Editorial

Dear Porsche Club Presidents,Dear Porsche Club Members,

24-hour event after an absorbing race.Experiences gained at this event will nowflow back into further development of ourracing and on-road vehicles.

As you can see, motor racing is not just ahobby and a passion for us; it representsan important opportunity to test new tech-nologies and make them suitable for theroad. So enjoy your vehicle, whether youuse it on the road in day-to-day driving oron the racetrack at weekends. I amcertain that you will see that we havestayed true to our fundamentals, namelyto build top-quality sports cars.

Once again, a number of interesting andexciting months have passed by: Anyonewho has been keeping up with the pressrecently could easily come to the conclu-sion that Porsche has lost focus on what’simportant – namely its products. Let meassure you that this is not the case andthat we are working hard at being able tobring you exciting and aesthetic vehiclesin the future as well.

In times such as these, the positives areall the more important – and the intro-duction of the Panamera most certainlycounts as one of these. Although thevehicle has only just been presented, wehave already received extremely encour-aging feedback worldwide.

There’s nothing better for a developmentteam than when an idea that they havespent years developing, refining andbringing into serial production receivespraise from a wide spectrum of the pub-lic. Many of the solutions that you will findin the Panamera were initially marked byconflicting goals. As is often the case, weat Porsche wanted to bring together fea-tures in this vehicle that were previouslyconsidered to be irreconcilable.

The decisive task for our developers wasto marry the sporty features typical ofPorsche with the spaciousness and ridequality of a luxury limousine to create aunique Gran Turismo. The Panamera wasto• have the silhouette of a coupé, but at

the same time offer four full-size seats, a generous, variable interior and plenty of space for a range of luggage

• set the standard for performance in its segment, but also have the lowest consumption amongst the competition

• offer driving dynamics typical of Porsche as well as the ride quality of a luxury limousine

• have a driver's seat typical of a sports car, but also a luxury interior in premium quality and with segment-specific equipment features.

But it’s precisely these challenges thatevoke the greatest drive in Porsche engi-neers. Technical innovations such as us-ing Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK), wellknown in the sports cars, in combinationwith a start/stop system or the newPorsche Active Suspension Management(PASM), adaptive air suspension, haveprovided answers to these questions –answers that are not simply a lazy com-promise, but define what is technicallypossible. And a few weeks ago we wereonce again able to demonstrate that thePanamera is a thoroughbred Porsche, de-spite the comfort requirements, when Ihad the unique opportunity to drive the in-troductory lap at the Hockenheimringahead of the season’s starting line-up atthe German Carrera Cup. Both the driversand the teams, as well as the spectatorswere impressed by our “new arrival”.

This brings me to the second new mem-ber of our product range, the new GT3and the new GT3 RSR. These two new ve-hicles clearly demonstrate once again thestrength of the mutually beneficial rela-tionship between motor sport and roadvehicles at Porsche. For example, our ex-periences in motor sport enabled us touse detailed aerodynamic modificationsto sustainably increase output on both thefront and back axles of the GT3 on-roadsports car to such an extent that thesurface pressure is twice that of the pre-decessor model. Our ability to constantlyrefine and successfully continue develop-ment based on our insight was demon-strated again just recently: The customerteam Manthey Racing – bolstered by ourfactory drivers – was able to celebrate afourth straight victory at the Nürburgring

Timo Bernhard (Germany), Marc Lieb(Germany), Romain Dumas (France) andMarcel Tiemann (Monaco) crossed thefinish line in the 480 hp Porsche 911GT3 RSR of the Manthey Racing teamwith a one lap advantage over the sec-ond-placed Audi R8. The sister MantheyPorsche, the 445 hp 911 GT3 Cup Smanned by Richard Lietz (Austria), WolfHenzler (Germany), Emmanuel Collard(France) and Dirk Werner (Germany),occupied third position. Seven Porscherace cars finished in the top ten.

A total of 235,000 spectators wit-nessed the fastest 24 hour race in his-tory on the Nürburgring. Clocking up3,933 kilometres, the Manthey Racingsquad improved on its own distancerecord from 2006 by a further 101 kilo-metres. Timo Bernhard and Marcel Tie-mann are the first pilots to win the longdistance classic four times in succes-sion. All in all, Tiemann has climbed tothe top of the podium five times, mak-ing him the most successful pilot of the24 hour race.

Already in the early stages, the raceturned into a thriller. For almost onehour, Marc Lieb followed in the slip-stream of the pole-setting Ford GTdriven by Dirk Adorf. Only when theFord spun after lapping a slower vehicleand fell back, did Lieb get a free run.Until the early morning hours, the win-

ner of last year was entangled in a grip-ping duel with the fastest of the Audis.As the regulations allow the more pow-erful R8 LMS a 20-litre larger fuel tank,the Audi could turn out one more lapper tank. “To counteract this we had totake more risks and turn one qualifyinglap after the other to stay in the lead,”says Timo Bernhard, describing hismost gruelling 24 hour race to date. “Itwas only when the Audi experiencedtechnical problems that we could take ita little more carefully during the lasthours,” added Marc Lieb. For RomainDumas, the most decisive factor in therace was: “All of us were able to main-tain this unbelievable pace and not oneof us made the slightest error.” For Mar-cel Tiemann, a dream came true: “Wewrote motorsport history today. To winthis race four times in a row with thisteam and now become the driver withthe most victories here, that means agreat deal to me.”

For team boss Olaf Manthey, the fourthconsecutive win was the best: “I’m in-

credibly proud of my entire team andmy drivers. I couldn’t imagine a betterline-up than Timo, Marc, Romain andMarcel. But that said, Richard, Wolf,Emmanuel and Dirk also delivered a su-per performance with our 911 GT3 CupS. It’s just a shame that changing thedrive shaft cost us 24 minutes. Other-wise we could have brought home adouble win today.”

Another impressive demonstration ofthe renowned reliability of the Porsche911 was shown by the squad underUwe Alzen (Germany). Sharing drivingduties with his all German line up,Sascha Bert, Lance David Arnold andChristopher Mies, they brought homefourth place with their 420 hp 911 GT3Cup, which is raced in 13 Porschebrand trophy series around the world.

Head of Porsche Motorsport, HartmutKristen, was impressed with the consis-tently good performance of thePorsche teams: “Our customers ranthree different current Porsche racingmodels at this race: the 911 GT3 RSR,the 911 GT3 Cup S and the 911 GT3Cup. All three were equally fast and reli-able. There is hardly a more impressiveway to show that the Porsche 911 isstill the best sports car in the world.Congratulations to Manthey Racing andall the other Porsche teams who did agreat job in their respective classes.Despite the new tank regulations,clearly disadvantaging the Porscheteams, the Manthey squad could stillbring home their fourth straight win.Still, that shouldn’t conceal the fact thatthe regulations should be corrected.The efficient vehicles should not be theones that spend the most time refu-elling in the pits.”

The largest gathering of the Euro-pean Porsche 356 Club scene tookplace this year from 21st – 24th ofMay in Montreux, Switzerland.

This year’s venue was rather special, asPorsche and Switzerland have alwayshad strong ties in the past, mainly be-cause a fledgling Porsche companylearnt the ropes in the ’50s as a resultof a bulk order by two Swiss firms. Inaddition, the first Porsche 356 was pre-sented to the world exactly 60 yearsago, again in Switzerland, at theGeneva Salon. Proof of the continuedexistence of this firm tie can be seen inthe exhibition by Porsche Switzerlandof a number of new Porsche vehicles(including the new Porsche CayenneDiesel) in the hotel park of the FairmontPalace Hotel – an exhibition that sur-prised the newcomers.

More than 200 superbly maintainedPorsche 356s from 22 countries fol-lowed the path to the sophisticatedbathing resort on Lake Geneva andtackled remote Swiss mountain andserpentine courses in the days that fol-lowed. The programme contained a va-riety of interesting items: After anevening reception in one of the loungesof the noble Palace Hotel the teams setoff the next day on a famous mountainrace stretch between Sierre and Mon-tana, which was used over 40 yearsago by the Porsche factory racing caras a playground for innumerable victo-ries in the European Mountain Champi-onships. The day’s programme wasconcluded by a steamship cruise on thebeautiful Lake Geneva, along its fa-mous banks dominated by castles.

The next day also saw the participantstaking on historically significant terrain,this time the mountain racing stretch

between Ollon and Villars, which intimes past held such importance in thechampionship races that a Porsche908 mountain racing vehicle was pre-pared specifically for this race and wasdubbed “Ollon-Villars”. The 34th Inter-

national Porsche 356 Meeting endedwith the traditional “Porsche Night” inthe ballroom of the Palace Hotel. In ad-dition to the winners of the Concoursd’Elégance and the photo rally, themany participants from foreign coun-

Porsche Sports CupDeutschland Nürburgring25th–26th of April 2009

It was the perfect start for the PorscheSports Cup (PSC) 2009. There werelarge numbers of participants in allclasses and the weather gods lookedkindly on us in the Eifel region. Bothdays were dry and were marked bypleasant temperatures.

GT3 Cup ChallengeFirst up was the German Porsche GT3Cup Challenge. The GT3 Cup Challengeforms the ideal bond between produc-tion cars and the Carrera Cup. 20Porsche 997 GT3 Cup, including 16cars from 2009 were at the lights. Thestart was decisive – Swen Dolenc fromMaulbronn accelerated from the sec-ond row a fraction quicker than StefanWendt (Papenburg) in pole position andtook over the lead, which he maintained

throughout the race, despite severepressure from Wendt. “I was really fo-cused and hardly made any mistakes. Ialso had a little more luck lapping otherdrivers”, enthused the winner. DanielDobitsch from South Tyrol finished inthird place.

Porsche Sports CupWe also had a premiere in the SportsCup – both races ended with triple winsfor the Porsche 997 GT2 for the firsttime. Julian Dercks from Giesendorfwon both rounds, holding off ThomasFlügel from Oldenburg in the one andGünther Brenner from Kirchheim in theother. Flügel’s Porsche debut was par-ticularly impressive. He originallycomes from a motorcycle racing back-ground and said: “This was a great de-but for me in the Porsche Sports Cup.But I just couldn't catch Julian!”

Porsche can be extremely proud that inthese difficult times the starting gridwas full in all classes; a great successindeed! A total of 225 participants reg-istered for the start of the PorscheSports Cup 2009 at Nürburgring. Thesporting achievements were top classand the inaugural GT3 Cup Challengecertainly lived up to its initial promise.

In short, the perfect start to the sea-son!

Porsche Sports Cup Suisse –“Wet Race” in Hockenheim 17th – 18th of April 2009

The start of the set six laps of thePorsche Sports Cup Suisse and thePorsche Drivers Challenge in Hocken-heim, Germany presented a specialchallenge. Incessant rain demandedeverything from the motivated driversand kept the adrenaline levels at maxi-mum. Lap times of just over two min-utes made for high tension as early asthe practice rounds, because the line-up for the Sports Cup was not only of ahigh standard, but was relativelyclosely matched when measured bytime differences.

Jean-Paul von Burg in his 997 GT3 Cuptook full advantage of his pole positionand remained in front until the end. Hisfaultless display meant that his two ri-vals Manuel Nicolaidis and PatrickSchmalz had to be satisfied with sec-ond and third place.

Despite the rain, this was a successfulstart to the season, in a motor sportcategory that continues to grow in pop-ularity.

Porsche Francorchamps Days isconsidered to be one of the mostimportant events for all passionatePorsche drivers and fans, and iscertainly one of the most signifi-cant events of its kind in Europe.

Porsche and Spa: a perfect combina-tion, together with remarkable organi-sation; a three-day event at whichPorsche enthusiasts and their vehicles,of all models and years, were able todiscover the demanding racing courseat Spa-Francorchamps. In total, over500 drivers participated in the drivingprogramme, of whom 70% werePorsche Club members.

We can also be proud of the followingnumbers: Over 100 997 GT3 models(street version), seven 997 GT2, 14 ve-hicles from the 997 GT3 Cup, 21Porsche 996 GT3 Cups, 26 Porsche997 GT3 RS, 25 Porsche 964 RS (RS,NGT & Cup), one Porsche 910 and fourvehicles from the 914-6 series tookpart in the three categories – fun, sportand racing. A total of 475 Porsche vehi-cles were on display at the traditional“Jean-Charles Cartier” parade on theSpa course – an amazing spectacle.

In addition to the race track pro-gramme, a tourist rally through the Bel-gian Ardennes was also held. In thisevent, the participants were required todrive a defined course based on theroad book, and to answer various gen-eral knowledge questions. A definitehighlight here was the visit to a Belgianchocolatier, who gave a live demonstra-tion of making pralines to the partici-pants. As part of this year’s rally, allthree officially recognised BelgianPorsche Clubs were involved. This wasindeed a wonderful example of suc-cessful cooperation!

The Porsche marque was also pre-sented in a professional manner at theevent. New vehicles were displayed inthe Porsche brand environment and in-terested parties had the opportunity toget extensive information and adviceabout the scope for personalisation ofPorsche vehicles in the Exclusive FittingLounge. The brand environment wasrounded off with the presentation andsale of both accessory brands,Porsche Design and Porsche DesignDriver’s Selection.

The event was an unqualified success,not least because of the excellent col-laboration between the Porsche ClubFrancorchamps and the importerD’leteren.

The Porsche Cayenne is a versatile performer – on every type of terrain. The more the driver demands from the car, the more it’s in its element. Thanks to the Michelin Latitude series, the same applies for the tyres. For the new

Porsche Cayenne, Michelin has developed some new tyres with modest rolling resistance and therefore better fuel economy without any compromise in the performances. This is the reason why it can bear the N-designation – the

sign of Porsche quality.

Porsche Club Sverige Festival 2009 from 21st to 24th of May 2009 in Växjö, SwedenThe premier of our festival was asuccess! For many years we have held our annual “Clubmeeting” during this time.However, the feedback from ourmembers was that “it was tooboring”. As a result, we decided to try something new!

The focal point of the festival was thehistoric square in the centre of Växjö.The city kindly granted us permission topark our Porsches on the square. Theevent hotel, the “Elite Stadshotellet” islocated directly on the square andplayed host to most of the 220 partici-pants. This ensured a magnificent viewof the parked vehicles! We are particu-larly pleased that we successfully in-cluded the Swedish importer and thePorsche Centre Kalmar in the event.The Swedish importer exhibited aCayenne Transsyberia and the localPorsche Centre in Kalmar answeredparticipants’ questions on Porsche ve-hicles and service.

The festival offered a wide range of ac-tivities to choose from, some of whichtook place in parallel. A particular high-light was the Concours d’Elégance. The

jury were entrusted with evaluating 16“beautiful” vehicles and the eventualwinner was a 911 S, build year 1971, inamazing condition. The rally, which wasalso enthusiastically received, offeredan opportunity to view spectacularglass blowers forming red-hot glassinto fragile crystal bowls. Memberswho wanted to test their Porsche to thelimit had the chance to drive the Super-stage Course, a racing track also usedfor comparison drives by the Swedishcar magazine “Bilsport”.

The three best Concours vehicles weredisplayed in the lobby area directly nextto the gala dinner venue. This providedan extra special atmosphere. The nextmorning, we drove to the former UråsaAir Field to hold our traditional slalomchampionships. The end of the day sawwinners in the men’s and women’s cate-gories and in the Standard and Racingclasses. After our Sunday brunch, wetravelled back in the direction of home– dreaming of next year’s festival.Please be sure to note down the dates13th to 16th of May 2010, in your di-aries, as you’re all invited to Sweden!

Gala dinner

Special parking permission for Porsche in the centre of Växjö

Crossing borders and experiencingPorsche together with Central Eu-ropean neighbours while pittingoneself against other Club collea-gues in a sporting competition –this was the basic idea behind theCross Border Rally that took placefrom 18th–19th of April 2009, inthe form of a collaborative projectbetween the Porsche Club Slovenijaand the Porsche Club Steiermark.

Weeks and weeks of intensive prepara-tion were required on the part of the or-ganisation team prior to the event toget the new Cross Border Rally projectgoing. This included measuring a vastnumber of track sections, planningtimekeeping stations, lap checks andan autocross, selecting restaurantsand hotels, requesting approvals andcompiling the programme for two daysof Porsche fun.

The rally kicked off on the 18th of Aprilat the Porsche Centre Maribor in Slove-nia. which was the meeting point for the57 diverse teams that were to make upthe field. Participating Porsche mem-

bers from the Porsche Clubs Slovenija,Steiermark, Panonnia and Kärnten linedthe start with a multitude of vehicles.Collaboration with the importer and thePorsche Centre afforded some partici-pating Club members the incredible op-portunity of test-driving the new 911 gen-eration with PDK during the rally.

The sound of the starting gun in Mariborled the participants across the border toAustria to explore the beautiful Styrianlandscape. After three nail-biting spe-cial tests and many a charming countryroad it was time for lunch at Radkes-burg. This was followed by a tough testthat the teams had to pass and sometruly persuasive powers on their returnto Slovenia when they had to convincethe “strict” border official to allow themto cross back over the border again.Some kilometres and a few tasks later,the participants reached Ptuj, one ofthe oldest styria towns. After an inter-esting guided tour of the town, it wastime for a delicious supper.

Needless to say, besides food andsplendid Ptuj wines enjoyed by all, this

was a good opportunity to meet newpeople and make new friends.

The next morning, the 57 teams wereescorted to a kart track near Ptuj by po-lice vehicles. The track visit took theform of a charity drive, after which thePorsche drivers had the chance to letloose all the horsepower of theirPorsches. The event culminated in thecommunal lunch in Ptuj, followed by theaward ceremony and the prize giving.The winners of the competition camefrom Slovenia and Austria, althougheverybody was in agreement as to thetrue winners: the collaborative effortacross borders and our friendships –friendships that we will nurture and de-velop even further.

Porsche Club Ireland

Welcomed in Stuttgart as one of the first Porsche Clubs in2009: Porsche Factory visit and the Porsche Museum

Arriving at the factory, I think some ofthe Porsche staff thought it was theIrish rugby team visiting rather than abusload of wide eyed Porsche fanaticswho with every turn sought a glimpse ofsome prototype model, or even aPanamera! The factory tour highlightedto all, no matter how long or involvedtheir association with the marque, thata Porsche is still very much a hand-builtcar. Seeing 911’s and Boxsters moveslowly along the production line withskilled operatives fitting many partsfrom dashboards to engines by man-power rather than robots had us dou-bling our respect for the brand by theminute. It is also immediately obviousthat though Porsche has grown, for the

Sitting at the departure gate in Dublin airport I like others searched thecrowd trying to identify a Porsche Club Ireland member. Is he one? Whatdoes a Porsche driver look like anyway? We need not have worried asalong came Neil with a box full of “Grand Slam” luminous green rugby jer-seys emblazoned with “Porsche Club Ireland Factory Tour”. Identity crisisresolved. Those brave enough, naturally led by Dave donned theirs imme-diately, others chose to wait until Stuttgart.

most part these cars are really not massproduced, with completely different trimlevels, colours and engines being fittedon the one line. On average, it takes twodays to build a car – very slow by to-day’s standards – and some ten hoursfrom a painted shell to a finished car.Quality and attention to detail are thewatchwords here. The factory visit istruly amazing, very informative, evenawe inspiring and to those that havenever been, well put it on your list … now!

Porsche hosted a memorable night outin that night, where fine food, goodwine and great company made for a su-perb evening. The next day we all gath-ered for a quick bite in the Porsche Mu-

seum Café selecting things like a“Boxster burger” anticipation grew as,with our appetites whetted from the fac-tory tour, we could not wait to see themuseum. Apart from being an architec-tural masterpiece, its contents, some80 perfectly turned out cars, are justastounding. With some 400 cars attheir disposal, all of which are in fullworking order, the museum is alwayschanging – a great reason to re-visit.

Across the road from the museum wasthe largest Porsche dealership most ofus had ever seen. With the superb mu-seum tour over, we descended on thedealership like a plague of locusts, likekids in a sweet shop each and everyonedarted around gazing in admiration atthe huge stock of shiny new Porsche’swith a huge variety of models, there reallywas “one for everybody in the audience”.

Austria has eight official Porsche Clubswith around 800 members and an um-brella organisation with coordinationfunctions. All Clubs were invited by us in2007 to attend a joint event platformfor the Porsche Parade Europe.

Team building and structureAs a Porsche Parade Europe requiresmore than just hard work, namely alsogreat financial input with correspondingrisks, it was mainly the larger Clubs thatwere prepared to participate. Alongwith the umbrella organisation PorscheClub Austrian Association, the organis-ers of the Porsche Parade Europe2010 are consequently the Porsche

The absolute highlight of all Porsche Club events is the Porsche Parade Europe that takes place every two years,in a different country each time. The Porsche Clubs and Club Coordination in Stuttgart were unanimous in selec-ting Austria for the 2010 Parade. Please read on to find out more about the fascinating progression of the pro-ject around this massive event.

Porsche Club Verband Österreich is delighted to be able to host visitors to the event in 2010; bookings can be made from the1st of September 2009.

Classic Club Austria and the PorscheClubs Wien, Tirol and Steiermark (act-ing as an organisers’ association).

Rough planning of Parade 2010During the buildup to the Parade Eu-rope 2008 in Sardinia, the projectgroup, made up of one representative

from each Club, met regularly todiscuss the guidelines for the entireproject.

Our basic ideaWe would like our international gueststo experience the best of Austria andits Porsche Club life. For this reason, a

decision was taken in principle to allowVienna to host the next Parade. We thendiscussed issues of financial policy,principles of responsibility and thesetup of an event homepage(www.porscheparade.at). This was fol-lowed by determining the maximumnumber of teams and the packageprice, development of the event designand, above all, the search for one eventhotel for all participants, if possible.

After the Parade in Sardinia right up tothe spring of 2009, potential pro-gramme ideas were collected and dis-cussed by the team. These were thensplit into subprojects and the finer de-tails of the programme were finalised.An extremely important task was towork out the highlights, such as the in-clusion of the Wachau World HeritageSite on the day of the drive and theGumpoldskirchen vineyards for thesecond evening, as well as programme

items in Vienna, more specifically the“Prater”, “Ringstrassen” and “Schön-brunn Palace”.

Implementation of details and final phaseWhen this issue of Club News 03/09is published, we will be in the finalpreparation phase: The organisationteam will be occupied with detailssuch as approvals, bookings, menus,public relations, advertising media,translations into four languages, Clubcontacts and much more. Findingsponsors in the current economic cli-mate is proving to be quite a chal-lenge, but an event of this magnitudeis unfortunately not possible withouttheir assistance; all in all an extremelyexciting time for all involved.
