Welcome to the 356 Enterprises website!

The parts and services we offer are the result of forty-four years involvement with Porsche 356s and forty-two years of racing them. The lessons have been expensive and sometimes mentally painful, but I have learned a lot and continue learning more each year. Being actively involved in racing a 356, I have the oppportunity to learn the latest "go-fast" and "handle-better" tricks. Continued racing also helps me learn about reliability; it never ceases to amaze me that after all these years of racing, every year some different part will find a new way to fail. The only thing to do is to redesign, reinvent, reinforce, or all of the above.

I started racing in 1965 in a Speedster, then began running SCCA Nationals in 1977 with a 356B Roadster. Since then I have been Central Division E- Production champion numerous times. I have qualified for the SCCA Championship Run-Offs eighteen times in E-Production, as well as eight times in G-Production with eight top three finishes, including a National Championship in G-Production in 1994. I retired from SCCA in 1997, and now race only in vintage. Since the inception of the Porsche Cup North America in 1985, I have finished fifth, third, fifteenth, seventh, and second; the only driver to place in the top fifteen all five years. In 1987, my teammate Ed Clancy, driving my G-Production 1300 Porsche Cabriolet; then still a Coupe, also qualified for the Porsche Cup. In 1990, I finished fourteenth in the International Porsche Cup results.

With this broad base of experience, I have a very good idea of what will work and what won't. If you have any questions, feel free to call. As with any racing-oriented enterprise, this weeks answer or solution could change next week based on new and continuing information.
