The Inside Track by Rocky Johnson, the Maverick Region President
T
hose of you blessed with excellent memories (or a July 2005 Slipstream) may remember that after last year's event I boldly forecasted an even bigger and better Club Race/DE weekend for 2006. As it turned out, it was bigger and better in ways I hadn't even imagined at the time. As in the past, all of the Chairs, Co-Chairs, National Staff, Sponsors and the many volunteers did an outstanding job. On the whole, things ran so smoothly that it looked easy. Believe me, if something that complicated can be made to look easy, it is because of all the excellent planning and hard work that has taken place beforehand. So, a huge thank you goes out to everyone who helped make the weekend so successful! If I attempted to list all the names, it would take all the available space in Slipstream. Back to the “bigger and better” part. Last year we held our first Club Race at MSR on the original 1.7 mile track and it was great. This year we had the new, bigger 3.1 mile circuit that provided even more fun and challenges. We grew from 65 to 82 club racers and had 63 DE participants. We increased the schedule from two to three races, two Sprints and an Enduro and had significantly more track time available for DE participants. We even upped the ante in the food department with a cookout Saturday evening and a catered meal Sunday evening. For this we thank our good friends at Boardwalk Porsche and Performance Speed Tech. It will certainly be an uphill climb to top this year’s event. However, it is never a good idea to underestimate the capabilities of the many Maverick volunteers, so, once again, don't be surprised if 2007 brings another “bigger and better” weekend!

Maverick Minutes by Jan Mayo
R
ocky paused the start of the meeting while Dennis Chamberlain redirected my attention with his busily snapping shutter. He said he needed new pictures of the board, but how can one concentrate on Rocky while that shutter is snapping and the flash is flashing and everybody is watching. Rocky regained control by starting with Dennis who had to put down his camera so he could talk. The Hunan Happy Hour was fun but they had unusually bad service that evening. Seems it was only at Tracey and Wendy’s table because Lanean said she had great service. The next Happy Hour is at Go Fish where the menu is not cheap plus that night is game 4 for the Mavericks. Dennis is expecting another small crowd. This month’s ads were run by Tracey before heading to Wendy to publish so there should be no errors. Lanean was looking ahead on the calendar and noted that the Sept Board Meeting falls on the Tues after Labor Day. Hackberry Country Club will change their normal Monday close day to that Tuesday in order to stay open for Labor Day. Our Board Meeting will move to Wed 9/6. The Hope Shelter has started sheet rock and tape/bedding work on two rooms. It’s going slow because the labor is being donated by a single gentleman working by himself at night. Lanean is working on getting some experienced volunteers that can go out over the next couple of weeks. With this done the painting will be next. Lanean expressed a huge Thank You to Wendy Shoffit, Annette Snodgrass and Tracey Gross for their help with Hospitality during the Memorial Day Club Race. While the “Thanks” were going around Bryan Bell noted that the Trivia games have been great. He sends a big Thanks to Bob Kuykendall. Since he had the floor Bryan continued with his report that Time Trials #2 and #3 went fairly well. He was finally awake for Time Trial #4 and Autocross #3. The autocross attendance was at 58 and he was pleased with that. Bryan’s looking at the 2007 calendar and in preparation to reserve dates wants to know the track weekends so he can schedule around them. Rocky asked about his intention to raise the fee for non-P cars and Bryan intends to do that starting next year rather than confuse things in the middle of this season. He will also lower the fee for P-cars by the same $5. Bryan asked if the board had anything they wanted done differently this year and was answered with a no and resounding thanks for the great job he’s been doing. Bryan had another thanks for Mike Lockas who did a good job on a worker-info sheet at the last event. Rocky commented that, while taking pictures at Mineral Wells, Charlie sometimes positions himself in unsafe locations. He asked Charlie to just be aware of where he was at all times and to forego the picture in regards to his safety. Charlie responded that he will take more care and Rocky had another thanks for Charlie’s ponytail…. Something about now he doesn’t need to grow one to see what it would look like and that proceeded into more ponytail conversation. When the furor died down Charlie relayed a comment he heard from the Trailer Posting person at the last event, asking that sheets be sorted by Car Number since the posting person often has trouble finding the car/driver. That started conversation about the posting sheets also being used by drivers to see how they’re doing relative to others in their class. The end result is that the posting sheets can be sorted by any manner. Charlie continued with recap of the Z-Club event that he,Wendy and Lisa Steele worked. The Z-Club gave them dinner and a shot glass and donated $1,000 to the Hope Shelter. Charlie noted that they run with fewer rules than we do and that we appreciate our events even more. Wendy thanks Lisa for helping her with timing. Mark Gluck is on top of the insurance requests. He emails the 8
certificates to event chairs, which they print and have on hand. Tracey Gross reporting for herself and Ed that they need to let go of the Goodie Store. With doing the Social events for the year plus other new activities at home they are overloaded. Please please, if you are reading this and are interested get in touch with Tracey or Ed Gross or President Rocky or any of the people on the board page. Tracey continued to report on May at Mayo’s. The beverage purchases were high so the left overs will be split with sodas going to the Father’s Day Picnic and beer/wine going to the Club Race. In looking at the Father’s Day picnic receipts from last year she’s questioning buying beer. We all agreed a family picnic could do without beer. She is needing rsvp’s for the Murder Mystery at Saltgrass with June 15 being the deadline. Reminder that the Rangers v.Yankees baseball game RSVP is July 1 with half price tickets at $11.50. Back on the wine theme Tracey checked the interest in doing another wine tasting event in Plano. She’s looking at a Thursday night (not to conflict with a Happy Hour) in Sept or Oct. Stay tun…..YEEEECH, scramble with chair flying to the floor. Train of thought was stopped by a very large bug which Mark Gluck crunched with the heel of his shoe. Thank You Very Much. Tracey, trying to regain her composure now wanted to make a point of some unbecoming behavior during a tug-of-war over a beer cooler at the Club Race. She, Lanean and Wendy were very embarrassed. There was a large miscommunication which resulted in less than proper behavior by several people. It has been addressed off line. Speaking of the Club Race, though (this wasn’t Tracey’s report - we were on the topic). There were some incidents during race sessions which caused the Green DE run group to be shorted significantly. Unfortunately the weekend event is run on CR schedule with DE sessions provided in between race sessions. Since it is a CR venue run on their schedule, the DE groups bear the brunt if delays occur. Future event advertising will state this fact more clearly so DE entrants aren’t taken by surprise if their session is changed. Another one of those “communication” things that the board is addressing. Jeff Atkins brought the checkbook and copies of final annual budget, which he was calling a Wish List. Joel reported that the membership information is finally flowing freely. He has provided Wendy and Dennis their info. He was asked if anyone proof-read the directory and Joel said he has to retype every new and updated entry every month. Knowing Joel’s typing skills will help you understand if you see errors in the Directory. Wendy said June Slipstream was in the mail today (we received ours in 2 days). TriWinn says the Dallas Post Office is improving but Wendy still wants to move it back to Fort Worth. Production was delayed a little while Wendy had MAJOR computer issues. (Wendy with computer problems? What’s the world coming to?) She’s still resolving problems with the software and asked for $500 for the upgrade. Motion was made and passed. During my turn I brought up the ever popular subject of voting on the By Laws. We had a sort of successful attempt at the April DE but still failed to gather the required number of votes to make it fly. Rocky announced that the re-vote will take place at Founder’s Day in November where we will have the right number of members in attendance and can be sure to gather the proper number of ballots. Joe McGlohen needs the Autocross radios during CR weekends. Bryan Bell was most agreeable and will work with Joe next year. Rocky had the Stewards report from the Club Race and it was very positive towards the racers and the workers. He suggests there be a blend line painted at pit entrance as that part of the track is a potentially dangerous location. The Club Race team is anticipating our event growing to three Race groups. If that happens there won’t be any DE sessions to have to communicate with.

From The Driver’s Seat by Wendy Shoffit, Slipstream Managing Editor The Care and Feeding of Volunteers
V
olunteers... what are they exactly and what do they do? The official definition of the verb to volunteer is this: 1. To perform or offer to perform a service of one's own free will; 2. To do charitable or helpful work without pay.
Over the past few months, I’ve come across several situations in which volunteers were *grossly* mistreated. I’m not just talking about the Porsche Club here, many other organizations struggle with this similar problem. What I’d like to do is mention a few items of etiquette in dealing with volunteers in any organization.
can have fun. For those of you who have not taken a peek behind the wizard’s curtain, you have no idea what all is involved. You might be astounded to hear about the number of hours involved in each and every part of even the (seemingly) smallest event. Our club’s volunteers are not paid. Some are fortunate enough to receive compensation in the form of entry fees, but I, for one, haven’t seen a check in years! *wink* So, what do you wonder do they get instead? Appreciation, adulation, a pat on the back, or a simple attaboy/girl.
When dealing with volunteers, remember that they’re human beings, just like you (assuming you believe yourself to be human). Are you acting like a human being in the way you’re communicating with them at all times? If not, STOP. Remember the Golden Rule - Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. If you wouldn’t want someone berating you, don’t berate them. It’s simple.
Now, am I trying to complain about the hours? No, I’ll save that for another article. *snicker* What I AM trying to say is that if during an event something isn’t going according to the way you want it to go, before you go off half-cocked and start yelling for whatever reason at our precious volunteers, just stop and THINK. Do you really think that these people MEANT for this bad thing to happen or was it an unfortunate series of events that ended up at that point? Do you think berating or yelling at them will make them want to help you? Is what you want WORTH making someone feel so badly?
A volunteer is freely giving of his or her time to provide a service. Maverick Region Porsche Club volunteers are everywhere. They are the ones who plan, organize, and execute all the tasks needed for these wonderful events we all enjoy. Let me reiterate that . . . they’re freely doing what needs to be done so YOU
Without volunteers, there is no organization, no events, no fun. Put yourself in their drivers’ seat and see what the view looks like. You know who you are. Do better next time and the time after that and the time after that. I thank you and all the other volunteers thank you.

Preserving Memories by Steve Boyd, Webmaster
R
ecently I added a new link to the home page of our website. Did you see it? The one that says, “Photos from TT #2 & #3 are now available?” It's also available on the Autocross and Time Trial Events page. If you don't know what I'm talking about, put down Slipstream and go check it out. I'll wait… Pretty cool, huh? (And for those of you who didn't actually go look at the site, it's… pictures.) So now you're thinking, “But Steve, what about Club Racing pictures and Tour pictures, Happy Hour pictures?” Well, that's where you get to participate. You do want to participate don't you? Don't make me send Wendy after you. Here's how it works: 1. Go to www.flickr.com and sign up for a free account Flickr is a web site that provides photo-hosting, plus a whole lot more. Its community aspect is what we're hoping to take advantage of. Once you have your account set up, go search for the user “Maverick_photos” and add it as a Contact. Now you'll see any photos we add, and we'll see your great pictures as well. 2. Upload and “tag” your club event photos While you can upload pictures of (just about) anything to Flickr, we're mainly interested in shots you've captured at Club events. When you add pictures to your account, the system will ask you to add a title, description and “tags.” Tags are one- or two-
word descriptors for the picture that allow users to find “like” photos. For Maverick events, we are using the following: a. b. c. d.
PCA Maverick 2006 (or appropriate year) EVENT (e.g. “time trial” or autocross or “happy hour”)
Hint: enclose two (or more) word tags in quotes 3. Browse all the other photos uploaded from other club members who are as excited about participating as you are! If you've added your tags correctly, your pictures will now show up with all the other pictures for that event. I will add links to the event pages on our website, and as more people participate, more photos will become available. This is a new process, and questions or comments are welcome. If you're having trouble using the site, let me know and I'll try to help you out. If you think of a way to make it better or easier, I definitely want to know (webmaster@mavpca.org). Our main goal with this effort is to provide a way for more people to see what our Club is all about - how many different ways there are to be involved, how much fun we have and what great people are involved in all our Maverick Events!

May at Mayo’s by Wendy Shoffit This event always seems to bring out some of the people who we don’t often see. This year was no different. We were joined by the Bambinas, Dugans, deJongs, Krupps, Suttons, Searses (complete with baby Ryan), Vaughan Garrett and Angela Persichitte, Steve Perrin, and Al Zim. I’m sure I’ve forgotten some people, but I think you can see how it would be hard to remember everyone. It’s always such a casual, fun event with no agenda, no time clocks, no series points, and no trophies. Oh wait, no trophies could be a bad thing! Anyway, we had a great time. Hope you can make it next year!

early 70 Maverick Region members turned out for the annual May at Mayo’s dinner social. Temperatures were warm, but the breeze through the Mayo Performance shop doors kept it manageable. It was an easy choice to make for that yummy Babe’s Fried Chicken and the visions of Porsche car loveliness.

Ed and Tracey Gross continue to do a fabulous job as social chairs as they provided plenty of sodas, beer, and wine to accompany all that comfort food! Too bad it was too hot for some to drink the wine, as there was a ton left over.

Drivers’ Education at the Club Race by Phil Hallenbeck
T
he weather: Nearly perfect. Breezy, not too hot, nary a drop of rain. The track: Amazing. A warm surface for sticky tires. A 3.1mile, technically challenging course.
The schedule: Seat time that felt like it would never end! The usual eight runs on Saturday and Sunday were capped off by three 40minute, that's right 40-minute runs, all before noon on Memorial Day.
Photo by Hart Photography
The sponsorship and hospitality: First class-and too many sponsors to list! Our friends at Boardwalk Porsche of Plano were merely the leaders of a long and distinguished list which included Performance Speed Tech (sponsors of a wonderful Saturday night barbecue), Fifth Gear Motorsports, and many others. Participants returned home with not one, but two commemorative shirts. Our sponsors ensured that the cold water was plentiful, and so was the beer in the evening!
finished. Shutterbugs were captivated by practice starts and fun races, where Josemanuel Gutierrez, John Crosby, Gerald Isbell, and Keith Olcha amongst others showed off some very capable machinery-with even more capable driving. These guys gave most everybody something to shoot for. Monday dawned nearly clear, and early arrivals saw the track quickly illuminated by a blazing sunrise as they enjoyed coffee and donuts before the drivers' meeting. At the meeting, John Sandusky diplomatically explained the schedule issues from Sunday, and the talk then quickly turned to the enviable task at hand for all: Three morning runs-and not the usual 20- or 25-minute runs, but 40 minutes apiece! It did not take long for even the most mathematically challenged driver to realize he would put in nearly as much seat time that morning as usually happens in an entire weekend. Old hand John wisely cautioned all to monitor their fatigue and their water intake, advice that seemed to be well taken as several drivers stopped for short breaks in the hot pit, and very few paid the black-flag price for inattention. For many drivers, however, maintenance issues came to the fore, as brake pads and tires faced the blistering assault of nearly two hours of all-out speed on a tight, challenging track. Jerry Hiatt and Phil Hallenbeck, among others, found themselves visiting Bobby Archer for new tires or the mounting of on-hand spares, as the tires which started the weekend were either fresh at the start or finished well before the end. While we all realize holiday weekends are strictly rationed on the calendar, the comment of one departing driver sums up this event: “Man, I wish every DE could be just like this.”
Guy Morgan leading other DE drivers through Rattlesnake Drivers arriving Saturday morning found some good things which don't change for the Mavericks and their fast friends: the warm smiles of Lanean Hughes and Annette Snodgrass, plentiful coffee, and donuts before the drivers’meeting, and the fellowship of Porschephiles from as far away as northern Oklahoma! Those with a technical challenge (or just a hankering for a new gadget) were comforted by the sight of Bobby Archer and crew open and ready for work. First-time drivers found the new course even more technically challenging than the near-legendary 1.7-mile original one, but there were surprisingly few “offs” and even fewer as time wore on. Blair Hartsfield and the photo gang seemed omnipresent-whenever a driver would look up just a bit off his turn, he caught a glimpse of the indefatigable camera crew. Blair and crew had plenty to shoot: Jason Brodigan had a beautiful black 944 to shake out for the first time, while Shelly Burbank's Polar Blue 911SC evoked memories of the similar blue worn by the Gulf-Wyer 917s of yesteryear-and these were of course but a few of many. The Green group enjoyed an outstanding car control show by Greg Smith in his BMW 330ci. And the parade laps that day featured a ride unusual even by Maverick PCA standards-a black '57 T-bird! Saturday night's barbecue, hosted by Performance Speed Tech, bears special mention as does the Sunday awards dinner courtesy of Boardwalk. A wonderful Texas time was had by all at both events as the food, beer, and camaraderie flowed freely. Sunday again dawned a bit cloudy, but whether due to the efforts of “chaplain” Michael Wingfield or to the general beneficence of the Lord, not a drop of rain fell to slow what quickly became very fast sessions. Green drivers were a bit disappointed by a very short run after lunch (shortened to accommodate the club race schedule), but were compensated by a longer run late in the day after the club races 16

PorschePlatz at the Lone Star Grand Prix
B
ryan Henderson, PCA Zone 5 Rep, and Lanean Hughes of Maverick Region coordinated volunteers from the Maverick (Dallas area), Hill Country (Austin), and Lone Star (Houston) Regions, who manned the “PorschePlatz” at the recent Lone Star Grand Prix in Houston, Texas. This event combined Champ Car and American Le Mans Series races, May 11th through 13th. The races were held on a “street course” layed out around the Reliant Center sports complex, home of the Houston Texans NFL football team. PorschePlatz provided parking for Porsches attending the event and a hospitality tent for Porsche owners to relax between events, meet the racing teams and drivers, and get updates on Porsche and the racing scene. The Porsche Race Teams and a Representative from Porsche AG, along w/Shell Oil representatives, were among the guest speakers. Momentum Porsche's Rodger Gay, the dealer liaison to the Lone Star Region PCA, arranged for a beautiful Cayman S, (which Lanean drove on a parade lap around the course), a new Cabriolet, and a GT2 to be exhibited at the Platz, and there was a member Carrera GT on display as well. This was an excellent chance to meet PCA members from the southeast and central Texas areas and to recruit non 18

his was our second happy hour at Hunan Dynasty in Irving, almost a year to the day from our last visit there. Hunan's has large portions with reasonable prices, although according to Terry Gross, the service was “hit and miss” at best. Mine was great, but I guess I got lucky. One thing that is consistent is the great view.

Welcome, New Members! You have just joined one of the best and most active PCA Regions in the country! Some clubs focus solely on social events, while others focus on just show and shine concours events. Maverick Region is a club that focuses on providing our members with the tools necessary to have the ultimate in driving experiences. You will notice that our region has many Time Trials, Autocrosses, and Drivers’ Education (DE) events (in addition to a yearly Club Race). This has been the spirit of the region for quite some time. We have some of the finest instructors in the country. Make sure you take full advantage of the driving experiences we have to offer. Racing is not ALL we focus on, though. If racing doesn’t suit you, we have monthly happy hours, three monthly lunch gatherings, regular dinner socials, frequent driving tours on some fabulous roads in and around Texas, driving rallies (fun for the whole family), and regular opportunities to support our perpetual charity, the Hope Shelter. If we don’t have what you’re looking for, just ask us... we might just add something extra to the calendar. Please also feel free to share article ideas (and submissions) to editor@mavpca.org. We’d love to hear from you!
