year, we’re proud to have earned all three of our<br />

manufacturers’ highest awards for delivering the finest<br />

possible customer satisfaction to our customers. Which<br />

proves the measure of a fine dealership isn’t which<br />

Road Ramblings<br />

by Keith Olcha, Maverick Region President<br />

The summer heat is upon us. There are<br />

also a number of hot indoor and<br />

Porsche-related activities to do this<br />

month. First, there is the Sunday, <strong>August</strong><br />

10th outing to the Omni Theatre and dinner<br />

social. Maverick Region has arranged an<br />

outing to see the new “Top Speed” film at the<br />

Omni Theatre in the Fort Worth Museum of<br />

Science and History. This film features speed in several<br />

forms including behind the wheel of the Porsche 996 GT3<br />

Supercup driven and narrated by Lucas Luhr, factory<br />

Porsche race driver. After the show there will be a buffet<br />

dinner at Blue Mesa. This should be a great get-together<br />

that even includes a Porsche parking corral provided<br />

by the Will Rogers folks. This is a great venue in which to<br />

bring the entire family and friends. There is also a two-day<br />

tour to Nacogdoches on the 23rd and 24th, where you can<br />

beat the heat inside the car (if you’ve got A/C), or drive fast<br />

enough to stay cool.<br />

Last month’s issue of <strong>Slipstream</strong> was devoted to our<br />

Memorial Day weekend Club Race. This month’s will feature<br />

coverage and reports about the annual Porsche Parade held<br />

in Tampa, Florida. Next year, of course, Parade will be held<br />

right here in Fort Worth. The headquarters will be the<br />

Worthington Hotel in downtown Fort Worth with an<br />

Autocross, a Drivers Education, and a Club Race held out at<br />

Texas Motor Speedway. For this year’s 48th annual Parade in<br />

Tampa, your <strong>Slipstream</strong> Editor, Matt Platts, his co-pilot (and<br />

...I never drove in so many tropical rainstorms<br />

and floods in all my years of driving...<br />

at Parade and on display at the Concours. Excellence<br />

Magazine’s most recent issue talks about how they can<br />

now be legally imported into the USA 15 years later and<br />

how you can buy one. The display of historic cars included<br />

several racecars (Martini 935, Gulf 917K) to admire. The<br />

cars competing in the Concours were a fabulous show<br />

themselves. A 904 GTS, an un-raced 934, and a 356 (that was<br />

so clean you could eat off the inner fender-wells) were the<br />

tip of the iceberg. I was constantly being reprimanded for<br />

getting too close to the cars and drooling on them leaving<br />

water spots for the owners to clean up.<br />

Of course the DE at Sebring on Wednesday was fabulous.<br />

I spent the night before at Chateau Élan - Don Panoz’s hotel<br />

on the grounds of the track overlooking the famous hairpin<br />

turn. With 88 cars on a 3.7-mile track, there was ample<br />

(is there ever too much?) track time. I spent six 30 minutes<br />

sessions in cars - five as a driver, and one as a passenger.<br />

Alas, I needed to be home by Sunday, so I had to miss the<br />

farewell banquet on Saturday night as I was putting the pedal<br />

to the metal.<br />

Maverick Region, won the President’s Parade Trophy for<br />

the region having the greatest number of cars present (given<br />

the distance traveled from the region to the Parade venue).<br />

In addition, there were about 50 Mavericks in attendance,<br />

and as a region, took a large number of trophies home for<br />

Concours, Rally, Autocross, and Tech-quiz. Congratulations<br />

to you all. It was great being in attendance with all these<br />

great folks, and I can’t wait until next year. Till next monthkeep<br />

the shiny side up and the dirty side down on the road.<br />

little brother) Billy and I caravanned together. He brought<br />

his 924S via trailer, and I brought my Boxster S on a trailer.<br />

Many people asked me why I trailered the Boxster rather<br />

than drive it? Well, with a set of tires for the autocross and<br />

Sebring DE, plus the supplies to prepare the car for the<br />

Concours, plus my luggage and a few tools, even the twotrunked<br />

Boxster is too small. I planned to (and did) enter<br />

several events. We left Friday morning before daylight and<br />

drove all day stopping near Destin, Florida that night. I can<br />

tell you that I never drove in so many tropical rainstorms<br />

and floods in all my years of driving. The second day had to<br />

get better.<br />

It did, the weather was better for the drive. We picked up<br />

three more Mavericks driving their cars- Ted Morgan and<br />

Bob Knight in Boxsters, and the Breithaupts in their 3.2 liter<br />

Carrera. Our caravan had lunch in Gainesville and arrived<br />

at the Saddlebrook Resort in Wesley Chapel, Florida in the<br />

mid-afternoon on Saturday. Parade is a week packed with<br />

activities. I especially enjoyed the Concours. If you’ll<br />

recall, I’ve mentioned in previous columns that I’d never<br />

even seen a real 959 in person. Well, there were two of them<br />

Curves Ahead<br />

by Matt Platts, Editor<br />

Wow, what a turnout for Mavericks at<br />

the <strong>2003</strong> Parade! We were very well<br />

represented and cleaned up nicely in<br />

the awards department, too. I ended up getting<br />

3rd place in my autocross group, I am quite<br />

happy with that. I would be even happier if my<br />

clutch hadn’t decided to throw in the towel at the<br />

end of the last lap. Good thing I trailered down<br />

instead of driving. Now I get to sell that trailer I bought so I can pay<br />

for a new clutch. Oh well, that’s just the way things go.<br />

I had a great time at Parade, as did everyone who I talked to.<br />

There were sooo many things going on every day, you really had<br />

to plan your activities carefully. I also was able to spend some<br />

time with my family while in Florida. My little brother, Billy, really<br />

enjoyed checking out all of the cool Porsches at Saddlebrook too.<br />

He fared well in at the kid’s activities by winning one of the<br />

electric radio-control cars that Yokohama provided as part of<br />

Maverick Minutes<br />

by Mimi Spreen<br />

The July Board meeting was held at the home<br />

of Lanean Hughes on Tuesday 7/8/03.<br />

The attendees were: Lanean Hughes, Noby<br />

Takahashi, Dennis Chamberlain, Teri and Charlie<br />

Davis, Wendy and James Shoffit, Keith Olcha, Lisa<br />

and Mark Steele, Mike Brodigan, Matt Platts, Cody<br />

Sears, Bob Knight, Michael Wingfield, Joel Nannis,<br />

Joe McGlohen, Jan Mayo and Mimi Spreen. Keith called the meeting<br />

to order at 7:05 and began with a 'Round the Room:<br />

Bob Knight - Financials are looking ok.<br />

Matt - July <strong>Slipstream</strong> will mail on 7/9. Matt also talked about<br />

<strong>Slipstream</strong> preparation and printing timetables. We will begin using<br />

new communication procedures with Ussery Printing in an effort to<br />

get <strong>Slipstream</strong> into member’s hands earlier each month.<br />

James - As discussed at previous meetings, we need a display for<br />

Parade autocross and also Maverick events. A sample board was<br />

shown with what will appear on the board including size of display<br />

numbers and brightness/ability to see numbers from cars. A motion<br />

was made for Charlie/James to buy this display subsequent to our<br />

demo if we like it and motion was approved.<br />

Mark - TT went well. The next one is Sept 6th at Mineral Wells.<br />

Joe - Safety issue - moving corner stations at MSR was discussed<br />

and Joe is working on with track owner and staff. This will be<br />

discussed at length at next DE meeting. Eric Erz is building a storage<br />

box for the radios which will cost about $100.00.<br />

Charlie - Truxter was checked out and found to be in need of<br />

some repairs. Brakes, shocks and tires have all been fixed or replaced.<br />

their sponsorship of the kids events. He already has big modification<br />

plans for his new car and expects to “run” it next year at<br />

our own Parade in Fort Worth.<br />

Now that we are in the heat of summer, it’s time to take a<br />

little break from our sometimes-busy driving schedule. But keep<br />

an eye on the calendar because we have a Time Trial and a Drivers<br />

Education coming up in September. I hope to have my car back<br />

in working order for those events. We’ll see how it goes.<br />

Maverick Region also has some great tours coming up,<br />

including a tour to Nacogdoches in late <strong>August</strong>, Palo Pinto in<br />

September, then Arkansas in October. If you have never been on<br />

one of Ted’s tours, now’s your chance. The one-day tours are<br />

great for getting out and giving your Porsche a good shake-down<br />

run, and the weekend tours give you plenty of seat time. My first<br />

tour was an Arkansas tour a few years back, the roads and scenery<br />

up there are just wonderful. I don’t think you could find a better<br />

place for a road trip within short day’s drive of the metroplex.<br />

Joel - First set of letters were sent out via email to those members<br />

who aren't renewing and some of the names came back as undeliverable.<br />

Next month, he will send out letters via snail mail. We have over<br />

1300 <strong>Slipstream</strong>s being mailed out including members, sponsors and<br />

advertisers.<br />

Michael - DE registered people up to Saturday morning and still<br />

had openings. Many other activities were in conflict with this date,<br />

including Parade, which is why the numbers were low.<br />

Lanean - Bobby Rodriguez appreciated seeing this issue of<br />

<strong>Slipstream</strong>. Boardwalk is letting Lanean use a Cayenne for the<br />

McKinney Library concours.<br />

Mimi - Post Parade party is scheduled for Sat. July 26 and so far<br />

have no RSVP's. A paper was passed so people could sign up for this<br />

social as well as the <strong>August</strong> social at the OMNI and dinner at Blue<br />

Mesa.<br />

Mike Brodigan - One new 1/2 page ad has been added. It is now<br />

renewal time, so advertisers will be contacted about renewing. Mike<br />

also requested that we publish our financial statement in <strong>Slipstream</strong><br />

again as we have done in the past.<br />

Keith - Our intention is to have Board meetings at local dealerships<br />

to promote sponsorship and to introduce our board to them.<br />

Jan - Brought back bunches of stuff from Tampa Parade that we<br />

will be using for ours. It will need to be gone through and put in a<br />

central location. A separate storage unit was voted on to house only<br />

Parade paraphernalia, Matt had researched pricing.<br />

Motion to adjourn was made at 9:07, seconded and passed.<br />

Happy Hour at Champps<br />

by Dennis Chamberlain<br />

Happy Hour Crew: Dennis Chamberlain,<br />

Tinker Edwards, and Mark Gluck<br />

The wet and wild weather on<br />

June 12 kept a lid on the<br />

happy hour turnout. The rain<br />

had ceased before we started, but<br />

there was standing water on the<br />

edges of the Champps patio from<br />

the late afternoon’s wind and rain.<br />

On the bright side, 25% of the 34<br />

attendees were new members.<br />

Jeff Atkins, who could be the<br />

tallest Maverick member in history, was somehow able to<br />

squeeze into his 1988 911 to come to Champps. Mark Gluck<br />

advised Jeff that in a Boxster, height is no problem, because in<br />

the three and a half years that Mark has had his Boxster S, he<br />

has only had the top up for five minutes.<br />

We had some long-distance travelers too. Frances Kwan<br />

(1983 911 SC) recently transferred to Dallas from San<br />

I’d say that Jeff is a bit taller than Mark...<br />

Francisco, and Sean<br />

and Janet Rackley (96<br />

from the Orange<br />

Coast Region. Shannon<br />

and Roy Bryan (2001<br />

and have a CPA firm in<br />

Gainesville. Bryan Bell<br />

came in his 99 C2, and<br />

Chris Joe (2000 911)<br />

also made a brief<br />

appearance.<br />

As always, the<br />

us well.<br />

Father’s Day Picnic<br />

by Jean & Dave Frick<br />

The 15th Annual Father’s Day Picnic was held June 15th at<br />

the Copper Canyon home of Dave and Doris Casey. This<br />

was the first time we had attended this fun event, so as usual<br />

the “new kids on the block” were asked to write an article for<br />

<strong>Slipstream</strong>.<br />

About 40 adults and a dozen children (in and out of the<br />

pool) enjoyed a beautiful day, good food, outstanding companionship,<br />

and a casual concours. There were 5 cars polished and<br />

...After a lot of fun and considerable<br />

splashing of water ...<br />

gleaming across the back of the yard. All were a glorious sight to<br />

behold, but when voting was complete, 1st Place went to the 1974<br />

911S owned by Michael and Michele DeJong. A close 2nd went<br />

to the 1994 Speedster owned by Alan and Linda Bambina.<br />

Arriving after the judging was complete were David and Sonya<br />

Flanders in their red 1964 356.<br />

Another highlight of the afternoon was the tossing of water<br />

balloons. After a lot of fun and considerable splashing of water<br />

there was a tie – winners were father and son Joel and Ray<br />

Nannis, and brothers Karl and Erich Gluck. Father Mark Gluck<br />

joined his sons for a three-way exhibition –tossing around three<br />

balloons at a time.<br />

There was much talk about the upcoming Parade in Florida<br />

and we were introduced to Aubrey Sutton. She has a rare distinction<br />

– she will attend her 21st Parade, even though she is only 20 (she<br />

was 11 months old at her 1st Parade).<br />

A huge round of applause to the Caseys for hosting this event<br />

again and again. Matter of fact, rumor has it that they bought<br />

their place especially for Maverick Region. A sign on the door<br />

said “Tour of the house --$. 25”. Since we had never seen the<br />

“before”, Doris explained how each year between picnics they<br />

had changed or<br />

added to the<br />

house. Her tour<br />

included her<br />

awesome collection<br />

of pineapples.<br />

We were<br />

impressed by<br />

the wonderful<br />

decoration<br />

throughout the<br />

house, and can’t<br />

wait till next<br />

year to check<br />

out the changes<br />

and additions.<br />

Florida Parade Concours<br />

by Ed Mayo<br />

Photo by Matt Platts<br />

The host region for this year’s Parade was the Suncoast<br />

Region, however after having been there slightly over a week<br />

I wonder where the SUN in Suncoast came from? All it did<br />

was Rain. Saturday morning I unloaded my car, ran it through tech<br />

and then proceeded to erect my shade canopy, under which I would<br />

continue cleaning for the Concours. That was an overly optimistic<br />

plan. Shortly after midday Saturday it started to rain and it pretty<br />

much rained continually until about 4pm Sunday afternoon.<br />

Luckily I was able to do some work on the car in the trailer but only<br />

on the front and rear.<br />

Sunday morning I elected to go on the 10 mile tour that awards<br />

you extra points towards your concours score. It was spitting rain<br />

when we left so only four cars showed up for the tour. By the<br />

time we got back it was a full fledged down pour. So much for<br />

the cleaning I had already done. However, my day was great<br />

compared to the 356 Speedster in front of me whose engine<br />

literally exploded, sending a connecting rod through the case.<br />

...I wonder where the SUN in<br />

Suncoast came from...<br />

As I said earlier, for some reason the rain finally stopped<br />

Sunday afternoon and from then until dark Keith Olcha and I<br />

(the only Mavericks in the concours) and other car cleaning<br />

nuts worked to finish our cars for Monday’s show.<br />

However before the concours could happen there had to be<br />

some slight of hand on the part of the Parade and Resort staff.<br />

After several days of rain prior to Parade week it was obvious the<br />

planned golf course site would be a quagmire so the resort<br />

manager coerced all the residents of one of the condo complexes<br />

to park their cars elsewhere so their parking areas could be used<br />

for the concours. Just another example of no matter how much<br />

you plan . . .<br />

Yes, it did rain on the concours, but thankfully it waited until<br />

mid-afternoon by which time most of the judging was over. Now<br />

there are a lot of<br />

concours cars that<br />

can no longer state<br />

in their For Sale<br />

ads, “Never been in<br />

the rain”. Just ask if<br />

they were at the<br />

Florida Parade!<br />

I was very fortunate<br />

to win my<br />

class with my ’72<br />

911S and Keith<br />

Olcha did well<br />

placing 3rd. I don’t<br />

think the judges<br />

looked too hard for<br />

The rain subsides for a few moments dirt on my car after<br />

Photo by Matt Platts<br />

I explained to them<br />

that I thought there<br />

was a missing razor<br />

blade somewhere in<br />

the car.<br />

There were several<br />

Mavericks involved<br />

in the concours.<br />

Besides Keith and I as<br />

entrants, Jerry Sutton,<br />

Alan Bambina and<br />

I were judges. Mark<br />

and Lisa Steele, Fran<br />

Ussery and Jan were<br />

timers for judging<br />

teams. Erin Ussery<br />

worked as a runner<br />

taking scoring sheets<br />

to the scoring area.<br />

Also working were<br />

John and Dee Lersch<br />

helping direct car<br />

placements.<br />

Erin turned 15<br />

while at Parade so she’ll<br />

be 16 in a year (how’s<br />

the math so far?).<br />

Driver’s Education at MotorSport Ranch<br />

by Joe McGlohen<br />

The June Park Place DE at Motor Sports Ranch was blessed<br />

with gorgeous weather and a lighter than usual turnout,<br />

largely due to the number of Mavericks headed for Parade.<br />

Both participants and officials fell into the light turnout category.<br />

While Jan Mayo was sorely missed as Grid Empress, Jean Frick has<br />

certainly earned the title of member of the Empress' court. She did<br />

a great job! We also had several of the primary instructor corps<br />

absent, but that was not a problem thanks to the very long term<br />

planning and work of DE Chairman John Sandusky and Bryan<br />

Henderson. They have been building a strong reserve of very<br />

capable instructors waiting in the wings for their chance to share<br />

their experience with folks early in their track-time careers.<br />

Obviously Bryan and John's efforts paid off.<br />

great looking (Park Place designer) drinking water for all to use<br />

to keep hydrated. We needed it. Although the temperatures were<br />

not astronomical, the humidity was and I think we just about<br />

drank the ocean dry. Park Place also provided the entire Corner<br />

Worker contingent with really nice Porsche boutique white hats,<br />

which came in very handy, since there was little cloud cover and<br />

...Water, Water Everywhere...<br />

The most notable thing about the entire weekend was that<br />

Joel Nannis at Black Flag had a very quiet and sedate couple of<br />

days. I think I may have seen Joel dozing off in a chair once or<br />

twice. There were fewer incidents of naughty behavior logged<br />

(yes we keep records) over the course of the weekend than I can<br />

ever remember. And Ray Luedecke must be doing a great job at<br />

DE Tech, because all of the on course towing trips were due to<br />

very bizarre mechanical issues with obscure roots.<br />

Although I was very pleased to check-ride several students<br />

(all successful, and always a pleasure I might add) for promotions,<br />

the high point of my weekend was the time I spent riding with<br />

Myron Krupp in his pristine white Peter Greg Turbo and then in<br />

his awesome Red 935. Then driving the 935 for a few laps was the<br />

topping on the weekend.<br />

Water, Water Everywhere, and plenty to drink! Park Place<br />

was wonderful! Randall brought an Ocean of great tasting and<br />

shade was at a premium. The workers also had a real treat at the<br />

end of each day as those that wanted to got to ride a few laps with<br />

an instructor. They really appreciated that.<br />

For those of us on the DE committee, we were very busy<br />

filling in for our absent peers, but the event went reasonably<br />

smooth, and I am not sure any of the other participants realized<br />

we were juggling. I know that I did not have any trouble falling<br />

asleep Friday, Saturday, or Sunday night.<br />

Florida Parade DE at Sebring<br />

By Mark Steele<br />

Atrip to Florida would not be complete without driving<br />

the famous 3.7 mile track at Sebring. When Lisa and I<br />

arrived in Sebring on Tuesday night, we were in awe of the<br />

enormous track and immediately checked in to the Chateau Elan<br />

Hotel which happened to be situated right on the hairpin of the<br />

track (turn seven). Just imagine waking up bright and early in the<br />

morning and seeing these wonderful twists and turns that you know<br />

you will be attempting to drive through shortly. With this view of<br />

the track we also quickly realized that if you did not break correctly<br />

for the hairpin, there was a nice escape route to a tire barrier.<br />

...there was a nice escape route<br />

to a tire barrier...<br />

(I sure am glad I upgraded<br />

my brakes to Pagid<br />

orange before we left).<br />

I made sure I<br />

was out on the track for<br />

the entire 30 minutes for<br />

all three of my run sets<br />

because I knew this<br />

could be a once in a lifetime<br />

experience and I<br />

wanted to absorb every<br />

moment of it. What a<br />

Fabulous day on an<br />

exhilarating track!<br />

Photo by Mark Steele<br />

Eric Erz flies down the main straight<br />

The day started with some bright sun and cool temperatures<br />

just right for a great day of driving. Because many of us<br />

had never driven this track, we had twenty minutes of playing<br />

follow-the-leader with experienced drivers of the course leading<br />

the way. Being such a long track, it was difficult to remember all<br />

of the corners and by my second run set I discovered that there<br />

were about 17 different ways to take turn seventeen. As I became<br />

more comfortable with this track and the long straight in the<br />

back, I decided to push a little harder and reached about 140 mph<br />

Florida Parade Rally<br />

by Bob Knight<br />

Linda and I are avid once-a-year rallyists. We were fortunate<br />

to finish in fourth place at the <strong>2003</strong> Tampa Parade. We have<br />

pulled off a similar feat at another Parade, but have yet to<br />

score the big one. Since Linda cannot operate a manual transmission,<br />

I am the driver and she is the nagivator… I mean navigator.<br />

The Knight family got started rallying back in the 1980s. I<br />

say family because we used to strap our two daughters in the back<br />

seat of our 944 and give everybody a set of rally instructions.<br />

Some people may think that having the extra set of eyeballs might<br />

be an unfair advantage. Trying to referee at rally speeds three<br />

different opinions of what “turn right at the second opportunity”<br />

means is no picnic. Also, having a ten-year old, say, “I told you<br />

so” can be pretty humiliating.<br />

Parade rallies typically are run on Tuesday of Parade Week.<br />

On Monday, recent Parades have hosted a Beginners Rally School<br />

and an Advanced Rally School. Linda and I try to attend both.<br />

The schools offer the entrants a chance to brush up on rally<br />

terminologies and skills. The Boise Parade even offered a 45-<br />

minute practice rally. The practice rally offered a glimpse of some<br />

traps and tricks that you may encounter on the course.<br />

At the Tampa Parade, Maverick Region’s Teri Davis was the<br />

Head Master of the rally schools. Teri also had a panelist of<br />

expert rallyist to offer their advice and tips. The best advice they<br />

give each year is to stay on course and finish, and don’t worry<br />

...and Amy’s barf bag...<br />

Photo by Matt Platts<br />

“Standing room only” at Teri Davis’ Rally School<br />

While packing for the trip to Parade, we always toss in the car<br />

the “Rally Box” and the “Rally Clipboard”. The Rally Box is a<br />

twenty-five year old cigar box. It sets on the closet shelf the<br />

remainder of the year waiting patiently.<br />

The Rally Box contains the tools that we can use while<br />

running in the unequipped class. We have different colored highlighters,<br />

Post-it notes, adhesive tape, pens and pencils, and Amy’s<br />

barf bag. Amy’s barf bag, unused thankfully, is one of those<br />

paper bags you see in the seat pocket in front of you while flying<br />

commercial aircraft. The episode that necessitated having the bag<br />

in first place has faded from memory, but it stays with us, just<br />

in case.<br />

The most important tool in the Rally Box is the stopwatch.<br />

Ours is a cheapo model, but amazingly keeps fairly accurate time<br />

year to year. I am amazed that the battery last so many years. At<br />

Parade registration, each rally team selects an “out-time” which is<br />

the official start time for that team.<br />

On the day of the rally, you show up 20 minutes before your<br />

start time. At the start of each rally, you need to reset the stopwatch<br />

to the Universal Coordinated Time broadcasted by shortwave<br />

radio over WWV in Fort Collins, CO. You do not want to<br />

be 2 – 3 minutes late or early leaving the start line. Our watch is<br />

usually less than a minute off. Never throw away the instructions<br />

that come with the stopwatch when you purchase it. Stopwatch<br />

button functions, that seem intuitive when playing with your new<br />

purchase in the store, are forgotten at 7:30 a.m. in the parking lot<br />

at the start of a rally.<br />

Photo by Ed Mayo<br />

about your time. Experience being the best teacher, Linda and I<br />

typically fall for one or two of the tricks the rally master hides in<br />

the route instructions. Over time, we notice tricks that have<br />

bitten us before, and we successfully navigate the correct course.<br />

We try to not to get too stress-out by our mistakes and carry on.<br />

As Teri Davis reminded us, we are only racing for a trophy that<br />

costs $20, and it is not worth ticking off your rally partner or<br />

damaging your vehicle.<br />

Regardless of how we did, Linda and I know that if we<br />

make it to the end of the rally we can drown our sorrows at the<br />

ice cream social. Two, three or four scoops of ice cream with<br />

sprinkles tend to smooth things out. We swap stories and scores<br />

Carey Spreen gets ready for the Rally<br />

with other Maverick rally teams such as the Breithaupts and<br />

Suttons. It seems like each team has their own version of the rally<br />

course, based on where they feel for the various tricks and traps.<br />

This year we convinced Ted Morgan of Comfort, Texas to team<br />

up with Aubrey Sutton. Ted was talking about how they managed<br />

to see West Palm Beach on the rally route. Talk about being off<br />

course! Nevertheless, they made it back to the ice cream.<br />

So, Same Time, Next Year, Linda and I will be out touring<br />

the countryside around Fort Worth at the 49th Porsche Parade,<br />

hosted by Maverick Region. I encourage everyone to come out<br />

and have fun on the rally.<br />

Parade is also for Kids!<br />

by Lisa Steele<br />

The Florida Parade was not only full of fun for the adults, but<br />

the kids stayed very busy and were involved with many<br />

activities. Janet Ledesma (chairman of kids activities) did<br />

an outstanding job of organizing activities such as making<br />

various crafts, swimming in the super pool, a trip to Malibu, and<br />

an overnight stay<br />

at the Tampa<br />

Aquarium. She<br />

also managed to<br />

have pizza and a<br />

movie for the kids<br />

who did not attend<br />

the banquets.<br />

Parade for<br />

Kids would not<br />

be complete without<br />

Florida Parade Autocross<br />

by Carey Spreen<br />

For anyone used to the Houston summer climate, the Parade<br />

Driving Event at the Zephyrhills Municipal Airport would<br />

have made them feel right at home. For those of us used to<br />

more temperate climates, though, the humidity was brutal. The<br />

grid opened each morning at 7 am with timed runs starting for the<br />

first run group at 8 am, all in an attempt to be finished by the<br />

hottest part of the day. For the most part, this was a successful plan,<br />

with timed runs ending by early afternoon each day.<br />

But that wasn't the end of the day. Since Michelin was the<br />

official sponsor of the Driving Event, they were able to talk the<br />

event organizers into allowing them to use the same course for<br />

their "Michelin Test Drive," wherein you could pay $10 to have<br />

Michelin install pre-mounted wheel/tire combos on your car and<br />

followed by a sweeping left turn that headed you back toward<br />

civilization. Following this turn was a succession of box turns and<br />

chicanes that alternated from one side of the taxiway to the other,<br />

forcing you to look out of the corner of your eye to find the next<br />

gate. The final left turn toward the finish was pretty tight, not<br />

really allowing any "banzai" runs across the finish line. Penalties<br />

were as follows: hitting a cone cost 1 second; hitting a runway<br />

marker light cost $1500. Cones were the better bargain by far.<br />

...hitting a cone cost 1 second; hitting a<br />

runway marker light cost $1,500 . . .<br />

The first classes to run on Wednesday morning were the<br />

newly-christened Showroom Stock (SS) classes, in which NO<br />

modifications are allowed. Various classes in this category were<br />

for the Boxster, Boxster S, 993, 996, and 993/996 Turbos. Yes, there<br />

is an SS class for the Cayenne, too--they (or should we say "it")<br />

ran on Friday. The best run from any SS-category car was made<br />

by Parade Competition Rules (PCR) Committee Chairman Mike<br />

Lommatzsch of Loma Prieta Region in a '00 Boxster, with a time<br />

of 63.193 seconds, winning class SS1M.<br />

take a few test laps to see how they compared to your tires. And<br />

as if that wasn't enough, Porsche Cars North America sponsored<br />

the Porsche Driving Experience on Friday featuring two or three<br />

Cayennes (one Turbo, the rest S models). There was a long<br />

waiting list for this one, and runs continued until 4 pm on Friday.<br />

As for the course itself, Parade Driving Event Chair Dan<br />

Shields and his crew laid out a fairly long (more than one minute<br />

per lap for most drivers) course on two (mostly inactive)<br />

taxiways. As you started out, you made a left turn, tripped the<br />

start timer, and immediately made an acute right turn, staying in<br />

first gear. There followed an immediate increasing-radius left<br />

turn, where you shifted into second on the way to what looked<br />

like a random assortment of cones. However, once you got to<br />

where the cones were, you could see that it was a succession<br />

of gates leading you<br />

to the slalom. The<br />

distance from one<br />

cone to the next<br />

increased by a couple<br />

of feet with each<br />

interval, so you could<br />

gradually accelerate<br />

through the slalom,<br />

only to have to make<br />

it through an offset<br />

Autocrossers patiently waiting their turn<br />

There was a lone Maverick in the Showroom Stock category:<br />

Bob Knight, in his '00 Boxster S, won SS2M with a time of 65.152<br />

seconds. Bob is also the head of the PCA National Finance<br />

Committee, and Treasurer for the Ft. Worth Porsche Parade in<br />

2004. Bob is obviously a multi-talented individual, since he and<br />

wife Linda also took 4th place in the Unequipped class in the<br />

Parade Rally. Congratulations on both trophies, Bob!<br />

Also turning the fastest Ladies' Showroom Stock time of<br />

66.807 in a 996 (class SS4L) was Jutta Aldenhoff, who is the<br />

worldwide Porsche Club Liaison for Porsche AG.<br />

After SS came the Production classes, which allow limited<br />

modifications to tires, wheels, and suspension. Fastest time in the<br />

Production category was in a '99 996 (class P18M) driven by Richard<br />

Cowell of Gold Coast Region, with a time of 59.481 seconds.<br />

Fastest lady in the Production category was a 62.588-second run<br />

by Erinn Sommmer of Gold Coast Region, driving the same '99<br />

996 (class P18L). There are so many Production classes that they<br />

begin running on Wednesday and don't finish until Friday morning.<br />

Note that Jan and Ed Mayo won their classes in a car that,<br />

three days earlier, had won its class (Restoration-Touring-R2) in<br />

the Concours d'Elegance. Likewise, Keith Olcha's Boxster had<br />

taken 3rd in Preparation-Full-C1 in the Concours. No trailer<br />

queens here!<br />

On Friday the Improved and Modified categories ran.<br />

Improved category is for cars that have too many modifications<br />

to run in Production, but have no significant engine improvements,<br />

which would bump them into Modified. The Modified<br />

cars generally have larger-than-stock engines, as well as other<br />

significant changes<br />

(wider wheels and<br />

tires, after-market<br />

brakes, major body<br />

modifications, etc.).<br />

Fastest time in<br />

the Improved category<br />

came from Carey<br />

Spreen (rumored to<br />

be of Maverick<br />

Region) driving a<br />

'70 914-6 in class<br />

I2M with a time of<br />

Fran Ussery collects her timeslip<br />

after completing a lap<br />

59.947. Fastest ladies' time in Improved came from Maverick<br />

Region Secretary Mimi Spreen, driving the same 914-6, with a<br />

time of 71.563, spanking the rest of class I2L (sorry, I only<br />

imagined the spanking part--Carey).<br />

Finally, another lone Maverick ran his '70 914-6 in Modified<br />

category: Robert Huffman turned a very quick time of 57.629 to<br />

take 3rd place in class M4M. This is the class that contained the<br />

overall top time of day winner, namely National VP Tom Provasi<br />

(Loma Prieta Region) in his '70 914-6, with a time of 55.008.<br />

Tom's time is even more impressive when you take into account<br />

the fact that his 3.5-liter engine was only running on 5 cylinders,<br />

making it more of a 2.9-liter. Fastest overall time for the ladies<br />

was Barbara Beecher of Gold Coast Region, driving a 944 Turbo<br />

in class M5L with a time of 59.803.<br />

And what of the inaugural running of the Cayenne in a<br />

Parade autocross? Have you been on pins and needles waiting for<br />

us to get to those<br />

results? Well, your<br />

patience has finally been<br />

rewarded. (Drum roll<br />

please.) Joe Boucher of<br />

Santa Barbara Region<br />

ran away with class<br />

SS7M in his '04 Cayenne<br />

S with a time of 78.355.<br />

Actually, he did run<br />

away with the class, since<br />

he was the sole entry.<br />

Teri and Charlie appear to be having fun<br />

In all, Maverick<br />

Region represented itself quite admirably, with eight first place<br />

trophies, four second place finishes, and three thirds. You can<br />

view the full results on the Parade <strong>2003</strong> website:<br />

Getting Ready for Parade 2004<br />

by Jan Mayo<br />

In preparation for hosting Parade 2004, Wendy and I thought it<br />

would be a good idea to help Florida’s registrars Carole and Dick<br />

Kjellsen do some pre-parade Registration set up. We headed<br />

towards Florida to arrive mid-afternoon Thursday and hooked up<br />

with Carole and Dick. There are only a few things that we can be<br />

creative with on the Registration layout as the traffic flow has been<br />

working beautifully for many years. Wendy already has some ideas.<br />

It was great fun working with the Florida people and their<br />

excitement was building Friday morning as we set up for “their”<br />

registration prior to opening the doors for the early arrivals at<br />

noon. As soon as the doors opened we hit the road running.<br />

Wendy attached herself to Carole and became invaluable working<br />

the rest of the weekend as<br />

“Name Tag Chair”. Wendy<br />

has added that job to her list<br />

of Private Army staff as well<br />

as Goodie Bag Chair.<br />

Most of my week was<br />

observing the home staff<br />

doing their jobs trying to see<br />

what we can do similarly<br />

and what we’ll need to do<br />

differently. A downtown city<br />

location will be very different<br />

than the private resort.<br />

Jan announces next year’s plans<br />

I attended the Spouse’s brunch at the invitation of Eleanor<br />

Bobbitt and also the Sponsor Reception. Both were great fun and<br />

a bit of an eye-opener. Mercy, there is more to this job than I<br />

thought (not the first time I’ve had that thought).<br />

The Goodie Store had a bit of a glitch with only one cash<br />

register working on the opening day. They got that fixed and the<br />

rest of the week was smooth (Jan, make a note: test cash registers<br />

BEFORE we open the doors).<br />

...Whew, got that one down and now<br />

only 12 months to go till...<br />

Their Kids Program was great fun for the kids and the parents.<br />

Lisa was taking notes all week and is preparing a similar program.<br />

One of the more talked about events was the floating<br />

movie evening. They showed a movie at the pool where you could<br />

lounge in your inner tube and watch. Most of the rave reviews I<br />

heard came from the adults!<br />

The week was finally winding down and my head was spinning<br />

with ideas and thoughts. Then it was the final banquet and . . . Oh-<br />

My-Gosh I have to give my “Welcome to Fort Worth – Y’All Come”<br />

speech. Well, no time to get nervous now, so get up and pretend<br />

you’re Nike,“Just Do It”. Whew, got that one down and now only 12<br />

months to go till . . . . ONLY 12 MONTHS? Oh-My-Gosh!<br />

Remember to Renew!<br />

Contrary to magazines which start reminding you to<br />

renew 13 years before your current subscription<br />

expires, PCA only sends out one renewal notice. If you<br />

do not pay your dues before (or *slightly* after) your<br />

membership expires, you will be dropped from the<br />

national roster.<br />

That means you'll no longer get Panorama, <strong>Slipstream</strong>,<br />

or first priority into DEs! PCA makes it easy to renew<br />

with both mail-in forms and online registration.<br />

Besides, it's only $42 per year!<br />

If you are thinking of not renewing, please contact one<br />

of the board members on page 4 so we can<br />

know what we're doing that isn't suiting you. If we<br />

don't know that there's a problem, we can't fix the<br />

problem. We want you to be happy in the club and are<br />

doing our very best to schedule a variety of events for<br />

everyone.<br />

Help us help you and RENEW!<br />
