Larry Hansen Wins The SCCA President’s Cup
The President’s Cup was donated to SCCA by the president of the Coca-Cola company in
1954. The very first presentation was made by President Eisenhower to Bill Spear.
The award is given to the driver who, in the opinion of the SOM and Chief Steward, shows
ability, competitiveness, and success at the National Championship event.
Previous winners include Roger Penske, Jim Hall, Skip Barber, Jerry Hansen, Bobby Rahal, Paul
Newman, and Jimmy Vasser. The President’s Cup is the highest award that SCCA can bestow
on a driver.
Larry Hansen is the first Oregon Region member to win this award.
Juicy Gossip
Longtime regional racer Phil Blackstone (who graced the cover of the October issue - sort of) had a bit of an “oops” in the
PCA race at the U.S. Sports Car Invitational on October 6 at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca.
Phil said this about the incident:
“Howdy...thanks for your concern. No, it’s not terminal, but we will miss the Sears race at the end of the month. I’m fine
and the car is now a winter project for Rothsport, inc. A broken left rear axle at “MACH 1” at the exit of turn 9 does some
damage when you do that sudden stop. “
We all wish Phil the best of luck in getting the car put back together, and we’re glad the only damage was to the car!

O
ver there across the page is a
spreadsheet of all the Loud Pedals
ever issued by Oregon Region. The ones
that have a month listed in the box are the
ones where we have a copy of that issue
in the region’s historical archive. (That
would be a bunch of boxes at Jim and
Pattiy Norlin’s house. )
are fabulous and you may be able to identify
some of the people in them.
Jim and Patty have also done a great job of
scanning items for this magazine. I already
have enough historic stuff to put something
in each issue for the next couple of years!
Speaking of which, with the last batch of stuff
Patty sent me, I became truly impressed
with what a talented and versatile artist we
have in Bob Mead. Many of you know him as
the pleasant steward you encounter at Black
Flag or the end-of-day social, but I’m here to
tell you, this man is a world-class artist. I’ll
prove it to you over the next few months.
“Disk space is cheap.
There’s a legend at the bottom showing
which issues are known to exist back at
Denver (soon to be Topeka- I hope they
don’t lose them in the move!) And there’s
a notation for the years in which we have
copies of all the Loud Pedals.
As you can see, we’re missing a bunch of our region’s
history. I’ve already put in a request to at least get
copies of the ones they have, but that still leaves large
gaps.
Our history is priceless.”
So for that, I need to turn to you, the members of
Oregon Region. Specifically, the long-time members of
the region who might have a box of old Loud Pedals
sitting around somewhere.
You don’t have to donate them to the region to be part
of this campaign to get the region’s history archived! If
we can just borrow your copies of old Loud Pedals, we
can scan them and keep them in digital form (probably
downloadable from the region website) for the benefit
of our membership now and in the future - and you
can keep the hardcopy, if you want it.
So, if I can persuade you to dig through your attics,
bookshelves, filing cabinets, or wherever for old
Loud Pedals, please take a look and if you can help
us fill these gaps, you’ll be doing a great service for
the region and your fellow club members today and
for years to come. As a general rule, the older the
stuff, the more we need it. This is not limited to Loud
Pedals, by the way, but also includes programs from
the Rose Cup races or any other events, photographs
of region events, old letters and insignia, trophies, dash
plaques, supplemental regulations, banquet programs,
and just generally whatever you find that might be of
interest.
Disk space is cheap. Our history is priceless.
The point is to get the region’s history recorded in
a format that is not subject to deterioration, easily
copied, and not easily lost. Jim and Patty have done
a great job of organizing all this stuff, and you can
see it on display at most Oregon Region Club Racing
events. Stop in there and look, because the photos

Discussion followed regarding
the Office Administrators
compensation. Holly and Greg
will work on a performance review
with Karen.
Jeff expressed concern about
technical support for the office
computers. We need an IT team
with technical skills and the
time to get into the office. Now
that Jeff is employed full time,
he isn’t able to get tot the
office during the day. Karen
will provide Jeff with a key to
the office so that he can get in
after hours. There are several
other Oregon Region embers
with the necessary skills that
might be willing to assist with
technical problems.
TREASURER’S REPORT – The PRFA
believes that we still owe them
money. Holly will talk to Gary
when he gets back into town..

NEW EDITOR NOTES Jeff is working with Community
News on templates and formats.

at Community News have been
tremendously helpful, and
deserve a huge thank you! Jeff
has contacted Patty Norlin
for historical materials for
a monthly feature. Jill, Mrs.
Z.) has called all of the
paid advertisers regarding the

will work on ad rates for the
web site. Discussion followed
LOUD PEDAL
regarding coordination between the
Region’s web site and the Solo II
and Rally web sites
The deadline for the LP submissions
is still the 15th of the month,
however it will be extended in
September until after our last
event. The September issue is
the last in which results will be
published.
They will be available on the web
site, or from the Regional office
upon request. Jeff has already
received many contributions from
our members.
RACE OPS – No report
DIRECTORS REPORTS:
SOLO II – The Solo II trophy
banquet is scheduled for the same
date as the Road Racing Banquet.
It will be at the Homestead Inn
at the Arrowhead Country Club in
Molalla. We have nine competitors
attending the National RunOffs, including Chuck Jarvie. We
have two events scheduled during
September. Solo is actively
looking for new sites in case they
are unable to use the Pro Pits at
PIR next season. They have some
promising leads.
Discussion followed concerning the
possibility of combining the Solo
II and Road Racing banquets into
one event next year. There was
general agreement that it was a
good idea if we can locate a venue
where the awards portion of the
banquet could be held in separate
rooms.
RALLY – Kevin Poirer did a test
run on the Wilsonville to Port
Orford course, and reports that the
roads are fabulous. The event is
scheduled for October 12 and 13,
with an overnight stay in
Port Orford. Registration opens
Monday, September 9, and will be
limited to 25 entries. The Rally
Cross was held on 9/2 at a brand
new venue and went exceedingly
well. There are two events left
this season, September 27 and
October 26 (originally scheduled
for October 27) Ghouls Gambol is
the Friday of that weekend.
The Wild West Rally will be this
weekend at Shelton, WA. It is an
FIA sanctioned event. Many thanks
to Jerry Boone for the excellent
article in the Oregonian! The
Tarmac Zone Rally is scheduled for
the weekend of the All Club Party.
There will be three stages, each
consisting of one lap around PIR.
SCCA members will be admitted at
no charge, non- members will be
charged $5.00.
The permits have been signed for
the Mt. Hood Club Rally on October
19. They are looking at dates for
November 2002
the 2003 Oregon Trail Rally and it
looks like it may possibly be July
12th. Mark Wiggenton is hoping
the Oregon Trail Rally can start at
PIR.
DIRECTOR 1 – Cheryl contacted
the Chiefs of each of the worker
specialties and compiled a list of
approximately 75 workers who worked
at the events that are difficult
to staff. These are the people who
are always there when needed. The
Board drew the names of 30 workers,
who will be offered free tickets
to the Road Racing Banquet. It
was agreed that the names shall be
published in the LP. Back up names
were drawn in the event that any of
the winners are unable to attend.
DIRECTOR II – There is a single
candidate for each of the Board
positions except Road Racing
Director. Holly and Jeff have
talked to a number of people about
running for the position. Jeff
will continue to work on finding
candidates for the position of
Road Racing Director, as well as
additional candidates for the other

Running Off
At The Mouth By Jim Brassfield
It all started with an extremely generous
offer by Chris Billings to provide me with
airfare to the Runoffs. I of course accepted
his offer and was all set to fly to the
Runoffs, then I bought a new vehicle. This
would allow me to provide other workers
a ride to Ohio, so after talking this over
with Chris, I decided to drive to Ohio.
So, Bernice Stanley, Cathy and Gary Frasier,
and I left for Ohio on Sept. 11. Just our way
of celebrating Patriot’s Day. We arrived at
the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course on
Sunday, Sept. 15, after a great road trip with
good friends.
We were joined at Mid-Ohio by other
Oregon Region and Northwest Region
workers; Howard “Duck” Allen, Neil
Swanson, Skip and Judy Yocom, Peggy
Wilson, Mike Thiessen, and Rich Wixler.
Neil was given the B.F. Goodrich Worker
of the Year award for Sound Control at the
Thursday evening social. Good job, Neil,
you make us all proud and represent the
region very well.
Cathy, Gary, and I all got to work together
the seven days we were there, working a
new turn each day, all around the track.This
afforded us a great view of the track, albeit
in small segments.
food every night, especially Monday night’s
Richland County feast that they put on every
year, and all-in-all had a wonderful time.
Some thanks need to go out to a couple
of Oregon Region members, yet just saying
thank you is never enough.
Then, all of a sudden, the last checkered
flag of the weekend fell and it was over! In
keeping with a tradition started by Robert
Dratwa, we kept an accurate count of the
number of cars that actually took the green
flag. At this year’s Runoffs, that number was
629 in all classes. Pretty cool! Altogether
much too soon for our liking it was over, but
alas, we knew it would end all too soon.
Chris Billings, thank you so much for
helping to sponsor our trip to the Runoffs,
for without your help, the trip would not
have happened. That kind of an offer is a
rare thing, and I was more than grateful you
the offer to me, as there are many workers
who were equally deserving of such an offer.
Thank you very much, and I hope your next
trip there will yield much better results.
“We met some
wonderful people,
made some new
friends, saw some of
the best racing to be
seen anywhere”
Howard Allen, thank you for all of your
generosity in offering to any and all of us
that we could stay in your room and utilize
the facilities of the hotel at any time, and for
buying dinner for us all on Sunday evening.
Thanks, Howard.
We left Ohio on Monday, Sept. 23rd for the
drive home and talked non-stop across the
country about the week of racing we got to
be a part of!
We had a wonderful time at the Runoffs
this year and hope to be able to return to
the Olympics of amateur sports car racing
next year, hopefully with more folks from
this area. If you at all have the time off and
the means of getting there, or if you want to
help sponsor other workers’ trips to MidOhio, please do not hesitate to do so. It will
be time and money well-spent without a
doubt.
We cheered on all the drivers from our part
of the SCCA world with all the enthusiasm
ever seen at the Runoffs, (Especially Chris
Billings, whose race lasted only one lap),
and even one DSR driver (Mike Phillips)
whose car sported an ICSCC sticker and
happened to stop in our turn when his car
broke!
The weather was as close to perfect as
it could get all weekend long until Sunday
afternoon, when it got a bit cloudy and
windy, but fortunately for us all - workers,
drivers, and crew alike - it did not rain
during any of the races. We actually had
to put on sweatshirts(!) halfway through
the 22nd race of the weekend. It rained in
the evening on Thursday, and I mean RAIN!
There was a tornado watch on for that
area, and one touched down in Indianapolis
that evening, only a couple hundred miles
away. About as close as I ever want to be
to one.
We met some wonderful people, made
some new friends, saw some of the best
racing to be seen anywhere, got fed good

Things that make you go hmmm?
The SCCA Pro Solo car in the Baxters ad belonged to Joe Bovee. Joe works at the Baxter Auto Parts in
Vancouver and was asked to have his NYG Neon (a.k.a. Slimer) in the commercial. (We heard from his wife,
Rochelle.)
The picture of the awesome car with Ben Hockman was a Rolla Vollstedt Indy Car driven by Len Sutton.
The only non-road racing recipient of the Region‛s Most Inspirational Driver of the Year award who was at the
Tarmac Zone Rally was Paul Eklund. Paul was a national champion in Solo II and as a Co-Driver in Pro Rally the
year he won the Most Inspirational Driver award from Oregon Region.

The Duck Stops Here
The Duck Stops here
By: Howard Allen, Competition Manager
From the road: I started this in Gallup N.M.
and am finishing it in Shawnee OK. It’s all about
road trips, but more about that next month.
So, what if they ran the Run-Offs under a full
moon? Well, that’s just what happened this
year. A qualifying session that ended with all
of the T-2 cars impounded was just the start.
An American sedan race where the fourth
place finisher won, and another race where
Chris Billings did not complete one lap for the
second year in a row. But Dr. John Blizzard
survived to finish 21st. By Sunday morning I
think they were on action ninety-something
for the AS race. When SportsCar comes be
sure to turn to the Fastrack to “get the rest
of the story!”
Chris Tryon, as he has all year long, quietly
went about his job and by the time the flag fell
there he was in 6th place in S-2 after third and
fourth took themselves out on the last lap.
Scott Culbertson tossed everything but the
kitchen sink at the competition during the
GT-4 race, but under the full moon it just
wasn’t meant to be his day. He was a class act
as always. Jay and Leslie should be very proud
of this young man. The sound out in this race
goes to Lans Stout who also quietly went out
and took the NORPAC title in GT-4. In the
race he had fourth place locked-up until his
brakes went south and he visited China Beach
on the last lap. Props and sympathy go out to a
man who gets very, very much from his racing
bucks.
With a garage neighbor like P.L. Newman, you
knew Mark Jaremko would have a magic week.
He was up front as always in FF, but dropped
back to fourth place in a last lap incident. His
DSR race may have well been the best race of
the week! He was in the lead early on, then he
fell to 11th spot on a full course yellow restart
because he had NOT read the supplemental
regulations and didn’t know where the green
flag would fall. But in true super star fashion
he recovered to beat two-time champion Mike
Rupert. NOT bad for only his fourth race in
a DSR! So props go out to the NW region’s
Steve Zink, our member from Utah in T-1,
got best appearing car award from Eagle! His
race was good, with a 12th place finish. Lynne
Griffiths in SSB did not finish the race.
November 2002
Finally, after my sixth trip to the Run-Offs, I
could make the closing toast Sunday night. We
(all the hard core Oregon troops who did the
whole seven days) toasted those who passed
over in the last year. Like Bill Salamon who
is credited with inventing the flags we use,
Tracy Bird a former SCCA executive, Lucy
“ Does this region know
how to race or what?”
National Driver of the Year choice. This is
a good time to also give props to Mr. Lee
Stohr, who is nothing short of a Rembrandt of
racecar design.
Zanardi (by Bernice) and Robert Dratwa (by
Big Jim).Then we toasted Brian Redmond’s cat,
and finally, (after last September) we toasted
FREEDOM.
Sorry I missed your race in EP on Sunday, Ernie,
but I was in town tending to Lori and Roger
Eandi’s needs. A 16th place finish at that track is
a trophy in itself.
It is then, when it is all over, that it sinks in what
this week is about and how much work it is for
so many people (workers, racers, officials). It
really may be more than the Olympics of club
racing; it is more like the three rings of the
greatest show on club-racing earth.
It was a true pleasure and an honor to work
for Mr. Bill Bradshaw this year. He is one of
the class acts and first class gentlemen of this
or any club.
“Please, again I beg of you, if you are lucky
enough to get Speed Channel, let them
know how much you look forward to the
SCCA Runoffs every year. ”
Duane came, he saw, and he kicked butt,
enough said? He just makes it look so easy,
right Peggy? (Maybe it was that Wilson woman
on his crew<G>). So another GT-2 title comes
home to the Northwest. Ho-hum? Not quite.
Duane does it with style and class.
around the Ramada, with the mattresses on
the floor, and doing the laundry before we sat
in the hot tub and de-briefed at the end of
the day. It is great being there with friends to
share the adventure.
I’m sure I don’t have to tell you to tune into
SpeedTV for two hours every Saturday and
Sunday this November and December to see
all the action for yourself. Please, again I beg
of you, if you are lucky enough to get Speed
Channel let them know how much you look
forward the SCCA Runoffs every year.
A big part of the Run-Offs story is about the
road trip. Just ask the Frasiers, Bernice and Big
Jim Brassfield. Half of the fun is in the trip
getting there and back. Good times sitting
LOUD PEDAL
Another good thing about this trip was the
chance to meet the new gang that is going to
Topeka, and know that SCCA will continue to
be in good hands. A big tip-of-the-helmet goes
to Sue Roethel, not just for tuning in here for
a read, but for being the first lady of this club.
You will be missed!
So, here is the bottom line for Oregon Region
this year: Duane wins in GT-2, Scott starts on
the front row and finishes on the podium in
GT-4, Lee Stohr designs a front row car in FF
and wins in DSR, Neil Swanson is National
Worker of the Year in sound, and Larry
Hansen’s podium finish in GT-3 results in the
Presidents Cup. Does this region know how
to race or what?
And finally, a special tip-of-the-helmet goes
out to Roger Eandi. Get well soon. We need
the “Poobah” to get better.

Solo 2 Report
By: Chuck Jarvie, Solo 2 Director
It’s October and it is just now
sinking in that our season is over.
After all the sun is shining, it’s nice
and warm and we are getting ready
for a November banquet. Seems
like we should be running events
until the snow flies and/or it rains
cats and dogs. Truth is, some of
us are getting a little older and
we burn out a little sooner each
season and take longer to get
going for next season.
We finished up our last two events
in September at PIR with decent
attendance, i.e. 128 on Saturday
and 118 on Sunday. Both days
were dry, sunny and warm, with
the ‘All Club Party’ on Saturday
night. An excellent way to end the
season.
A number of class champions were
decided on this last weekend.
Being of not so sound mind and
not possessed by a photographic
memory, I can only tell you this is
the case by the screams of certain
competitors and their attempts at
football end zone celebrations.
Just a few highlights: In AS Chuck
Spittal won both days over Bob
Sagara. I suspect Chuck is driving
with just a tad more confidence
based on his performance at
Nationals in Topeka. Doug Barkee
continued to dominate BS in his
BMW M3 and Dick Lang swept
CS in his Miata. On Saturday, Gus
Hall and his daughter Nicole came
out in his ’73 914 for one of their
rare visits. Despite a slight (does
an adjusting nut falling off a rocker
Page
16
Solo 2 Report
arm qualify as slight?) mechanical
delay Nicole pipped dad by 0.031
seconds. Gus really needs to
compete more often to keep that
car in shape. HS drew nine entries
on Saturday and ten on Sundays
compared to sometimes only one
or two. They put on a good show
with the Mercedes C240 of Gary
Hays winning both days and Greg
Beuchler’s C230 coming in second.
Right behind those German things
was Larry Fenley’s ’89 Toyota
Pickup.
Hartman took mens, Sunday was
Tom Kotzian, and Heather Howe
took womens on both days.
On Saturday we had an accident
that resulted in a very damaged
car that went into the concrete pit
wall. The driver is OK, the car has
probably seen it’s last days. I think
that we, as the solo community, are
usually unwilling to talk (in print)
about these incidents and I don’t
think that is a healthy attitude.
“Unlike road racing where the track
always goes in the same place,
every time you run solo courses
are always different. ”
Now can you imagine the possibility
of having a bad day driving your
Mercedes and ending up behind
that pickup? The boys in Stuttgart
would not be happy.
In SM Tim Werner’s all conquering
(well, sort of) hot rod ’68 Plymouth
Valiant got edged out on Saturday
by Erik VanDyke’s Neon by a tenth
of a second. Tim recovered on
Sunday to win by two full seconds,
thereby showing that cubic inches
and horsepower can substitute
for superior handling. I admit I’m
assuming the superior handling
statement because I used to drive
a Valiant and cars have improved
since then (I think). In PAX I have
not looked at the point standings
to have any clue as to who was
leading but on Saturday Chris
LOUD PEDAL
Unlike road racing where the track
always goes in the same place
every time you run solo, courses
are always different.
On a race track we learn through
experience where the danger
areas are and, as drivers, can drive
accordingly. On a solo course we
only get to walk it once or twice
and only get three or four single lap
runs at it. In solo you don’t really
know the potential hazards until
you arrive at the scene, at speed,
with adrenalin pumping, and then it
can be too late to save yourself.
What I want to point out is that
we can become complacent and
ignore potential problems if we
don’t talk about incidents, hazards,
etc. and learn from them.
November 2002
Solo 2 Report - Continued
We have learned from experience,
and this incident reinforces, that
we wear seatbelts and helmets
for a reason! It is up to all of us
who design the courses, walk the
courses, drive the courses, etc to
be willing to ask questions as to
whether or not something about
a course is safe and/or needs
to be changed. Just making a
course design faster is not the right
answer.
I like the adrenalin rush as much as
anyone (ask me sometime about
hitting 106mph in my old S2000
on an auto-x course) but the risk of
incidents like this one (which can
damage the viability of our sport)
needs to be taken into account by
everyone who participates.
I had some responsibility for
approving the course used on
Saturday and did not forsee any
problem but cars and drivers don’t
always do what we expect. They
are (yes, both) human after all.
End of safety steward rant.
Lastly, I think this will be my last
column as Solo2 Director. I have
had fun doing this for the last
couple of years but have to admit I
won’t miss the editor’s deadlines.
[Oh yeah, right. I get it. Blame the
victim. Sure. -- JZ]
I sincerely hope my tenure has
met your expectations and that I
and the solo committee have led
you all down a good path. See you
next season.
Could this young man be the
President’s Cup winner of 2020?
If you know who this is (and I don’t want to hear from his parents!) send the
answer to [email protected]

From A Director’s Chair
From A Director’s Chair
By: Cheryl ‘Mindy’ Allen, Director 1
At a Board meeting three or four months ago,
Matt Tabor reported on upcoming rally events.
Among other events, he mentioned a TSD rally
to Port Orford. My ears immediately perked
up. Being a member of Team Continental
as well as Oregon Region, I spent several
wonderful weekends in Port Orford, working
the TC races there, the last of which was
in 1998. I fell in love with the town and the
people, and I’ve often wished I had a good
reason to go back for another visit. Apparently
“We were flying by the
seat of our pants”
Holly Remington was feeling the same way, as
she quickly suggested that there might be some
members of Team Continental interested in
running the rally. Holly and I decided on the
spot that we would enter as a team. In the next
few weeks there was a lot of discussion, and we
ended up with four teams from TC who were
willing to take on the challenge; none of us with
more than the most rudimentary knowledge of
TSD rallying. And so, on to the story of “The
View from the Road Not Taken” or “Car 24 WHERE are you?”
It is nearing 8 AM on Saturday morning as Holly
and I pull into Wilsonville Memorial Park. The
sky is crystal blue, without a cloud in sight.
There is a mid-October chill in the air as we
get out of Holly’s Honda Pilot, but with the
sun just starting to peek over the tree tops, we
know that it is going to warm up quickly. It is
going to be a perfect day for a great adventure.
Several cars have arrived at the parking lot
ahead of us, and we quickly spot Greg Bell
and Bob Smethers driving Win Casey’s Audi, as
well as Donna Battin and Karen McCoy. Three
of the four intrepid Team Continental novice
teams have arrived. Teresa and Scott Hanken,
the fourth TC team, have not yet arrived.
Matt Tabor, Kevin Poirier, and Ben Bradley
are busy hauling cartons out of their vehicles,
and setting up equipment. We wander around
looking at the “real” rally vehicles that have
assembled in the parking lot, and meeting our
fellow competitors. Everyone is very friendly
and they quickly make us feel welcome. I am
feeling some serious butterflies of doubt.
Once I decided I would try the rally, I thought
it would be a good idea to find out how it all
works. There were a lot of good resources on
the internet, but after hours of studying such
Page
20
things as main road determinants and traps, I
found myself more confused than enlightened.
The only bright spot that I could see was the
fact that both Holly and I know where Port
Orford is; surely no matter how lost we got,
we could somehow find our way there. (The
bliss of ignorance!) Matt and Kevin notice our
nervousness and reassure us that this is really
a very simple rally. They promise us that we’ll
do okay.
Holly and I had done some advance planning
and figured we would at least need a stop
watch, an accurate digital watch, and a hand
held calculator. In short order, we discovered
that neither of us has a good digital watch, my
stop watch is in my turn bucket which is in a
truck in Phoenix (that’s another story!), and
the only calculator we could come up with was
a desk model that had to be plugged in. We
settled for a small notepad and a couple of pens.
As the drivers meeting starts, I look around and
notice that everyone else has a clipboard - darn,
why didn’t we think of that?
The drivers meeting is excellent. Kevin goes
over the instructions with us in detail. He and
the real rally teams are infinitely patient with
us as we ask about the acronyms. CAST means
“change average speed to”. Everyone laughs as
I ask what the heck SOL means, but he explains
that it is “sign on the left”. He then explains
that the start time for each stage is “time zero”,
and the start time for each team is time zero
plus their car number. He and Matt pass out
magnetic numbers and SCCA Rally signs for
each side of our vehicles. Ours is “24” but
they explain that we are really car #14, the
14 signs were lost on a previous rally. As the
meeting ends, Teresa and Scott finally pull into
the parking lot. I worry that they have missed
the instructions, but Holly and I are feeling
pretty confident that we are prepared for what
is ahead of us. We have confirmed that our cell
phones match the official rally time, and we
decide that we will rely on them to keep us on
time. No matter that the official time is kept in
tenths of a second and our cell phones only give
us hour and minutes. It is the best we can do.
We leave Wilsonville exactly on time and
take a very short trip down I-5. Then it is
off on side roads. The rally directions are
written so that we are looking for landmarks
every 2 to 3 tenths of a mile. We realize very
quickly that our actual geographic location is
unimportant as long as we are on the mark
with the instructions, and staying on top of
those is intense, non-stop business. We also
realize early on, as we get to an instruction
LOUD PEDAL
that says “CAST to 41 at “speed 15”, that
just maintaining the posted speed limit is not
going to work. The rally course is taking us
over twisty back roads with lots of low speed
corners - the trick is driving very fast on the
straight stretches to make the average speed
- and constantly monitoring the odometer. The
odometer is another story. It only takes us a
few miles to realize that the odometer on the
car is not accurate. The mileage is creeping
up over the official mileage. The farther we
go, the greater the difference. As navigator, I
am reading Holly the course directions, while
I’m trying to calculate the increasing difference
in our mileage and add it on to the directions
ahead of time so I can give her accurate
instructions…all the while bouncing around as
we speed around corners and over hills.
Things were going well for us through the first
half of Saturday. But during the last TSD stage,
before the lunch transit, things changed. We
found ourselves on a one-lane road climbing
the side of a mountain. The road was a series of
hairpin turns, with a sheer drop off on driver’s
left and a precipice on driver’s right. After just
a few minutes we were both wondering if we
were on course. The road was barely one
lane, and strewn with large rocks. The next
instruction told us to look for a “1 mile” sign
- which wasn’t there. But there was no place
to turn around, so we kept climbing. The next
instruction was for a “2 mile” sign - and there it
“A traffic ticket is an
automatic DQ for the
event”
was, matching the mileage exactly. Okay, so it
was hanging upside down, but the mileage was
exactly where it should be. So we kept on. The
following instruction told us to bear right - and
once again the mileage was right on target and
there was a place to bear right, but it was two
dim tire tracks headed straight up the side of
the mountain. At that point common sense
took over and we decided to stay on the paved
road.
Fast forward. As we came back down the
mountain, after finding the only turn-around
spot when the pavement ran out, we looked
out across a wide valley several hundred feet
below us, and saw a gently curving road. Could
that be where we were supposed to be? Our
cell phones had gone into “analog roam” long
before, so we had no idea of the accurate time.
We were flying by the seat of our pants.
The end of the TSD portion of the first
day is just north of Bandon. Holly and I are
November 2002

exhausted. We cruise down into town with
the sun in our eyes. Holly hits the brakes as
she sees a sign that says “30 mph”. At the same
time she observes a police officer pulling his
radar gun into the window of his cruiser. He
pulls out into traffic, just behind us. Karen and
Donna are in front of us, and Bob and Greg
in front of them. As we get into downtown
Bandon, the lights on the police car come on,
and Holly pulls over to the curb. A traffic ticket
is an automatic DQ for the event.
Fast forward again. We finally make Port
Orford at 6 PM. We check into the Castaway
Motel, and head back into town for a tuna
barbecue at the Community Center. Later
we meet up with some of the real rallyists at
Paula’s Bistro. There is a lot of “bench-racing”,
exchanging the stories of our day. Paul Eklund is
very generous, sharing many tips for improving
our scores. Greg is paying close attention, and
I’m doing my best to eavesdrop.
We are up early again on Sunday morning,
ready for another long day. Things go better for
us on Sunday. Our times are good. The last TSD
leg is pretty easy. The land is flat and the only
challenge is staying alert as the instructions go
to every two or three miles instead of tenths
of miles. We end up in Albany. Ben and Kevin
crunch the numbers on their computer to get
our scores. Howard calls me from Phoenix
to ask how it has gone. I tell him that we
won’t need to clear a space on the mantle for
another trophy. But I am wrong. Holly and I
get the trophy for most points scored (LOL).
Teresa and Scott finished 4th overall. I don’t
think they will be running in the Novice Class
again! And, best of all, Holly and I can’t wait to
try it again! We learned a lot, and I figure we
have a secure spot in Novice Class for a long
time to come.
And if you are interested in the two big
questions -- “Did we get lost?” and “Did we
get a ticket?” see Holly’s column.

Unknown Spec Racer
It was a cold rainy day in October, as I
stood in my garage and looked at what
had become my obsession. My Spec Racer
Ford and I just finished our first season of
SCCA competition driving. And to think it
all started out so innocently.
As a young boy I took an immediate interest
in racing. Whether it was listening to the
Indy 500 on the radio, looking through
motorsport magazines at the exploits of
Formula One drivers, or witnessing firsthand the sights and sounds of drivers
pushing their cars to the limits at the local
amateur race, I dreamed of the day that I too
would become a race car driver.
As years passed the dream that once burned
so brightly began to slowly dim as I gained
the new responsibilities of college, a career,
marriage and children. Yet the flame still
flickered, and after many years of dreaming
about racing I knew what I had to do:
become a race car driver.
After a period of several months of
exhaustive research, I chose to pursue my
racing career from behind-the-wheel of a
Spec Racer Ford. The Spec Racer Ford is
a one design, fixed specification car that
is relatively affordable to purchase and
maintain. It is the most popular class in
SCCA with events held at race tracks across
the country. With the cars being identical,
tight competition abounds with driver skill
being the deciding factor of the race. What
more could a budding race car driver ask
for? So I enrolled in a professional race
school and set out with a new helmet in
hand wondering how I would compare to
the other future racers.
After four days of intensive drills and lapping
sessions, I found that I had a lot to learn, like
many other “natural born race car drivers.”
Becoming a quick, skillful race car driver
was going to take a tremendous amount
of seat time and effort on my part. Then
again, nobody said this dream was going to
be easy.
Racing in the Spec Racer Ford class is not for
the faint of heart. Ultra competitive racing

with 20 or more cars going wheel-to-wheel
leaves its share of bruised egos among the
rookie drivers. This isn’t anything like hotrodding on city streets or taking part in a
car club track day. These drivers are serious
about their racing and the front runners are
very FAST! They circulate the track at lap
times I can only dream about at this stage of
Heart pounding race starts, drifting through
a corner on the edge of adhesion, drafting
within inches of another car, late braking
passes, keeping my foot firmly on the gas
pedal when my brain is telling me to lift, and
driving through the rooster tails of spray in a
rain storm, make racing the most challenging
sport I’ve ever competed in.
“Having the fast time of the day at Malibu Grand
Prix a few years ago doesn’t seem like much
of an accomplishment anymore”
my career. Having the fast time of the day at
Malibu Grand Prix a few years ago doesn’t
seem like much of an accomplishment
anymore; finishing in the top ten of a Spec
Racer Ford race would be.
With each test day and race weekend
I continued to improve steadily, driving
faster and more consistent lap times, while
learning that passing another race car with
equal power and the same chassis is not an
easy task. Even if the car in front of me was
a few tenths of a lap slower, it was difficult
setting up the opportunity to pass, let alone
making the pass stick. However, my racecraft
continued to improve with every race.
Setting a personal record lap time, finishing
further up the grid than I started, waving to
corner workers in appreciation on the cool
off lap, sharing a story with a fellow driver
moments after a hard fought battle, and
receiving congratulations from family and
friends, make racing the most rewarding
sport I’ve ever participated in.
As I turn out the light in my garage, I realize
I have a long way to go before I’ll be a
veteran race car driver. But in one season
of racing I’ve certainly come a long way in a
short time. I’m living the dream.

As I visit the various venues of our great
club, I’m always amazed at how well we
do things. We have an incredible sense of
family throughout all 3 of our venues. I
should learn not to be surprised, but, I am
always so impressed with our membership.
I am filled with pride to see Rally, SoloII and
Club Racing getting along so well, sharing in
competition and the love of motorsports.
While my first love is Club Racing, it brings
me great joy to know that my personal
mission of bringing us together is for the
most part, a success. We’re a strong Club
because of our Unity!
I took part in my first Rally Adventure.
See Mindy’s article about all our trials and
tribulations. My contribution is, yes we were
lost. No - we didn’t get a ticket for going
50 in a 30 mph zone, that’s all I have to say
about this issue, on the grounds my answers
may incriminate me. Needless to say, I just
had a terrific time. It was an incredible
experience, and I intend to do many more.
I can’t believe how intense the TSD miles
were. The intensity surpassed only by the
beauty of this beautiful state we are lucky
enough to call home.
As I write this article, I’m on the telephone
with a NorPac Division Conference call.
The Division Board is working hard on
the Subaru 2003 NorPac Convention in
Reno, at the Atlantis Hotel & Casino. The
Convention will be from January 10 - January
12, 2003. It’s a great way to get together
with friends from all the Regions way out
Left. The Atlantis will prove to be a fun
Hotel. Most of the venues will have National
office representation. In fact, Steve Johnson,
Kurt Spitzner and Howard Duncan were
all on hand last year. I know Howard has
confirmed his participation as of this time,
as well as an SCCA U Instructor. I have no
reason to believe that Steve and Kurt won’t
be there as well. It’s a great opportunity to
have some one on one time with those folks.
There are many topics on the Agenda that
will prove valuable to those who attend.
Its also, a way to get some regular topic
information without going all the way to the
National Convention. Earlybird Registration
closes on December 7, 2002. See the ad in
this publication or follow the link from
http://www.oregonscca.com.
The NorPac Happenings writer, Tom
Masterson would like to receive information
about accomplishments of the Oregon
Region or its members. If you have something
noteworthy and would like it to be included
in his SportsCar article his deadline is usually
the 1st or last Monday of the month. He can
be emailed at [email protected]. As
much as your officials try, we sometimes
miss a lot of interesting goings on.
My Rally buddy, Mindy and I are off to an
all SCCA Pro Racing weekend at Virginia
International Raceway. We intend to work
turns all three days of the event. This is a
beautiful facility, one I have wanted to visit
for a number of years. Flatout Racing is
taking a few Spec Racer Fords back, and so
we figured it was a good excuse to be there
to watch over our drivers. I’ve had some
discussions with SCCA Pro Racing about
coming back to Portland for an event. So
I’ll look those folks up
while I’m there. Also,
I’m very intrigued
by
the
unique
capitalization
that
reopened VIR into
the only motorsports
country club.

Can” meeting on

I hope you can make it. This will be an
informal General Membership meeting, as
well as an opportunity for a bunch of clubs
to get together to facilitate a self-driven
PIR User Group. PIR management has told
me in the past, that it would be easier for
them to receive one request rather than a
multitude of essentially the same requests
for improvements, etc.
In addition, I’d like to explore building our
own multipurpose Club facility. As you can
guess, the theme of this meeting is we can
do it - and I truly believe we can! I hope we
can brainstorm and build enthusiasm for this
type of venture. I believe that the Oregon
region can be a leader in this vision, with
the help of all our local clubs, each of you,
our big brother to the South and our SCCA,
Inc parents - We can do it! I believe with
a sound business plan, a firm capitalization
plan, a generous environmental plan and
“We’re a strong
Club because of
our Unity!”
the right Chairman all the clubs in our area
could hold an interest in this facility.
My desire to start thinking about this
project is not because we want to give up
racing at PIR. Just the opposite, the Oregon
Region has called PIR home for 40 years.
We hope to support Club Racing at PIR for
at least another 40 years.
The Oregon Region is not just a Road
Racing club. We have two other venues,
who are growing significantly each year in
not just their membership, but, this is key,
in their participation. A new facility in the
Pacific Northwest can be contemplated to
allow for the needs of Rallycross, SoloII,
Performance Rally school, Car Control
clinics, etc. The possibilities are endless.
Please join us on November 8, 2002.

WSRC Announces Points Events for
2003
Thousand Oaks, CA. The Western States Rally
Championship (WSRC) today selected seven
rallies in 2003 that will earn points towards its
year-end championship. This inaugural season
includes three events in the Pacific northwest,
three in southern California, and one in
Colorado. All seven are part of the Sports
Car Club of America’s (SCCA) “ClubRally”
program. The championship will be decided
based on the best six out of seven results.
The WSRC recognizes five SCCA ClubRally
classes and will award year-end trophies to
the top drivers and codrivers for each of these
categories.
The full 2003 calendar of points-paying events
is as shown in the inset box. While some the
dates are still tentative, they aren’t expected to
shift more than a week or so in one direction
or another.

Steve Johnson, president of the SCCA,
fully supports the Western States Rally
Championship. “Our ClubRallies and rallyists
are the backbone of the SCCA rally program.
While much of the hype and exposure you see

of the Western States Rally Championship
for supporting the SCCA’s rally program.
Rest assured that the SCCA will support and
promote your efforts well into the future.”
“Now that we’ve defined our 2003 calendar
we’re already looking ahead to 2004,” reported
John Dillon, chairman for the WSRC. “All the
western rallies are part of our series, but
because our competitors are club-level and
can’t afford extensive travel, we can only
include certain events as points-paying events
each year. As such, we plan to select different
venues in subsequent seasons. This will not
only help out all the organizers that host
the western rallies, it will give the racers a
more interesting mix of roads and different
challenges each year.” He added that the
series is deliberately “starting small” so it can
manage its growth. “It’s possible that in 2004
the championship will be based on the best six
out of eight or nine rallies instead of seven.”

including the rules and series charter, can be

to offer financial support to the series or have
other questions, contact John Dillon via e-mail:

his kind invitation in asking me to come up

like to Thank all the Stewards, Chiefs, and
workers for making me feel so welcome.
Oregon Region is made up of some of the
best members in the country. (Of course,
some came from my home region: San
Diego.) The racing was great and I will
say you all run a few classes, but that is
what makes it fun to come and play. I have
participated in Oregon Region events in the
past and it was always a pleasure. Phil and I
hope we will get invited back.
Thanks again for your kindness and a FUN
weekend.

Tarmac Zone Rally
Brought UsTogether
An Open Letter To The Club:
The Oregon Rally Group extends
its heartfelt thanks to the Oregon
Region SCCA for all the help and
resources in making our club rally
exhibition possible. With all the help
from the entire board, organizers and
course workers this could not have
happened as smoothly as it did.
It was positive to see the attention
we attracted and also the renewed
interest some of our people have
in devoting time to volunteering at
road racing events. In my mind the
fine point to the day was to help two
factions of the same club to come
together and start to understand and
utilize one another more frequently. I
believe we accomplished that.
If there is anything that the Oregon
Rally Group as a whole can do to help
enhance one or more of your race
weekends please do not hesitate to
call upon us. Likewise we hope to
see some of your people come and
enjoy driving our rallycross events in
their street cars and trucks. (since it
is run/worked like Solo II, we do not
need pure workers.) Any help that
can be lent to our Oregon Trail Rally,
a National ProRally event; or our Mt.
Hood Club Rally would be welcomed.
A quick concensus of our competitors
and volunteers this weekend shows
that the rally exhibition would be
welcomed next year by our group.
Tarmac is such a rarity for us. This
annual renewal of solidarity between
our groups could only help to
strengthen our club.

OREGON REGION SCCA
POSITION DESCRIPTION
Chief of Specialty: Chief, Race Workers
Services
IV. Responsibilities
I.
A) Providing food and drink for all Race Workers
at Oregon Region Road Racing Events.
Introduction:
In May of 1997 the Oregon Region SCCA Board
of Directors established a program to benefit
Workers with funds provided by driver support.
The Oregon Region entry forms were modified
to provide an area where drivers could contribute
monies to a worker fund. The monies collected in
this manner were intended to directly benefit Race
Workers through products and services used in
connection with Oregon Region events. These
driver contributions were not to be used for
the Membership Dues Program.
It was intended that the Oregon Region Activities
Chairperson manage this program with the
assistance of two (2) additional race worker
volunteers. The establishment of a Chief of Race
Workers Services is intended to supersede
that management program. The Race Worker
Driver - Support[ed]Program, as an integral part
of the Oregon Region SCCA Race Worker Award
Program, is hereby amended.
II. Purpose:
The purpose of establishing a Chief of Race
Workers Services is to provide a mechanism by
which Oregon Region Race Workers are provided
with the necessary tools to perform their function
and a system to reward Race Workers for service
to the region that is extraordinary and which brings
credit to their Specialty and the Oregon Region.
In establishing this position, it is the intent of the
Oregon Region Board of Directors to create a
position that not only has the responsibility for
providing the services necessary for the Race
Workers to fulfill their duties, but to create a
position that has the authority to provide rewards
to individual Race Workers for exemplary service.
III. Amendment to Race Worker-Driver
Support[ed]] Program:
The Race Worker - Driver Support[ed] Program is
to be amended by the establishment of a Specialty,
Race Worker Services, with a Chief and

The Chief of Race Worker Services will be
responsible for:
B) Providing weather protection for Race
Workers at Oregon Region Road Racing Events.
Examples include, but are not limited to:
Rain Gear
Cool Collars
Bandannas
Sunscreen
Shelters and other weather protection at Turn
Stations
C) Chiefs of other Specialties will request
Services through the Chief - Race Workers Services.
Oregon Region Specialty Identification
Patches
Hand Towels
Buckets
Rubber Mats at Turn Stations
Note: Services provided through A),B) and C) will
be funded through the fiscal budgetary process.
D) Accepting recommendations for, and
authorizing, rewards for exemplary service by Race
Workers.
Gift Certificates
Travel Allowances(mileage and lodging) for out of
Region Road Racing Events
Flags
T-Shirts
Note: Rewards provided through D) will be funded
through the Race Worker - Driver Support[ed]
Program.
V. Appointment:
The Chief of Race Worker Services shall be an
appointed position and the Oregon Region Board
of Directors will consider the recommendations of
the Race Operations Manager and the Road Racing
Director. The Oregon Region Board of Directors
LOUD PEDAL
shall have the final authority to appoint the Chief
of Race Worker Services. The appointment
shall be for one year and the appointment shall
be reviewed annually by the incoming Board of
Directors.
VI.
Authority
The Oregon Region shall entrust to The Chief
of Race Worker Services the authority to
accomplish the responsibilities outlined in this
Position Description.
Funds in the Race Worker - Driver Support[ed]
Program as of January 1, 2003 will be made available
to the Chief of Race Worker Services to fund
rewards for exemplary service.
Rewards made for exemplary service under the
Race Worker - Driver Support[ed] Program shall
be made at the sole discretion of the Chief of
Race Worker Services. The value of a reward for
exemplary service shall not exceed $200.00 and no
Reward shall be given if the balance in that Program
falls below $2,000.00

Objects In The Mirror
Objects In The Mirror May
Be Closer Than they Appear
By: Dave Isselhard, Road Racing Director
This time of the Fall, I look in the Mirror
and I remember October of 1958. What a
great year and what a great time of my life. I
had just accepted a civilian position after my
tour as a Naval Officer. Having qualified for
Command at Sea and after two tours in the
Atlantic and two in the Pacific, I had resigned
my Regular U.S. Navy Commission and
become a member of the Naval Reserve.
But why was this a great time of my life? I
had discovered Sports Cars and purchased
a one year old (1957) Alfa Romeo Giulietta
Spyder from European Sports Cars in San
Diego.
race) lodgers at the motel, and we drove to
the track. Bill “packed” the valve springs
to raise the maximum RPM from 5750 to
6500. I checked the tire pressures (the same
tires that we had on the car driving to Santa
Barbara and on which we intended to drive
home ) and polished the car. We did remove
the windscreen. We did not have to remove
the muffler. We did that before we left San
Diego. Boy, was that a loud trip to Santa
Barbara.
Bill put on his borax soaked white coveralls,
a motorcycle helmet and goggles and went
“But why was this a great time of my life?
I had discovered Sports Cars“
During the purchase I made a friend. Bill
Rustad, the Service Manager at European
Motors owned and raced an Arnolt-Bristol
Bolide (a ’55 if I remember correctly) and
both drove the car as a daily driver and,
as Member of the SCCA, raced the car in
either B Production or C Production. The
chassis was designed by “Wacky” Arnolt
of Chicago and the body was, I believe,
a Bertone design. What a combination:
American Chassis, British Motor and Italian
Coachwork! I knew something about what
it took to make a car handle and Bill asked
me to “crew” for him. The inline 6 hemihead, triple carbed Bristol motor (with 18
push rods) was a complete mystery to me.
I was used to Lycoming 6, Ford Flathead
V-8 and Mercury OHV V-8 motors. It was
sometime later that I learned that the Inline
6 Bristol was originally a 1938 BMW design
that was “awarded” to the Bristol Aeroplane
Company in Merry Old England as a part of
the “spoils of war”.
My first race as a member of Bill’s Crew
was at the old Santa Barbara track. Bill and
I drove (no trailers) the Arnolt-Bristol up
to Santa Barbara on Friday evening, stayed
overnight at a motel, where about 30 other
Drivers and their Crew lodged.
Early
Saturday morning, after we washed the
Arnolt-Bristol, every one rolled their cars
to the street so as not to wake other (non-
November 2002
out to practice. I realized that the “Crew”
was me! I saw the GCR for the first time
(I believe it was about 30 pages long) and
actually read it. To be a member of the SCCA
one had to be sponsored or nominated and
one “Black Ball” could be the cause of your
application being denied. Car to car contact
was NOT allowed.
I do not recall where Bill placed. He finished
with the car in good shape and we drove it
home. The next year I was a spectator or
Crew at every Sports Car Race I could find,
Santa Barbara, Holtville and Riverside, the
Palace of Speed. Yeah, I was hooked. The
only question was: How could I afford to
get into Competition myself? But that is
another story!
But enough of my “MIRROR”. 2002 has
been a great year. It is time for me to let
another have a chance to be the Road
Racing Director. As I advised in my last
column, thank you for the opportunity
to serve all of you, Drivers, Chiefs and
Workers, and to serve the Oregon Region.
I hope to see all of you at the Awards
Banquet where I can thank you personally.
By the time that you read this, you will have
elected a new Road Racing Director. He will
need your support and just as you gave me
your assistance, please assist the new RRD.
I will give whatever support and assistance
that is requested of me.
Most of all, thanks for “Looking in the
Mirror” and taking care of each other out
there!
[Ed Note: Dave’s Race Worker Services
program for 2003 is described on the
opposite page.]
Bonnie Aarseth and Bill Carr are among the many SCCA members who take care
of us on track - be sure to give them a wave at the end of your session.
