My Thoughts by Jan Mayo, Slipstream Managing Editor
A
lright now, two issues under my belt and I’m feeling pretty good. A few typos here and there, but that always happens. Let me know what you think so far. Have you looked at the calendar page recently? Turn back a page and look at all the stuff that’s happening. You won’t appreciate this but I had to scrunch the type and enlarge the boxes to get it all to fit. Every weekend has something Porsche Club that you can do. Can’t do it all you say?? Yeah, me too. So pick and choose. What’s important to you?? What’s fun?? What do you really want to get involved with?? There’s a second two-day Autocross school. I mentioned the great value of these last month. Now you can continue to hone those skills at the first autocross and time trial of the season. Teri Davis is having another Rally. Look at her ad below for the particulars. Also look at page 15 for the fun pictures of her February Photo Rally. Now THAT was great fun. Thank goodness Wendy got lost trying to find the start point. That’s how she knew the answer to the verbal tie breaker question which popped us over the top of a four way tie to take third place! The pressure of competition.
Maybe you prefer socializing more than driving? Tracey is having another Wine Tasting party. The people that went last year had so much fun and Premier Wines of Plano enjoyed having us, as well. In fact they made a major donation to our Founder’s Day raffle that was very well received. Eh, Keith? And Dennis Chamberlain’s Happy Hours are always fun filled. How about a gentle Sunday Drive? Clint Blackman has started a series of drives to some grand locations: Kilgore East Texas Oil Museum, The Texas Ranger Museum in Waco, a Cayenne “off road” tour at Rough Creek Lodge, plus several more. James has added a fourth lunch opportunity because, as Brian Scudder pointed out nearly 10 years ago, “Everybody has to eat lunch.” This one’s in Lewisville at the Spring Creek BBQ on Round Grove Road. Now I’m going to send you on a scavenger hunt. Find the page numbers where all these events are advertised. I’m not handing out any prizes, but you will still be a winner because now you know where to join your Fabulous Porsche Friends for whatever type of event you’re interested in. I’ll see you there!

Catch my Draft by James Shoffit, the Maverick Region President
I
love a Parade! Notice that Parade is capitalized. That means Porsche Parade, not just any parade. And rather than being a line of cars, it is a week-long celebration of all things Porsche with a thousand of your closest PCA friends.
This year it is being held in sunny San Diego, California, and it looks like it is going to be quite an event. [ed. July 1-5, 2007] There will be the standard competitive events consisting of Concours (the best Porscheonly car show in America, I'd wager), Rally (trying to follow a course using instructions, not a map, and finish each leg at exactly the specified time), Autocross (timed driving event on a parking lot course lined with cones), and Tech Quiz (answering 100 or more questions about Porsche, PCA, and Parade). But there will also be lots of other fun activities to do, such as the Art Show, the Banquets, the Beach Party, the Cayenne Event, Children's Activities, Gimmick Tour/Rally, Goodie Store, Radio Controlled Car Racing, Area Tours, USS Midway Aircraft Carrier, and the Zone Challenge. And there are plenty of other fun things to do in San Diego - I think it is impossible to get bored at Parade.
step into that role. If anyone has any great suggestions, please pass them along to president@mavpca.org. Another role we are seeking applicants for is DE Hospitality. This involves getting the catering and donuts set up as well as managing ice, beverages, and other various items for the drivers and workers. It isn't terribly time consuming but it needs to be someone who has at least a passing familiarity of the track events, a willingness to help, and it would probably be best if the person was not intending on participating in the DEs as a driver or instructor. Our first Lewisville Lunch (2nd Tuesday of each month) was far more successful than I imagined it would be. I figured I would be sitting alone at Spring Creek eating my lunch by myself, but we had a total of six people - Andy Mears, Bill Middleton, Tom Snodgrass, Chuck McCoy, and Dan Ruehs all joined me! Let's try to get even more out next time. In March we have more of the Rallies, Wine Tastings, and our Autocross and Time Trial schedule gets into full swing. We also have a Happy Hour event and four area lunches. Check the calendar online and in Slipstream to see what is coming up. Come on out and join the fun! See you soon!
If you have never attended, you can't understand how much fun we all have when we get together. Wendy and I have been to Parades from Boise, Idaho, to Hershey, Pennsylvania, and try to make them all. We did miss the one last year in Portland, Oregon, but don't want to skip another one! Part of the fun is seeing cars that are so well kept, and so amazing, and so rare; but even more fun is seeing the people, the smiles, and enjoying the company of other Porsche nuts. Why am I telling you this? Because registration for Parade opens online on March 6th at 8 AM Eastern Time, which is 7 AM our time! And this Parade, like most recently, will probably fill up, and so the earlier you get your registration in, the better chance you have of getting to go. To register online, go to http://www.pca.org/paraderegistration. Before you can do that, you MUST already be a registered user on the PCA web site. Log in now to make sure you are all set before that day. If you have any problems getting signed in or getting a password set up, contact me at president@mavpca.org. If you are not comfortable using the online method of registering, you may download the paper registration form from the PCA website. Fill it in and mail it on (or after) March 6th. The postmark date matters, because it will be rejected if mailed before March 6th. If you don't have access to the internet, you can call Susan Brown, Parade Registrar, at (760)707-6063 and request to have a paper registration form mailed to you. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mail it in, though, until March 6th. Bill Dawson, our DE chair for the last few years, has decided to step down and enjoy driving and instructing again. We all thank Bill for his wonderful work over the years. This does, however, give some other talented person the opportunity to 5

Maverick Minutes by Charlie Davis
M
averick Region Feb 2007 Board Meeting was called to order at 6:53 PM.
James: Discussed the meeting format briefly, trying to get control. Suggested we vote on decisions. The club has an old 19” CRT-type monitor and he asked for advice about what to do with it. The Board unanimously voted to give it to Joel (who for some reason actually wanted it?). James announced a few new appointments: Joel is the Club Race Chair, Clint Blackman is the Sunday Drive Chair and Bob Bianconi is the Concours Chair. James emphasized that the Sunday Drives will be safe. We discussed Concours briefly and decided that we should charge about $10 to enter the first one, but tabled discussion on other issues for a month. James announced that the Father's Day Picnic would not be at the Casey's (as is traditional), but rather at the Bell's new spread in Parker County. He asked for info regarding Tours, Rallys, Social Events, Concours, and Club Race to be sent to Denny for inclusion on the website. We decided not to automate writing checks. Instead, Joe McGlohen will send names to Bob Kuykendall prior to DEs and Bob will hand-write the checks. National sent us a box of 45th Anniversary decals…MR must be 45-years old this year? James reported that the National DE chairman (Pete Tremper) is proposing to outlaw stock seats when used with a harness (regardless of how many belts). We discussed this and there were significant objections to this proposal. The Board suggested that James contact our Zone Rep regarding this issue. He said he already had contacted the Zone 5 Rep, the Zone 5 Chief Driving Instructors, and our Safety Chair, Joe McGlohen. Tom: Reported that there are LOTS of Ladies signed up for the Ladies Autocross School. We need volunteers to help out! Sign up on clubregistration.net. He needs help with staffing for the technical inspection nights prior to DEs. Tom said he would work on this. Charlie suggested a way to require fewer instructors at our Time Trial and Autocross schools, but nobody liked it. Joel: Reported we have 1197 Active members. National reports a total regional membership of 1893 (which includes Affiliate members). He also reported that we have 22 new members and one transfer-in. Joel reported that there was a Club Race meeting last week and that Lisa had agreed to handle hospitality. Bill Miller and Wendy Shoffit have created an ad for the next Club Race News and has given it to Jan for Slipstream. Bryan: Reported that we need to make the first 2007 payment for the MineralRing. Bill: Reported that there are 75 people registered for the February DE. The late fee kicks in on Saturday, February 10th. The February, September and October DEs will use the 3.1 mile course, but the April DE will use the 1.7 mile course, as there will not be enough corner worker personnel due to a NASCAR 8
race. They are trying to organize a Mother's Day DE at Eagles Canyon, but there are a few issues yet to be resolved. He still needs someone to do DE hospitality. Colin Graidage and Rocky Johnson are new members of the DE Committee. Denny: Reported that he has populated the Events section of the web site. He has some missing information on the contact page… most notably a couple of pictures. Christie: Reported that Pay-Pal is up for the Goodie Store. Mark: Needs information about the March moving events by February the 20th so that he can get insurance for them (the deadline is because he will be on vacation after that). He reports that he has gotten most of the ads to Jan and is continuing to work on the others. Lisa: Passed around information on Slipstream advertising. Total annual ad revenue as of February was $14,750. She reported a new ad for The Complete Garage. Tracey: Admitted that after trying for a month to locate another restaurant in this general area, she was unsuccessful in locating one with a private room. The board agreed to continue meeting at Hackberry Creek Country Club. She stressed that she must give them a three day notice and encouraged us to keep her informed about our attendance and meal choices. She reported that the New Member Party went well. We had 12 new members, which is a lot more than last year. July 3rd would be our normal board meeting date, but it conflicts with both the 4th of July holiday and Parade. We agreed to move it to July 10th. Bob Bianconi: Said he planned to start the new Concours series with an easy event. If it is successful, then he will ramp up the event in the fall a bit. We discussed whether to include the Father's Day Picnic Concours in his series and decided not to for the first year. Jan: Reported that Mike Kuhn is now her assistant. She needs pictures of Mike, Bob Bianconi, Clint Blackman, and Caren Cooper for the Board, Officers & Chairs page. [Mark was seen later taking a picture of Bob B]. She further reported that the Slipstream deadline is now! She asked that everyone inform her about what is going on. There is no one author assigned to cover the recent New Member Party. Instead, she requested that everybody send her short stories about their experiences with new members. She has the new Ruf and Park Place ads. She wondered about the lunch in Lewisville that James is wanting? I think we decided that it was proper to allow James to have lunch… he chose Spring Creek Barbecue for some reason. Teri will organize Lunches in Weatherford real-soon-now… Teri: Reported that the 1st Rally was successful. It generated a whopping $77.65 profit, which she gave to Bob K. She gave the insurance waver to Mark and e-mailed the results to Jan. Charlie: Since James and Bryan did not mention the issue, he asked when the 2007 classification spreadsheet will be posted on the website. We discussed this and hope to have it up this week. Charlie finally got State Farm Insurance to bill him
instead of Bob Knight (after three tries). The Region owes Bob a thank you for his patience. Bob K: Reported that his version of our financial status agrees with the one that Jeff recently published in Slipstream. Bob will work with Dennis to see if Dennis' friend can audit our books. Dennis: Having missed the last three board meetings and upon discovering James was the new President, Dennis congratulated him. However, the meal and cookies must not have set well with Dennis, as he tried to eat the microphone. The recent Happy Hour at Uncle Julio's was good, but lightly attended due to the weather. The next one will be on the 15th of February at Go Fishâ&#x20AC;Ś then on March 15th at Saltgrass in Irving. Robyn: Reported that she likes Charlie, but not his idea about the Ladies Autocross School. [If you remember, he had suggested a way to require fewer instructors.] Travis: Reported that he was having problems running the macros in the online classification spreadsheet. Charlie and James will get with him off-line to help with this problem. Having no cookies left, the meeting was adjourned at 8:38.

You’ve Been Hiding Out There: I Know You Have by Bob Bianconi

356? 911? 914? 928? 924/944/968? Boxster? Cayman? Cayenne?
T
he “you” I’m referring to, are those of you who crave a genuine Maverick Concours. If you read the February issue of Slipstream you know Concours is on the agenda for this year. And, to get things kicked off in grand fashion, we will hold our first Concours at the annual May@Mayo’s event, Saturday May 5th. What could be better: great food, great friends and a Concours! So, are there any 356’s in hiding? Waiting for the chance to escape the garage? How about a few Sharks? I know for sure there are a bunch of 911’s – of all varieties - waiting to participate. And, let’s not forget our 914’s, 924-944-968’s and Boxster siblings. So what can you do to win a trophy? How about a fresh coat of wax, clean up the interior and clean up your wheels. We’ll be lightly judging these areas. We will not be looking into engine compartments or at the undercarriage. Because this IS a competitive event, the cleaner your car, the better your chances of winning. You want bragging rights while munching down that great Babe’s Chicken, don’t you?

Vice President, Mark Gluck commented that it was really nice to drive down the street and park in the midst of such wide ranging vintage Porsche cars. He’s proud that his 7-yr old Boxster is becoming a part of that heritage. Their house was even more spectacular with their amazing media room! The guys weren’t the only ones who appreciated it. Wendy Shoffit was particularly impressed with it being multilevel! Talk about stadium seating!

Bob Aines chats with Tom and Annette Snodgrass. Tom is there to talk about the upcoming Autocross Schools.
This new member is obviously finding Bill Dawson’s conversation quite entertaining. Bill spent his time explaining our Driver Education program and distinguishing how it differs from Autocross and Time Trial. New Concours chair, Bob Bianconi, entertains Social Hostess, Tracey Gross, with Concours Q-Tip Trivia. She is finding it quite enthralling!

Bring that â&#x20AC;&#x153;stuffâ&#x20AC;? that has been collecting dust that another member might get some joy from owning. Bidding will be in one dollar increments and materials offered will be at the discretion of the auctioneer. An explanation of the items offered must be provided by the donor to facilitate accurate presentation. The form below can be used for this purpose. Label each item also to aid the auctioneer in his presentation.

ISTOOK'S MOTORSPORTS 2729 TILLAR ST. FORT WORTH, TEXAS 76107 (817) 332-6547 (817) 332-6548 FAX We are now building and taking orders for Porsche 924/944's for SCCA, PCA and NASA racing for the 2007 season. With the addition of the PCA 944-SPEC (SP1-SP3) series, there is now a greater than ever venue to economically race these cars. In SCCA, you can have a GT2, GT3, EP, or ITA racer. With PCA, you can pick from a number of classes, dependent upon your car. Cars are built from mild to wild, depending upon what class you plan to enter and to what level you want to participate. Our experience building and racing Porsches goes back to our 911's in the mid and late 70's, 924's and 944's in the 80's in SCCA, IMSA GTU and Firehawk, PCA in the late and early 80's/90's, and Speedvision GT, Rolex GT and GT in 2000 up. In addition to the Porsches, we have had a hand in building five AUDI S4's for the Grand AM Cup, and a couple of AUDI TT's for SCCA. We can build on our inventory of chassis's, or take yours and develop it into the race car you want. Get ready for the 2007 season NOW!! We plan to attend and support as many race events for 2007 as our racing schedule will allow. Don Istook and B.J. Jones

LeMans Champion Davy Jones Joins Racers Ranch by Mike Gullatt
K
aufman County, TX; February 6, 2007 – While Racers Ranch is designed for passionate drivers with different driving skills, it will have one member with an experience level that is tough to match. Davy Jones, considered one of the top drivers internationally in the 1990s has become a member of Racers Ranch, the country club for car enthusiasts under construction just east of Dallas.
A driver on the winning team in the 1996 24 Hour of Le Mans, Jones also finished second to Buddy Lazier that same year in the Indianapolis 500. His driving resume includes seven Winston Cup starts in 1995 as well as eighth and ninth place finishes in the 1992 and 1993 International Race of Champions respectfully. “To have a driver of Davy Jones’ caliber take a look at Racers Ranch and decide it’s where he would like to drive and host events speaks volumes of the level of commitment we have to building a world-class venue,” said Racers Ranch partner Dan Gage. Jones, who lives in Lake Tahoe, Nevada, and is founder and principal of Fast One Inc which specializes in driver training and motorsport consulting. He said is thrilled about joining Racers Ranch and extremely impressed with the plans and passion of partners Gage and Bill Georgas. “Racers Ranch is simply a beautiful place,” said Jones. “Bill (Georgas) and Dan’s model certainly sets it apart from other racing facilities. With the shared-ranch, the equestrian center and country club aspect, Racers Ranch will be a very exclusive venue for its members.”
22
The Alan Wilson-designed road course also adds to the appeal of Racers Ranch to those passionate about driving highperformance sports cars Jones believes. “Alan designs and builds a lot of tracks,” he said. “Racers Ranch is his latest and greatest. I have driven the initial cut of the track. It is well thought out with a very nice flow through beautiful countryside. It will be tremendous.” Racers Ranch is scheduled to begin laying asphalt on the world-class 4 mile road course in the spring of 2007. Racers Ranch also includes a 1,300 acre shared ranch with limited home sites surrounded by conservation preserved land. Owners will enjoy a variety of other club amenities including a secured-gated entrance, clubhouse, pool and equestrian center. Press Contact: Mike Gullatt Honor Marke, Inc.

Happy Hour at Uncle Julio’s by Dennis Chamberlain and very interesting story – I hope to hear more about it next happy hour.
U
Mark Gluck and Cathy Walther were discussing their recent skiing trip to Colorado, and their upcoming adventure to Kilimanjaro. I asked if they would make sure that Cathy carried the camera so we could see a photo of the summit (since the Las Vegas odds makers have established Cathy as being more probable of making it to the top). All the time, Mark was asking the bartenders about the ingredients of the drinks, Cathy Walther because certain liquors give him a headache. Sounds like a candidate for altitude sickness, wouldn’t you say? The real drink to try next time is the Uncle Julio special brew Sangria. Unlike Mark, I didn’t even want to know what was in it.

This time they brought their better half Janet (I believe she’s married to Mark). Janet and Mark have three girls graduating from high school this year. It’s a long

ncle Julio’s is one of the more recent additions to our happy hour circuit, coming to us courtesy of Monda Degan. This was one of those cold, wet weather nights, and as a result, I didn’t expect to see many Mavericks. As it turned out, we had a warm, happy group of thirty, all of whom apparently felt it was a perfect night for hot Mexican Food and (go figure) frozen margaritas.

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!
