First and foremost, I want to congratulate Clutch Chatter and our outgoing editor Cindy Hylton for receiving a second place award at the National Convention. I am sure that Cindy was very proud to leave her position as editor in such good shape. The real pressure is now on Matt. (GRIN)

The planning has continued and the infrastructure for 2001 as well as the points rules are reviewed and in place. So what does this all mean to me you ask? Well, what I hope this means is that we are trying to plan early and execute perfectly. The last board meeting was fairly entertaining in terms of trying to make decisions that have a positive impact on this year. I am hopeful that we can have a great year that provides every member with a sense of pride. In terms of additional commitments, we do still plan on providing some support for other motorsports activities.

We have agreed to provide corner workers for a BMW school in November. This event will be utilized to pay for some of the overhead expenditures that we will encounter this year. Despite a continual financial downslide, we still need to update some of our equipment. This event, as well as the Vintage Grand Prix, will help a great deal in covering these expenses. I would encourage very member to come out and work these events. This sort of outside activity is a great way of trying other activities with little pressure.

I know that I keep writing about our financial problems, but it is important that everybody understand that they exist and that this board is committed to rectifying them. Sure, we are not for profit but a little surplus is required of we are going to survive.

I hope that the whole region is excited and ready for this year. Please come out and take part in the greatest member run motorsports organization in the world.

See you all somewhere

2001 Convention. Those of you who know me, know that I am not a great optimist nor am I a natural born cheerleader. However, I have to say that I came away from the 2001 SCCA National Convention feeling really pumped up about our club and our future. By almost everyone’s assessment, this convention was the best in a long time. There were a number of interesting seminars, there was a lot of valuable training, and there were some really good presentations. Plus, there was a tremendous spirit and enthusiasm about our club. Everyone was excited about meeting our new President, Steve Johnson and the energy that he exhibits seems to infect the whole crowd. If you missed it, you missed a good one.

Staff Reorganization. For those of you who haven’t heard, the leadership of our National Staff has been shuffled. All the same faces are there, but the roles have changed. In recognition of the increased responsibility and expertise that they have in their areas, Patc Henry, Tasha Goodale and Kurt Spitzner have been given the positions of Director of Club Racing Programs, Director of Solo/Road Rally Programs and Director of Performance Rally Programs, respectively. Howard Duncan will be using his strategic planning skills in the position of Director of Program Development, working with all three of the other Directors. With their increased responsibilities, they will now report directly to President Steve Johnson, as will Vice President Dennis Dean who will be in charge of overall business development. Dee Ann Knudsen continues as Vice President of Finance and Brenda Winters continues to oversee membership and licensing as Manager of Marketing Services. A new Sales and Marketing wing is being created to take advantage of Mr. Johnson’s skills in that area. Sue Roethel (Member Services), Doug Reed (Sponsor Marketing), and Nancy McMaster (Corporate Services) will be part of this organization.

Finances. When Treasurer Tom Campbell gave this year’s Financial Report, it looked a lot rosier than last year, thank goodness. A year ago the big concern was the $800,000 that had to be pulled from the club treasury to cover losses at SCCA Pro Racing. Thanks to the major overhaul that the Board of Directors instituted last spring in Pro, this year they are projected to turn a $150,000 profit. While it will take a long time to regenerate the lost cash, the path ahead of us is similar to the one which Enterprises faced after their restructuring during my previous term on the BoD, and it has been a success. Speaking of Enterprises, that operation is projected to end the year with a $300,000 profit. As for the club portion of SCCA, we had hoped for a break-even year, but circumstances have brought that down to a loss of around $100,000 based on our actual operations. This will be offset by the fact that we must book some of the surplus from the sale of our building in this year, so we will actually show a profit even though our operations lost $100,000.

Success Stories. I’d like to touch on a couple of success stories. Obviously SCCA Enterprises continues to be a success story, consistently turning a profit now and paying down its debts. The reorganization of SCCA Pro Racing and the leasing agreement for Trans-Am with the Panoz-Sanchez Group is another. Performance Rally is another huge success story. Five years ago this program was on the verge of being eliminated due to financial and organizational problems, insurance issues, and lack of growth in both entries and sponsorship. Today the program is one of our shining stars. The organizational problems have been eliminated, the program has greater exposure than ever before, including a new TV package with multiple sponsors. Entries are up significantly and some events are being forced to institute entry limits. What a fantastic change this has been and what an exciting future there is for this program. Another success story I want to touch on is that of our friend Paul Pfanner. Paul began as an SCCA regional newsletter editor and grew his involvement in publishing into the Pfanner Communications business which has produced SportsCar magazine for us for a number of years. Paul grew the business more and launched Racer magazine and the associated businesses. The company, now called Racer Communications, has just announced that they have been acquired by Haymarket, the United Kingdom’s largest independent publisher. Although they have a fully diverse portfolio, motor racing has always been the backbone of Haymarket’s business, and Racer fits in well with this. Haymarket has acquired a 51% majority in Racer Communications and Paul Pfanner remains involved as the creative guidance in the organization. Congratulations Paul, working with you has been great for both organizations.

Insurance. Here’s a bit of advance warning for you. A year ago we changed the way Club Racing event premiums were calculated, by eliminating the "cap" that limited how much premium large events paid. This was countered by a reduction in the per car rate. We are seriously looking at doing this same thing in rally and solo next year. Also, although provisions for "piggybacking" of events (running two events concurrently at a reduced premium) are no longer in the insurance manual, you may still do this as before. However, we are looking seriously at eliminating this for 2002.

Nearly two dozen Indy Region SCCA members and guests made the trip through the country Saturday, February 24^th to PRP Speed Shops in Bainbridge for the Inaugural Dyno Day Activity.

14 car owners took advantage of a great deal. For a crisp $20 bill, they got three consecutive runs on the DynoJet. Normal dyno time at PRP costs $75 for the same service and $125 per hour if you want to tweak, adjust and modify your car between runs. That's still a good price, compared to other shops with dynos, around town.

John Jennings, Darryl Didier and Tim Jennings, from Jennings Motorsports, brought one of their Formula Mazda racers out for display in the PRP showroom. Tim, the 2000 CENDIV Formula Mazda National Champion, will make his Star Formula Mazda-North American Championship debut March 4^th at Texas Motor Speedway. Watch for the race on Speedvision in the coming weeks.

The activity day began in the PRP showroom with introductions and followed with a shop tour by owners Rodney Fenwick and John Bachman. Once inside the machine shop, engine builder Kyle Clearwaters took over with machine-work explanations and answered engine-building questions. He was also available all afternoon, answering questions from those with an interest.

The group proceeded to the "Set-up" room, where the scales are located, then moved on to the dyno. Fenwick gave his explanation of how the dyno works and explained the benefits of using a chassis dyno to get the most out of your vehicle, backing his statements with examples.

Drivers had the option of operating their own car on the dyno or having one of the PRP staff members run it. Due to the sensitivity of the dyno's execution, most opted to let PRP handle the duties.

As car owners signed up to run, a handful of spectators looked on as Guy Dingman's white '96 Nissan was strapped down by Fenwick's son's, Glenn and Phillip. Before his run, Guy estimated 120hp, but was surprised when his bone-stock 240 turned in a 130hp result on his second run.

Second up was the first of three in the Mazda rotary brigade. Advanced Import Motorsports' own Paul D'Angelo wouldn't elaborate on his car's modifications, but his "Not Stock", black '91 RX-7 posted 156.3hp, well above the standard factory output.

The only tragedy of the day happened next, as the highly modified, ground-effect shod, gold '88 RX-7 of Carlos Santos was on its third run and suddenly overheated. The result was a collapsed upper hose, starved water pump and blown motor, with only 3,000 miles. Shane Benson and John Repollet, from AIM, were on hand with their initial diagnosis of a failed apex seal. An obviously unhappy Carlos said, "I've spent so much money on this car lately. It's my only transportation. I guess you could say Carlos is carless." The Jennings Motorsports crew had room in their trailer, so they graciously hauled the wounded warrior back to AIM, on Gasoline Alley. Sorry Carlos…

Darren Daubenspeck's RX-7 autocrosser was next. His red '84 GS^1/2L, a GS model with a limited slip differential, put out 87.1hp. Not bad for a stock 12A motor.

Ken Davis followed, putting the oldest car at the event, his red/white '57 Chevy Cruiser, on the line. The new Kinetic Engineering small block motor cranked out 245.3hp on the third run.

The black '86 Fiero of Marc Kerr was next, turning out 102.2hp at 4300rpm with his bone-stock CS autocrosser.

Rick Katko was the Big Dog of the day with his '97 Camaro SS pumping out 271.7hp. It's basically stock, with a ported MAF and Hipertec fuel curve programming. By the way, Rick takes credit for building the motor and choosing the cam for Davis' '57 Chevy.

Jason Strain put his red ITA Honda CRX racer up next, producing 80hp at 82.5mph.

Solo Co-Chairman, Steve Linn, stated that he'd be happy with something in the 120's before his run. He was satisfied to turn 124.1hp with his '92 Nissan Sentra SE-R.

Jim Allen, AKA "Jetta Jim", posted 219hp with his green '95 Volkswagen "Super modified track car." VW offers factory specs of 172hp at the crank.

Autocross regular, Paul Fox, put his familiar white C Prepared '66 Corvair on the line with 132.7hp and 154lb/ft of torque. The backfire, coming down from one of his runs, blew an amazing flame from the exhaust that melted one of the retaining straps.

Jay Hofacker was hoping for 100hp from his stock '97 Mazda Miata. He was surprised to reach 107.3hp at 6,000rpm and 103lb/ft of torque from his autocross car. Jay recently added a roll bar and hopes to make it to a few track events this year.

The bright red, 2WD Mitsubishi Eclipse of Paul Lazaro was next, cranking out 211.4hp and 233lb/ft of torque. His E Street Prepared Turbo has an updated intake, cat-back exhaust and suspension enhancements.

The final run of the day was posted by Jeff Alexander with his white '91 Toyota MR2. Jeff's C Stock autocrosser turned 125lb/ft of torque with 109.5hp. Jeff believes a tune-up will help him get a little more next time.

Once completed with their dyno runs, printouts in hand, most put their vehicle on the digital scales. Corner weights, percentages and totals were available.

Additional spectators on hand were Matt Curry, Seth Mansue, Steve Phillips, Dave Jarvis and Jerrod Baugh. Some didn't seem to mind the loud exhaust notes and exhaust filled room, while others scattered toward the door, gasping for fresh air after the most potent of runs.

For many, putting their beast on a dyno was a virgin experience. This was evident by the intense look on many of the car owners' faces, as their vehicle was strapped tightly to the floor, pressed hard against the drums of the DynoJet and put through the paces.

Shop owners Steve Fenwick and John Bachman were satisfied hosts. "I think we had a good turn-out on a short notice," said Fenwick. "I hope everyone had fun. I'd like to do it again, maybe in May, if there's an interest."

Indy Region member Bachman agreed, "I hope people learned what a useful tool the DynoJet is. We appreciated the opportunity to host the event for the region."

Our new member for the month of December is:

Welcome to the Indianapolis Region of the Sports Car Club of America. If you have any questions concerning your membership, please call.

For those of you wanting to or needing to contact the SCCA national office in Denver, you now may use a toll free phone number to do so. The number is: 1-800-770-2055.

Anyone else getting cabin fever? Rejoice because the first event of the Indy Region Solo2 season is just a month away! The April 7 (Saturday!) Indy Test & Tune should prove to be a great opportunity for lots of seat time and a chance to catch up with all your fellow competitors. Who installed new trick shocks over the winter? Who’s changing classes? Who stuffed his car into a snowbank on almost bald summer tires? A revised format for the Test & Tune should allow for upwards of 8 or more runs on a simple, quick course. It will consist of multiple sessions of run groups. Each run group will consist of a small number of cars to allow multiple runs (probably 4) in a short amount of time. This will allow feedback on small changes in set-ups between your runs within the group. The time between sessions will allow for more extensive changes to car set-ups before your next run group. We are also going to call upon all you veteran cone-heads to help provide our novice (and even those not-so-novice) competitors that may want to learn some new tricks with some in-car instruction. Anyone wishing to be a "mentor" please let us know. It’s also not to early to start qualifying those season-end points, so anyone that would like to assist in the set-up and running of this event should also contact us. We hope to see everyone there.

We still need some more people to help with our Specialty Chief program. It’s a good way to help out the program and also qualify your season-end points. Anyone that is interested please give us a call. A big concern we also still have is that we are still looking for assistance with transportation of the Solo trailer. Whether it is for multiple events or just one, let us know if you can help out (Class 2 hitch required).

We already have our first schedule change of the year! The Australian Pursuit scheduled for Tuesday night, June 5^th, at the Speedrome is being tentatively moved to Saturday afternoon, June 9^th, at the Anderson GM Plant. The date of Event #7 was also incorrect in the last Clutch Chatter. The date is September 9^th, not August 9^th. We are also working on acquiring a new local site so there may be some more site changes in the near future. Dates should remain the same and we will keep everyone informed via Clutch Chatter, the indyscca.org web site, and via the Yahoo e-groups web page (what, you haven’t signed up yet?).

We will also be purchasing a supply of 2001 Solo2 rule books in the near future. This years edition includes a read-only CD so they have raised the price to $15/each. If you would like to "reserve" one, let us know asap. They will be available at the April 6^th Test & Tune.

As always, feel free to contact us about sites, specialty chiefs, or anything.

Hope to see everyone at the Test & Tune!

Vintage: a model of an earlier time improved by aging

Venerable: worthy of respect by reason of age, dignity, character or position.

Senior: person of greater rank or length of service

Senility: old age, infirmity of mind and body

Dotage: feebleness or childish of old age, excessive fondness

Master: very skilled or able in some work

Veteran: old and experienced

Coot: a foolish person

Geezer: an eccentric old man

Old person: someone 15 years older than me

I was in a restaurant recently and was given a "senior discount" without having asked for it. I have five little people calling me "grandpa". My Mother just passed away leaving me the "oldest" in any family grouping. Young pregnant women offer me their seats. My friends are all looking older. Is everyone getting taller?

I looked up some race results on the internet and found a picture of my car and a statement "Mr. LeVeque getting ready to run". Mr. LeVeque???

I just participated in a Yenko Stinger (racing Corvair) reunion issue of our National Magazine "CORSA Communique". I did this by submitting 25 and 30 year old pictures of myself and others who were racing in the "production" (before GT classes) car heyday. It is quite shocking to see yourself in a young photo in a magazine. I knew that those other fellows were getting older but you deny it yourself. Yes, there ARE mirrors in my house. My race car has changed from a state of the art production racer into a "vintage" eligible racer without me doing a thing to it.

This has me thinking about the age of some of us in the Solo II community. The sport has gotten old enough to acquire some rather Vintage members. I often hear terms of respect uttered by younger people at persons of "ahem" my age. I will have to take "Geezer" as a term of respect, but I like vintage and venerable better. The USA is not one of the countries to respect it’s elders. Things may be getting better with the "retro" and "nostalgia" movements.

How do you know if you are "Vintage"? It’s not always just age. It can also be an attitude.

Besides the obvious gray hair or lack of it (thus the popularity of caps) and everyone wearing sun glasses there are ways to recognize the senior members:

• The always close proximity of a chair.
• The volunteering for "sit down" jobs.
• Air conditioned motor homes ( for naps)
• Enclosed trailers with winches
• Motor Scooters, golf carts-cleverly disguised motorized wheel chairs
• Umbrellas (used as canes)
• Race cars with power steering, power brakes, ABS, Traction control
• Sensible shoes, sun hats, long sleeves, and prepared with all weather clothes

• Declining to take re-runs or fun runs
• Never pushing cars
• Not fixing breakdowns
• Not bringing tools or parts
• Going to bed at reasonable hours
• Not accepting 4 door hatchbacks as sportscars
• Driving 60’s and 70’s real sports cars
• Only walking the course once if at all
• Having a large dog pull you around the course.
• Not changing tires
• Declining booze
• Not giving rides so often now that our sons and daughters have all publicly beaten us.

• "I used to be sooo fast"
• "The old real sports cars were better"
• "I don’t care if the new fwd econobox is faster I still want a real sports car"
• "We used to do it this other way"
• "How far is the next event???" and "How early do I have to get up?"

• Can be called upon to use experience to design courses and to organize events.
• Can see the occurrences from a distant vantage point.
• Can learn from history and advise.
• We provide an easy trophy for one additional competitor by our entry, and contribute to the support of the club without taking hardware away.
• Provide shade and chairs for others.
• Don’t push to be at the front of the line

If you recognize yourself or us from any of the above you may be vintage regardless of your age.

In deference to our great age, experience, accumulated wisdom, and declining ability, perhaps we should be given a "Senior Discount" without asking for it. This discount could just be in the form of a courtesy, i.e.: "let me help you push that", ‘I’ll save a spot in line for you", "let me run after that cone", "do you need something to drink?", "let me change those tires for you.", and especially, "Tell me more about the good old days Mr._________".

I’d really rather have 2 seconds deducted from my time. Surely these old weak eyes, slow reflexes, arthritic joints, and vintage car is worth as much as raggedy street tires.

If you can’t find a way to give us our "senior discount" in the rules, you youngsters (under 40) can just mentally allot us the 2 sec. by saying " I should have beaten you by two seconds because of my youth, so you really won!"

Mr. "Gramps" LeVeque is a long-time, senior contributor to Clutch Chatter and a venerable Solo II competitor in his vintage Corvair.

The rally school and first event are already history. I apologize for the late notice about the school by e-mail. I discovered a new wrinkle in Microsoft Outlook that had me sending to an abbreviated list while letting me think it was going to everybody. By the time I figured this out you only received two days notice. Additionally, the Star did not put our event into Let’s Go, so non-members never got notified. In spite of the difficulties we still had 16 students. My gratitude to Dan Cook, Bob Farr, Pam Farr, and Ben Tackitt III for their service as instructors, and a special thank you to Kurt Weisner who brought his Ford Anglia historic rally car and collection of antique Class A navigation computers to exhibit, including a 50 year old Kerfott that I had never seen before. Truly fun for us old timers.

Jim Bredle put together a neat little winter tour rally through some rarely used parts of Morgan County, and a few frequently used parts as well. There were a few special methods used at check points that were designed to prevent unsafe conditions if we had substantial snow in the week immediately prior to the event. In addition, he used a locally new format for the instructions that was borrowed from the National series. The rally gave students an opportunity to apply the lessons of the school without having to worry about lots of traps of either a course following or timing nature. Results are listed below.

Next month the Tackitt’s are going to present still another different form of rally instruction format called a herringbone. Because of the format this will be classified as a Course rally. However, the timing will be very simple because there will be minimal speed changes. Better to keep both sets of eyes on the road so that you follow the course. Almost all paved roads with a very short and slow gravel connection at one point.

We have filled the May 12 slot with a non-TSD event by Julie Partridge. This still leaves the August slot uncommitted. Remember, the rallymaster gets 12 points in his usual competition class for putting on an event. This is equivalent to winning an event. It also fulfills the work requirement to qualify your points for year end trophies. Any takers?

Finally, congratulations to Steve Phillips and Paul Gilbert who made the trek to Cleveland for the Ohio Winter Rally where they took first place in the Limited Class. That is an encouraging start to the season. This team is part of our Divisional Rally Committee and are writing the October rally for the region.

Feb 3 - Indy Region’s Steve Phillips and Paul Gilbert won the opener of the 2001 CENDIV Rally series, NE Ohio Region’s Deep Do Do. Starting at 5 PM finishing about 2 AM, with 17 scored controls over 210 miles. Some snow and lots of fun. They won the limited class for their efforts that included changing an alternator in a parts store parking lot.

Jim Bredle directed a 13-car field down to his neck of the woods on a blustery Sunday. In his first event as rallymaster, Jim applied his knowledge of the roads through and over Morgan County to put together a scenic route that found many twisty bits and hills. The weather cooperated quite nicely for February, with mild temps, a stiff breeze, and the hard rain the night before was the closest thing to precipitation.

Editor’s Note – Last month our address database was scrubbed and thus we mailed Clutch Chatter only to Indy Region members. This month we’ve added back many of the non-members that compete in Indy Region events. Glad to have you back!

Annual Convention. Indy Region members were honored with two awards for journalistic endeavors. SportsCar presented Pete Hylton with the Vern Jaques Award for outstanding contributions to the magazine. In the newsletter competition, Cindy Hylton received second place for the third year running for Clutch Chatter. Congratulations to both for these well-deserved honors!

No Kitchen Pass. The following may sound familiar to some of you out there. Recent response to the question "Do you want to drive down to Meridian, Mississippi for the Solo II National Tour?" Answer:

I think it would be fun to go but:

1. I leave for Daytona on the 14th and don't return until the 20th.
2. This is the 5th Valentine's Day in a row I've missed.
3. The (car) currently has many nagging ailments that would preclude a 1500 mile round trip weekend.
4. My wife is (a few) months pregnant and would probably not be receptive to the following - "Honey, I know I just got back Tuesday but me and a couple of other guys are going to Mississippi this weekend, OK?"

Award Spotlight: Competitor of the Year. The Michael Buchanan Fairbanks Memorial Award is presented annually to the competitor who scores the most points in Indy Region rally, autocross and race events.
