December 2017 Trivia Question Winner

Bob Walker won a Porsche Drivers’ Selection T-Shirt

by answering:

Question:

Porsche dallied with 4 door sedans before the

Panamera. For instance, they designed the 4-door

Type 542 Studebaker (air cooled V-6)

Between 1990 and 1995, Porsche did design work,

modified, and assembled a high performance 4 door

sedan for another marque at the Rössle-Bau facility

near Stuttgart that built 959s until 1989. What was

that marque?

Hint:

Porsche got bodies in the white, stiffened them, then

shipped them back to that marque’s nearby factory

for painting. The painted bodies came back to

Porsche for final assembly.

Lawsuit against San Diego

From The San Diego Reader, by Dorian Hargrove, June 7, 2017

In March of 2017, Jon Warshawsky sued the City of San Diego for improper design of the center median

and failure to maintain it.

According to public documents obtained by the Reader, the median was the cause of at least one other

accident prior to the collision and the subject of numerous complaints — one of which came from the

San Diego Police Department — for poor visibility in months preceding the death of Walzer.

THIS Saturday, 30 December 2017, Horseless Carriage

Club 62nd Annual Holiday Motor Excursion

This should be a massive gathering of a couple hundred really early cars

(authentic 1932 or older vehicles only5) with display parking for newer classics

(like classic Porsches). They just ask that the brass era cars6 be the focus for

tour.

It will be 7:00 AM to 11:00 AM at Santa Anita Racetrack (Gate 6). Check their

ad on page 32.

A San Gabriel Valley Region member who’s also a Horseless Carriage Club

member mentioned that the Holiday Motor Excursion is on public roads so

no one can prevent you from following. If you should, remember two things:

The Horseless Carriages are the stars of this show

It’s not just Model Ts: many of these cars7 are easily capable of freeway speeds but they have

horrible brakes. Do not pull in front of one of them unless you plan to heroically sacrifice your

modern car to help the horseless carriage stop safely.

THIS Sunday, 31 December 2017, Rose Parade Route

Another get together forms up at the shopping center at S Michillinda Ave & E Foothill Blvd, East

Pasadena, CA 91107 about 7:00 to 8:00 AM then leaves to cover the Rose Parade Route at 10:00 AM.

5 A Mercedes-Benz SSK would be eligible. It was designed by Professor Porsche but only 40 were built. 6 The Brass Era ran from 1890 or 1896 up through 1919. The Excursion is open to cars up through 1932. 7 The Three Ps (Packard, Peerless, & Pierce Arrow), Cadillacs, Rolls Royces, Bentleys, Lincoln’s etc.

New Years Day Los Angeles

I have HEARD that some car enthusiasts will be meeting on New Years Day in the parking lots at both In/Out Burger and Denny's on Sand Canyon , right off the 14 fwy at 7:30 am.

I guess there will be a drive from there through the canyons and eventually end up in Montrose on Honolulu ave where there are a bunch of restaurants.

Hope to see you there to wish you a Happy New Year

A Space-X Falcon 9 launced ten satellites for the Iridium comsat constellation on schedule (01:27:23 UTC

on the 23rd 5:27:23 p.m. PST on the 22nd). The launch was visible throughout the Los Angeles area.

This launch was shortly after sunset so the ground was dark but the booster flew into sunlight.

As seen in San Dimas, CA

The iPhone didn't find much to focus on so the photo's a bit fuzzy. The top bright blob on the left is the

moon. The lower left bright blob (at the apex of the "V") is the upper stage carrying the payload south.

To the right of the upper stage blob is the first stage powering itself back to earth although Space-X

doesn't plan to use it a third time.

The "white tornado" on the right is the trail where the upper stage separated and the first stage turned

around.
