We are planning an exciting event with the illustrious Norbert Singer coming over from Germany to regale us in the morning and after dinner.
We are limiting attendance to 150 people so that there will be ample space to admire the cars, watch the mechanics and listen to the speakers. We have organized an improved sound system and the lunch will be pre-packaged, thereby avoiding long line-ups.



The Ethan Allen Hotel is giving us a special rate and  the dinner will be at the hotel.
Please check www.Zone1.pca.org from time to time for changes, e.g., additional presenters .
Plan to be there.

Norbert Singer
By Michael Cotton, Panorama’s European Editor  
Quoted in part from the inside jacket of Norbert Singer’s autobiography 24:16 with Michael Cotton.



Norbert Singer, senior racing engineer at Porsche, has played a key role in every one of Porsche’s 16 overall victories at the Le Mans 24 hours.
When, as a young engineer, he joined Porsche straight out of university, he was given the job of designing a cooling system for the gearboxes on the powerful 917 race car. His first task was successful and the 917s dominated in 1971and 1972.
Engineer Singer was then given the task of developing the 911 road car for racing and in doing so he created what is by far the most successful car that Porsche ever produced, the 935, the car that won at Le Mans in 1979. Following on this he designed the body of the 956 and 963 Group C cars which won no fewer  than 7 Le Mans titles, engineered the WSC open sports car which claimed 2 victories, and finally oversaw the GT1-98 project which achieved Porsche’s 16th Le Mans victory in 1998.
