4 November 2009 Meet The Candidates for the 2010 MORPCA Board

David Hayden Candidate for President

David joined MORPCA in 2002, but his heart has been there since the late ‘60s. Before becoming the president in 2007, he was the treasurer for three years. During the six years as a Board member he has gained both a broad and detailed knowledge of the operation of the club: how to work together (the Board) as a team; and most importantly, he has made many new friends and acquain¬tances. He also serves on a school board and has been president or vice-president on many of his 22 years of service and is quite familiar with the details of running meetings, making agendas, working with committees, etc. David and his wife, Marsha, are very active members participating in most of the social and driving events. David has worked and/or participated in most driving events during the last seven years including Hot Pit Coordinator for the Club Race, chairperson for the Putnam Park DE (four years), and road tours. David also participates in car shows including P2O, Arthritis Foundation, and the annual Porsche Parade. If elected, his promise to champion changes only when needed will continue. David’s vision for the club remains the same: the club is there to meet the needs of all members. His goal for 2010 is to implement regular technical sessions for the members.

John Brandt Candidate for Vice President

A lifelong fan of the marque, John got his first Porsche, a ‘71-911E Targa, in the summer of 1996 and immediately joined Mid Ohio Region PCA. A 944 followed shortly thereafter and he started going to track events at that point. That led to the white ‘84 Carrera track car that is familiar to the club. Having had lots of great coaching from PCA instructors he aspired to join their ranks and is a PCA nationally certified driver’s education instructor. He is involved with several PCA regions’ DE programs, most notably in MORPCA. John acted on the club race committee as enduro chair for the last two years. He has volunteered on the DE tech inspection crew for a number of years, and served as event Co-Chair for the 2009 advanced driver’s ed event. John is a graduate of Ohio U. and works as a mortgage loan officer. He and his wife Erin have one son, William, who is 8 and a regular at Mid-Ohio. Erin especially enjoys going to social events like the holiday party, chili cookoff and pig roast. We will try to get her to the polar bear trap shoot this year! “MORPCA has been great to me. We truly have a special group of people; That’s why I am excited at the opportunity to take on a greater role. If elected, I promise to give my full attention and do my best to serve the needs and wishes of all the interests of our club.” 5 MORPCA Monthly Board Meeting Minutes September 9, 2009 Submitted by Betsy MacDonell, Secretary Members Present: Dave Hayden, Ron Thom- Mike will work with Frank on trying to get as, Karen Koehler, Jay Koehler, Milton Scott, most of our deposit from Bluegrass back since Brad Shisler, Mike Stoner, Frank Todaro, the track was never viable.

The most accurate way is to that the actual fly-wheel HP is at least what the measure the fly-wheel HP of the engine on an advertised HP figures are. What if you own an accurate engine dyno and the wheel HP with earlier model car or are adding a performance a dyno and then subtract one from the upgrade to the engine; how do you know what other. You will then have the power loss of the HP your engine is producing? Let’s look at a drive-train. There is no exact way of finding few ways of determining those figures. the actual drive-train loss just by measuring the HP at the wheels alone.

All mechanical systems suffer from friction loss. Power fed from the engine through the If you want to know the fly-wheel horsepower car’s drive system will be reduced by friction of an engine, then you will either have to and converted into heat before it ever reaches estimate it or pull the engine out of the car and the wheels.

You can make a reasonable calculation of the Now that you know how to determine your engine’s HP (on a car equipped with a manual car’s HP, what actually is a Chassis Dyno or a transmission) fairly accurately by using some Rolling Road and how does it work? The car simple calculations. The average rear-wheel is driven onto the rolling road so the wheels drive street car (with between 100-200HP) will are resting between two large steel rollers. lose about 17% of the engine’s fly-wheel HP The torque is measured at different speeds through drive-train losses. Porsches lose (from in exactly the same way that an engine dyno the fly-wheel to the drive wheels) somewhere works. The only difference is that the torque between 12-18% depending upon specific is measured at the drive wheels rather than at models and the age of the vehicle. Using 15% the fly-wheel. A braking load is then applied as a general rule correlates very closely to the to the rollers by using either a hydraulic or actual factory figures. Four-wheel drive cars an electric drag system. A universal equation will have higher losses because of the extra can then be used to calculate the HP at the differentials and other power train components tires. Most types of Chassis Dynos measure involved in their four-wheel drive system. A torque; the HP is then calculated from the reasonable estimate for a four-wheel drive car formula BHP (brake horse power) = torque will show a loss of approximately 20-25% of (ft/lb) x RPM/5252. This basic equation is the its fly-wheel horsepower before reaching the foundation for all engine design, development drive wheels (newer four-wheel drive systems and tuning of modern cars. Since a Chassis will lose less HP because of a more advanced Dyno measures power at the drive wheels, this design). avoids the inconvenience of having to remove Therefore, taking the HP reading from a chassis the engine to test its HP. However, it means dyno and dividing it by .85 for a rear-wheel that the power figures obtained will be lower 25 (continued on page 26) Drive-Train Power Loss smooth steel rollers which over time get quite (continued from page 25) polished. The effects of tire slip are complex than the fly-wheel HP because of the frictional and you can get some unreliable HP figures losses in the drive-train. This leads to one of from highly tuned engines. the biggest sources of confusion, error and plain misinformation in the tuning industry Another variable that can affect results is today. engine cooling. If there isn’t a large volume of cool air being supplied to the radiators, engine compartment and air intake system, there can be a considerable variance in the HP numbers from one dyno run to the next. This is espe- cially important for turbocharged engines since the innercoolers need large amounts of air to cool the charged air fed into the engine. When making a dyno run, other considerations that need to be taken into account are having tires Two of the main methods for measuring HP with the same diameter and tire pressure, that are used in the automotive industry are ambient temperature, humidity and barometric measurements taken from the fly-wheel of the pressure to help eliminate potential variables. engine or the measurement taken at the drive It becomes all too clear, that choosing a dyno wheels. However, all major manufacturers use operator who understands the complexities of “fly-wheel HP” to determine and quote their obtaining accurate figures, is of critical impor- HP figures. It is understandable that people tance. When it comes to engine performance who modify their engines with performance upgrades or trying to determine the HP of an upgrades, want to know if their recently spent older Porsche, you have two choices. Either cash has actually increased their engine’s HP- trust the supplier of the modification or builder -and by how much. To know for certain if an of the engine, or you will need to do multiple engine modification has worked, requires a dyno runs before and after any modification to before and after dynamometer run to see if see if the work done has actually lived up to its the performance upgrade has lived up to its claims. claimed increase in performance. There is enormous pressure on chassis dyno operators to be able to quote fly-wheel HP rather than HP at the wheels. Most operators now run proprietary software systems which supposedly print out fly-wheel HP figures. These software systems are useful for estimating the power upgrades against the actual factory figures. One of the problems with all dyno testing can be tire slip.
