
down one two-lane and up another, top down,
trailing a swirl of dead leaves, the b-r-r-rap of the
Z’s exhaust brought back images of the MGs, and
Triumphs, and yes – 328s I lusted for as a wee
lad. The quarter hour I spent hauling ass in that
roadster was all too brief, but it reignited my lust.
And oh yeah – with all the wind noise the Z and I
generated, I didn’t hear any rattles, just the Song
of the Four.
So Santa, on second thought, you can put
rallies on the backburner for now and focus on a
Z3 1.9 liter soft top for me instead. Something in
royal blue would be nice.

CLUB RACING REPORT
BY PAUL HOECKE
Roebling Road Preview / 13 Hours Le VIR
Season’s Greetings, fellow club racing fans!
Actually, we probably should say “Season
End’s Greetings.” After all, the 2012 racing season
is just about over. As you read this, our homegrown track warriors are gearing up for Roebling
Road, their last race this season. In fact, some of
them are probably already there. And while we
don’t as yet have the final registration numbers,
we suspect they’ll be respectable, because racers from our chapter and others all over the East
Coast have been signing up for this event since
way back in October. It’s a testament to Roebling’s
popularity among BMW Club racers, although no
surprise considering it’s the time of year when the
weather outlook at tracks farther north is much
less kindly..
In all fairness to our western brethren, we
must note that, technically, the Roebling Road
race is not the very last event on the current Club
Racing (CR) calendar. Unlike some other years,
the truly final 2012 event is Houston Chapter’s
race at Texas World Speedway, set to take place
a week after Roebling Road. It looks like it’ll be a
biggie too, with three point-bearing races on the
schedule. But as we’ve remarked time and again,
where our local hot shoes are concerned, any
event that far west might as well be in Fiji. And
as we see it, it has no effect whatsoever on Roebling’s traditional role as our season finale.
For gear heads whose automotive interests
run beyond the here and now, there’s an added
reason to look forward to Roebling Road – i.e. the
6 TARHEEL CHAPTER FOOTNOTES
fact that Tarheel Chapter runs it jointly with the
Vintage Drivers Club of America (VDCA). As a result, there will be a lot of interesting machinery to
watch, on the track and in the paddock, perhaps
including some of the Skidmark Racing 2002s. No
doubt, those vintage run groups will also make for
a pretty crowded schedule, but our event’s main
man, David Bradyhouse, assures us that BMW
racers will have plenty of time to prep and practice for the weekend’s three races – two sprints
and a 60-minute enduro. However, rumors that
a Club Racing School will be associated with the
event were still unconfirmed at press time.
Of course, the race also holds special interest for the point chasers in our midst because it’s
their last chance to add to their total and thereby
bring them closer to a national or regional class
championship. Indeed, it could be just the ticket
for clinching a trophy for guys who are in a tight
contest in the standings. And what with the season winding down, there have been fewer and
fewer events where anyone from around here
could score points without going cross-country.
Leading up to Roebling Road, the only such
opportunity for Tarheel drivers since Oktoberfest
was the Savannah Harbor (aka Hutchinson Island)
event in late October. We were therefore not surprised that the only local hot shoes to show up
there were Roman Lifson (IP) and Dennis Pippy
(M3T). They ran with fourteen other racers in the
weekend’s three point-bearing sprint races and
did very well on what for them must have been an
http://www.tarheelbmwcca.org
unfamiliar track. Lifson chalked up one class victory and two second-place finishes, while Pippy
posted two class wins along with a second-place
finish. We could ramble on about the significance
of the fact that the duo chose to sit out the fourth
race, which happened to be the weekend’s only
‘fun’ event. But since we’ve already said plenty
about their respective championship chances in
previous reports, we’ll resist the urge to prognosticate any further. Instead, we’ll sit back and wait
until the fat lady has sung and class standings are
finalized. And folks, that probably won’t happen
until next month at the earliest.
Meanwhile, the season has also been winding
down for the two ‘local’ NASA regions, and insofar
as Tarheel driver participation goes, that appears
to have been doing likewise. The Mid-Atlantic Region’s annual ‘OktoberFast’ race at VIR saw only
three local hot shoes hit the track. They included
two perennial Spec E30 competitors, Dave Herrington and Carter Hunt, and a rare appearance
by Barry Battle in GTS2. As for the Southeast Region, it apparently didn’t run any races in October.
At last report, both regions had scheduled their
respective season finales in November – MidAtlantic at Summit Point and Southeast at CMP
– but those races took place after we filed this
report.
That said, however, we must dispel any impression that prior to Roebling Road our homegrown racing crowd was for the most part sitting
on its collective butts. It’s just that they were
flying below our radar. In fact, a lot of them were
taking advantage of several opportunities to burn
rubber in a big way that had popped up real close
to home – sans the pressure of chasing championship points. And that kind of matches the definition of unalloyed fun, doesn’t it?
One such event was the SCCA’s ‘Goblins Go’
weekend at VIR in October. It attracted the usual
mixture of lead feet from all over and by all accounts was a lot of fun, with a minimum of mayhem. (We didn’t make it to the race in person but
had several corner workers sub for us.) More to
our point, though, the field included several faces
familiar to us from past BMW CCA CR events, in-
cluding Carlton Midyette and Jack Wilkins. Now
we know where they’re likely to disappear to during the year!
And early last month brought what may
be the annual season highlight for a lot of club
racers of every affiliation – the SCCA’s 13-hour
‘Charge of the Headlight Brigade’ enduro, also
at VIR. For a good many years now, this race has
brought together pro and non-pro racers for a test
of stamina – the drivers’ as well as their rides’ –
with mainly bragging rights a-beckoning at the
finish line. It’s how it went down this year too,
and sure enough, a bunch of local hot shoes were
there, loaded for bear.
As luck would have it, two of those entries
came to the race with high hopes – justifiably so
– but ended up DNF due to mechanical problems
fairly early in the race. One of them was James
Clay’s BimmerWorld entry, the ’92 328 that actually belongs to crew chief Jason Marks. Famous
for having started out as a bullet-riddled ‘donor
car’, it had notched several overall victories at
this event in previous years. With Marks, Clay and
several other drivers spelling each other, the team
was looking for (possibly) another win – until
(we’re told) a cracked rotor put the car into the
tire wall.
The other team had been assembled by JMT
TrackCars’ main man James Posig and comprised
a handful of Team Semora drivers – Rich Abraham, Alan Davis, ‘Iron Mike’ Hinkley and Mark
Litzerman – with plenty of long race experience
to their credit, including a class win in last year’s
‘Charge’. As for the car, an ’87 325is, it promised
the kind of reliability we’ve learned to expect from
‘bullet-proof’ E30s. All in all, it looked like another class win was in the offing, but it was not to be.
At this point, we don’t know the details; only that
something broke and couldn’t be fixed.
Oh well. Like Mets fans used to say, just wait
‘til next year! Which also goes for this report, so
have a Jolly and a Happy in the meantime.
And Another One Hooked!
Four years ago, my son, Matt was considering
the purchase of a 2001 335i. I went with him to
test drive the car, and
we both loved it, so he
bought the car. While
waiting for him to work
thru the paperwork,
a 2004 525i caught
my eye (and I wasn’t
even in the market for
a car….) well…..I had
to sit in it, and then
Ihad to drive it, and
then I had to have it!
I bought the 525i the
same day from the
same dealer! We each
had our first BMW and became hooked.
8 TARHEEL CHAPTER FOOTNOTES
Fast forward to now…..I recently purchased
my 2nd BMW – and first that was new. I am the
proud owner of a 2012
hard top convertible
M3. It is truly the ultimate driving machine
for me! Matt, the photographer enthusiast,
went with me and my
other son, Michael, to
take some photos one
recent sunny afternoon.
I thought several of the
photos came out really well, so I wanted to
share them with you.

Tarheel BMW CCA Annual Banquet
And Business Meeting
The Tarheel BMW CCA Annual Banquet and Business Meeting will be held
during the February Driver’s School at VIR on Saturday Evening in the Gallery
Building. Registration will be on MotorsportReg.
Exact date and time and more details will appear in the January Footnotes.
We look forward to seeing many of you there.
Mom Hits The Track
I treated my mother to the October M school
put on by the Tarheel and DC chapters of the
BMW CCA. We had a blast driving the 1Ms, M3s
and M5s around the skid pad, autocross courses,
and in the rat race on the upper skid pad. After
the first rotation, mom said, breathlessly, “I knew
this would be fun, but not this fun!”
Dad, a real gearhead, came along to watch
and talk to the instructors. He and I did the
school together a couple years ago.
My day was pretty good too coming in second in our little group’s rat race and missing the
timed lap best time by .005 seconds! The performance center recently added an electronic timer,
so I know it was that close.
10 TARHEEL CHAPTER FOOTNOTES
The performance center instructors are top
notch. Many of them are current or former professional and semi-professional drivers and BMW
seems to give them the flexibility to continue
campaigning in various series including Formula
Drift. -Peter Zierz, Raleigh, NC

What...” to Footnotes via email at [email protected].
As I was taking in Paul Hoecke’s Autumnal
Reflections and his observations concerning
BMWs in films, a memory of mine was dredged up
from the mid-1970s, driving with a friend along an
autoroute (expressway) in northwestern France in
a rented Citroën DS19, a pleasant ride at 80 mph
(130 kmh), a bit over the limit.
It was late evening with very little traffic. I
noticed a pair of headlights far in back of me,
unbeknownst to me closing very fast. The two
headlights suddenly became a single beam, and
within seconds two gendarmes on big BMW motorcycles roared past me doing at least 110mph.
They certainly weren’t after me, crawling along at
80... They always travel in pairs.
In recent years I’ve seen photos of the gendarmerie’s big Yamaha FJR1300 and BMW RT1150
that can catch anything on two or four wheels.
The BMW is still considered the classier ride.
Yes, Paul, the French cops riding BMWs in The
Day of the Jackal was a very authentic touch.

Germany who refused to allow it to be shown at the Hilton Head Concours D’elegance but allowed it to
be on display here. This race version was is the only one in the world, the previous was destroyed at the
