Road Ramblings 

by Keith Olcha, Maverick Region President 

Last month I mentioned how much I look 

forward to February as the start of the 

racing season. It begins for me with 

the Daytona 24 hour Sports Car Race. 

Congratulations to Kevin Buckler and his Racers 

Group team for an overall win this year in the 

#66 Porsche GT3RS. I began buying parts 

through the mail seven years ago from Kevin 

when he and his wife Debra were the whole 

company. Kevin walked me through many an installation talking 

to me on my cordless phone while I was leaning over the car. 

Kevin still club races with PCA and is a regular guy. 

Of course, a GT class car never should have won Daytona 

in the first place. It was only because of problems with many 

of the cars in the brand-new Daytona Prototype class that 

attrition allowed a lower-category car to win first place overall. 

We’ll see how Grand-Am does this year. I still don’t think there 

is enough fan and sponsor interest in three sports car organizations- 

SCCA, Grand-Am, and American Le Mans. We’ll see… 

So what have I done so far starting in February? I attended 

Autocross 101 – an introduction to autocrossing, and Karen 

attended the ladies-only autocross school the day before at 

Pennington field. She loved it. I’ve only driven my Boxster on 

the street for the past three months and I forgot where the 

steering wheel was pointed a few times when the car was sliding. 

By the time you read this we will have completed our first track 

event, the Drivers Education at MotorSport Ranch. So what is 

going on in March? A full calendar, of course, as the weather 

improves. 

you can enjoy working on your own car with your hands and do 

a better job than most paid-services is good old-fashioned 

washing, waxing, and interior cleaning. It can be time-consuming 

but there is nothing like a clean Porsche in-and-out! There are 

various websites such as www.carcareonline.com that will tell 

you about techniques, and sell you the cleaning products. 

Another thing is an oil and filter change, and/or changing the 

pollen or particle filters on the newer cars. Again, this is about 

50% of the total scheduled maintenance on a daily driver over 

time. There are people who also think routine brake services 

such as pad replacements and fluid flushing are too complicated 

for the novice. It’s easier than you think, and in just a couple 

of years can save you enough money to spend more on other 

fun car-related stuff. There will be opportunities over the year 

to attend tech-clinics designed to demonstrate the things you 

can work on yourself on your Porsche. 

Finally, next month I’m going put on paper, a frequent 

dream of pretending what I would acquire (money being no 

object) if I had to fill a 15-stall warehouse collection of 

Porsches. Racecars, road cars, and special editions- you name 

it. All these cars should be drivable. While I might not put 

much mileage on them, they are theoretically able to run as 

intended with reasonable notice. Factory mechanics on call! 

Why don’t you all think about it also and email me with your 

favorite road and race Porsches. You don’t have to list 15. I’ll 

take everyone’s favorites and compile a weighted list of our 

readership’s 15, and my 15. Feel free to add your comments. I 

bet your list will be more interesting than mine! 

...I forgot where the steering wheel was pointed 

a few times when the car was sliding... 

There is one more set of autocross and time-trial schools, 

on March 8-9 this time being held at Mineral Wells, and the 

first regular timed-event autocross and time-trial weekend of 

the year will also be out at Mineral Wells at the end of March. 

Time trials are on Saturday, and autocrosses are on Sunday. 

The schools are low-pressure, instructive, and fun. Our first 

dinner social is March 1 as well as our first tour of the year 

along the Dogwood Trail to Palestine on March 23rd. Please 

look over the calendar on the first page for the rest of the 

month’s activities. 

March 15 marks the long-awaited and much-ballyhooed 

introduction of the Cayenne Sport Utility Vehicle. I don’t know 

about you, but feel as if this thing has been written about, 

talked about, and sneak-previewed for ten years already. And 

just when a gallon of gas is almost as expensive as a gallon of 

milk. I guess timing is everything. I read that every Cayenne 

they will produce for the next 18 months is spoken for. 

Hopefully our area dealers will have some unveiling parties, etc. 

I think the Cayenne and the Hummer H2 compete for the most 

exotic medium-duty tow vehicle. 

I have often heard people talk at our socials about what 

services they can or cannot do on their Porsches as far as owner 

maintenance is concerned. Many people think if you can’t 

perform a tune-up then you might as well not work on the car 

at all. I’m not sure about that. One of the biggest areas where

Curves Ahead 

by Matt Platts, Editor 

We have had another interesting February 

here in Texas. I can’t think of any other 

place where you can have 70 degree 

top-down weather within a week of getting 2 

inches of sleet that totally shuts down a metroplex 

of over 3 million people, then right back to 

pleasant sunny days just as quickly! One can only 

wish for nice weather on our event weekends, but 

that just wasn’t the case for our Ladies Autocross School and 

Autocross 101 at Pennington Field a few weekends ago. There 

wasn’t any precipitation, but the temperatures did nothing but drop 

for the entire weekend. The temperature was somewhere around 30 

degrees with a wind chill in the teens for the Sunday morning 

driver’s meeting! It didn’t seem to matter though, all participants 

and workers had a great time. 

Cold weather and all, the driving season is officially under way. 

February was chock-full of teaching and learning, and there’s still 

ground to be covered. Make sure to examine the calendar closely, 

you don’t want to miss a Drivers Education, Club Race, Autocross, 

Time Trial, Rally, or Tour because you failed to plan appropriately. 

Don’t forget that all of the DEs in our area fill up quickly. If you 

would like to get in, you must follow the entry rules to the letter. 

We are also quickly approaching the 2002 Tampa Parade in 

Maverick Minutes 

by Mimi Spreen 

The February board meeting was held on Tuesday February 4th at 

Lanean Hughes’ abode. Joe McGlohen provided barbeque for 

dinner. In attendance were Lanean, Wendy Shoffit, Mimi Spreen, 

Keith Olcha, Michael Wingfield, Mark Steele, Matt Platts, Noby 

Takahashi, Joe McGlohen, Teri and Charlie Davis, Mike Brodigan, Cody 

Sears and Bob Knight. The meeting started at 7:05 with Keith's "Round 

the Room" reports. 

Mike Brodigan advised that advertising was going well. We've 

added 2 ads and dropped 1, collected some back fees and plan on 

selling more 1/4 and 1/2 page ads because of the ease of handling and 

the higher revenue. Matt Platts stated that the February Slipstream is 

at press and should be mailed out in the next few days. 

Teri reported that the rally school was good, although it lost a 

small amount of money. Teri can forward the class materials to 

anyone who didn't go to the school. Parade for Dummies which was 

held at The Prairie House in Carrollton was well attended, even 

though we had our first SNOW of the year. 

Noby is planning on requesting insurance for the upcoming 

events. Mark Steele said TT104 had 25 attendees, which gave 

everyone plenty of runs. Wendy actually drove Mitch's Miata and beat 

Bob Benson AND Jan Mayo!! (Oops, should I not have said that ;-) 

Lanean said that the New Member Party was very well attended, 

the beautiful weather helped that I'm sure. I want to take a moment 

to thank Lanean for taking over my part of putting this party 

together at the last minute. My 100 year old grandmother passed 

away and I was in Shreveport for her funeral. Thanks again, Lanean. 

June. If you haven’t made your plans already, there may still be a few 

available spots, so act quickly! You should also consider renewing 

your PCA membership early if possible. Imagine the disappointment 

if you were trying to get into a DE only to find out that your 

membership had lapsed and you had to scurry to renew before the 

event. You can renew early online at the www.pca.org website. 

Once again this month, you will have the pleasure of reading 

articles written by our region’s members. The different points 

of view expressed 

by these talented 

writers is colorful and 

creative, you can 

really get a feel for 

being at the event 

right along with 

them. In fact, why 

don’t you attend the 

next event with them? 

Imagine how much 

fun you could have! 

Look for me at 

your next event, I’d 

love to say “hi”. 

A reminder of our 2003 “sleet attack”

Lanean also said that the February Happy Hour is at Sherlock's 

Pub. The April 13 Bus lot for AX will have bathrooms and concessions. 

It will also have bleachers. Due to an IRL conflict at TMS, we 

can't have the October 12 date, so the alternative is Oct 25 and 26. 

Sponsor checks for club race have been received. 

Wendy brought up an addition to the event calendar for July 12 

from 11-1 PM at the McKinney Library. It will be an informal 

concours for kids ranging in age from 12-18. Motion made and 

passed to add this to the calendar. 

Joe mentioned that 9 radios need to be replaced for a total of 

approximately $2300.00 which included carrying boxes. It was decided 

that we could wait until after the Feb DE to make the expenditure, 

since we would not need the radios until after that event anyway. 

Cody requested volunteer workers and instructors for the 

upcoming driving schools. Volunteers are needed for the Ladies AX 

on 2/15, AX101 on 2/16 as well as the Mineral Wells event on March 

8 & 9. Contact Cody if you are available and would like to help. 

Last, but not least, the truck! Charlie informed us of a truck that 

he has found. He actually drove it and said there were some things 

that would need to be fixed, but overall it looked ok. He checked into 

insurance coverage. A motion was made to buy the truck for 

$2000.00. The motion was seconded and approved. 

Meeting was adjourned at 9:10 pm.

Happy Hour at Railhead 

by Claire Athy 

Happy Hour Crew: Dennis Chamberlain, Tinker 

Edwards, and Mark Gluck 

One of our most fun and unexpected 

Christmas gifts this year 

was given to us by two of our 

children - a membership to the Porsche 

Club of America. We received lots of 

PCA materials in the mail, including 

"Slipstream". We looked them all over 

and observed that it seemed the 

Regional Mavericks Club had a large 

number of active members who did a 

variety of exciting and fun things. Then Dennis Chamberlain called 

and invited us to the Happy Hour at The Railhead on January 16, 

2003 to get acquainted with some of the members and to hear more 

about the various events that the club had to offer. During the phone 

Gregg and Claire Athy 


discussion, Dennis and my husband, Gregg, had a discussion about 

DE, which was the event in which Gregg was most interested. 

Since the Railhead was relatively close we decided to go to find 

out what it was all about. Despite being a bitterly cold night there 

was a good turnout for the get together, we enjoyed the drinks, the 

food, and good conversation. The big barbeque sandwiches were 

delicious, and the french-fries smothered with grilled onions were 

most unique. 

John and Marlo Pulliam 

We had an opportunity to meet quite a few Porsche owners 

and hear about the specific activities and events they each enjoyed. 

Since the Goodie Store was open and doing a good business, we 

ordered our name badges from John, Dee, and Demi Lersch. We 

did discover that most of the members with whom we spoke had 

belonged to the PCA for quite a few years and it was obvious while 

listening to them that their enthusiasm for their cars and the club 

had not diminished. 

I can't begin to remember the names of all those that we 

met, but in addition to Dennis and the Lersch’s, we had the 

opportunity to talk with Jay Easley and Anastasia Zaruba, Debbie 

Lage, Joe Rode, Annette Nolte, Mike Brodigan, Keith Olcha, and 

Tinker Edwards. They all made us feel welcome. 

Living in Fort Worth we probably won't make it to all the 

Happy Hours in Dallas but we'll try to make as many as we can. 

We're also looking forward to doing some of the tours and other 

scheduled events. According to Dennis, the March 20 happy hour 

returns to the Saltgrass Steakhouse in Irving, at 635 and 

MacArthur. 

It was an enjoyable Happy Hour and we thank all of you for 

your hospitality.

Carrera GT Unveiled in Geneva 

by PCNA 

ATLANTA, FEBRUARY 4, 2003 --- Stuttgart, Germany-based Dr. 

Ing. h.c. F. Porsche AG will unveil its V10-powered Carrera GT highperformance 

roadster in March at the Geneva International Motor Show. 

With more than 600 horsepower and racing-inspired technology, 

Porsche's top-of-the-line sports car delivers pure performance. 

The Carrera GT has a pure racing engine. Its 10-cylinder powerplant 

with dry-sump lubrication is based on Porsche's 5.5-liter V10 naturally 

aspirated engine developed especially for racing. For production, 

technicians at the Development Center in Weissach, Germany, have 

increased the displacement to 5.7 liters. Maximum output is 612 

horsepower (DIN*) at 8,000 rpm, with peak torque rated at 437 poundfeet. 

The Carrera GT has a top test-track speed of 205 miles per hour 

(330 k/h) and accelerates from zero to 62 mph (100 km/h) in 3.9 seconds. 

Its specially developed six-speed manual gearbox allows it to go from zero 

to 124 mph (200 km/h) in 9.9 seconds. 

Porsche developed a new construction concept for road and racing 

vehicles. The Carrera GT's monocoque and entire sub-frame are made 

of carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP), and Porsche has applied to 

patent this technology. Carbon is the only material that, after complex 

processing, can meet the requirements needed to combine top-class 

driving performance and driving dynamics with minimum weight at 

maximum rigidity. 

With attainable speeds of more than 186 mph (300 km/h), 

aerodynamics plays a crucial role. To achieve as high output co-efficients 

Photo Provided by PCNA 

as possible (so-called "downforce"), the Carrera GT has an underbody 

geometry that can only be found in similar form in pure racing sports cars. 

The underbody is completely cased in carbon fiber and provides an 

additional suction effect thanks to its rear diffusor and flow channels. 

The Carrera GT also features the Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake 

(PCCB) system. Porsche has supplied this component since 2001 and is 

the first manufacturer to include it in a mass-produced vehicle (the 911 

Carrera GT2). A global innovation - the PCCC (Porsche Ceramic 

Composite Clutch) - transmits power to the drivetrain. 

The first Carrera GT models produced at the Porsche plant in 

Leipzig, Germany, will be delivered to customers at the end of 2003.

Ladies Autocross School 

by Alicia Reich 

Have you ever washed your car at 5:30 AM? I did, in 

preparation for my first Autocross School, held on Feb 

15 at Pennington Field in Bedford. I am not an early 

bird by definition, so this took significant commitment on my 

part to finally fall out of bed. My Dad told me that the car had 

to sparkle like a gem or it would not pass Tech Inspection. Of 

course, I didn’t really believe that bluff, but I’m a wee bit of a 

neat freak and I just had the urge to make my car shine. With 

one exception, everyone else at the autocross school had also 

washed their car at 5:30 AM, because they were all clean despite 

significant recent rain! 

And what beauuutifuuuul cars they were! The Boxsters 

are neat, and the 911’s are cool, but my heart was won over by 

the new Mini. What a cute car! My snazzy ride is a 1990 

BMW 525i (Dad calls it “my daily driver”), which clocks at just 

under 100,000 miles. Dad bought it for Mom when it was 

three years old, and we’ve taken good care of it since, and it is 

now most definitely “mine”. 

...My dad told me that the car had to sparkle like 

a gem or it would not pass tech inspection... 

I am a junior at Ursuline Academy and started driving to 

school a year ago, six months after I earned my license. It took 

a while for Dad to acknowledge that I was a safe driver and 

grant me the freedom of the road in my own car. Although I 

have driven a go-cart on a number of occasions and definitely 

enjoyed it, I had never participated in a driving competition 

before. 

Like everyone, I went onto the track as a passenger in 

itially as my instructor zipped round the skid pad. While she 

was cranking the gas, little old me was mashed against the 

passenger door, heavy helmet jammed up against the glass.

After the first ride, I gulped and feebly told my instructor 

that I have had “minor” encounters with motion sickness 

throughout my life. Amazingly, when I took the drivers seat 

and slowly passed the first few cones, I found that I had left the 

motion sickness behind in the passenger seat! 

My instructor, Lisa, specified that the counterclockwise 

rotation should feel easier than running clockwise, but I found 

my best results when circling clockwise. After my third run 

clockwise, the facilitator at my station told me I was driving 

with only three wheels on the ground! I was shocked and 

started apologizing, but he laughed at my reaction and said a 

“three-wheeley” was a good thing. And it sure felt awesome, 

too!

After lunch, our group rotated to the slalom and braking 

exercises. Out of all the simulations, I found the braking to 

be exceptionally helpful. Lisa instructed me to calculate the 

braking distance of my car, and then apply that information to 

determine a braking point for each corner. This was excellent 

information and I find myself applying it constantly to my 

driving habit on the road only a week later.

Twice during the day I encountered the members of a 

girl’s soccer team in the restroom. The first time, one of the 

girls asked if I was a professional race car driver. I immediately 

giggled and said, “No, just having some fun.” But when I 

encountered more of the same team later in the day, I surprisingly 

responded with a proud “yup” before I even realized I 

opened my mouth. Could this be a subconscious recognition 

of my goal in life? The girls responded, “that’s so cool,” and 

as I walked out of the restroom waving bye to my new friends, 

I sighed giddily after my first encounter with fan adulation. 

I sure am glad the PCA and Maverick Region decided to 

let the younger crowd learn a bit about car control in an 

autocross setting. It was pure fun packed with good information 

(thanks, Lisa and School Crew!). I am planning to run the 

entire autocross series, so hope to see you there! Does anybody 


have a g-Analyst or Geez Cube that I can borrow or buy? I plan 

to write a report for my Physics Class using it once I find one (no 

kidding!).

Christmas at Hope Shelter 

By Lanean Hughes & Wendy Shoffit 

Once again this year, the Maverick Region was able to help 

out at the Hope Shelter during the 2002 Christmas season. 

Many members contributed gifts, stuffed animals, stockings, 

and stocking stuffers. Several deliveries were made during the 

month of December, all gifts were well received and enjoyed by 

everyone at the shelter. 

Dorothee Thielisch’s hand-made stockings were great, they 

were so big that some of the children could almost fit inside 

them! If you attended the holiday party at the Leibel’s house, you 

probably helped to contribute to the the huge pile of stuffed 

animals and toys under (and around) the Christmas tree. Can 

you believe that all of that plush was squeezed into Lanean’s 944 

Turbo for the trip out to the shelter? We joked that if Lanean got 

pulled over while driving home that night, that she would surely 

be able to talk herself out of that situation. What police officer 

could resist all those cute bears staring out of the back window? 

Here are some photographs to help us remember the season 

and maybe even start thinking about what we will be doing to 

help this worthy cause throughout 2003.

Autocross 101 

By Bob Lewis 

This past fall I purchased a Porsche. After the sale I was told 

that PCA organized great events. I was told that they provided 

an opportunity to exercise the car and your abilities. Some 

events were held at high speed race tracks. My eyes glazed over in 

anticipation. I later found a Slipstream and discovered where and how 

to join. After receiving my first Slipstream I saw an announcement for 

a DE event. I applied. There was a new member welcoming party 

which I attended. There I was encouraged to attend Autocross events 

to learn some of the potential of my car. After all, the car has too much 

speed to test it’s limits among the civilians on urban streets. 

When I enrolled in Intro Autocross 101 I thought that this 

venue might be classroom only. As it turned out a classroom might 

have been a welcome break from the weather, but that’s another 

story. The morning was filled with exercises for the car and driver. 

My group started with braking. Next we went to a counterclockwise 

skid pad. Then we went on to a clockwise skid pad. Lastly, we had 3 

slaloms with different cone placements. These were comprised of a 

constant distance between cones, an increasing, and decreasing 

distances between cones. 

We were assigned an instructor for the entire day. This 

instructor was with us each time we drove the car. What a great 

method to learn. At each exercise he drove first and explained the 

good, bad, and ugly of the strategy of that exercise. Then we got to 

drive and discovered the ugly, bad and sometimes the good of our 

maneuvers. 


We had a drivers meeting that outlined the morning activities 

and previewed the afternoon. My first exercise was the braking one. 

I launched the car at full throttle. At something past 7,000 RPM in 

second I hit the brakes. The car stopped short by a couple of feet 

Bob Lewis getting the “feel” for his new C4S 

from the target line. The next times I slowed somewhat, but each 

time was beyond the target line by a few feet. The car stopped in 

much less distance and time than I expected. 

18

The next two exercises were on the skid pads. We learned that the 

car would take a different radius with only a modulation of 

the throttle. I held the steering wheel in one position and was able to 

change the line of the car using just the throttle. Later in the day I was 

a corner worker at a skid pad and was able to see the other cars doing 

this very thing. Having both experiences was very educational. 

...At something past 7,000 RPM in 

second I hit the brakes... 

Next were the three slaloms. My instruction, Jason, showed how 

to blip the throttle at strategic places to bring the rear end around 

the cones. They were telling us that the best line is a straight one 

with only minor amounts of steering wheel action. I was to feel the 

handling action thru my seat. I either need more practice or thinner 

pants. I could conceptualize the throttle steering but didn’t seem to 

reduce it to practice very well. I need more practice with this 

skill. It should be pretty easy but would be tailored to your car’s 

performance. 

We broke for lunch. The event leadership arranged the cones 

into an autocross track. We had a drivers meeting. They showed us 

how this track layout was an extension of the very exercises we had 

practiced in the morning. They added a 360 degree hairpin which I 

never did do as well as had hoped. My times decreased except for the 

last time where I think I reverted to my instincts not the teaching. 

Knowing our times was great instant gratification. 

It was an awakening to see an automatic heavy Corvette have 

the fastest times among the students. The he and she drivers of this 

car were able to accelerate between the sections of the track and 

brake with their left foot. I did not practice that. He and his wife 

were experienced autocross participants according to my instructor. 

The Miatas displayed a great deal of balance and turned in good 

times also. Horsepower was not a much of a requirement for this 

track design. You needed great handling, knowledge of your car’s 

potential, and the skill to unleash it. 

The weather was cold and very windy this Sunday. The wind 

chill factor must have been well below freezing. There were twenty 

or so Maverick Region volunteers out in this miserable weather 

helping us newbies learn the ropes. These people must be fanatical 

and dedicated. They seem to be my kind of people. When I commit 

to something it takes an awful lot of bad things for me not to show 

up. All of the students owe a debt of gratitude to those organizing 

this event. My instructor did not drive a sport type of car to the 

track. I offered to let him drive mine during the fun runs, but he 

declined. After two days his face was wind burned, he was cold, and 

only wanted a hot bath at home. 

I had a great time. Thanks again to those that worked at this 

event.

Time Trial 104 

by James Shoffit 

It was early on a Saturday morning when we arrived. Wendy and 

I had spent the night at the new Best Western in Mineral Wells 

(four thumbs up, by the way!), and quickly noticed the cars were 

all covered in a thick frost. The drive to the MineralRing saw the 

temperature dip 30...29...28...27...26... where it stopped and started 

moving back up. The sun was soon up, and the clear day without 

wind slowly warmed us as we unloaded the car, set up timing, 

trailer, and course. 

Charlie Davis was taking a few spins in John Garcia’s 

Formula Atlantic race car to see if his size-12 body would fit in 

the size-5 car. Someone yelled “hey, the space shuttle should be 

passing over!” 

Eyes turned upward, we saw the streak – air molecules 

turned to plasma by the extreme force of an object flying 12,000 

...they both complained about their instructors 

and having students that just wouldn’t listen... 

miles per hour reentering our atmosphere 40 miles up. Then 

something seemed to fall off. Then another something, and then 

another. Soon the main streak split into two, and we heard a loud 

boom. We hoped that this was normal reentry process, but the 

radio soon confirmed nagging doubts. 

The time trial school went on, though it was somewhat 

delayed in the confusion. Once underway, students and 

instructors alike were treated to a year’s worth of time trials 

all compressed into a single day for one low, low price. 

The day started with everyone working on Course 1. 

Students and instructors were paired up, hopped in a car with the 

instructor driving, and were treated to 3 slow(er) laps each, 



who was the student and who was the instructor. They both 

complained about their instructors and about having students 

that just wouldn’t listen. 

Chuck & Noby disagreeing about the line 

Bill Miller learned the most valuable lesson – never bring 

really old tires to ANY event and try to drive on them. His spins 

resulted in at least 3 new nicknames : calls of “Spin Miller”,“Thrill 

Miller”, and “Tractor Bill” followed him around all day. 

(I won’t mention the times that Wendy and I ended up kneedeep 

in weeds – or John Garcia nearly lost a wheel) 

David Pang gives his aero kit a workout 

Many thanks go to the organizers and contributors – Kevin 

Hardison, Cody Sears, and Wendy Shoffit, to name a few. 

Let’s hope we do this one again next year – it was the best 

value I have seen! 

Ben Hartsell crosses the finish line 

followed by two more sets of 3 hot laps. Then the driver became 

the passenger in the former passenger’s car and again did a set of 

3 slower laps, followed by 2 sets of 3 laps. Then worker changes, 

rinse, and repeat. 

Then we set up course 2 and each entrant had 2 sets of 3 hot 

laps both as a driver and a passenger. Then the same was repeated 

for course 3. The day was finished off with a shootout for top 

time of day (which can’t be published since this was a school). 

The newest people to time trials received instruction from 

the most experienced drivers, while those closer together in skill 

were often placed together. Chuck and Noby are still fighting over

Rally School 

by Russell McLellan 

From the passenger seat, my partner’s eyes darted back and forth 

between the surrounding landscape and a set of directions that 

slightly resembled Egyptian Hieroglyphics as he tried to find the 

next turn. I watched the speedometer for any movement off 25, and 

tried to estimate how much faster I should go to compensate for the 

last Stop sign. 

Why were two people so concentrated on driving 25 mph which 

should be so easy for one of the best performance cars in the world? 

We were competing in our first T-S-D (Time-Speed-Distance) Rally. 

We, along with about 20 other people, had spent the morning 

attending Maverick Region’s Rally School. We learned how to read a 

tulip diagram, understand “all” the rules, e.g. what is a “rally road, 

and what is not. Most importantly for that day’s competition, what 

was “protection”. Which turned out to be a concept that would trip 

up many cars during the afternoon, including ours? 

We learned that the key to a T-S-D rally was to have the closest 

Driving a Porsche at 25 MPH. It Can be 

Tough... Really! 

time to the “perfect” time calculated in advance by the Rally master. 

That time would be measured at a series of checkpoints on course, 

and we would not know the location of those checkpoints. If we got 

off course we would not only add time as we found our way back, but 

we might actually miss a checkpoint. It seems that good Rally Master 

could, and would, put traps along the course that would allow us to 

continue on what appeared to be the course, but in fact wasn’t. 


We also found out why a Rally master was that diabolical. 

Besides making the course more challenging for us, they and their 

team, had invested about 150 hours and driven about 1000 miles to 

create our 50 plus mile course. 

So what was all this about? What’s a rally? Why are they so 

challenging, and maybe most importantly, why were we all doing this? 

A classroom full of enthusiastic students 

I had heard about road rallies ever since my fascination with 

sports cars had begun many years ago. I never really understood what 

was involved, let alone why so many people, both amateurs and professionals, 

were involved in rallies around the world. Maverick 

Region gave me the opportunity to get the scoop a few Saturdays ago! 

Teri Davis from the Maverick Region had assembled a great 

team of people to take our class through everything we needed know 

24

to compete in a Rally. We learned there are several different types of 

rallies. Routed rallies like the Time-Speed-Distance type that we’re 

going to do that afternoon, and Gimmick routed rallies. Gimmick 

rallies which might be a scavenger hunt, Hare and Hounds where the 

hare (The leader) leaves markers along the course and the hounds 

(the competitors) have to follow the route; and Poker Runs where 

instead of a time slip at each checkpoint you get a “card”. Finally 

Performance Rallies that include SCCA national ProRallies and 

divisional ClubRallies. These are done on blocked roads and are run 

like Routed Rallies. 

Then we were on the course. A course that required both of us 

to totally concentrate on our respective jobs. His as navigator, which 

I quickly learned I was totally dependent, and mine as driver, on 

which he was totally dependent. A great part of rallying is that it truly 

is a partnership and a shared competition. We found out later in the 


Teri Davis & Carey Spreen clarify with a diagram 

After a great morning of cramming our heads full of an amazing 

amount of information we were off to the roads around Texas Motor 

Speedway for some practice runs before the afternoon’s actual 

rally. We practiced how we would communicate directions, share 

decisions, and generally tried to figure out together how we were 

going to end up finishing with a respectable, and hopefully winning, 

time. 

Apparently Mark & Lisa had enough time to stop for refreshments... 

day that we managed to finish in the middle of the group, but more 

importantly had learned a lot and had met, and spent a wonderful 

day with, a group of terrific people. 

Would we do it again? Absolutely! In fact a few emails have 

been exchanged “plotting” our next event, and beginning to develop 

our strategy. We had a chance to discover a new and curiously very 



Clay & Betty Perrine accept their 1st place award 

challenging way to enjoy our cars, and share that experience with 

someone, in a very controlled, but also very competitive way. 

Some people drove the family van, while others were their in their 

“daily driver”. It’s definitely something that should be added to 

“must try” list.
