The Friction Circle

by John Brandt, President

It has been quite a run the last few weeks with DE, Autocross, One thing new that came up at the board meeting is the and social events. Our “MORPCAPLATZ” club tent at the announcement of the Rahal car show at Easton on wed Aug 1st Grand-Am was well received and all who came were impressed which is the week of the big ALMS and Indy doubleheader at by how much access we get at the races. We were treated to Mid-Ohio... This show is for the benefit of the Buckeye Ranch garage tours from both the Rum-Bum team who switched to which is a local organization that serves troubled youths. The Porsche from BMW this year, and the Brumos operation whose show is going to be really interesting- Expect to see only the drivers Andrew Davis and Leh Keen treated our group like old most highly significant and collectible racing and sports cars. friends. Many of our troops got to go for rides in the BMW Our guests, Roy Rushing, gave us a glimpse of a few of the performance school cars for a drifting exhibition lap- What cars in the show, and let’s just say it was remarkable how many a wild ride! Every turn the car is completely sideways! I had cars in the semi-local area have Le Mans history. This event doubts they would stay on the pavement but all did! as mentioned is the Wednesday of the Race so the drivers can attend. A second MORPCAPLATZ is likely in store at the Nelson Ledges was exciting, too (and for a few of us, too track since Porsche Cars NA seems not to be inclined to host exciting). We had three perfect days of track driving and PORSCHEPLATZ. I think we can handle it just fine on our own socializing. Porsche of Beachwood provided a fantastic catered though! meal for all the participants. The weekend turnout was the best-ever, and it was great to see so many under a big tent at the Between all of the fun this spring and summer, I’ve managed track. Everybody got home safely from Nelson, but one of our to squeeze in some extra fun at the Kart racing track down in members brought home 98% of a foul-mouthed parrot. Circleville with my son, Willy. We go there on non racing days for fun and seat time. On our third trip or so, he talked me into If you have not signed up to attend P2O this year in Granville, renting a kart so that we could run together. I figured it would make sure that you get on with it and go! This year’s P2O is be educational for him as a “lead-follow” exercise....Well, guess going to be a winner! We are already on track for a record who got the education? Simply put, he just drove away from event and the town of Granville will be a super location. The me. Yes, there a big disparity in weight, and he has a better Kart, layout is going to be a bit more compact than it was in Oxford but Willy has absorbed a lot of theory and clearly knows how to which we think will make the party even more festive. The host execute it. I appreciated that he was nice enough several times hotel is the Cherry Valley lodge, which is big enough to house to slow down and let the old-timer catch up. It is an intense practically everyone who comes, and this year we have shuttle experience and you need to be thinking way, way ahead to keep service to and from the event site courtesy of Byers, so you up with what’s happening. No wonder so many pro drivers run can get back and forth from the party in town as you wish- or karts to keep themselves in tune. Try it sometime- seriously. perhaps allow a significant other to sleep in and arrive in town after a leisurely morning of swimming or, golf. As you can see, things have definitely Heated Up! So make plans to come out for some MORPCA activities....See you out there! Our Club Race and Driver’s Ed is also coming up soon so make I’ll try to bring the parrot to something during my 2% of the plans to get to the track August 17th through 19th. The DE is year. primarily for advanced drivers, but we are still hoping to find a way to include an intermediate skill, instructed group in the mix to allow more of our local club people to have access to this prime weekend. More details on that later...

Annual Putnam Park Driver Education: July 7 – 8, 2012

The Mid-Ohio Region (MORPCA) is hosting its annual driver education (DE) event at Putnam Park Road Course, Mt. Meridian, Indiana. MORPCA was one of the first clubs to hold a driver education at Putnam Park.

This year we will have plenty of track time, if necessary we will purchase extra track time to give you the best value in a DE. Track will go hot at 8am instead of 9am. Putnam is a favorite among racers as well as beginning drivers. The 1.8 mile long, ten turn road course is an excellent layout. It makes for a terrific place to begin your high performance driving experience or continue with skill refinement. Our two day event will include extensive track time as well as class room instruction. PCA instructors will be assigned to each driver. Dan Clarke, a professional Indy driver, will return again this year to offer personal one- on-one instruction.

We will also offer touring laps at lunch on both Saturday and Sunday. For about 20 minutes you can go out on the track at touring lap speeds (never exceeding normal highway speeds). You can practice your line, locate landmarks for braking, turn in points, etc. and best of all you can take your family along. Yes, children can go too as long as they wear proper restraints. No helmets, just seat belts.

Again this year, we will use www.clubregistration.net for student and instructor registration. Please note that instructors must be a current MORPCA approved instructor to sign up, if you have questions please contact the Chief Driving Instructor, Jeff West at [email protected] .

Need more information about our DE? Go to www.morpca.org or contact us:
