Slipstream - June 2020

You can test your
knowledge (or Google
search ability) of all
things Porsche by
participating in the
monthly trivia contest
posted online at http://
mav.pca.org/trivia.
Answers are due by the
last day of each month.
The winner of the trivia contest receives a $25 gift
certificate from our sponsor, Zims Autotechnik. In the case
of ties, a random drawing determines the winner.
Here are the questions and qnswers for the April 2020
Trivia. We went with trivia dealing with 914 history
items. The winner this month, being the only person to
get all 5 questions correct, was Tom Martin. Honorable
mention goes to J Krielen
getting 4 of 5 correct. It
must have been a hard one
this month, as most folks
only got about 2 correct.
