For any of you long time POC (SoCal) members, our respected friend Topper Chasse has passed on. I first remember him in his orange 9146 doing hot laps at RIR and Willow Springs back in 1978. He was a talented driver, and I always admired his skills on the track. He always had something good to say. He will be missed.
Friends can celebrate his life tomorrow 9/14/05 at The Church of the Calvary, 4201 Whittier Bl. Whittier, CA. My condolences to the Chasse family. Marty |

Just about the end of an era. One of the founding forces in POC, as I recall. We talked at some length at the Ustabedunkel's swap meet last spring. Mostly about who's still around, what happened to people we knew, and the old days when time trials were filled with 356s, with a 911 now and then. He and Speedy Livingston, as well as John Uphoff, kept me focused on the things I could do to keep competitive in my daily driver 356A 1600NH coupe. Walked right up to me, close to 40 years after I last saw him, and we picked up right where we left off ................... The Cap'n
