Shifting Gears: Fall Activities are Around the Corner
By David Robertson, Region Vice President
SAUL FRAIRE, Chef-Proprietor
1235 William D. Tate Ave
Grapevine, TX 76051
817-329-6995
rom time to time as VP, I fill in for our
F
President Jim Falgout when needed, so this
month I have the opportunity to welcome
you to our latest issue of Slipstream.
With summer behind us and the days getting cooler,
you will notice that the Maverick Region calendar is
heating up. There is a Time Trial on the 18th and a
Driver’s Education on the 24th and 25th. A Sunday
Drive on the 25th will include a fun route that arrives
during the Drivers’ Education at MotorSport Ranch,
where you will be able to observe and learn all about
the DE program and even take a few laps around the
track at a comfortable speed that will certainly get you
hooked!
Each month we have two lunch meetups where we
have a casual get together in different spots around the
DFW area to mingle and talk about -- what else? Our
Porsches! If you haven’t attended one of these lunches
yet you should really try to make it to one or all.
They are typically held in Lewisville, Richardson and
Southlake. I always meet someone new and the food is
always great!
To see all of the Maverick Region events in detail,
our club calendar at mavpca.org is always up to date, in
fact the best thing to do is to click on the “subscribe”
button on the calendar page and you will always have
the most up-to-date events right on your mobile device
or computer.
This is also the time of year when we take nominations
for our upcoming officer elections. Every year we
elect a President, Vice President, Treasurer, and Secretary.
If you are interested in any of these positions,
please send an email to nominations@mavpca.org. A
ballot will be available in next month’s Slipstream, and
voting will take place at this year’s Annual Celebration
in November.
Speaking of the Annual Celebration, you may not
be familiar with this new event. The Annual Celebration
is actually not a new event at all -- in fact, it is a
new version of one of the oldest events in the Maverick
Region: Founder’s Day. This year’s Annual Celebration
will be an event not to be missed, located in the hip
NYLO Hotel in Las Colinas. This is a celebration of
our club’s history and a big party to reflect on the year.
There is also a silent auction that is always chock full of
fantastic items that you will decide you must have. Also
celebrated is the newest tradition in our club which is
the annual photo contest. This is truly an event that is
not to be missed.
As you may have noticed by now with all the activities
that we put on around here, there are many great volunteers
that make our club so special. We always need one
more, and a great way for you to get involved is to reach
out to our Volunteer coordinator Jim Gallegos at volunteers@mavpca.org.
I promise that Jim will find a great
spot for you.
MAV OF THE MONTH
Joe McGlohen has been a member of PCA for 31
years. Over the years he has helped in many ways, including
most notably rallyemaster and safety chair. He
had retired from his regular volunteer duties a few
years ago, but when Bob Benson passed away suddenly
last year, he quickly stepped up to fill in until a new
chair could be found. Since then he has improved
safety at our
events and has
begun training
other members
of his committee
in hopes a new
chair will result.
He wants new,
younger blood
involved. For all
that you have
done and continue
doing, we
thank you, Joe!

Gimme a Minute: August Board Meeting
By Wendy Shoffit, Region Secretary August 3, 2016
he meeting began at 7:04
T
pm, with Vice President
David Robertson standing
in for President Jim
Falgout. David thanked
Social Chair Tracy Robertson for
adjusting to an emergency location
change. Presenting for Treasurer
Richard Solomon, the region has
about $126K in the bank. We will
begin invoicing Slipstream advertisers
as well as sponsors of the fall DE
events. Richard would like to have a
Boot Campaign fundraiser at one of
the Drivers’ Education events.
Social Chairs Tracy Robertson
and Phyllis Gallegos announced
that the event formerly known as
Founders’ Day will be called “Maverick
Region Annual Celebration”
and will be at the NYLO Hotel in
Las Colinas. It will be more casual
than in the past, hoping to increase
attendance. There will be food stations
instead of a formal sit-down
meal. We will still have a silent auction
with quality items. We will try
to have a photo contest. Teri Davis
suggested arranging for a photo
keepsake.
Volunteer Chair Jimmy Gallegos
said that initially the volunteer response
was strong, but has dropped
off. After soliciting input from members,
he will be more detailed about
future volunteer responsibilities.
Advertising Chair Cindy Bliss
has to step down because of work
conflicts. We thanked her for her
service. Bill Kruder will continue in
her place.
Nominating Committee Chair
John Hamilton reported that two
out of four existing officers are willing
to continue their roles and will
check on the others. As Membership
Chair, he stated that membership
continues to grow. We’re now at an
all-time high of 2582 total members.
As an employee of a local dealership,
he mentioned that displaying
our new marketing digital photo
frames has resulted in our region
brochures being picked up.
Editor Jim Hirsch says we are
printing 1900 copies per month.
Issues remain at 40 pages and 55%
is advertising, which can increase if
6 September
desired and still stay within our post
office limit. There was a misprint in
the July issue, but Ussery Printing
fixed it and printed a limited supply
of corrected copies for collectors.
The revised PDF was emailed to all
members. He will get pricing on
moving to full color. He discontinued
the photos of the month, citing
the themes limited photographers.
He will work with Bill Orr to continue
a photo feature in the future. Bill
Kruder will begin a new featured
article entitled “Kruder’s Cars and
Conversation.”
Bill Kruder has been a member
for 20 years, but is now stepping up
to help out with advertising. He has
been using the Google doc that was
created for advertisers and has contacted
most by phone. He has the
time and ability to do it and enjoys
it. His goal is to reach out four times
per year. Ad rates might need adjusting
after he researches comparable
publications.
Rally Chair Don Sebert has nixed
a summer event, but reported that
the next one will be near Halloween,
complete with costume contest.
He hopes for a fun event and a big
turnout. He is looking for input on
good start or finish locations. On
behalf of Monthly Dinner Social
Chair Stephanie Ho, he reported
that there were about 120 people at
the Hard Eight BBQ and everyone
had a great time. She will continue
working on future locations and
great deals on drinks.
Guest Mark Pitaressi is a new
member who looks forward to getting
involved. This is his second
board meeting, but has attended
several events already.
Historian Charlie Davis reported
that the photo workshop unfortunately
died because of a lack of suitable
location and declining interest.
He wants someone else to take the
reins for the photo contest. Several
in attendance offered to help, but
we need an overall contest chair.
Hope Shelter Advocate Bill Middleton
continues planning activities
to support and celebrate them on
the tenth anniversary of their new
facility. He will ask for donations at
our September DE (during parade
laps) with the focus on linens, especially
for the upcoming winter. He is
also hoping to have a good turnout
at the Hope Christmas Party in December.
PCA Tours Chair Tom Martin has
a drive planned from Duncanville to
the September DE. He is also looking
to support Hope and is asking
participants to bring a $25 Walmart
gift card. The October drive will
be to Rancho Sereno where we will
again have good use of the space for
catering.
Wendy Shoffit (for Carey Spreen)
requested we proceed with the approved
Slipstream archival project.
All present were in favor. The motion
had been passed prior, so no
vote was needed. She also reported
that Parade in Jay Peak was a great
success, particularly for Carey who
trophied in three out of the four
primary competitive events! The
2017 Parade will be in Spokane,
Washington and 2018 will be closer,
in Lake of the Ozarks, Missouri.
We have two DE events coming up
(Sept and Oct) and a Club Race
(with solo-only DE) in Nov. Based
on feedback from the national website
competition, a team of people
are now making significant improvements
to the region website. Stay
tuned. Lastly, presenting for Autocross
Chair Mark Schnoerr, the July
24 event was well attended, with 15
Porsche participants and a few more
spectators. See article and results
elsewhere.
Bill Orr presented a report on
the success of the use of the digital
picture frames. He wants three
more to continue the program. After
some discussion, a motion was
made to spend up to $660 for that
purpose. Don Sebert seconded and
the motion passed. Bill also showed
a presentation about the possible
logo change and presented other
options. After a bit of discussion, we
decided to have a survey on Facebook
or SurveyMonkey to solicit a
public vote on the favorite.
Lastly, the Mav of the Month is
Joe McGlohen for his efforts as
Safety Chair.

Destination Restoration: Just a Little Boost
By Ash Seidl-Staley
Photos Courtesy of the Author
orsches are fast. Currently, Porsche engines,
residing in either the front or back of
P
the vehicle, typically supply anywhere from
250 hp to 560 hp to the rear wheels at any
given time. This of course, depends on year, make, and
model. The 2016 911 Turbo, for example, boasts an
impressively powerful 520 hp, while the 2016 Boxster
range “only” tops out at around 375 hp for the Boxster
Spyder. Miraculously, each year these imposing horsepower
ranges increase. Take a sneak peek at the 2017
roster, and you will see that the 2017 911 Turbo claims
up to 580 horses, an increase of nearly 60 hp! One can
only imagine what the ranges will be in the 2020s.
For most classic Porsches however, those produced
before 1989 that is, power numbers are more humbly
limited to the 100-300 hp range. My tiny little 1974 914
2.0 would be lucky to break 100 hp, and my 1987 944
only comes up to just shy of 150 hp. Classic Porsche
owners know that it is not totally about the horsepower;
instead we focus on the handling of the car—for which
Porsche has remained second to none!
Many of my friends do not own Porsches. Most of
them drive Korean and Japanese daily beaters, and can
only dream about making a sports car purchase. When
these friends do discuss what vehicles they would love
to have in the garage, the
majority of the time only
American Muscle cars are
suggested. “It’s all about
the power,” they say. As a
response, I just smile and
nod because I know that a
sprightly little 911 SC can
out-track any Mustang, Camaro,
or Vette!
It is the combination of
both the raw horsepower of
the engine and the nimbleness
of the suspension which
truly make our cars great vehicles
to own and drive. This
being said, I still get asked all
the time about what one can
do to increase the power of
a Porsche. To be completely
honest, this is not an easy
feat to accomplish, as there
are many different options
available, and many different
routes one can take to
increase the power supplied
10 September
to his or her wheels. There are DME chips, MFI boosters,
and countless build sheets for carburetors which
can all be purchased
online, albeit at lofty
prices. Exhaust system
upgrades, custom heat
exchangers, and overthe-counter
ignition
units likewise increase
a car’s power output.
But I find that the best
way to squeeze a few
more horses out of
your car is to keep it
clean, light, and running
at optimal performance.
This begins with
Wayne Dempsey’s 101 Projects for your Porsche 911
is a valuable resource which describes many ways to
increase your car’s power.
Replacing your classic’s stock
ignition setup with an MSD
system can give it 10+hp
regular maintenance. Changing the oil, replacing the
air filter, replacing the distributor, replacing worn out
spark plugs, and using the right fuel all contribute to
the health and vitality of the powertrain. Additionally,
one can increase a car’s acceleration and improve shifting
by replacing/upgrading the vehicle’s clutch, adjusting
the clutch cable, and replacing worn out bushings
in the clutch cable system.
More invasive measures, like
fine-tuning the cam timing, readjusting
the engine’s valves,
and completely tearing down
the engine will similarly increase
horsepower yields.
No matter what one has decided
to do, if anything has
been done at all, it is important
to note that all of this
power and additional speed
need two additional things: a
strong suspension and adequate
stopping power. No
sense in having a 500 hp car if
you cannot keep it on the
road! Stay tuned for the next
couple of installments which
will look at these other areas
and show how we can continue
to improve the performance
of our vehicles without breaking
the bank . . . . Wrench on
Mavs!

TPMS Trivia: Let Your Porsche Tell You Its Tire Pressures
By John Hamilton, Region Past President and Membership Chair
s you already know, tire pressures are important.
But you may not already know that
A
if you own a recent-model Porsche, those
pressures are accurately adjustable without
the use of a tire pressure gauge. The tool to use is the
tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that you paid
for when you bought your Porsche. Not only will it warn
you when one or more of your tires are under-inflated;
it will also help you set your tire pressures to the correct
amount, including compensation for temperatures.
The pressures listed on your Porsche’s door sill and
in the owner’s manual are only correct at an outside
air temperature of 68 degrees F. If it is hotter than that
outside, and/or if you have driven your Porsche, those
numbers are no longer appropriate.
Also, most recent-model Porsches have different
pressure choices for “Comfort” and/or “Full Load.”
These selections can be found in the instrument cluster
on the screen that shows the tire pressures for each
of your four tires. Find that screen, press the select lever
or button, scroll down, and either select (checked
box) or de-select (un-checked box) the “Comfort”
and/or “Full Load” options according to your needs. If
you change the “Comfort” or “Full Load” settings, most
Porsches then need to be driven for a couple of miles
at speeds greater than 15 mph for the system to “learn”
the new settings.
Once you are satisfied with your settings, it is now
time to adjust the air pressures to match (or slightly
exceed) the Fill Info numbers displayed on your instrument
cluster. Once again, find the screen that shows
the tire pressures for your four tires. Select that screen
then select “Fill Info.” On this screen you will see + or
- numbers by each of your four tires. You should fill
each of your tires to 0, +1, or +3 (there is no 2). This
is regardless of the outside or tire temperatures, as
the system takes that into consideration. Personally, I
always set mine to either +1 or +3 since all tires lose air
over time.
That’s it! An overdue explanation of TPMS, how it
works, and how you can avoid spending the $10 or $20
on a tire pressure gauge. As a bonus, you’ll find that
you have fewer warning indicators coming on for LOW
TIRE PRESSURE since you have now set them correctly
based upon their actual temperatures.
Now get back to driving your Porsches!

Kruder’s Cars & Conversations
By Bill Kruder, Region Advertising Chair
Images Courtesy of the Author
ot many of you know
N
me, but I have been a
20-year member of the
PCA. I refer to myself
as the newest 20-year member. Not
until recently did I get involved and
find out that there are some pretty
interesting people in this club. And
with nearly 1900 members, there
must be some good stories out
there. So here it is the first of a series
of “interviews” that I would like
to share with you.
Bob Hagestad, 1964 356C owner,
PCA member since 1960
Bill Kruder and Bob Hagestad
12 September
WK: Bob, you have been a member
of PCA longer than almost anyone in
Maverick Region. What year did you
join PCA and why?
BH: Well, really I kind of joined
by accident. My dad had a VW dealership
in Cheyenne, Wyoming and
he wanted to open another. However,
VW said that they would let
him have another but it had to be
in Denver. Then as an extra incentive
they said, “We will give you a
Porsche dealership also.” Needless
to say, we moved. Once we opened,
our mechanic said, “We need to
race one of these.” And we did! We
took one off the showroom floor
and took the SCCA driving school,
which I guess at the same time
signed us up with PCA.
WK: So this was 1960 then?
BH: Yes, I think in the fall. Funny
thing was once we had taken the
car off the showroom floor we simply
returned it when we were finished,
like nothing had happened.
Not sure I could get away with that
today.
WK: Wow! And to think PCA was
only around for five years at that point,
and Maverick Region wouldn’t even be
founded until 1962.
BH: Well like I said, we joined
because we had just acquired the
dealership and thought it might be
fun to do a little racing. Of course I
had no idea back then I would have
moved here years later.
WK: So you come from a car-guy
family then?
BH: I do. I didn’t mention that
before my dad started selling VWs,
he had a Lincoln-Mercury dealership.
I actually worked as a salesman
for him. I think that was 1957, but
I was terrible. Think he told me I
needed to find another profession.
WK: Well how did that work out for
you?
BH: Funny how things work out,
but about 1968-69, VW and Porsche
came back and said “We want you
to separate VW from Porsche.” And
to do that they would add in Audi
so we could have a Porsche+Audi
store. Apparently my dad hadn’t
given up on me yet, so he worked
out a deal in which he would sell
VWs if I would take the other
“slower selling” cars. So that’s what
we did. We opened up a new dealership.
The Hagestad Volkswagen dealership
WK: So how did you end up in Dallas?
BH: About 1987, VW asked if I
would help establish a dealership
here. I didn’t want to move, so for
about three to four years I would go
back and forth. Then about 1991-
92, I took over Metro VW in Irving
and was an active partner ‘til I retired
in 2011.
WK: Now tell me what was your first
Porsche?
BH: Really don’t have just one
“first” because we would drive
which ever we felt like off the showroom
floor; kind of brings a smile
to my face to think about that.
WK: What do you own now?
BH: I have a 1964 Dolphin Gray
356C.
WK: Is this one off the showroom
floor?
BH: Oh no, I bought this one in
1984 from a couple in Denver who
had gone to Europe, bought the
car in Paris, and drove it on vacation
over there. They then brought
it back and enjoyed it for another
19 years. They put 80,000 miles on
it.
WK: How many miles does it have
on it now?
BH: I’ve only put another 9,000
miles on it since 1984.
WK: What an incredible journey you
have been on, with some of the best cars
in the world.
BH: Not bad I guess.
But you don’t want to
hear about my racing?
WK: So you continued
to race? Not just club
races?
BH: Oh, that was
only the beginning. We
bought the 904; I think
only two were here in
the States. We raced it
in ‘64 at the 250-mile
Daytona Continental,
in which we finished

fifth. This was really the start of my
professional racing, actually getting
paid.
WK: We’ve talked about an RSR –
how did that come about?
BH: In ‘71 several of us went to
Monte Carlo and stopped at the
Porsche factory to look at a new car
they were trying to sell; they had
to sell fifty before they could race
them. As it turned out it was the ‘72
RSR. I think I managed to get them
to sell it to me for about $18K.
Bob and his 1964 Porsche 356C
WK: And how did that work out?
BH: I brought it home and
wrecked it in a practice run. So
Peter Gregg had another car as a
spare but it was painted in his livery
so he sold it to me.
WK: Peter Gregg like in Brumos?
BH: That would be the guy
alright. Trouble was, we couldn’t
race in his livery, so we bought what
is like floral kitchen contact paper
and covered up his scheme. That
was at Elkhart Lake.
WK: How long did
you race the RSR?
BH: We raced the
RSRs from about ‘73-
‘77. I had some pretty
good drivers driving
for me and with me.
WK: Anyone we
would know?
BH: Let’s see: Skip
Barber, Jerry Jolly,
John Paul, and Hurley
Haywood. I might
be forgetting someone, but these
guys were good.
WK: Something tells me there is more
to the story . . .
BH: Yep! Then about ‘76-‘77
(I can’t remember for sure), we
bought our 934 turbo. Think we
paid about $50K back then for it,
which was a lot, trust me. Hurley
Haywood drove for me in all the
one-hour races and I co-drove with
him in the endurance races; we had
some pretty good success in it.
WK: And there’s the 935 too?
BH: Well it was really a 934 that
was converted to a 935, which they
referred to as a 934.5 in those years.
That was in ‘78 when we started
at the 24 Hours of Daytona but
DNF’ed. But then we came back at
Sebring and led the race until we
lost our brakes, but managed to
come in second.
Wow, and to think that I was only
coming over to talk about some
guy’s “tub” car!

PCA Tours Preview: “Everyone Loves a Parade”
By Tom Martin, PCA Tours Co-Chair
Photos Courtesy of the Author
fter a welcome summer
A
break, the Maverick
Region Sunday Drive
program resumes its
schedule with a drive to Motor
Sport Ranch later this month. As
icing on the cake, drivers will be allowed
onto the track for a series of
parade laps.
The drive is scheduled for
Sunday, September 25, at 9:00
am. It will start in the parking lot
of Costco, 250 E Hwy 67, in Duncanville,
and end at MotorSport
Ranch in Cresson. Drivers wishing
to take to the track for parade laps
will be required to present a $25.00
Walmart gift card to the Gridmaster
as a charitable contribution to
the Huffaker-Hughes Hope House.
You can learn more about this very
worthy club charity that our club
supports on the next page.
If you’ve never been to Motor
Sport Ranch (MSR), it is one of
the many “country club” tracks that
have sprouted up all over the country
that cater specifically to performance
automobile owners. It’s
primarily a track for club members
to have fun and go as fast as their
comfort level allows. The Maverick
Region holds most of its Drivers’
Education events there. In fact, a
Maverick DE will be taking place
the same day that we’ll be there.
We’ll take to the track during the
DE lunch break.
Speaking of which: lunch will
also be available, provided by Del
Norte Tacos for $10. Just indicate
in your RSVP if you plan to have
lunch at the track.
Now, I know what you’re thinking:
“What exactly is a parade lap?”
A parade lap is not so slow as to
emulate a vehicle towing a parade
float, nor is it an open invitation to
go flat out around the course. Consider
a parade lap as a “safety car”
lap. Not too slow, not too fast.
You get to drive the track, not walk!
As a final note, you may have noticed
the title of this article is “PCA
Tours”, rather than “Sunday Drive.”
That’s because we’ve decided to
change the name of the program.
Dispensing with the Sunday Drive
moniker in lieu of PCA Tours
aligns us with similar programs of
other PCA Regions. Plus, several of
our drives are held on a Saturday
rather than a Sunday.
So in the future, look for notices
of PCA Tours in this format:
FORMAT
PCA Tours
“Tour Title” – Tour Description
EXAMPLE
PCA Tours
“Everyone Loves a Parade” – Off
to MotorSport Ranch
Also, Bill Orr is now Co-Chair of
the Maverick PCA Tours program.
Bill is actively involved in several
club activities, and has demonstrated
proficiency in all of them.
As always, attendees are not required
to participate in the parade
laps, so if you desire, you could
head straight home after the Tour
on your own route.
If you plan on attending the
Tour, it is imperative that you RSVP
us before the Tour. Just shoot an
e-mail to tours@mavpca.org with
a simple “I will be attending (by
myself, with my wife, with a friend,
etc.)” and you’re in. When you
RSVP, it gives us an accurate count
to supply to the proprietor of the
destination. Plus, three days in advance,
you will receive an e-mail
with the following attachments:
a Garmin .gdb file of the route, a
route overview, and turn-by-turn
instructions.
Hope to see you and your
Porsche at the Tour and on the
track!
Our PCA Tours are one of our most well attended club driving events (as evidenced
by this photo, which may or may not have been taken at a recent PCA Tour).

Hope Shelter News: Walmart “Bucks for Bedding” Drive
By Bill Middleton
s has been mentioned
A
in an earlier Slipstream
article, 2016 marks ten
years since the new
Hope Shelter was completed and
dedicated. To mark this occasion,
the Maverick Charity Committee
has been working on some special
activities to benefit the Shelter, and
help newer Mavericks, who may not
be aware of the charitable work the
Region does, become familiar, and
hopefully, involved!
One group of items the Shelter
regularly needs is bedding
and bath items: consumables like
shampoo, soap, toothpaste; and
more durable goods, like bedding
(sheets, pillows, blankets, etc.) and
bath items like towels, washcloths,
and so forth.
At one time, we were looking
into getting such items from a
hotelier supply company – those
items tend to be more durable,
and less expensive, when bought
in bulk. The issue is – as one would
expect – they’re pretty plain.
The clients of the Shelter are
typically women fleeing an abusive
situation, and often with children.
We felt that it would be a good
idea – and provide less of an
“institutional” setting – if they had
bedding and bath goods that were
more lively and colorful. In the
case of the kids, it’s hard enough
having to leave home on very short
notice to get away from an abusive
situation, much less to go live in
an unknown place. Being able to
pick out bedding with your favorite
movie or superhero character gives
them something they can call their
own in an otherwise unfamiliar
setting.
To that end, the charity committee
is teaming up with both the
Drivers’ Education group and the
Touring group to collect Walmart
gift cards so that the shelter can buy
these necessities for their clients.
The DE and Tour events are both
the same weekend – Sept. 24-25 –
and all you have to do to help is get
to your local Walmart, and pick up
a $25 gift card. It’s that simple, and
your generosity will go a long way
to helping the Shelter with these
needs!
Cards from DE participants will
be collected during the midday
break on Saturday, and cards from
the Tour participants will be collected
before the charity laps are
run, so get to your local Walmart,
grab a card, and help Hope continue
its mission of helping others
in need!

Annual Celebration 2016:
By Tracy Robertson and Phyllis Gallegos, Region Social Co-Chairs
ifty-four years ago our Maverick Region was
F
founded. We had only 13 charter members,
and the 911 was still another year away from
being introduced. Wow, we’ve come a long
way! Today we have nearly 1900 primary members.
Every fall since the 1960s we have gathered and
celebrated what those original members started for us.
While we are quickly approaching fall in DFW, I know
the heat index was 109 F today; it’s time to start planning
for this historic and special event during which we
celebrate the past and present!
This year our Annual Celebration will be held Saturday,
November 5, 2016. Most of you remember this
event as our Founders’ Day Banquet, but this year we
have not only a name change but some other changes
too. We think you’ll find it to be the best of the past
combined with the best of who we’ve become.
In the past it’s been
cocktails and socializing
with other club members,
and included a
silent auction and, more
recently, a photo contest.
Then, we enjoyed
a sit-down dinner, while
dressed in our finest
“duds.” Many of us who
have attended have had
a great time, but we began
thinking, maybe it’s
time to make this a more
casual affair, including
Vice-President David and
Social Co-Chair Tracy
Robertson will attend in less
“formal” wear this year
softening up the venue.
Thus, the name change
and NO mention of the
phrase “Formal or Black
Tie Optional”.
Let’s get back to why this event is even called a Celebration.
After fifty-four years we have a lot to celebrate
in the Maverick Region:
• Friendships built around a shared passion for
our cars.
• A full calendar of varied events that allow opportunities
for everyone to participate.
• The contribution of many volunteers, making
sure our events are well organized, safe, and fun!
• A generous membership that eagerly supports
our charity, the Huffaker-Hughes Hope House.
So what can you look forward to at this year’s Annual
Celebration?
• An upbeat venue, the casual and chic NYLO Hotel,
centrally located in Las Colinas.
• Time to mix and mingle, catch up with old
friends, and make new ones.
• Our third annual
Photo Contest - more
details to come soon.
• Election of our officers
for the calendar
year 2017.
• Presentation of the
Richard F. Selcer Memorial
Award, given
to one member each
year for outstanding
contributions to the
region and inspiration
to others to do likewise.
• The Silent Auction,
where you can get
great deals on Porsche
Can you tell Linda
Bambina is enjoying
herself? You will too!
accessories and apparel, club driving events, jewelry,
dining, car repair/maintenance, and more!
And don’t forget, all proceeds go to Huffaker-
Hughes Hope House in Mineral Wells, a home
for victims of domestic violence.
So save the date, November 5, and be on the lookout
for more details.
You and your Porsche at the NYLO guarantee a wonderful
time will be experienced. This evening exemplifies the PCA
motto: “It’s not just the cars, it’s the people.”

tarting next month we are going to introduce
the Porsche of the Month contest.
S
Each month we will highlight a Maverick
Region member’s Porsche in Slipstream and
on our social media sites. All photos submitted will be
included in online albums on our various sites so you
will still be able to share your photos with your fellow
members even if you do not win.
The best way to submit your photos is through the
Maverick Region Flickr Group. You can access it here:
https://www.flickr.com/groups/maverickpca/
It does require a Flickr account, but that is free and
only takes a few minutes to set up. We chose Flickr because
it allows us to streamline the production process
and to download the highest quality version for printing
and online use. It also has a phone app for both
iOS and Android phones that allows you to take new
photos or upload existing ones. In order to use the
phone apps with the group you must first have a Flickr
account and join the Maverick Region Flickr group.
Flickr Phone Steps:
1. Sign up.
2. Log in.
3. Select the Groups Tab.
4. Select the Maverick Region Group.
5. Join if you have not already done so.
6. Click the Photo icon at the bottom in the middle.
Take a photo and click submit. Or click Library
and select a photo to upload.
7. Once the photo has been uploaded you have to
“share it” with the group.
From your Flickr app library select the photo you
wish to share. Then click on the Info icon.
Scroll down until you see the Groups section, then
click “Add Group” and select the Maverick Region
Flickr group.
28 September

You can also edit or add tags or a description here.
The photo is now shared with the Maverick Region
Flickr group.
Flickr Website Steps:
The process for uploading and sharing photos
through the website is much easier as it combines several
steps in one page.
1. Sign up.
2. Log in.
3. Join the Maverick Region Flickr Group.
4. Share or Upload new photos by clicking the Add
Photo button to share existing photos in your
account or click the upload icon to upload new
photos.
5. Bulk Upload makes it easy to share photos as you
can select multiple photos and add tags, descriptions
and assign them to the Maverick Group all
at once.
If you bulk edited your photos prior to uploading
you are done. Otherwise you will have to go back and
do them one at a time.
For more specific instructions and help, go to Flickr’s
online help here: https://help.yahoo.com/kb/flickr
Please upload the highest quality images you have.

Maverick AX Series: The Day They Paid ME to Autocross!
By Wendy Shoffit, Wearer of Many Hats
Photos by Mark Schnoerr
have been autocrossing
for a few years now
I
. . . . since 1998. I started
out not knowing ANYthing
and DNF’ed (went off course)
three out of my first four runs at
my first event. I’ve improved since
then. I’ve got a couple of region
wins, some national Parade trophies
and a few Parade Ladies’ Top
Times of Day. I’ve had some practice.
But nearly all of those were in
a 1978 911 SC and NONE of them
have made me money. Now race
prepared, “Ebony” is a little more
challenging to get out to local
events (race trailer, sticky tires, yadda
yadda yadda). We’ve WANTED
to compete, but just haven’t done
so in the past few years. Now that
we have the Cayman GT4, we have
REALLY been wanting to go play.
However, timing and unfortunate
circumstances have kept us away
until this past July 24, when I came
back early from a trip and thought,
“Hey, why not?” So, James graciously
spent his Saturday cleaning the
car, swapping tires, and getting it
ready for Sunday’s event at Lone
Star Park.
Every Porsche model can participate
We’d never driven with Equipe
Rapide (ER) before and weren’t
sure what to expect. When we got
there, we found our way to where
we were supposed to park and immediately
saw people we knew (Ed
Mayo, Julia Underwood, Carey
Spreen, Matthew Cords, and the
30 September
Almost 50 years of separation for
these hot cars - the 911S and the GT4
Schnoerrs). We also saw “other
car” autocrossers who have driven
with us and who we remembered
from our time “way back when.” We
found the timing trailer, checked
in, and got our work assignments.
We got the car emptied out,
tech’ed, and ready for action. After
the brief drivers’ meeting, we (run
group B) worked our corner, while
run group A drove and run group
C rested. We were so very glad to
be the first out to work, because the
day just got hotter! This reminded
us why Maverick Region stopped
autocrossing in July and August!
Anyway, after working, James
and I got our chance to put the
GT4 through its paces. Wow wow
wow! I am continually impressed
by that car! Now, we just need to be
better DRIVERS in that car to really
show what it can do. There is a significant
difference between autocrossing
a rear-engined car versus a
mid-engined car. We got quite a few
runs because of timing errors, but
that just added to the fun. James
was the winner this time between
the two of us by just 0.3 seconds.
Mike Syler was a P3 contender
{Note the use of “just” instead of
“a whopping” if I’d have beaten
him.) One of the cool things that
ER does is allow passengers during
runs. PCA’s insurance doesn’t allow
it, but theirs does. Ask Ed about
his ride with James on course. Fun
stuff!
So after we ran, it was our “rest”
time, so we headed to lunch with
Carey Spreen. We could have just
left for the day like others had
done, but we wanted to see what
their awards ceremony looked like.
So, after lunch we came back to
watch. It turned out that because
of the PAX calculations (aka “black
magic”), we ended up doing well
enough to earn actual cash monies!
James won our Porsche class and a
PAX payout, totaling $15 (paid for
lunch) AND a t-shirt. I won a total
of $40 for doing well in the ladies
Su Brude and her 911 Turbo
class and (I think) the Porsche
class. I should pay more attention
next time to WHY I won, but I was
just excited to get money! My entry
fee was $35, so I netted $5 COLD.
HARD.CASH! That paid for our
celebratory Frosties on the way
home.
So, not only did we have fun autocrossing
in our awesome car, love
spending time with our amazing
friends, but we also experienced
the joy of the ER PAX payouts! We
can’t wait to have fun again! Come
join us!

Around the Bend...
By Jim Hirsch, Managing Editor
ovelist C. S. Lewis wrote, “The future
N
is something which everyone reaches
at the rate of 60 minutes an hour,
whatever he does, whoever he is”. I
know for our members it feels like the future is
arriving even more quickly than that when they
are driving their Porsche.
But, leaving the 0-60 time or MSR lap time out of
the equation, our future as the Maverick Region of
the PCA reminds us again and again that it is not the
cars that are so important. The important thing is the
people. So, try to slow down the arrival of the future a
bit and look around you at the next Maverick event and
realize that each and every member has a story. And
then, make it a point to find out more about that story.
That is what I try to accomplish with each issue of
Slipstream. How well that intention is fulfilled is entirely
up to you, our Maverick members. Please make it a priority
to consider sharing your story via an article and
photographs and sending your ideas to me at editor@
mavpca.org. Or, if you hear of a good story from another
club member, encourage them to send it to me.
Speaking of member stories, I was remiss in the
August issue with the author attribution in the article
summarizing the Autos in the Park event. Andy Kay,
our Region Concours Chair, provided Bill Orr with
all of the information and results from the event and
should have been listed as a co-author. I apologize for
that miss on my part.
Moving to the future (at 60 minutes an hour), this
September issue of Slipstream introduces you to two ongoing
story features.
The initial installment of Kruder’s Cars & Conversations
is featured on page 12. Bill Kruder will interview
one of our Maverick members each month and provide
the resulting story for your reading enjoyment.
At the same time, you will get the opportunity
to “meet” a member whom you may not
know and learn a bit more about them and their
Porsche and personal history. In this issue, as you
read about Bob’s colorful history, you might also
be interested in learning more about his racing
exploits by visiting http://www.racingsportscars.
com/driver/results/Bob-Hagestad-USA.html.
As promised in the August issue, Bill Orr is providing
a detailed explanation of how to share photos via
our club Flickr site with his article on page 28. With
so many of our members taking photos at all of our
events, this now promises to be a very effective way to
capture those stories in images. Bill will use your submissions
to select a Porsche of the Month photo that
we will highlight in each issue.
Looking at our Maverick calendar, we have a busy
fall ahead of us with a multitude of club events. Please
participate in all that interest you and write a story
about your experience! In particular, look for more
information about our upcoming Halloween Rally in
the next issue and save the date as noted below.
