I like to get out and do things, and this time of year, for the most part, is not conducive to doing things outside, like driving a Porsche. I can’t tell you how much I’m anticipating March 8 when we move our clocks forward and get an extra hour of daylight! The weather starts turning and it’s a glorious time of year. Now, though, is a time of planning. We begin filling our calendars with business travel, sporting events, vacations and more. Hopefully, there’s time left over to attend one of the many OVR events the club is already diligently planning for the year. As secretary and newsletter editor this year, my eyes have really been opened to the massive effort put into each event to make it something truly special for our members. As a credit to our chairs, each one wants to make his or her event really stand out among the crowd of so many great events each year. Steve Nelson is busy coordinating with numerous other groups to plan concours events throughout the year. Red Brick Reunion looks to be a bigger and better event this year with a happy hour on Friday, car show on Saturday and possibly a group drive to French Lick for Parade on Sunday. I’m sure the serious concours folks are already planning their show schedule for the year and brushing up on techniques to make their car “pop” more than the next guy's. Mark Simpson is planning our West Virginia Outreach event for the end of May. To give you a sneak peek into the planning process, there’s a possible car show at the Greenbrier Sporting Club and a tour through the Appalachian Mountains. Bill Kief and the autocross committee have a full slate of autocross events planned this year. Gary Nichols is making special plans for our 25th year at Mid-Ohio. Earlier this year, I wanted a way to track all of these fantastic events and to update them as soon as someone in the club sent me dates and information about them, so I created a calendar with my [email protected] address. You can already keep track of the OVR calendar in the Bent Pylon and on our website at ovrpca.org. However, in our increasingly tech-centered society, many people expect to have access to their calendar all the time on any device, particularly mobile devices. Now you can keep track of all OVR events by subscribing to the iCal format link at the bottom of this article. No matter what type of electronic calendar you use (Outlook, Google, Yahoo!, etc) you should be able to find instructions on how to subscribe to an iCal calendar. The only compatibility issue I know of is Outlook for Mac users. https://www.google.com/calendar/ical/ovrbentpylon%40gmail.com/public/basic.ics Patrick McCue and I met Bill Kief on an unseasonably warm and sunny Saturday in February for this photoshoot. Watching and helping Patrick “paint the car with light” to create images of stark contrast between the Peridot Green Metallic car and the arches of the concrete guardrails was truly a pleasure. 4 PorscheFile - Bill Kief Josh Snyder - Editor, Photos by Patrick McCue Bill Kief is a former OVR president and current autocross chair. He lives in Anderson, works in industrial sales and spends the majority of his free time in Cincinnati with OVR members. Bill also has a second life in Los Angeles with his wife Janet and daughter Jayde who are following Jayde's creative life in performance arts. This gives Bill a chance to chase the west coast car scene and expand his Porsche family. Why did you become a board member? Paul and Marilyn Jones asked Janet and me to serve on the OVR board in 1994 and anyone who met Paul and Marilyn quickly understood they rarely if ever heard the word no. I have enjoyed every bit of serving the club. What was your first Porsche? My first Porsche was a 1985 Carrera with Guards Red paint, black interior, Guards Red BBS wheels and both front and rear spoilers. Janet and I loved that car. What is your current Porsche? Presently my daughter Jayde and I own a 2012 Cayman R with Peridot Metallic paint, black Alcantara interior, 19" wheels, some aluminum body panels and front and rear spoilers. Jayde and I prepared it for a few concours events the first year but now we enjoy track events and autocross with our dear Peridot. What is your favorite Porsche of all time? My favorite Porsche of all time was the GT1. Rohr Motorsport here in northern Cincinnati campaigned one in 1997 and won the IMSA Championship. I was lucky enough to know the Rohr guys and spent a lot of time at the garage and at the track with them and the car.

The 1993 Porsche Parade was hosted by OVR. Janet and I were new to OVR but thought it was a blast. We met hundreds of PCA members, several Porsche executives and Peter Porsche, son of Ferry Porsche. Janet volunteered in hospitality and I volunteered for concours garage prep security, hospitality and Sale Night at The Goodie Store. That was wilder than the Moonlight Sales at McAlpins in Anderson. If you could tell Porsche management one thing, what would it be? I would tell them to keep making cars that are fun to drive and affordable to own. I would also ask for a lower weight (2500 lb) and higher horsepower (400) mid-engine car. 5 OVR PCA Profile Brent Fagan - Membership Chair The Ohio Valley Region PCA membership has grown to almost 800 Primary Active members. Thirty-nine of our prized members have not listed an email address in their PCA profile. Fifteen of those without an email address also have not listed a phone number in their profile. We respect our members' privacy and absolutely will not call unless contact is first initiated by the member. However, every member is very important and we want to insure that each member has an opportunity to participate in our Region and National activities. In an average month, the Ohio Valley Region sends out about three emails to the entire membership. For those who consider email as a bother, we hope that there is a designee, such as a family member, or possibly a work associate or subordinate who could capture and direct important communications. Please contact me so I can help update your profile with your designated email address. My contact information is listed in this publication in the section entitled Committee Chairs. Autocross Nicole Dubnicay-Wellen - Autocross Committee How many times have you been out for an evening drive, only to notice an empty parking lot off to the side with its lonely streetlamps calling you to take your Porsche on a whirlwind trip through its crisscross lines as fast as you can go? But alas, the fear of police sirens, security guards and those mischievous door dinging shopping carts keep you from being able to fulfil your desire. Problem solved: Autocross! Ohio Valley Region will be kicking off a long anticipated autocross season in 2015 with five events starting in April and ending in September. Events will be held at Forest Fair Mall, the current location of Bass Pro Shops, near the intersection of I-275 (exit 39) and Winton Road north of Cincinnati. The driving area will be in the back parking lot, a generous space where drivers will be able to reach substantial speeds by autocross standards. According to Bill Kief, OVR Autocross Committee Chair, “We all know there is pent-up demand and finding a large lot was the holdup. This venue gives us many desirable track configuration possibilities.” PCA groups drivers by their car class, Pi (356) through P32 (991 Turbo S). There will be several classes for competition depending on what cars show up. Startup time on each Saturday day will be 8 a.m., with registration, tech inspections, track familiarity and morning briefing. There are options for eateries and restrooms in and near the mall. Bring a folding chair and personal shade if needed. Be on the lookout for more articles about Autocross in upcoming issues of the Bent Pylon. If you’re interested in autocross, join us March 28 at Porsche of the Village for an autocross clinic. We will cover all the basics of this exciting sport and answer your questions. For more information please contact Bill Kief at [email protected]. For those new to the sport, autocross is a fun and exciting way to drive your vehicle on a small track against the clock. Drivers will be maneuvering around sharp curves, slaloms, straightaways and in tight handling situations while pushing the cars' limits. All of this will be accomplished in a safe and controlled environment. One driver will be on the course individually so the risk to the vehicle is slight. Safety is always the primary concern at an autocross event. Autocross is a fabulous opportunity for OVR members to get out and drive! It’s an inexpensive way to push your driving limits, learn about safe handling in your vehicle and even earn some bragging rights. The events will be open to all OVR members, friends and family and their vehicles. Estimated cost per driver is $25 for the day. 6 Nicole Dubnicay-Wellen’s first autocross event in 2005. Photo by Kali Pinckney Spring Classic Driving Tour Kurt Niemeyer - Member Here in the Ohio Valley the frosty grip of winter is keeping many of us in the garage preparing our favorite wheeled friend for better (read warmer) days ahead. The Spring Equinox is approaching and the first of many driving tours for OVR is just down the road! Mark your calendar for Saturday April 18 to drive across southwest Ohio and get your own Porsche season rolling. The Adams County Classic Driving Tour 2015 will wind across the ridges and valleys of southern Ohio, along Ancient Buffalo and Indian Trails, across the rim of a crater and bend along creek beds bursting with the first blooms of the new season. New routing and destinations are planned for your driving pleasure with stops at our favorite Amish Market for delicacies and accessories, where Tom Cole will be checking out the pies! The John T. Wilson Homestead Underground Railroad Station and Nationally recognized Historical Site is also on the agenda. A tour conducted by restorers Ralph and Patty Alexander will highlight the story. Barn Sale Antiques features a corner of Gas Station/Auto Dealer memorabilia always popular with car enthusiasts. Again this year we will be winding down at Moyer’s On the River where you can sample the wine and culinary delights before a relaxing drive will get you back home. The route is continuously and rigorously tested for characteristics that explore many features of your car while providing exemplary scenery and an overall lack of traffic. Entrants will be dispatched in small groups to avoid traffic congestion and allow everyone to safely enjoy the performance of their machine. We are in need of several more people to lead small groups of cars, so if you are interested in leading a group of cars, please send a message and we can get you acclimated with route instructions in advance of the event. Last year we had 70 cars enjoy this event when we visited Adams County. Watch this space for online registration information coming soon!

Contact Advertising Chair Toni Lichvar: [email protected] 9 Parade 101 Ted Hunter - OVR Member at Large, photos by Ted Hunter OVR hosted a Porsche Club of America panel discussion of the upcoming 60th Porsche Parade to be held this year at French Lick, Indiana on June 21-27. The panel included PCA Zone 4 Representative Michael Soriano (accompanied by his wife, Lisa), French Lick Resorts representatives Dean Blackburn and Jordan Santo, PCA Parade Committee member Francie Kish (accompanied by her husband, Phil) and OVR members Ted Hunter, Kathie Hunter, Dave Collins and John Patterson. Attendees will earn a PCA Judging Certification at the end of the all-day event. The goal is to train more judges who will be available for Parade Concours in the future. There will be a limit on attendees. Keep an eye on the Zone 4 website and in Michael’s monthly column in the Bent Pylon for more details. Over 70 OVR members attended the two sessions. The morning session was hosted by Porsche of the Village and the afternoon session by White-Allen European Auto Group. We thank both of these dealers for their continued support of our region’s activities. They were very accommodating for this panel discussion event. The panel discussion revolved around the Porsche Parade experience, procedures of Registration, events of the week and the special attractions specific to this 60th anniversary of the celebration of all things Porsche. The French Lick Resort has really rolled out the red carpet for the PCA Parade event. The facilities are spectacular and historic, the amenities are first-rate and the prices are truly unbelievable. Much more information is on parade2015.pca.org. This event has the potential to be one of the most impressive PCA Parades. Also, Michael Soriano reported a special Parade Concours Judging Certification program is scheduled for Bluegrass Porsche in Louisville, Kentucky on Saturday, March 28. 10 Above: Michael Soriano, Dean Blackburn, Francie Kish and Jordan Santo.

I want to thank Bill Winstel, Jeff Paul and ALL of the employees at the dealership who helped make this our largest, most successful chili party yet. Every year they provide the rental tables and chairs, soft drinks, water, paper and plastic products and many of the gifts that are auctioned off. It was wonderful for Susan and me to arrive at 5:00 p.m. and to see the tables with tablecloths and chairs set up for the party. Many unnamed people at the dealership helped from setting up tables and chairs to wiring the tables for the chili and even unloading our car. Thanks again to Porsche Kings Auto Mall for everything. Dennis Okin presenting a check to Jill, Rodney and Jessie Markland. Photo by Ted Hunter. We had 16 chili entrants with a wide variety of tastes, and the number of desserts was the most ever. Our mystery judges chose the winners of the contests. Michael and Sonya Fogelman won for best chili and Pam Busam won for best dessert. It was amazing to see all of the chili, as well as chips and salsa consumed. Somehow, six large bottles of red wine, four large bottles of white wine and over 100 beers all disappeared. What a hungry, thirsty crew! Dessert contest winner Pam Busam. Photo by Ted Hunter. not wait to show me his scars from numerous surgeries. NF is such a debilitating disease; the Markland’s have lost count as to how many operations Jessie has had over the years. I was pleased to present Jill and Jessie a check for $2500 for the Children’s Tumor Foundation which fights NF every day. I am thrilled to announce that OVR has raised nearly $20,000 for this cause over the years. Our auction was lively. OVR donated two driver education certificates. The dealership donated two large Porsche replica cars, three small Porsche model cars, a Porsche watch and a variety of sweatshirts and golf shirts. Mary Seigel even won the bid on a Porsche 918 replica and then gave the car to Jessie Markland. He did not let go of that car for the rest of the evening and never stopped smiling. Thank you, Mary, for such a kind gesture. Jill, Rodney and Jessie Markland attended our event. Jessie is afflicted with neurofibromatosis (NF), and he could Finally, I have a number of other people to thank for making this event so successful. In addition to the people at Porsche Kings Auto Mall, Herb and Sandi Beck helped with the all the final touches, registration, tear down and loading of my car. Ted Hunter secured the tables used for the chili from the hospital and acted as photographer. Kathie Hunter ran registration. Thomas Crihfield supplied and set up the amp and speakers. As usual, my wife pulled the whole thing together and made it look well organized. We hope to see everyone again next year. Chili contest winners Michael and Sonya Fogelman. Photo by Ted Hunter.

When they are brought out, on occasion, they bring back those times in vivid clarity. Thanks to Kathie Hunter who found this t-shirt pictured here in a box in her basement, the giveaway to entrants in OVR’s first Driver’s Education event at Mid-Ohio 25 years ago. There is a good chance this is the only one that survived that length of time. Of course Kathie and Ted have been storing OVR history in one shape or another for a long, long time, and for that diligence, we are grateful. I was not at this inaugural event, having brought home the SC that still sits in my garage on December 12, 1990, a few months after this event took place. If you were there in 1990, and have continued to join us all through the years, then you are certainly in a select club of just a few. I can think of Jerry Wolf, Ted and Kathie Hunter and John Meyer as ones that have likely made the roster. If you were there, I would enjoy hearing from you. point A to point B. Cars hold something special in our worlds. I have made so many friends from my love of cars and have so many memories enjoying those times we spent together sharing the common thread of cars. The photo albums in my basement are filled with those memories, most of them with a car in the picture along with those friends. June 12-14, 2015 will mark 25 years for this club venturing to Mid-Ohio. Whether you are a veteran of this event, a first timer, or somewhere in between, we invite you to join us in the celebration. Come and drive your Porsche the way it was designed in a safe and controlled setting. Rekindle old friendships, make new ones. Put some more memories in your personal album. If you are reading this, then you qualify as a car enthusiast, more than likely, a bona fide car nut, particularly to Porsches. Take a minute and ponder how many memories you have that centered on cars, be it road trips, vacations or club events. The list is long.

I do, however, hope it's in plenty of time to get both the truly addicted track junkies and the people wanting to finally give DE a shot, a bit of an adrenaline boost to shake off the mid-west cold! Much like the Bluegrass Motorsports Park near the Kentucky Speedway in Sparta, KY, there has been a lot of talk about the new track at the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green. For all you track rats the track itself is complete! What more could you want? Well, to keep the support staff (read wife/kids/girlfriend) happy, porcelain potties would be a good start. Right now all they have is a fairly ample supply of Porta-Johns, an already well-used and very small portable air compressor, and acres and acres of marvelous parking lot space. The large parking lot was even designed with large scale autocrosses in mind. The only problem with making the parking lot that wide open is they did not pre-wire any of it for electricity, which I found very surprising. The other absent thing is any type of vending. There’s no food or drink unless you or the club you're with brings it. There are restaurants fairly close by, but not what I would call convenient. The Corvette Museum knows all this and has plans to work on it, but plan accordingly if you go. you start accelerating for the first “straight" section. There is a slight veer right then left at what they've marked Turn 4, then light brake to set the car and enter the first of two very fast right hand sweepers. It takes a few sessions to make you a believer, but both have a remarkable amount of grip. Only one of them is slightly off camber, but I'll leave it to you to figure out which one. Enough of the things that don’t matter. Let's talk converting fossil fuels to noise! First I'd like to thank Dale Timmester for putting the word out to our group, and even more so, against his better judgment, for giving the Bluegrass BMW Club a nod of approval to let me instruct for them during not only their first, but the first ever real DE at the track! Previously, they only had two or three weekends of invitation-only gatherings. Overall, what I found most surprising was that it is not what I thought a near private race course built almost right outside the delivery-end door of the Corvette production facility would be! Shame on me and good for them. I had a pre-conceived notion that it would be a "Vette Track" with long straight-aways and short twisty sections. In a nut shell: point-and-shoot. I don't think I could have been more wrong. In fact, it seems more geared for a momentum car like a Porsche than a big monstrous V8 powered Corvette. The following is roughly how I break it down. Please remember, not very many people have driven it yet. Once they do, I'm sure there will be as many opinions as there are drivers, many better than mine. After the first few sessions on Friday, my mind seemed to view it as four technical sections, three straight sections, two sharp turns (one almost a hairpin) and one chicane. You enter the track at a safe spot between the end of the chicane and the first sharp turn (Turn 2). Just stay left for passing traffic. This feeds immediately into Turn 3 where 14 The first sweeper leads directly into the first technical part of the track. Brake hard for a right turn with not much room for track out. It feels like pulling into someone's driveway at 60 mph. This is probably a good time to bring up a key feature of the track. The track makes use of two different types of curbing. One is a smooth yet fairly high curb that is surprisingly easy to drive up on and even necessary such as entering the chicane. The second is like the spine of an evil dragon that will shake your car, disrupt your traction and maybe even shake loose a filling or two. Don't enter Turn 6 too hot or you'll see what I mean. Ask me how I know. Turns 7 through 9 are a fun exercise in timing and balance leading into the tightest and slowest turn on the track, Turn 10. Again, the track-out leads to the alligator curbing which I watched quite a few cars ops-check. Next, there's a short, almost straight, section that your mind wants to make a part of the "middle straight", but the right hand Turn 12 is just too tight to take flat out. Motorsports Park First Look Richard Wartenberg - OVR Member The "middle straight" is very fast with a couple of minor kinks (plenty of room for passing) but leads into what I thought was the most unnerving part of the track, the braking zone for Turn 16. Right at the point where you'd like to brake, the track fades away and turns left followed by a right-hand rise and entry to the fast Turn 16. Only you can't see it! You’ll be amazed what blind faith, a heavy right foot and sticky tires can do. This part is much like Turn 5 only Turn 17 is much faster and there's plenty of track-out. Incidentally, this also leads to the track exit on the left, which was not well marked at all and the exit procedure changed at least three times over the weekend. Now, staying on-track, we've entered the next technical area, the Sink Hole. You need to stay wide left, fairly deep, in Turn 18 then again commit to a completely blind late apex where the track drops into the abyss. If you find that you missed making it all the way in to the curbing, I would advise accepting what you've got, while you still have grip, and just brake more than normal and take the next left hander slow. I saw a four-door M3 totaled against the inner wall here, and my student spun his '08 C2S so that we slid sideways down the hill. The woman in the instructor seat of the Corvette following us said she'd never seen eyes as big as mine. Keep in mind, not only are the drivers learning this track, the corner workers are too! The corner worker back up at the top of the hill literally had no idea what to do when we spun. It was a little scary. When you get the Sink Hole right and you carry some good energy into Turn 20, the “Esses” through Turn 23 are just plain fun! All of this has brought you to the front straight. Finally a straight that is actually straight, where I can check oil pressure and temp. Not for long though because the chicane comes up fast. Not that I would know first-hand, but we were told the chicane is absolutely identical to the one at LeMans. In fact several parts of the track are supposed to be. All I know is that it's actually a really fun part of the track coming off the fast straight, and amazingly the tall smooth curbing is easy to cut across. This leaves me where I told you I was most surprised. I felt as if I was going fast! I was going fast. But I never got out of 4th gear. Prior to the DE, the track was so new, that the only YouTube videos I could find were of an SUV on a gravel surface and another of a GT3 the week before I went. I had noticed that the GT3 never made it all the way through the gearbox either. What a track! No time to rest! I would go back in a heartbeat. I hope by pointing out a couple of mishaps on the track that I haven't turned any new folks off that are on the fence with their baby. Mid-Ohio and Putnam Park are definitely more forgiving and so much fun, but NCMP is still a work in progress. I do fully believe that DE is the best and safest way to invest in you being able to handle your car when and if you ever get yourself into a "high performance" situation. See everyone in the good weather at Mid-Ohio! Photo by Richard Warenberg of his 911 SC at the National Corvette Museum Motorsports Park. RBR Letter of Commendation Steve Nelson - Concours Chair Red Brick Reunion (RBR) chairpersons braved unpredictable winter weather conditions in late January and met with Porsche of the Village (POV) leadership to personally present the POV Team with a "Letter of Commendation for Outstanding Sponsorship Support" as the Inaugural RBR Premier Sponsor in 2014. Later that afternoon, OVR also presented Dave and Steve Schardt of Forgeline and their team a "Letter of Commendation for Excellent Support and Participation." Save the date now and we'll see you on the bricks of Oxford for this year’s RBR II on June 20. Pictured left to right: C. Steve Nelson, Bill Huston, AJ Murphy and Walter Chin.

Around the Zone Michael Soriano - Zone 4 Representative Greetings PCA Zone 4 Members, As we are all looking forward to the arrival of spring, many regions are offering tech sessions to get our cars prepped for the driving season. In addition, regions have found ways to encourage PCA camaraderie during these winter months. There have been chili cook-offs, membership dinners, and new member events as well as Daytona viewing parties, and Saturday breakfasts. Last month I assembled a team of Parade experts and brought them with me to the Ohio Valley Region for 2 Parade 101 sessions in Cincinnati and Dayton. Nearly 100 members attended these informational meetings at Porsche of the Village and White-Allen Porsche. On hand to answer questions was a parade committee member, French Lick Resort management, and seasoned parade veterans who led discussions on Concours, TSD Rally, and Tech quiz. A few days later I travelled to Maryland to attend the Winter Board of Directors Meeting. In fact the entire time I was there, I was so busy in meetings that I actually set foot out of the hotel only twice during my stay. One of those times was to attend an open house at PCA headquarters, where we were treated to the unveiling of the new Porsche Club Coupe. Plans are being made for a combined Zone 4 and Zone 13 National Concours Judges School for the purpose of maintaining current and recruiting a new generation of Concours Judges. Information on the school’s date, location, and time will be posted on the Zone 4 website as soon as details become available. Please be sure to check your inboxes, local region’s website and newsletter, as well as the Zone 4 website http:// zone4.pca.org for the latest details on the many events available to you. Consider attending one of the many events being held throughout Zone 4 such as: • March 3 is Rally Sport Region’s Member Meeting at Karl’s Cabin in Plymouth, MI •Central Indiana Region’s 1st Saturday Breakfast will be held on March 7 at Charlie Brown’s in Speedway, IN • Motor-Stadt Region’s Board Meeting is March 10 at Spagnolo’s in Okemos, MI • Michiana Region’s Membership Meeting will be held on March 11 at Colombo’s in Elkhart, IN. • Join Mid-Ohio Region members on March 14 for a Trickle Charged Saturday at Kraftwerks in Marengo, OH • March 18 is Western Michigan Region’s March Dinner Drive at the Grattan Irish Pub • Allegheny Region’s Opera Night is March 21 • On March 28, Ohio Valley Region is hosting an Autocross Clinic at Porsche of the Village • Southeast Michigan Region is holding a Tech Session at Gilson Motorsports on March 28 I look forward to having the opportunity of meeting each and every one of you as I visit each region throughout the year. If you have any questions or comments please feel free to contact me at [email protected]. As I have previously stated, one of my goals has been for the regions to join together and work as one cohesive zone in order to provide our members with even more opportunities to enjoy our cars. To help further this goal, the Events page on the Zone 4 website will soon contain a master Zone 4 calendar. 19 Membership Brent Fagan · Membership Chair, OVR PCA End of January, 2015 OVR/PCA Membership Totals 20 Years – Joined March, 1995 Primary Members: 785 Edward B.
