It’s great to be back! Back driving a Porsche again. Wahoo!!! So here’s the story

for those of you who don’t know me. A few years ago - I can’t believe it’s been that long already - I had to sell my prized Guards Red 1991 Porsche C2 due to personal, life changing events. It was a tough decision

but was required at the time. Even though I was going through rough times, I knew things would eventually improve, and I would own another Porsche again someday.

!at day has "nally come and it sure is great to be back. !is de"nitely proves that when the chips are down, keep a positive

The President’s ColumnDoreen Pankow

From The Editor’s DeskMike Pomerantz

In this month’s issue on page 28 you will "nd the region’s Balance Sheet

as of 12/31/2012. Our club continues to enjoy a strong "nancial position while providing a wide array of services and activities to its members.

During the month of January, 13 new members joined our region including six transfers in from other regions. At the end of

January, our membership stood at 711 primary members. In 2012, our membership remained relatively #at at about 696 members, so I’m delighted to see this increase of 15 members in January.

So why was membership #at last year? 113 new members joined our region in 2012 including 37 transfers in from other regions, but 112 members did not renew their membership. !us we lost as many members as we gained.

All of us also play a signi"cant role in a$ecting member retention. !ink back to when you were a new member and the "rst time you came to one of the SBR monthly membership breakfasts. Did you feel welcome? Were you introduced as a new member? Were you given a list of activities and encouraged to come to an event?

How warmly we greet new and prospective members does make a di$erence whether they return to another meeting or go to an event. We "nd that once a new member has attended an event and experiences the thrill of driving with 30-40 other Porsches on some fun back roads and enjoys the camaraderie at the lunch, they are usually hooked. So please take a few minutes at our breakfast meetings and events to welcome new and prospective members.

We also know that members personally recruited by other club members tend to participate more and thus remain members in our car club. Each of us has the ability to recruit new members by encouraging our friends and colleagues to join PCA if they already own a Porsche or are thinking of buying one.

I also want to encourage all our members with Cayennes and Panameras to participate in our monthly drives and events. We hope you don’t feel reluctant to go on the driving tours. I know you’ll also get a lot of enjoyment driving the back roads with all the other members driving other models of Porsches. So please join us on our drives!

Speaking of events, the 2013 California Festival of Speed is being held at the Auto Club Speedway in Fontana from April 5th through the 7th. !is year, both PCA and POC will be driving competitively at the Festival for the "rst time, so this event is expected to be the biggest Porsche event in the Southwest. !ey will also be featuring a Concours d’Elegance on Saturday, a Swap Meet both Saturday and Sunday and an area to park Porsches for sale. You can experience a taste of the Autocross on a mini track with your car and then drive on the big Fontana Speedway track over the lunchtime. !ere will also be a special display of “Fi%y Years of 911” on Saturday, April 6th. So if you have a 911 that you would like to display, please contact Bruce Herrington at: [email protected]

Volunteers are needed on all three days to help with registration, direct tra&c and parking, sta$ the hospitality tent and Goodie Store, and serve as corner workers, timers, announcers and runners. You can even be right out there with the Porsches on pit lane and direct them as they start the race and enter and exit pit lane throughout the entire race. If you’d like to help as a volunteer, please contact Mike Hodson at [email protected] or Laura Manz at [email protected] to "nd out more about the various positions. Volunteers also get free event parking.

Admission is FREE and there is only a $10 parking fee if you’re not a volunteer. So let’s show our support by attending this great event!

attitude, keep working through things, even if just chipping away at it, and eventually things will get better.

I’m now the proud owner of a 2002 Carrera, Orient Red Metallic with Black interior, 6 speed, and fully loaded. It’s an awesome car, and I had a blast on its "rst drive to the Palms restaurant. See event story on page 16.

During the period without a Porsche, I maintained my membership and want to thank the close friends who let me ride/drive with them, and Walt at SBAG for arranging the weekend with a 2013 Boxster S in Paso Robles for member test drives. (!at was a great date for the weekend, ha-ha!)

Since there hasn’t been much response to my Membership Gallery idea, I will start things o$ with my own car in this new section. Please submit your photos and captions for future issues. Send your high resolution photos to [email protected].

I’m looking forward to many future club events driving the new car, and meeting many new members along the way. See you down the road!

Camarillo Breakfast

Cancelled Breakfast Still A Great SuccessSTORY BY CAROLYN EWBANK, PHOTOS BY HENRY VALDEZ

February 2, 2013

We had received an e-mail from the President, Doreen Pankow, that the breakfast was cancelled due to a water line

break in the lawn area of the Waypoint Café, and since the patio couldn’t accommodate the 100+ members that usually attend, there would be no club meeting. However, we were in the mood for breakfast, so we headed to the Waypoint Café anyway.

Under cloudy skies, about 50 Santa Barbara Region members braved the trip to the Waypoint Café. !ere were about 25 Porsches parked in front of the restaurant, as the parking on the tarmac was o" limits to cars and people because of the broken pipe. Since the Waypoint did not want anyone walking on the grass, the patio area was partially full with SBA-PCA members as were several booths inside.

Of the many Porsches parked in the front lot, there were a red 959 and a white GT2 RS.

Members who attended enjoyed having breakfast and a great time talking cars as usual. !ere was no o#cial meeting, but a good time was enjoyed by all. =

Tony Hart’s beautiful 959.

Santa Barbara Breakfast

STORY & PHOTOS BY MIKE POMERANTZ

A Special Day for The Special Olympics

February 9, 2013

Say hello to Ellen & Eric Kramer of Oxnard in their 2013 Boxster.

It was another gorgeous day in Santa Barbara, not a cloud to be found in the sky. A#er all in attendance had a chance to have breakfast and socialize, President Doreen Pankow started

the meeting by welcoming eveyone. She displayed the PCA Zone 8 Region of the Year trophy for 2012, and thanked the members and sponsors for organizing, serving as volunteers, and participating in all our activities this past year. If you haven’t seen the trophy yet, check it out on page 25.

Membership Chair Sue Kinsling gave us the attendance $gures for the day: 44 members and guests, driving 29 Porsches. She also introduced new members Ellen & Eric Kramer from Oxnard driving a 2013 Boxster, and Greg Simpson from Goleta with a 2008 Boxster (up for sale) and a 2011 Carrera GTS.

Activities Chair Barry Weinstein reminded everyone of the upcoming events and urged those who haven’t signed up for the March 16, 2013 Fillmore Murder Mystery Train Excursion to get their reservations in right away since the event is expected to sell out.

Also, ladies are invited to attend the March 30th Porsche Madamoiselle Society event at the Huntington Library and Botanical Gardens to enjoy a docent led tour, lunch and high tea. See the %ier in this issue. Also promoted was the Festival of Speed event April 5-7 at the Auto Club Speedway in Fontana.

Doreen proceeded to present Sara Spataro, Regional Director

Say hi to Greg Simpson of Goleta in his 2011 Carrera GTS and inquire about his 2008 Boxster for sale.

Oscar Briones’ 2001 Carrera 4 leads the lineup.

On Thursday, January 17, 2013 eighteen members of R.U.F. in ten Porsches met in Ventura to commence our !rst R.U.F. trip of the new year. Our destination was Goleta,

home of the Coronado Butter"y Preserve, to view the beautiful Monarchs who overwinter in the eucalyptus trees on Ellwood Mesa.

But !rst we needed a little drive time in our wonderful cars, so we left the highway at Carpinteria to traverse beautiful California highway 192 across Carpinteria, Montecito, Santa Barbara and Goleta.

We were blessed with beautiful clear weather with glorious views of the ocean and the Channel Islands as we approached our exit in Carpinteria. The next hour was spent winding through the foothills with views of beautiful homes, orange groves and quaint Montecito Village. We were able to travel the entire distance to the butter"y grove without returning to the

highway and were able to get some pleasurable twists and turns along the way.

R.U.F. GETS BUTTERFLIESSTORY BY JEANNE MCNAIR, EVENT PHOTOS BY DICK LANGE

We were joined by four more R.U.F. members when we entered the Grove and met up with our docent, Lynn Kirby. We walked for ten minutes to a viewing area in a clearing in the grove and were privileged to see a "ock of butter"ies engaged in “puddling”. Large numbers gathered on the ground in front of us and our docent explained that this behavior allows them to derive moisture and nutrients from the ground. Because of the recent cold weather the butter"ies hadn’t been observed doing this yet -- the warm day had worked to our bene!t as well as the butter"ies’! Lynn explained that this behavior is often brief and we were lucky to observe it.

We all settled onto large tree trunks in the clearing to listen to a fascinating talk by Lynn. The butter"ies that come to this location do so every year between November and February, and they always migrate from the same location in the Southern Rockies.

Lynn demonstrated how butter"ies are attracted to sweet and salty nutrients with the help of R.U.F. member Debi Howarth. Lynn took a newly hatched Monarch and placed it on Debi’s hand where it remained for several seconds until Lynn removed it. She explained the butter"y was drawing nutrients, such as salt, from Debi’s skin. It was a beautiful demonstration, and Debi seemed to enjoy helping in the presentation. As we sat in the grove, with sunlight !ltering through the trees, there were hundreds of butter"ies "ying above. It was quite magical to observe. Lynn also told us that this year’s population is approximately 22,000 down from over 50,000 last year.

After a walk to the blu# overlooking the ocean, we returned to our cars for a short drive to the Beachside Café in Goleta for a group lunch. The food was great, and we enjoyed visiting with friends and discussing what we had learned about the beautiful Monarch butter"y. Another fun driving outing with R.U.F. and a chance to see another beautiful attraction in the Santa Barbara Region. =

Scenic Drive To The Palms RestaurantIn Carpinteria

Over 100 members of the PCA Santa Barbara Region on February 16 in 50-plus Porsches snaked their way along 70 miles of some of most beautiful back roads of

Santa Rosa Valley, around the hairpin curves of Grimes Canyon to Santa Paula, along the Santa Paula / Ojai Road to Ojai, and over the sweeping curves of beautiful Hwy 150 around scenic Lake Casitas, to the small beach town of Carpinteria, where we stopped for dinner at the 120-year-old Palms restaurant.

It was a beautiful, warm and sunny Saturday afternoon when our 50 or so vehicles arrived in town and pretty much occupied every piece of available parking on Linden Ave, where the Palms has been welcoming guests for over a century.

This is not your everyday “sit down and be served your dinner” restaurant. No, here you cook your own entrée on huge grills they provide for the guests. You enjoy not only a great and inexpensive meal, but also get the opportunity to bathe in the fun and adventure of being your own restaurant chef. The Palms opened early for our group, and our members !lled every table in the place.

STORY BY STEVE KALLEREVENT PHOTOS BY NICK LIAKAS AND DICK LANGE

The Palms Restaurant was originally built as The White Sulphur Hotel in 1887, which included the town bank and post o"ce. Located only a few blocks from the train station, it became both a beach destination in itself as well as a “stopping o#” place for those traveling along the Southern California coast.

In 1958, August and Beata Anderson (former owners of the Montecito Inn) opened the restaurant, and in 1968, Kenneth and Sue Anderson bought the restaurant from their parents, installed two 36” grills, with gas !red lava rocks, and invited guests to test their cooking skills by cooking their own meals. Today, Bill and Todd Bennett continue their family’s commitment to great quality and reasonable prices. Everyone who visits enjoys preparing their own meals, all the while laughing and socializing with other restaurant guests around the grill.

Joining us for this !rst one-day driving event of 2013, enjoying the beautiful drive, and meeting, socializing and delighting in the great camaraderie of the people in our club, was a whole host of new members, many of whom you’ll recognize as new friends in the pictures accompanying this story.

The exhaust note of a Porsche is one of its signature attributes...

The Tech Page

While mulling over possible subjects for this month’s technical column, the title of this publication

caught my eye. As many of you know, Der Auspu! is German for “the exhaust,” and given the number of inquiries I receive about a"ermarket performance exhaust systems, it seemed to be the perfect subject. #e exhaust note of a Porsche is one of its signature attributes, whether it be the rhythmic thrum of a 356 or the high-pitched wail of a 911. I will brie$y explain the function of an automotive exhaust system, highlight design considerations that go into the factory Porsche systems, and discuss the merits and drawbacks of the myriad a"ermarket exhaust systems available for Stuttgart’s %nest.

#e basic function of the exhaust system of an automobile is well known: it carries burned exhaust gases that are expelled by each cylinder away from the passenger compartment. It is important for these gases to exit away from the car due to poisonous carbon monoxide being a byproduct of internal combustion. #e exhaust system on road cars also includes one or more mu&ers to help reduce the noise level created by the engine. Anyone who has been to a car race is well aware of how loud an engine with open exhaust can be.

#e exhaust system of all Porsches from the mid-1970s onward also contains some form of exhaust a"er-treatment to reduce the amount of pollutants released into the atmosphere. Porsche used hugely restrictive thermal reactors at %rst, but installed catalytic converters in all U.S.-bound cars by the late 1970s. Catalytic converters contain catalyst materials (usually precious metals like platinum

and rhodium) that convert smog-forming pollutants like carbon monoxide and unburned fuel vapors into less harmful oxygen, water, and carbon dioxide.

Catalyst-equipped Porsches also have oxygen sensors installed in the exhaust to monitor engine running conditions and ensure proper catalytic converter function. If the engine is running too rich or too lean, the oxygen sensor provides feedback to the engine control unit, which in turn adjusts the fuel mixture to allow for more complete combustion. #rough 1995, only a single oxygen sensor was required, but federal regulations required the catalytic converter of all model year 1996 and later cars sold in the U.S. to be monitored by a second oxygen sensor downstream of the catalytic converter. All current Porsche models feature a total of four oxygen sensors, as

each cylinder bank has a dedicated catalytic converter.

I o"en receive inquiries from customers about a"ermarket exhaust systems for their modern Porsches and how much of a power gain can be expected. My answer in most cases is “not much,” at least in modern normally-aspirated, non-Turbo models. When Porsche began installing thermal reactors and catalytic converters in the mid-1970s U.S. cars, the exhaust systems were extremely restrictive. A signi%cant amount of horsepower can be freed up by installing early style heat exchangers or headers on a 1974-1989 911, albeit at the expensive of legality. Removing emissions equipment violates California and federal law, and the engine will never pass the tailpipe emissions check during a smog test. However, by the 1990s Porsche was designing much less restrictive original equipment exhaust systems that are more di'cult to improve upon.

It is o"en said that an internal combustion engine is a fancy air pump: the more e'ciently air is able to move in and out, the more power it will make. #is is largely true, but by that notion performance engines should all have exhaust pipes 5 inches in diameter to expel the exhaust gases as quickly as possible! In reality, all engines require a certain amount of exhaust restriction (referred to as backpressure) to keep the combustion chambers of each cylinder warm enough to allow for complete combustion. Of course, too much backpressure will result in restriction at higher RPM, so a balance must be achieved.

Countless man-hours are spent by Porsche on the design of modern exhaust systems. #e high speci%c power output of the latest engines requires an extremely e'cient exhaust system to extract maximum power while concurrently meeting the latest emissions laws and noise requirements. Careful tuning of the size and shape of the exhaust manifold or “header” pipes enables them to literally extract the burnt exhaust gases from the cylinders rather than merely allowing them to evacuate. A cursory glance at the beautiful headers of the MA1 $at-six engine (used in the 2009 and newer 987/997 and 981/991 sports cars) reveals that Porsche’s engineers did not leave much on the table in terms of power gains to be realized from changing the exhaust to an a"ermarket system.

Nonetheless, Porsche does make some compromises in its production exhaust systems, mainly due to noise and cost concerns. #ere are a number of enthusiasts who feel that factory Porsche exhaust notes are not purposeful enough and seek a more aggressive tone. Porsche partially recti%ed this with an optional sports exhaust system introduced on the 997 series 911s. #ese systems use vacuum operated valves that open secondary $aps in the exhaust system and allow for a much louder exhaust note and greater $ow at wide throttle openings and at higher RPM. #e beauty of this system is that a relatively tame exhaust tone occurs at idle and lower RPM (perfect for sneaking into your neighborhood), but a more aggressive tone is as near as pushing a button on the dash or opening the throttle.

PORSCHE EXHAUST SYSTEMSBY CHRIS ANDROPOULOS


Chris Andropoulos is the Service Manager and a technician at Schneider Autohaus in Santa Barbara (a Der Auspu! advertiser). Chris is a lifelong Porsche “nut” and is fascinated with and knowledgeable about all Porsches, from 356s to the latest GT3s. When he’s not racing his daily-driven 944 Turbo at PCA and POC track events, he can be found enjoying the beaches, ocean, and mountains of beautiful Santa Barbara.

For the record, it is legal in California to replace any component of the exhaust a!er the catalytic converter on any 1976 or later car, hence the term “cat-back exhaust”. It is not legal to install performance headers on a smog controlled car, even if the catalytic converters are intact. It should be noted that the catalytic converters are built into the exhaust manifolds/headers of most post-2000 Porsches anyway.

"ere are numerous a!ermarket exhaust systems available for Porsches, almost all of which claim to increase exhaust #ow and horsepower. Many also brag of high quality stainless steel construction and weight savings, and there are even exotic titanium systems available. "e prices range from suspiciously inexpensive Ebay units to outrageous in the case of some boutique systems. I will not use this column to endorse or condemn any speci$c exhaust systems, but I would advise

anyone shopping for such a system to be aware that quality and $t can vary widely. "e main di%erence the average owner will notice between the factory and a!ermarket exhaust systems will be the exhaust note. Many exhaust manufacturers have videos or sound clips of their exhaust systems available on the internet, in addition to the multitude of owners who have uploaded the same to YouTube. Of course, exhaust tone quality is extremely subjective, and some exhaust systems that sound wonderful at wide open throttle can drone incessantly at freeway cruising speed. "e bottom line is to do your homework when shopping for an a!ermarket exhaust system for your Porsche!

Turbocharged Porsches will realize greater power gains from a freer #owing exhaust system than their naturally aspirated counterparts. Because turbochargers are mounted in the exhaust

stream, the turbos themselves provide more than enough backpressure to ensure complete cylinder $lling at lower RPM. Removing any other restrictions in the exhaust system a!er the turbochargers will help them spool up quicker and increase horsepower.

For this very reason, there are numerous a!ermarket high-#ow catalytic converters available for late model Porsche Turbo vehicles. "ey will certainly increase #ow and horsepower on turbocharged engines, but are almost certainly not emission legal in California unless they have a documented CARB (California Air Resources Board) exemption number. Even if they are legal, a!ermarket catalytic converters tend to not be as high in quality as the factory items and the “check engine” light will o!en illuminate a few years a!er installation because of catalyst degradation. "ere are a!ermarket so!ware programs available that can fool the engine computer into ignoring the downstream oxygen sensor signals that monitor the catalytic converter, but this is also illegal and will be caught during a smog test when the car is connected to the state computer via the diagnostic port.

Whether your Porsche proudly wears its original exhaust system or sports a #ashy high performance system, you can be assured the when you put your foot down, the sound it makes will be music to your ears! =

Porsche o%ered no water cooled engines for most of the $rst three decades of its existence. "e simplicity of air-cooled engines may be a virtue, but the lack of warm liquid coolant #owing through a heater core in the dash means that providing heat for occupant comfort and window defrosting is a challenge. Like their Volkswagen forebears, Porsche’s air cooled engines use metal shrouds around the exhaust manifolds to capture heat from the exhaust system and route it to the passenger compartment through tubes built into the chassis. "is form of exhaust manifold is also known as a heat exchanger.

"e 356 and early 911 heater controls consist of a knob or levers attached to cables that operate simple #aps to control heated air#ow to the interior. "ese early systems are dependent upon the engine cooling fan to push the heated air into the interior, and consequently heating output is dependent upon engine speed. To say that the heating output of these systems is mediocre is putting it lightly. "e air-cooled heating systems gradually improved in the mid-1970s 911s and 914s with the installation of electric fan motors in engine compartments and passenger compartments to move heating air through dash mounted vents. By the 1980s, a thorough perusal of the owner’s manual was required for the uninitiated to properly operate the 911s Rube Goldberg-like system of levers and cables that activated the climate control system.

A major concern of the oldest air-cooled Porsche exhaust/heating systems is rust. "e shrouds of the heat exchangers around the exhaust manifolds can hold moisture, and the resultant rust can rot away the exhaust manifold pipes. "e danger of poisonous carbon monoxide leaking into the heater pipes and passenger compartment is real, so if you smell exhaust fumes inside the interior of your classic Porsche or notice excessive rust on the heat exchangers, deal with it immediately! "e heater tubes of many old 356s and 911s have been blocked o% for this reason. "e heater box #aps can also rust open or closed and cause constant heated air into the interior of the complete lack thereof.

The Zone 8 Page

A very important part of our annual Zone 8 Banquet is our tradition

of recognizing the best of the best for the year. For 2012, Zone 8 Enthusiast of the Year went to Suesan Way of Grand Prix Region, who seems to be everywhere all at once. Whether it is something for her region, the Festival of Speed, the national Parade, the upcoming Escape or

anything I happen to need assistance with, she can be counted on. Please also join me in congratulating Santa Barbara Region,

the Zone 8 Region of the Year. Santa Barbara had a terri!c 2012 with a wide variety and a large number of quality events which speak highly of the health of the region. I know they are especially proud of hosting the Street Survival School for young drivers. Both Suesan and SBR are very deserving of these honors!

Speaking of volunteers, I’m looking for one. "e Zone could use a social media expert. Facebook, Google+, Twitter, YouTube, forums and blogs; these are the modern means of communication, but it is too much for me to handle by myself. If you have expertise in these areas, the time to lend a hand, and an interest in joining the Zone sta#, please let me know: [email protected]

"e o$cial 2012 Club Racing results have been released. If you recall, new for 2012, PCA held its !rst club racing points series, with both national and Zone competitions. "e Zone results are now posted on our web site at: http://zone8.pca.org/results_cr.php

As you read this, the 2013 series is o# and running elsewhere around the country, and our !rst event here in Zone 8 is coming up very quickly.

Which leads me to my next topic: traditionally our California Festival of Speed is the !rst Zone 8 club race of the year, and this year is no di#erent. Mark your calendars for the !rst weekend of April (5-7). Now in its twel%h year, this one will be bigger and better than ever. A%er a few years’ absence we are seeing the return of the POC to our event, along with the Pirelli GT3 Cup, which will make for an incredible weekend of racing.

Beyond the racing, our volunteer team is working hard this year to make this “festival” of all things Porsche bigger and better than it has ever been before. More vendors; more taste of autocross; more track tours; the return of the swap meet; cars for sale; driving skills simulators; 50 years of 911 display; Concours d’Elegance; in short, more of everything Porsche. "is is a Porsche Enthusiast’s dream weekend, not to be missed!

Naturally it takes an army to run an event of this size, and we are always looking for volunteers, as many hands make light work. If helping out is something you would enjoy, please contact our volunteer chair at: [email protected]

As usual, if you are not racing, admission is free with only our standard $10 parking fee. But wait, there’s more! We have a special o#er for you. Visit our website and you can download a free parking coupon. Be there, there is no excuse for missing this event!

Our website is http://www.calfestival.org and there you can !nd more information; check out the list of vendors that will be showcasing their automotive products on our vendor row, and !nd that free parking coupon. You can also email us for information at: [email protected]

Don’t forget, there will be door prizes for all attendees and people’s choice awards for the Porsches in the corral. Bring your Porsche! Bring your friends! April 5-7, at the Autoclub Speedway in Fontana, CA. =
