The Inside Track by Rocky Johnson, the Maverick Region President
I
n a bit of a twist, this month's topic is not about Porsches or even the Maverick Region, but rather about that good old American icon, the Corvette. As it happened, our normal summer sojourn to Breckenridge, Colorado coincided with a huge gathering of Corvettes that lasted several days. Apparently the cutoff for registration was 500 cars, but another 100 showed up as non-official participants. This could sound familiar to some Parade goers. As I talked with folks around town and at their various venues, I was struck with the notion that a car guy is a car guy, no matter what the marque. To be fair (and politically correct), there were a substantial number of car gals and car kids in attendance as well. As an impartial observer, it was interesting to note the spirited debates regarding the merits of old vs. new, hardtop vs. convertible, stock, OEM restorations vs. improved or upgraded parts. If you could have inserted air cooled vs. water cooled, rear engine vs. mid or front engine, etc. it could just as easily been a Maverick happy hour.
There was everything from a '53 that looked like it had just rolled off the assembly line, to later models that had been transformed into fire breathing machines with glow in the dark flame jobs. Unfortunately, on the day of the big event, July 29th, the temperature broke the record and set an all time high for the day of 84 degrees! On the positive side, there were enough cold beverages to sustain everyone. As the event ended and the Vettes were leaving town, a poster caught my eye that there was going to be a gathering of Mini Coopers the next weekend. Although I haven't met any of them yet, I'll bet they prove to be just as spirited in their discussions of old vs. new, etc. In fact it's rumored they are having screenings of both the original and the newer versions of " The Italian Job" to keep both schools happy. I guess the bottom line is, no matter what the marque, gatherings such as these always produce a great deal of "Car"maraderie.
The grand finale had all the cars lined up on Main Street. I must admit, even for a Porsche guy, it was quite a sight to behold.

From The Driver’s Seat by Wendy Shoffit, Slipstream Managing Editor
A
s I write this article, a dear friend of mine (and many of yours), Lanean Hughes, is dealing with the news that she’s developed lung cancer. It seems so trivial now to get the issue out, but I know that wouldn’t be what she would want. She has invested so much of her life giving to this club that anything short of fabulous just wouldn’t do. So, here we are. Please send your positive thoughts and prayers her way as she battles this insidious disease. If anyone in the world has enough spunk and tenacity to beat it, you’d better believe it’s Lanean! Hug your loved ones and tell them how much you love them. Godspeed, Lanean. We love you! On a bit of a lighter note, we have a winner from last month’s Napoleon Dynamite look alike contest. Taking first place is none other than Tom Snodgrass (#11), closely followed by my hubby, James Shoffit (#3), who swears he was JUST like Napoleon in high school. The winning prize is a Jumbo Sized tater tots. If you didn’t just snicker (even a little), seriously... watch the movie. Anyway, I don’t know how much YOU read on the internet, but I don’t explore it as much as I’d like. I could spend 24 hours a day for the next 7 years and never read even all the *interesting* stuff. Fortunately for me, James reads way more than I do. Some links he’s given by friends and co-workers, others he finds all on his own. He recently sent me a link to an entertaining, insightful, cleverly-written article about why people often behave
10
the way they do. The author is David Wong and the title of the article is “Inside the Monkeysphere.” (The direct link is http://www.pointlesswasteoftime.com/monkeysphere.html for those of you who have some free time and want to read the whole thing.) Basically, it’s all about the simple fact that you care the most about those who are closest to you in your life (aka “inside your monkeysphere”). It’s so much easier to yell at someone from the safety of your car to “Learn how to drive, moron!” than yell at a friend who pushed the wrong button on an elevator. Both people made mistakes, but you care more about your friend than you do the anonymous person on the freeway. This friend is inside the monkeysphere. It’s not a bad thing... it just is the way it is. We know all about the goings on in our own monkeysphere and don’t care AS much about things that are outside. The article is way more clever than I am and explains it far better. You can read it to get a laugh, insight, or just to spend time doing something other than the things you REALLY need to get done. I laughed a lot reading it and felt like I understood a little more about society than I did before. Using simple terms to understand people out there makes sense to me and helps to keep things in perspective. At least for today, I’m looking out from the driver’s seat in a little different way. Read it, don’t read it... it’s your choice. Either way I hope that you will join us at an event soon and maybe we can become part of each other’s monkeysphere.

Exploring the West by Teri Davis
A
group of Porsches and Mini Coopers gathered on July 9th to explore some of the territory west of the Metroplex. They saw some strange, interesting, and beautiful sights. They tell me it was a tough rally. There were, indeed, a few instances of having to understand the route rules to find the way. But it must not have been too tough for almost everyone figured it out and found the route. I know they did because the answers to the questions could only be found on the route.
I'm pleased to report that I heard several comments about the wonderful country roads and saw a lot of smiling faces at the end. Driver

Time Trial and Autocross - What’s it Really About? by Ray Nannis
A
s the heat vapors rise off the track at the end of the day, I asked myself what were the August 5-6, 2006, Maverick Region Porsche Time Trial #5 and Autocross #5 about? Well, mostly it was about 104 degrees. I arrived on Saturday an hour and a half early as the course was just being completed. It is always exciting driving to these high speed events, which is something new to me this year. This was an intimate event compared to the other events I have attended. On Saturday we only had 20 drivers which made things go by fast (some drivers were faster then others and most faster than me). The high speed course was the longest I had ever seen. Now, I have only seen three so that may not be impressive, but even experienced members, like my father, Joel Nannis, had to be shown the course. For those of you who know him for some reason he seems to be the butt of many jokes so I had to take advantage of the fact he did not know the course and asked for a new instructor. (He jokily replied that would also mean I would need to get a new car to drive since I was using his.)
Only about 26 drivers showed as we were competing with a BMW event and Porsche Parade, not to mention the heat that may have run off a few less brave members. The title of the course was “15 anniversary” and the “Toilet Bowl.” We were informed that it was Bryan and Andrea Bell's 15th anniversary that week. This obviously lead to more than a few comments about the title but we found there was no relationship between the shape of the track and the quality of the marriage. This was a fast track with an optional straight run with a 90 degree turn or a long wide run with a wide turn one, I found that corner one could not be as fast as I originally thought as I made a full 360 spin wiping out about 5 cones. I really enjoyed this course because again we had the ability for a lot of seat time, five timed runs and three fun runs for anyone who wished. We only had to work corners one time but this time most of us did get a partner. I got to work with Denny Payne, and I find it interesting just to get to know another club member. So the question again is, “what was this event really about?” It wasn't really the heat, it wasn't about the time each of us made (ok maybe it was about the time for some), and it really wasn't even about the cars. It was about a great group of people having fun and enjoying each others’ company and one of the friendliest competitions I have ever been around. It was joking and laughing at ourselves and each other. It was about families spending some time together. Darron Shaffer's father, Ted, was there. He worked and appeared to be having a great time. Bryan and Andrea's son, Conner, was there with his basketball, which made it about trying to wear that kid out. Finally, for me, it was about finding a way to enjoy spending time with my father. When I was in grade school I remember many times coming out to events, but then college got in the way, chiropractic school, starting a business, marriage and the list goes on and on. For some reason I never got involved with many of the club events other than the Fathers’ Day picnic. The reality is over the last few years I would say I have not really been involved with my father’s life more than an occasional family dinner. What this event and this season of high speed events represents is the first time my father and I have had a father and son weekend since the 1987 Parade. It has offered a bonding experience as an adult with someone very important to me. As someone who doesn't own Porsche yet, what I recognize is that the events are really about relationships. Each time I get to meet someone new, and get to know a little about them. I find friends, get closer to some and meet new friends. Most important I found a great way to build the important relationship between father and son.
Because of the low attendance each corner worker had to be by himself or herself, but the working times seemed very short. Most drivers stayed on course and few cones were hit. As a driver I really enjoyed the event because of the amount of “seat time.” Each driver received two sets of five laps on the early run and three laps in the second series. This was great for an inexperienced driver. Somehow the corner work stations went by quickly and I felt like I was in the car for a long time. We completed the entire event by 1:00pm. After the Time Trial most of us took a trip to Braum's for lunch. After lunch, it was back to the track to set up for the Autocross. Kevin Hardison had already picked up all the cones from the speed event so the set up actually went very quickly. Bryan Bell designed the AX course and led the set up team. He almost dumped most of us out of the back of the pickup each time he took off from a stop. He must have still thought it was his 911. We were done by just a little after 3:00pm and then it was to the hotel and the pool. Wow, that felt good! My dad and I stayed at the Executive Inn and the pool felt great. Dinner at the Italian Restaurant was fifteen of us reviewing the day and enjoying each others’ company.

Sunday came and we got a bit of a reprieve from the heat. It was still hot but, only in the upper 90's with an occasional nice breeze.

Murder Mystery Dinner Theater by Grant Imsande
by Pat Benson
T
here do you meet gun-slingers, a mule skinner that can't shoot his way out of a paper bag, a pint-size Catastrophe out to avenge her dead husband, a 'closet' dime novel author by the (pen)name of 'Dirk' who looks nothing like her name, a railroad tycoon with questionable 'ethics', and a sheriff caught in the middle of these nere-do-wells? The Maverick Mystery dinner - of course!
Audience members with the following attributes: ringing cell phones, fruity drinks, spaghetti strap tops, slightly balding pates, Hawaiian shirts, and/or seats on the front row managed to "participate" the most. Bob Lewis managed to attract a major portion of cast attention (participate a bunch) by having three of the six attributes.
I've been a mystery fan for years - just never seem to find the time to sign up. So I was delighted to see the Mystery Dinner on the calendar. Such Fun!!!
W
hirty-five Maverick Region Members and guests turned out on July 15th for " Write Between the Eyes" a presentation by Labniappe Productions' Lone Star Murder Mysteries.
The cast in the production: Marshall Jim Courtright, Catastrophe Kate, Buffalo Joe, Homicidal Hank, and Miss Sissy May Prissbottom put on lively performances involving lots of laughs and audience participation.
Meeting new people and catching-up with others, are two of my favorite things about Maverick social events - and this was no exception. I joined Betsy and Grant Imsande, and their friend Jean, to be the 'fourth' in the “Garage Sale” team. How our group got that name is still a mystery to me, but we hit it off instantly and had to remind ourselves to read up on the plot before the play started. I was delighted to see half a dozen people I haven't seen in months.

The theatre group that put on the play was brilliant! Performed in a small area, it was like being in the play - more for some than others. There was shootin' and hollerin' and carrying on, and eventually - oh my! - murder - with lots of laughter, general hurrah and 'audience' participation (I decided that, even
During the presentation, six teams of Maverick Region super sleuth detectives (Water Cooled, 3 Teenagers and a Wasser Pumper, Po Po Bustlers, Microft, Garage Sale and Mavericks) set out to solve the baffling case concerning the murder of a railroad tycoon, Horace Grimsley. The teams utilized incredibly insightful questions such as: “Was Buffalo Joe any relation to Buffalo Bob Smith?” to crack the case. Has anyone mentioned before that Tracey and Ed Gross do a tremendous job with social events? If so then this outing was not exception. Everyone had a great time. Thanks again to Tracey and Ed!

When the play was done, we had only 10 minutes to ask each character just one question - and it couldn't be “did you do it” or “did____ do it”. I'm not sure what the other teams asked - but we asked the Sheriff what size the bullet was - which turned out to be a good question to ask. Only two teams solved the mystery, but I think it's fair to say - we all had a grand time!

Many thanks to Tracey and Ed for another fabulous party! (When's the next one?) Also thanks to Wendy and the other participants that took pictures amidst the laughter and mayhem!

Texas Rangers Game by Wendy Shoffit
T
The game itself was a nail biter. The Yankees scored 2, then we tied, then we were up by 2 and they came back to move ahead by 2. Then we scored 3 more runs to regain the lead by 1. Then, in the 9th inning, they came back with 2 more runs to which we couldn’t answer. In a heart breaker, the final score was Yankees 8, Rangers 7. I’m convinced that rooting for the Yankees is easy. It’s rooting for everyone else that takes dedication! That didn’t stop us, though, from having a fun time together. It’s a shame more Mavericks couldn’t make it to the game. Hopefully that won’t deter Ed and Tracey from coming up with new, clever, fun ideas for us all. Thanks for the fun!
Two rows were reserved for us. James, Wendy, and Tracey were the only ones paying attention to the photographer.

Okay, so creating new lyrics to replace Jack Norworth and Albert Von Tilzer’s “Take Me Out to the Ball Game” isn’t my strong suit. Don’t worry, I won’t quit my day job. *grin* I just couldn’t start out the article with, “It was a hot day in Texas...” We all KNOW how hot it’s been. Surprisingly, though, it was pretty nice that evening. Tracey Gross arranged for some great seats for us, not facing the sun, in a nice shady spot on the Lexus Club Terrace Level (aka NOT the nosebleed seats!). Ice cream in one hand, cotton candy in the other, lemonade on the way... Hanging out with some cool friends. It was nice.

ake me out to the ball game... Take me out with my friends. Buy me some ice cream and Budweiser. I want yellow to win the dot race. Let me root root root for the Rangers. I really hate the Yankees. Cause it’s five, ten, fifteen Mavericks out at the old Ball Game.

The Eagle is Landing by Richard Miller

Photo by Richard Miller
here I was, tearing down a 2000 foot straight shifting into 6th, hitting the rev limiter, then heavy braking into a left over crest and a diving right, leading to hard leftâ&#x20AC;Ś. Well not quite as I was in David and Linda Cook's 4WD pickup bumping along the rough graded track at 5 MPH. Eagle Canyon Motorsports Park is well under way and looks to become a great race track. And here's a shot of what the down stream side of that left over crest into the diving right looks like now:
Eagle Canyon Motorsports Park Lots of dirt being moved (500,000 tons so far) and as you hopefully can tell, lots of elevation change.
their team working very hard in the Texas heat to bring a new track to the area. Of course, we have all had the experience of new tracks being planned and even having the rough grading done only to have the track fade away. But this one feels different. David and Linda Cook are dedicated to bringing a high quality FIA approved track to the area. The lime treatment of the dirt is now finished and the base course is about to start. (In fact by the time this makes into print, the base course may be complete.) And then PAVE, PAVE, PAVE! The track should be ready this fall. The only caveat seems to be how much time the Cooks will have to be away from the track to get Linda's Corvette Z06, named Shania, ready for the next 24 Hours of Daytona. I did mention they were racers did I not? Actually, car preparation should not take much time as Shania is actually being prepped by Nick Cole, son of Edward Cole, previous CEO of General Motors. Nick is one of the co-drivers when the Eagles Canyon Race Car heads for Daytona!!! According to David, the location of the track was chosen because of the elevation changes. As most of us know, Texas tends to be on the flat side. But Eagles Canyon Motorsports Park is sited on actual hills and canyons. The course has been laid out to take advantage of this. Those racers used to the banking of Texas Motor Speedway being considered an elevation change may be surprised while those who have raced at Hallett will be pleased. I take that back, every one will be pleased. To keep up with the pace of construction, check out www.eaglescanyonraceway.com.
I just heard of this new race track being built up in Wise County, just west of Sanger off of I35 a few weeks ago. Of course, if I had been paying attention, I would have seen the interview in the Fort Worth Star Telegram last March with Rob Lay and the Cooks. So I had to go visit. After all, according to David Cook, the track is using only about 200 acres of the over 400 acres they own. The rest of the area may become off road trails for motorcycles and other off road vehicles. Maybe I could fit a performance rally course in there. Or at least a RallyCross course.

Happy Hour at Razzooâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s by Dennis Chamberlain

ew faces seem to appear whenever we have our happy hour at Razzoo's in Irving. This time, one of them (or a group, I should say) belonged to Pam, Carl, and Taylor Perpich, who had recently purchased Mike and Maria Stafford's Porsche 911. All five of them came to the happy hour together, and there's nothing happier than new Porsche owners.
Tinker Edwards with photographer Dennis Chamberlain
Then there were Rocky and Judy Johnson - well, they're not new faces, but you should have seen their faces after they downed a jumbo mountain of Razzoo's ice cream and whipped cream. I am here to attest that they had no help despite several unselfish offers to lend them a hand (or a spoon). And they still manage to stay thin. So much for Atkins. It was good to see Wayne and Pat Chambers, the Scudder family, Bob and Sarah Jandrucko, Steven and April Dodd, Dan and Nan Nowak, and many others who don't regularly attend. For our September 21st happy hour, we're heading back to Cantina Laredo - hope to see you there!
