There are currently five

lighthouses in the Sonnen-

schein area; Pensacola

Lighthouse, Middle Bay

and Sand Island Lighthous-

es near Mobile and Round

Island (Pascagoula) and

Biloxi Lighthouses in Mis-

sissippi. After the Missis-

sippi run last September,

Stormie and I participated

in Cruisin’ The Coast. The

twilight was extraordinary

when I took this picture of

her at the Pascagoula

Lighthouse.

Like most Sonnenschein

members, Stormie and I

hate accumulating miles on

the blue shield highway, so

whenever possible we seek

a two lane. Preferably these

roads are smooth, serpen-

tine and deserted, without

side streets, but that's be-

coming a bygone fantasy in

the Sunshine State. Floridi-

ans are fortunate however,

to have scenic coastal

drives to substitute for

deserted secondary roads.

Our coastal roads connect

ports, historic forts, beach-

es and piers, but I'm guided

toward the beams of light-

houses. Although they're

largely obsolete since the

advent of GPS, for thou-

sands of years they were

the standard for maritime

navigation. A lot of effort

has been expended to pre-

serve and protect them

because they're landmarks.

Many of them are the old-

est structures in their coun-

ties because they're built so

strongly to survive severe

weather.

I'm required to travel to the

Boca Raton area periodical-

ly, so I try to reward myself

with an excursion on the

return trip. The first time

was before I met Stormie

when, on a whim, I drove

from Tallahassee to Pen-

sacola by way of the four

panhandle lighthouses near

Apalachicola. Last March,

Stormie and I went up

Florida's East Coast on

Highway A1A to Werks

Reunion on Amelia Island,

including six lighthouses.

In December, we crossed

the Everglades on the Ta-

miami Trail and visited the

Gulf Coast lighthouses on

Sanibel and Gasparilla Is-

lands.

Sonnenschein held a a very pro-

ductive meeting on Jan. 11, 2019

and we were able to fill two

spots on the board: Newsletter

Editor - Amy Boring, and Treas-

urer - Lindy Kirkpatrick, who

has been treasurer for the region

in the past. Thank you both for

taking on those jobs.

One item discussed was the 2019

calendar of activities for the

region. That calendar will be out

shortly.

One of the big events this year is

the Porsche Parade in Boca Ra-

ton, FL, July 21 thru July 27.

The First sign up date is Feb 4th,

which is to get your room at the

Boca Grand. I am being told by

National that room rates will be

$140.00 to $200.00, which is a

deal at a 5 Star resort. The next

sign up will be April 15th for all

the dinners and events that you

want to do. Both these dates

and times will be in Panarama or

on the PCA.org web site.

We have about 7 folks headed to

the Rolex 24 at Daytona Interna-

tional Speedway. This the first

race of the year and it is a real

spectacle.

We have worked on our Auto-

cross Schedule and have added

two additional events at Pace

High school. These dates are

being finalized and will be put

out to the membership.

The Region is also looking to

have a group attend the Alabama

Grand Prix at Barber Motor-

sports Park in Leeds, AL. Kathy

Morey is taking the lead on this.

It is a great event at a beautiful

facility.

One thing to remember - events

like the Rolex and the Alabama

Grand Prix, as well as any track

event that you want to go to, you

have to plan sometimes months

in advance. We sign up for the

Rolex in Early June, 7 months

before the event.

Ben Powell, the region’s Ala-

bama representative, has a lot of

meetings planned for the third

Thursday of the month in the

Mobile and Baldwin County

area. We are a large area region

covering three states, and it is

difficult for all of us to attend all

the events around the zone.

As I mentioned earlier, we have

a new newsletter editor and we

need things sent in for articles

that she can put in the newslet-

ter. I know not everybody has

the ability to win a writing con-

test, but we can all do a little

write up and pictures of things

we have done with our Porsches.

We also have a New Porsche

Dealer in Mobile, Porsche Mo-

bile. Some of us have met with

the management and employees,

and I know that I am very im-

pressed. They want to support

the region anyway they can. So,

please try and support them and

let them know you are a Sonnen-

schein Region Member.

The Rolex 24 at Daytona is a racing event that every sports car nut should attend at least once. If you happen to take a non-sports-car-nut with you, they should bring a good book. Or, as my delightful spouse once said, “Other than being cold, noisy, and boring, it was a grand time.” With that out of the way, here is how the 2019 race unfolded. It is the season-opening race for the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship series, so competitors are eager to try their winter improvements, and fans are eager to see the season begin. There is lots of anticipa-tion on the track and in the stands. The race started Saturday after-noon at 2:45 and was scheduled to end 24 hours later (that did not happen this year). Qualifying was earlier in the week, with lesser races held Friday after-noon and Saturday morning. The 4-day admission ticket (Thursday-Sunday) for $100 is the best way to go. Sonnenschein usually has 6-7 members attend, some arriv-ing in luxurious style, as in our Region President’s motor home, and others arriving in more pe-destrian carriages (911, 968, 944, etc.) I departed Pensacola at 5 AM Friday and arrived at 1 PM local time to see the afternoon races and visit with PCA members in the Porsche Corral. Corral park-ing is a very good deal at $100 for the 4-day parking pass. It provides protected parking right next to the track, and adjacent to the PCA hospitality tent, which has big-screen TVs, water, and seating. Corral passes are hard to come by, and sell out within a few minutes of going on sale in June or July. Yes, you must buy it 8 months before the event.

Track events ended about 4 PM Friday, so I headed to my hotel for a good night’s rest before the big show. Saturday, I arrived in the Corral about 9 AM to hear the excellent speakers PCA has lined up, and then to wander the infield for several hours. I won a hot pit pass in the drawing, so at 2:30 Lisa Lewis, our Z12 rep, led six of us over to the hot pit area. We got special passes and head-sets with speakers, so we could hear our guides discussion above the noise. We got to stand next to the pit road wall and watched several pit stops from 10 feet away. Very nice! After 30 minutes we were led out and that ended our tour. After that, I caught the yellow tram to take me outside the track to the bleachers, where I climbed up many rows to have a great view of the race. Several hours later, I caught the same tram back to the infield, visited the hospitality tent for a little while, then headed to my hotel. Sunday morning, I was up early and got to the track at 6 AM so I could watch the race transition from night to day. Unfortunate-ly, it had been raining, and the race was yellow flagged for about 90 minutes. The track dryers were not making any pro-gress against the rain, so the race was red flagged and all racers parked along pit row and were covered with tarps. At 9 AM, with the track no drier than it had been when the red flag fell, they decided to go green flag racing. Visibility from the cock-pits was terrible, and after two laps there was a 3-4 car crash and the race was red flagged again. At this point, we spectators were wet and cold, and in light of the weather forecast had no hopes

for a dry track. After helping pack up much of the hospitality tent, I headed to my hotel to get dry and warm. There was some green flag rac-

ing later in the day, but the race

was finally called off a little be-

fore it had reached the 24-hour

mark. Sunday was disappointing,

but the 2019 Rolex 24 was still

worth attending.

A number of Sonnenschein

members attended the spring

DE sponsored by Alabama Re-

gion PCA in April, 2018.

I ended up taking my 1973 911T

because my Cayman was still in

the shop waiting for struts. The

old 911 is a lot of fun to drive,

and it was good to get it back

out and get her to stretch her

legs a little. I was able to get

three sessions in Saturday before

I had a problem. I was going

out for my last session on Satur-

day and the car would not start.

I checked a number of things

but still could not get it started.

Alabama Region puts on a great

buffet Saturday night and this

year it was Mexican, which was

really good.

Bob Langham was there with his

Cayman R, and Sunday he of-

fered to let me drive his car,

which I greatly appreciated. It

was nice to drive a Cayman,

since I had not driven mine in a

while. His car is very well pre-

pared with a PDK and larger

front brakes. I had one incident

in Bob’s car. There was a BMW

in front of me going into turn 5,

which is a left turn. There was a

large cloud of white smoke that

April 2018 Barber Motorsports Park

By: Wally Lindenmuth

2018 In Review

came from the BMW, which I took

to be Coolant all over the track. Well

seeing white smoke and being in

someone’s else’s car, I got off the gas

and got on the brakes carefully, so as

not to spin. The BMW had blown a

Radiator hose and dumped coolant

on the track.

Other than that little incident, I had

no problems with the car or the

track. I am use to slicks on my cars

and Bob has Pilot Sports installed. I

noticed toward the end of a session,

which are 20 to 25 minutes, that the

tires started getting what I call

“greasy” from being hot.

The 63rd Porsche Parade was

held in Lake of the Ozarks, Mis-

souri, July 8th to July 14th. We

had not been to a Parade for a

couple of years, and it had been

a lot of years since I had been to

Lake of the Ozarks. Parade

headquarters was the beautiful

Tan-Tar-A Resort. Mary and I

stayed at a Camp Ground not far

from the Resort.

We departed Milton in our mo-

torhome, with the car and trailer

in tow. We left on Friday and

spent the night just south of

Memphis, TN. After a good

night’s sleep, we were back on

the road early. Memphis can be

a little difficult to get through,

but we took I55 north and cut

off to take some nice roads thru

Arkansas. Northern Arkansas is

hilly, and it was two lane roads.

We thought things were going

fine until we got near Imboden,

Arkansas and I noticed that my

trailer was broken and almost to

the ground in the front. I found

a place to pull over and check

things out and realized I was in

trouble. We stopped at a gas

station, which had a little coffee

shop and I went in to talk to

some older, local gents to ask

where there was a welding shop.

With their help, I found Powell’s

Welding and Machine Works,

which was about 10 miles south

of where we were. I unloaded

the car from the trailer and

drove very slowly back down the

road to Mr. Powell’s. I was

lucky to make it back south to

Mr. Powell’s.

Mrs. Powell gave me a ride back

north to where I had left my

Cayman, and I brought it back to

their house where she let me

park the car in her garage. I

knew it was going to take a cou-

ple of days to fix the trailer, so

Mary and I headed north to Lake

of the Ozarks. I called some

friends to see if we could get a

ride to Parade headquarters the

next day and get registered. We

ended up staying the whole day

and attending the welcome Party

Sunday night. We had to catch a

cab back to the campground.

Monday night was the Presidents

Dinner, which I attended, and

the food was great. I was able to

get a ride back to our mo-

torhome with some friends.

Pete and Patsy were the other

Sonnenschein members that had

signed up, but they could not

make the trip. Patsy had injured

her back, and the Doctor didn’t

want her to ride the approxi-

mately 750 miles and reinjure her

back. Because we didn’t have a

car to get around, it was difficult.

I was able to catch a ride the

next day to the Parade Head-

quarters. We had heard from

Mr. Powell on Monday, and he

had my trailer repaired. I drove

the motorhome back down to

Imboden, Arkansas to pick up

my car and trailer on Tuesday,

which made for a long day. It

was approximately 250 miles one

way back to get the car and trail-

er.

Originally, I was scheduled to

run the Autocross on the second

day, but they changed the sched-

ule and I ended up running on

the first day. The autocross was

set up on the parking ramp of a

local airport. We staged and

were inspected on the parking

ramp. This parking ramp at the

airport was newly paved, and

with the temperatures reaching

over 100 degrees, the pavement

top layer was working loose. It

was a handful, but a nice course

and I ended up finishing second

in my class.

I had volunteered to work the

next day at the autocross and

was either going to work a cor-

ner or grid. They were looking

for a volunteer to work the main

entrance to the airport and to

direct folks to the grid and the

spectator area. It worked out

great because I got to be under a

large, live oak tree that made

plenty of shade. It was a lot

better than being out on the

ramp chasing cones.

I had signed up for the autocross

Banquet on Friday night, and I

was able to get an extra ticket for

Mary since she was not originally

going to be there. It was a great

night being able to pick up my

trophy for second place in my

class. I was also honored to pick

up the region Growth Trophy

on behalf of Puerto Rico, which

is in Zone 12.

Parade has all sorts of things

going on during the week, in-

cluding Concourse, TDS Rallys,

Gimmick Rally, Autocross,

Tours (a lot of tours), Art

Shows, Tech sessions, and the

opportunity to meet a lot of nice

Porsche people from all over the

country. I have seen people I

met at my first Parade in Key-

stone, Colorado.

I know South Florida is hot during

the summer, but so was Lake of the

Ozarks. I would sure like to see a

large turn out from Sonnenschein

Region attend Parade in Boca this

year.

The fall PCA DE at Road Atlan-

ta is an event I have tried to

make the last few years. The

weather is cooler, which is nice,

and a friend of mine from West

Virginia comes down to enjoy

this wonderful track. This track

is first on my list of challenging

road courses in the world.

This time, my group, which is

group three, had enhanced pass-

ing with a point by. Normally,

we can only pass with a point by

on the straights. This change

made it interesting to say the

least. Road Atlanta is a very fast

track where I can reach 140 or

more in my Cayman S on the

back straight, which makes com-

ing into turns 10A and 10B in-

teresting. You really have to get

on the brakes to make the left

hand 10A, then hard on the gas

thru 10B and under the Bridge

to turn 11 and the approximately

seven story drop into turn 12.

You have to set yourself up

properly going under the bridge

to make turn 12. I have learned

over the years how to take turn

12, but it is still hard to put my

foot all the way down going

down the hill.

As I said, my group had en-

hanced passing with a point by.

Well, I was behind a Boxster

coming down the hill and he

gave me a point by, and I said to

myself “here we go!” and made

the pass. I surprised myself with

how easy it was to make the

pass. Later in the day, I had

another point by coming down

the hill and took it again. Turn

twelve is off camber to the left,

so I have found that if you can

stay more to the right in passing

the two cars, you can take the

turn faster.

In my opinion, Road Atlanta is

one of the finest road courses in

the world. You come down the

front straight into turn one,

which is an uphill right turn. You

can take turn one fast in third

gear, then up the hill to turn 2

and 3 and 4. Turn 2 is a blind

left after coming up the hill, then

3 is a right turn, then 4 is off

camber to the left, and then right

into the esses . The esses are

taken flat out, then down shift

for turn 5, which is an uphill to

the left turn. Turn 5 has bitten a

lot of drivers as they get up on

the gators on the right, which are

painted and can be wet in the

morning from dew. Up the hill

and down a short straight to turn

6, which is an uphill right-hand

turn with an uphill short straight

to turn 7. Turn 7 is a right-hand

turn, which is flat, and drivers

tend to take this turn in a higher

gear than they should. Taking

turn 7 in a higher gear is a mis-

take; you can pull the corner in a

higher gear, but you need the punch

of the lower gear to get your speed

up going down the back straight

through turns 8 & 9, then downhill

to turns 10A and 10B. Then, it’s up

the hill under the bridge to turn 12

again.

Road Atlanta has a lot of elevation

changes, making the track more of a

challenge. If you get the chance, go

to Road Atlanta to watch a race like

the Mitti or Petit Le Mans, which

was taking place after this DE in mid

-October.

Oktoberfast 2018 is the PCA

Club Races held at Daytona

International Speedway on Oc-

tober 25 thru 28, 2018, and is

the last race of the year. It was

also the GT4 Club Sport East

Coast final race of the year.

I have been to Daytona for the

Rolex, but this was a lot differ-

ent. Spectators do not have to

pay to watch the races. This was

my first time to attend, but I felt

since I am the Treasurer for

Zone 12 that I should attend. I

am glad I did. It was a lot of fun

and I got to meet some real ded-

icated people who put on this

race, DE, and Autocross over

the four-day weekend. I was a

little concerned with how much

money the track rental cost for

the weekend, which was a lot.

Zone 12 received all the revenue

from race entries, DE entries,

garage rental, and camping.

For those that would like to try

the DE, you must be a Solo

Driver with a lot of track time

before they will let you enter.

Most of us have a certain

amount of camber put into our

cars to help turn on a normal

course. At Daytona, you take

most of the camber out because

of the banking high loads.

I drove down Wednesday night

and arrived early Thursday

morning. I had to wait a little

while before I got to go in, but it

was not too long. I am accus-

tomed to the Rolex, where there

are campers everywhere. I drove

my camper thru the tunnel and

there was no one in the infield. I

was told to go down near the

track hospital and there were

camping sites there. These are

the camping sites that are for the

NASCAR teams or Rolex teams.

They were concrete pads with

water and electric. Don’t I wish

I had that for the Rolex, but they

cost a lot more than what we pay

for our Rolex camping.

My job was to pay bills that were

given to me, and to keep track of

the six golf carts that the Zone

had rented. I was good with

that, except come Sunday after-

noon, I was one golf cart short,

which we did end up finding. It

was raining Thursday when the

events started off and everyone

wanted a garage, which helped

bring in more money.

People like to drive Daytona, so

we had them coming from all

over the east coast and Canada.

I had one Canadian check, and

because of the exchange rates

when I originally deposited it in

the bank, we didn’t get the cor-

rect US amount. The bank later

found out it was written in US

Dollars and credited the zone’s

account. To rent Daytona

Speedway for four days is

$95,000.00, plus, per the con-

tract, we had to give them half

of our profits, which were an-

other $14,555.00. Keeping track

of all that money was very nerve

racking. I think I got a few more

gray hairs.

Next year, put this event on your

list of things to do. It is Free to

spectate!

Keith and I had spent several days

before Christmas in 2012 visiting

family in Tennessee. We headed

back south to Pensacola, FL on

Christmas Eve, but we only made it

from Oak Ridge to Chattanooga

before it became obvious that some-

thing was wrong.

It started with a high-pitched

squeal, and then puffs of smoke

bellowing behind us. With that sink-

ing feeling of dread, Keith took the

next exit and stopped in an empty

church parking lot. In the meantime,

he had me using my phone to look

up the symptoms. Based on my

Google prowess, a problem with the

air/oil separator seemed to be the

likely culprit.

Since it was Christmas Eve, we

thought for sure that all the business-

es would be closed, and we’d end up

having to call family from Clinton

(just north of Knoxville) to come

and pick us up, and probably not

make it back to Pensacola for Christ-

mas. However, luck, and excellent

Porsche customer service, was on

our side.

The service department of Porsche

of Chattanooga was closed, but we

got in touch with the show room just

before they were ready to close. One

of the salesmen was able to set us up

with a tow truck and an Enterprise

rental car, and had us back on the

road within 1 hour. In addition, he

had everything set up for the service

department to check out the Cayman

as soon as they reopened after

Christmas.

We made a trip back up to Chatta-

nooga several days later to pick up

the car. The problem did turn out to

be a failed air/oil separator.

We are very appreciative of the great

service we received from Porsche of

Chattanooga. Thanks to them, we

made it back to Pensacola for Christ-

• To enjoy and share good will and fellowship engendered by owning a Porsche

• To establish mutually beneficial relationships with Porsche owners, affiliates, dealers and our sponsors

• To exchange ideas with other Porsche Regions and Zones
