Road Ramblings 

by Keith Olcha, Maverick Region President 

The weather is changing and fall is around 

the corner. The last autocross this year is at 

Texas Motor Speedway in October, and it is 

also our charity autocross. By charity, we mean a 

portion of the fee will be donated to charity and 

the club will write off any loss from the event. A 

loss can occur since TMS is a relatively expensive 

parking lot to rent. They've given us a break on 

the price as their donation to charity, but it might 

not be enough unless we get 60-80 cars out there. This will be a low 

key event, novices are welcome, and we'll be helping out the Hope 

Shelter. Won't you please come and run the event? If you donate 

another $5-$10 it will be greatly appreciated. Please come out and 

drive, or make a small donation if you can, to the shelter. 

The Hope Shelter is our main charity. It is a refuge for 

women and their children who need some way to recover from 

the desperate and hopeless situation of an abusive home. The 

ultimate goal of the shelter is for them to leave and go out and live 

a normal and productive life. At the recent Maverick group 

watching of "Top Speed" at the Fort Worth Museum of Science 

and History, advance ticket sales netted the shelter $90. We're 

hoping the charity autocross can add another couple of hundred 

dollars. 

...watertight in up to 24 inches of water... 

On September 6th, a caravan of Mavericks driving 5 trucks 

full of donated items made its way to the shelter. Not only were 

the items greatly needed and appreciated (there were several 

families living there at that time) but there was also a breakthrough 

in the shelter's quest for materials on some maintenance 

projects they desperately need. Kevin Procaccino, an executive at 

Mercedes Homes and an avid Maverick club racer and DE 

instructor got his company to donate paint to repaint both the 

exterior and the whole interior of the shelter. Kevin had not been 

to the shelter before and he was affected, like many others, with a 

calling from within to help this worthy cause. Please come out on 

October 26th to TMS. 

Last month I mentioned that I missed out on a couple of 

opportunities to experience some great vehicles in August. Well, I 

made up for it in September. My first drive was in Myron Krupp's 

2004 GT3. Now the thing that amazed me most about the car was 

the redline. The maximum RPM of the GT3 engine is 8200 rpm. 

Unlike some Fiat's I'd driven in the 1970s, this motor had 

amazing elasticity; it was strong from 3000 rpm right up until 

8000 (I didn't do the full 8200). You can drive the car in third 

gear all the time, 20mph up until 75 mph. The second thing is the 

noise from both the engine mechanicals and the exhaust. Not 

offensive, but no need for sport mufflers here- it's throaty and 

raspy- forget a radio, this is better than Mozart or the Beatles. It 

seems much noisier than anything else on the road. It sounds like 

a racecar 50% of the time. One might think the ride would be 

harsh, but it wasn't much harder than my Boxster S with sport 

suspension and 18 inch wheel/tires. I drove a GT2 for a few laps 

at MotorSport Ranch, and I will tell you it was faster and stiffer 

than the GT3. But for $65,000 more, the GT2 had better be. If 

you are a track person, the GT3 will be more satisfying than a 996 

twin turbo as it has only 35 less horsepower, yet weighs 300 

pounds less - just about a wash, and with bigger brakes and 

wheels and no sunroof for added strength. It has a nice interior 

with leather and power everything. Even though we didn't turn it 

on, it even comes with a CD-radio. 

I also had the opportunity to take a drive in a 2004 Cayenne 

S. We held our September board meeting at Autobahn Motor 

Cars in Fort Worth and they gave several of us test rides in a 

Cayenne on their off-road course that they built adjacent to the 

dealership for demonstrating Land Rovers and Cayennes. What 

the vehicle can do off-road is amazing. It can climb and descend 

brutally steep grades, hold position on grades without using the 

brakes, and can lock side-to-side, and front-to-back differentials 

for incredible wet and dry traction. It can even pull with only one 

wheel having grip. It is also watertight in up to 24 inches of water. 

The only thing more impressive than the Cayenne's off-road 

prowess is it's acceleration and braking considering it weighs 

6000 pounds. When you consider the Cayenne's engineering and 

abilities off road and on road, you can see why it costs what it 

does. There's a lot of typical Porsche engineering in this newest 

product line. I can't think of two more opposite vehicles - a 

Cayenne and a GT3 - yet I did know and was driving a Porsche in 

both. Since I've been driving a 911 since 1989,which one do you 

think I liked best? 

One last item of note is a road rally on Saturday, October 

25th. I'll see you there; till next month then.

As one of only two dealerships in the country to earn the Premiere Dealer and 

Perfect Service Award - and the only one in the Lone Star State - we were, shall 

we say, a bit excited. Thanks to our incredible clients, our perfection-driven

Curves Ahead 

by Matt Platts, Editor 

Irecently realized that I’ve had my 924S for just 

over five years. A lot of things have changed in 

my life in those five years, but I still get a grin 

on my face every time I get behind the wheel. 

Anyone who knows me will tell you that I really 

enjoy driving (some might say that I enjoy it too 

much!), and this car sure makes every drive a treat. 

I’ve done several things to my 924S in these 

five years, mostly maintenance items like belts (a must on the 2.5l 

water-pumper), belt rollers, seals, plugs/wires, oil-cooler rebuild, 

water pump, a couple of sets of rotors, a few sets of pads (DE’s will 

do that), new shocks, sway bar upgrades, suspension bushing 

upgrades, and a few other odds-and-ends. The clutch went out at 

Parade, so a new clutch was in order, as well as engine mounts and 

some new exhaust hanger hardware. I also decided to have the air 

conditioner fixed since it’s been out for a couple of years. Now that 

I’ve had all that work done, I feel like my car’s almost new again! It’s 

just as much fun to drive now as it was when I first took it for a spin 

in New Hampshire before I fell in love with it. I plan on driving this 

car until it completely falls apart – and I don’t expect that to happen 

any time soon. 190,000 miles and counting. I know I’m preaching to 

the choir, but these cars (even the cheap ones) are a blast to drive, 

aren’t they?!? 

Maverick Minutes 

by Wendy Shoffit 

The September board meeting was held at 

Autobahn Motorcars in Fort Worth on 

Tuesday, 9/7/03. Autobahn graciously 

supplied us with fajitas from Dos Gringos, a nice 

meeting room, and special Cayenne test track 

runs. Thanks! 

In attendance were Keith Olcha, Bob 

Knight, Cody Sears, Teri and Charlie Davis, Jan 

Mayo, Mike Brodigan, Joe McGlohen, John Sandusky, Albert 

Sansores, Wendy Shoffit, Lanean Hughes, Graham Lane, new 

attendee Josh Roberts, and back-from-the-north Bob Ande. The 

meeting began at 7:25 PM. Keith allowed everyone to take a turn 

around the room. 

Cody – Time Trial #4 was successful with over 30 attendees. 

We made money on the event and overall are positive for the year. 

Since Autocross #7 (Oct. 26) at TMS will most likely lose money, 

it’s nice to have a cushion. We need to have trophies made for AX 

and TT season winners. A motion was passed to spend $2000 for 

trophies this year. He also brought up a discussion regarding the 

Wednesday pre-tech before AX or TT events. Although we have 

strongly encouraged attendance, turnout has been steadily 

declining. Board members were asked for recommendations. 

Suggestions included having a secondary tech location or doing 

away with pre-tech and having tech only at the track. Most agreed 

that we don’t want to discourage participation. Cody and Mark 

Steele will make the final decision. 

Teri – We have a rally on Oct. 25th, which will include parts 

We had a few non-regulars show up at the September board 

meeting that was hosted at Autobahn Porsche in Fort Worth. 

That was my first time to see their facility; it’s a very impressive 

dealership. As you would expect at a Porsche dealership, attention to 

detail was at the top of their list. The customer waiting area had a 

high-definition plasma screen to view while you are waiting for an 

oil-change (or waiting for the board meeting attendees to show up), 

there are snacks and soft-drinks, and a parts counter that carries 

shirts, caps, all sorts of cool Porsche trinkets (I think all the real 

"parts" are hidden out back somewhere). I’m looking forward to 

checking out our other area dealerships at the next two board 

meetings –Park Place in October, and Boardwalk in November. All 

members are welcome, so come by and join us! 

October is full of events, there’s a Happy Hour at a cool place in 

Irving, the RPM Café. We’ve also got a Time Trial, and a tour to 

Arkansas. Then the end of the month has promises to be fun 

multi-event weekend including a Tulip Rally, Halloween Party, and 

our annual Autocross to benefit the Hope Shelter. This Autocross 

counts toward season points, and it’s also going to be a test of how 

we plan to run the Autocross at next year’s Parade here in Fort 

Worth. Soon following all that fun is the Founders Day Banquet at 

the Speedway Club above Texas Motor Speedway. We expect a great 

turnout at all of these events, so I hope to see you there! 

of the Parade rally. She’ll advertise it with AX #7 and the 

Halloween party to encourage participation. She needs many 

volunteers to help run this event. We also might need to buy rally 

clocks and repair others. 

Charlie – Made changes to the Truxster, including an improved 

sound system. He will be trying some Parade AX logistics for AX #7 

at TMS. He has also been working hard on the timing display. A 

series of problems has him working on alternates. 

Mike – We have lost 4 advertisers, but have replaced one 

and Mike has leads on others. He mentioned the bylaws require 

several financial documents be reported quarterly, which Bob will 

work on. 

John – The September DE is full through the yellow group, 

with 100 entrants and 62 instructor candidates. We have set the 

DE dates for 2004 (watch calendar). He is still trying to work out 

details for a mid-week event at MSR this year. 

Lanean – (as Mimi) Halloween party is on 10/25. Teri will 

announce rally results & hand out trophies. Contact Mimi with 

other special requests. Holiday party location is set at the 

Walker’s. Lanean told of the convoy of packed trucks that went to 

the very grateful shelter on 9/6. Kevin Procaccino (Mercedes 

Homes) has agreed to buy paint for the shelter and others have 

donated their labor. She also mentioned Founder’s Day is coming 

up (11/8). DE Sponsorship has been set for next year. Thanks, as 

always, to our dealerships, Autobahn, Boardwalk, and Park Place. 

The meeting was adjourned at 8:45 PM.

Nacogdoches Tour - Find Every Dairy Queen in East Texas 

by John & Chris Hamilton 

Asmall but hearty band of ten cars took the Nacogdoches tour 

in August, led by perennial Tourmeister, Ted Glover. We had 

our 7:30 a.m. drivers’ meeting at a Wal-Mart just east of 

Dallas, then headed East to explore the back roads of East Texas and 

some Piney Woods country. Two Boxsters, a 928, a 930, a Turbo 

and several 911’s led the pack, with Bonnie and Mimi in the BMW 

as the caboose. Picture-perfect weather had been ordered-up, 

and that’s what we got (except for two 5-minute humiditycleansing 

showers). 

...all the Dairy Queens that we want to 

see for the next six months... 

Back roads took us to Palestine and the Texas State Railroad for 

our first rest stop. Then it was on east to Lufkin for lunch at the 

Crown Colony Country Club (only disappointment: Bob Lewis 

didn’t have his golf clubs!). After lunch, we took a roundabout tour 

Photo by John & Chris Hamilton 

of the Davey Crockett National Forest. The roads were clear, the 

scenery was beautiful, and the cars were humming as we cruised 

through the well-mapped-out tour. Along the way we stopped 

by our first of several Dairy Queens, for some well-deserved 

refreshments. Finally, we ended our day in Nacogdoches at the 

Fredonia Hotel. Dinner at D. Gar’s Bistro was delicious, with some 

great memories of the day to be shared by all. 

Sunday morning brought us another beautiful day for touring. 

We left the hotel at a much-more leisurely 9 a.m. and had an 

enjoyable romp to Rusk before driving to Palestine for lunch. 

Sunday’s lunch stop was at Don Jose’s, which had a special $9.99 

Photo by John & Chris Hamilton 

‘nuff said... 

D.Q. “Queens” 

all-you-can-eat buffet. What a meal! After a very enjoyable lunch, 

it was time to hit the roads and start to make our way back toward 

Dallas. But not without one last D.Q. stop! 

Every car worked perfectly throughout the tour, and the FRS 

radios kept us in constant contact throughout the trip and kept the 

pack together. Everyone got to meet a few new people, and got to 

know others even better. And our Porsche’s and BMW were well up 

to the task and gave us a great tour of East Texas, its restaurants, and 

all the Dairy Queens that we want to see for the next six months! 

Thanks, Ted for a great tour. The diet starts tomorrow!

Top Speed / Blue Mesa Social 

by Noby Takahashi 

Quite a few Mavericks made the trek over to the Fort Worth 

Cultural District to check out ‘Top Speed’ at the Omni 

Theater. Being a resident of East Dallas, this was my first 

trip to this area in few years. The Boxster S decided not to join me 

in my westward journey, I had to sneak in a Chevy truck amongst 

Porsches in the reserved parking area. 


...I managed to get our table 

in the food line before the 

Shoffit’s table... 

Between people that RSVP’d and drop-ins, my guess is that 

nearly 100 Mavericks showed up to watch ‘Top Speed’. Very 

impressive turnout. The show was quite enjoyable, watching 

Lucas Luhr driving around Road Atlanta (175 MPH on Turn 12?) 

in the GT3RS to Marla Streb taking a mountain bike down the 

bobsled course. Double thumbs up from this viewer! You can 

check out details at http://www.topspeedfilm.com. It did take me 

about 15 minutes after walking out of the OMNI to completely 

regain my balance. 

Afterwards, many of us headed over to a wonderful meal at 

Fort Worth Blue Mesa. Excellent choice, Mimi! As the highest 

ranking officer at the event, I managed to get our table in the food 

line before the Shoffits’ table (one of the first things I learned as a 

Mingling in the museum lobby after the show 


Maverick member 

was to get in 

front of James in 

a buffet line). 

Many thanks 

to KO for making 

the arrangements 

with the OMNI 

Theater and 

Mimi Spreen for 

taking care of the 

RSVPs and food 

arrangements. 

And thanks to all 

the Maverick 

members who 

showed up, hope 

you enjoyed it as 

much as I did. 

Maverick members took up most of the theater 




The “fun” table! 

There was plenty of great food to fill your plate

Caravan to Hope! 

by Lanean Hughes 

On Saturday, September 6, 2003, several 

Maverick members and friends headed to 

Mineral Wells to deliver items for the 

shelter. With 2 suburbans, 1 Explorer, 1 station 

wagon, 2 trucks and a van, we not only took up 

lots of space on 820 and I-20, but also at the 

shelter upon arrival. 

Many thanks to Carol Pierce of Boardwalk 

Porsche who spearheaded the staff there for 

donations, to Larry Irby/BWP for the use of his 

suburban, Bill and Sharron Dawson, Kevin 

Procaccino and their 3 great children, Brian 

Scudder, Clara Lewis and granddaughter 

Kristen, Mimi & Geneva Spreen, Wendy 

Shoffit, and Cody Sears (for the use of 

his truck). 

...help those who turn to us 

in times of need... 

After our visit to the shelter where we 

took notes of what is needed and what we 

can do to continue our support, we stopped 

off at the MineralRing to see the TT folks. 

Then we headed to Farmhouse Restaurant 

in Cool, Texas for some great home 

cooked food! 

The staff at Hope sincerely appreciate 

our donations, and as they said “It is 

through generous donations like yours 

that we are able to help those who turn to 

us in times of need!” 

We will be making another trip to the 

shelter soon, watch Slipstream for details!!

British GP & Porsche Super Cup Race 

By Steve Patti 

Photo by Steve Patti 

For 7 days in July, the UK becomes the place to be for 

professional golf and motor sports -- The British Open, the 

Goodwood Festival of Speed, and The British Grand Prix at 

Silverstone. For those of us blessed with the opportunity to travel 

frequently to Europe, attending even one of these events would be 

a treat. And so it was that a call from one of my clients for a 

meeting in Paris meant landing in the UK on the weekend of The 

British Grand Prix. I immediately went to work to locate a ticket 

for this event, despite its being officially “sold out” for six months 

in advance. A call to a UK ticket broker and $400 later I had a 

grandstand seat on Turn 1 and a parking pass. 

...I got to wear my PCA Club Race 

t-shirt and mingle with the locals... 

Buried in the 4-race line up was a Porsche Super Cup race 

just two hours before the F1 race and it would be my first chance 

to see the latest 996GT3 Cup cars in action live on European soil. 

Truth be known, I think I wanted to see the Super Cup race more 

than the other 3 races that day, including the F1 race. The event 

began with the Vodaphone Maserati challenge (GT race) at 9am, 

followed by the Porsche Super Cup race at 11am, followed by the 

F1 race at 1pm, and a vintage/antique race at 4pm. 

The journey to Silverstone from my hotel in London at 6am 

on a Sunday morning got the adrenaline pumping, including an 

express train to Heathrow airport for the rental car, a 70 mile 


The Super Cup race was everything I imagined including 

door-to-door contact in short carousels, cars off the track, 

textbook blocking moves exiting corners, and the roar of 

Porsche’s latest water-cooled power plants. There was even one 

incidence that us air-cooled guys tend to forget about – a blown 

radiator that dumped coolant on the track (luckily the driver 

took the car off line). There was one American driver (Long) 

who started in the middle of the pack for the UPS sponsored 

team and he fought courageously to 4th place with two laps 

left but couldn’t quite get himself a podium finish (no American 

has a podium finish in the 2003 Cup season). The only 

disappointment was that the Super Cup race was only 12 laps 

(equivalent to PCA Sprint). 

The winner of the race was Frank Stippler, a former champion 

and three-time race winner this season. His silver GT3 Cup was 

under heavy pursuit during the entire race after he made a 

couple of unbelievable passes to take the lead and then he had to 

pull out all the stops to defend his position against a very fast lead 

pack. As an aside, Frank was the guy who set-up the suspension 

on my Carrera RS ClubSport PCA race car (so no more jokes 

about all the nasty negative camber!) 

There’s a lot to like about the cars, tracks, and motor sport 

culture in Europe and for one day I got to wear my PCA Club 

Race t-shirt and mingle with the locals. The entire experience 

reminded me that while we don’t have a Super Cup series in 

the USA, PCA Club Racing does give us amateurs an alternative 

for getting our Porsche speed fix without expensive trips across 

the pond. 

drive at speeds of over 100 mph on the M40 motorway, and a 30 

minute “park and ride” excursion on a double-decker bus. Oh, by 

the way, I got passed on the M40 by a new 2003 Mercedes E55 

doing 120mph and I still managed to snap a digital picture of him 

blowing by, only to park two cars away from him at the track park 

and ride! 

While the facilities at Silverstone are very basic (not nearly as 

high tech as the Nurburgring), you get a sense of the history of 

this old airfield. A careful review of the track map, with its 

deceiving elevation changes and decreasing radius turns, and you 

know that it’s a PCA Club Racer’s dream.

Time Trial #4 at Mineral Wells 

by Mike Bridges 

Ever missed a couple of events, then when you came back you just 

couldn't believe how much fun they were? Well, due to family 

commitments I missed the last two time trials, and couldn't believe 

what an absolute blast I had when I returned! Turnout was pretty light, 

only 30 cars (come on, people, WHERE ARE YOU??). As a result, we got 

to run 6 laps in the morning and 4 in the afternoon, yippee! 

My run group was working first, and then running, so I got to work 

the start/finish line, which is usually not dull, and especially this time! For 

those of you who haven't run at a time trial, if you go off course, that's a 

DNF (did not finish). If you DNF twice in the same spot (which I've 

done), you get the black flag at start/finish to come off course, then you 

go back out with an instructor to show you what you're doing wrong. Of 

course, if you DNF AT the start/finish line, that puts you in close proximity 

to the course workers (got to have the flags reasonably close to be 

in the driver's field of view). When you DNF there multiple times, we're 

likely to start throwing the black flag at you, literally! Word to the drivers, 

WATCH THE FLAGS! Also to the course workers, if a Red flag is called, 

don't just stand at the station and hold the red flag up, the driver is likely 

to miss it. WAVE it like crazy and get into the driver's field of view (not 

dangerously, of course). OK, off my soapbox. 

Photo by Kevin Hardison 

NEVER gotten right! Decreasing radius, off-camber, just an absolute ball 

to drive! My best time of the morning was 70.3xx seconds, so my goal for 

the afternoon was to break into the sixties. Alas,‘twas not to be, as I managed 

to get down to a 70.30x, but no better. On the other hand, I had two 

...and blast off again to turn 4 which 

I’ve NEVER gotten right... 

consolations: first, I was one of the few to improve their times in the afternoon 

(which means I was getting better on the course more than the 

increased temps were slowing me down), and I took top time in my class! 

Of course, I was also mid-pack and caboose as well (the only one in OA). 

I can't wait for the next one!

Course #1 is my favorite, especially in the ‘Vette. It's the fastest, especially 

going into turn 3, the hairpin. I got it right twice, actually touching 

on the rev limiter in 3rd gear, about 108-110 mph (not paying real close 

attention to the speedometer!). Then it's HARD on the brakes, down to 

2nd gear, around the hairpin, and blast off again to turn 4, which I've

Tech Session at Boardwalk Porsche 

by Michael Wingfield 

On Saturday morning, September 13, about 30 Maverick Region 

members descended on Boardwalk Porsche for the Boardwalk 

Tech Session. Besides being greeted by the friendly staff at 

Boardwalk Porsche, Maverick members found an ample supply of 

donuts, kolaches, orange juice, hot cocoa, and coffee to help wake up to 

the business of learning about cars. 

The format of this event was slightly different than some tech 

sessions. This event was operated under a walk, look, and ask (Q&A) 

format rather than a formal presentation of a topic. To help spawn 

questions, Boardwalk Porsche had several cars on display in the service 

area, along with some automotive-related product and service vendors. 

Up on the lifts within the service area, sat a Silver Cayenne S, a 

black GT3, and a black 996 without an engine. The Cayenne served as 

the subject vehicle for John Gladwill’s Q&A on the new all-wheel drive 

...sent the airbag and 

mounting bracket soaring... 

suspension of the Cayenne. The GT3 served as the subject for Q&A for 

the composite brake components on this car. A new caliper, composite 

rotor and brake pads were displayed beside the GT3. Having replaced 

several rotors on my 951, I was amazed at the light weight of the 

composite rotor and the six-piston caliper. Finally, for anyone who 

wondered what a 996 would look like without an engine, one simply 

had to look up under the rear of the car. Also on display in the service 

area was a black Cayenne Turbo and a silver GT2. 

Not only did Boardwalk host show-and-tell on the cars in the 

service bay, but also they had several product vendors and representatives 

to answer questions about their individual wares. Pirelli Tires, Mobil-1 

Oil, and Xtreme Paintless Dent Repair (PDR) each had product and 

service information, as well as lots of free goodies available to give to the 

inquisitive individual. 

The gentlemen from Xtreme PDR held a drawing for a free PDR 

repair as a demonstration of their service. If you ever had a dent on 

your Porsche, now was the time to show it off as the technicians 

reviewed each dent in each car presented for service and drew an 

owner’s name from the hat. Dennis Chamberlain was the lucky winner 

of the free demonstration 

PDR and pulled 

his maroon Boxster 

into the service bay for 

all to see. Within a few 

short minutes, the 

guys from Xtreme 

PDR had removed the 

left air intake (with 

some assistance from 

John Gladwill, Porsche 

Master Technician), 

and smoothed out the 

dent in the left rear 

fender of Dennis’ 

Boxster as good as 

new. The Xtreme 

PDR guys are at 

Boardwalk Porsche 

every Wednesday, so if General Manager, Bobby Rodriguez 

you have a PDR need, 

call a service advisor and schedule an appointment. 

Cliff Blackshear, the Shop Foreman, then lead everyone outside for 

a demonstration of an airbag deployment. Cliff gave us some 

background on how airbags work, and then asked us to stand clear of 

the bag. John Gladwill next set off the airbag, which came from the 

passenger side of a 996. The sound of the explosion was deafening! 

Likewise, the force of the charge sent the airbag and mounting bracket 

soaring over ten feet straight up in the air, where it then floated down to 

the ground like a hot air balloon. Boardwalk Porsche President Bobby 

Rodriguez encouraged further discussion by relating a personal story of 

having been on a car when the airbags deployed. Other stories then 

began to circulate among those persons who had actually experienced

A close-up look at the Cayenne’s all-wheel-drive system

similar airbag deployments in accident situations. I found it 

remarkable that those relating the stories said they never heard the 

explosion of the airbag as the din of metal crashing and glass breaking 

drowned out sound of 

the airbag charge. After 

hearing several such 

stories, I count myself 

blessed to have never 

experienced such a 

situation. 

Finally, it was time 

to distribute the many 

door prizes provided by 

Boardwalk Porsche, 

Mobil-1, and Pirelli. 

Among the door prizes of 

shirts, caps, jackets, and 

Frisbees, were some very 

elegant gifts including a 

miniature model car collection 

set, a talking 

Boxster (which speaks in 

three languages), Pirelli 

calendars, and designer 

racing watches. 

Thanks again to Boardwalk Porsche (Bobby Rodriguez, Larry Irby, 

John Gladwill, Rick Jordan, Cliff Backshear, Hans Hoffmann, Carol 

Pierce, and Tracy Rathburn), and others that took time away from their 

Saturday to play host to some inquisitive Mavericks. Likewise, thanks to 

Xtreme PDR, Mobil-1, and Pirelli for participating in the tech session.

Porsche Announces 911 Turbo Cabriolet 

by Porsche Cars North America 

ATLANTA, GEORGIA, July 22, 2003 --- Porsche has 

announced it will produce the first 911 Turbo Cabriolet since 

1989. Arriving at Porsche dealerships in the fall of this year, the 

2004 Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet is based on the existing 

Porsche 911 Turbo Coupe, incorporating the Coupe's engine, 

body structure, four-wheel drive system, chassis, and suspension 

and brake systems 

Power for the new 911 Turbo Cabriolet, transferred through 

either the manual six-speed or optional five-speed Tiptronic 

automatic transmission, comes from a twin-turbocharged 3.6- 

liter six-cylinder engine producing 415 (SAE) horsepower. It 

propels the car from 0 to 62 mph (100 km/h) in just 4.3 seconds 

and to a top track speed of 189 mph (305 km/h). 

Taking styling features from the 911 Turbo Coupe, the 

Cabriolet incorporates the Coupe's three large front air intake 

cooling scoops, intercooler air intakes in the rear side panels, and 

a rear spoiler that deploys at 75 mph (120 km/h) and retracts 

at 55 mph (80 km/h). As found on all current Porsche 911 

Cabriolets, the Turbo Cabriolet is equipped with a power 

convertible top that raises or lowers in just 20 seconds. To 

maintain body stiffness, the 911 Turbo Cabriolet's structure is 

enhanced with reinforced side-sills featuring body panels and 

elements doubled in thickness, additional junction plates, and 

shaft reinforcements behind the B pillar. 

Like the Turbo Coupe and all Porsche Carrera® 4 models, the 

Turbo Cabriolet's four-wheel drive system delivers from five to 40 

percent of the engine power to the front wheels depending on 

driving conditions. The new Turbo Cabriolet is also fitted with 

the Porsche Stability Management (PSM) system as standard 

equipment. 

To ensure supreme stopping power at all times without the 

slightest fading, the new Turbo Cabriolet comes with four-piston 

fixed-caliper brakes plus inner-vented, cross-drilled brake discs 

front and rear measuring 13.0 in. (330 millimeters) in diameter. 

Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes (PCCB) are available as an 

option, setting new standards in terms of brake response, fadefree 

performance, low weight and a long service life. Eighteeninch 

light alloy wheels with tires measuring 225/40 on the front 

axle and 295/30 on the rear axle transfer the braking power to 

the road. 

The 911 Turbo Cabriolet comes with an extensive range of 

standard equipment. This includes metallic paint, full leather 

interior, a hardtop and wind deflector, Bose audio system and 

Porsche Communication Management (PCM) system comprising 

a double tuner, CD player, navigation system and trip computer. 

It will be available beginning in October of this year starting at a 

Manufacturers Suggested Retail Price of $128,200 U.S. and 

$187,800 Canadian. 

Porsche Cars North America, Inc. (PCNA), based in Atlanta, 

Ga., and its subsidiary, Porsche Cars Canada, Ltd., are the 

exclusive importers of Porsche vehicles for the United States and 

Canada. A wholly owned, indirect subsidiary of Dr. Ing. h.c.F. 

Porsche AG, PCNA employs approximately 200 people who 

provide Porsche vehicles, parts, marketing and training for its 204 

U.S. and Canadian dealers. They, in turn, provide Porsche owners 

with best-in-class service.

Past performance does not guarantee future results. Value 

Trust's inception date is 4/16/82. The investment return and principal 

value of the fund will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, 

when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. 

Calculations assume reinvestment of dividends and capital gains 

distributions. Performance would have been lower if fees had not 

been waived in various periods. The S&P 500 index is based on 

common stock prices, including reinvestment of dividends and 

capital gains distributions, and is generally considered representative 

of the U.S. stock market. Source: Lipper Inc.
