Road Ramblings 

by Keith Olcha, Maverick Region President 

Iwas glad when I saw Ted Glover’s 

published calendar of more one-day and 

weekend driving tours throughout Texas 

and the surrounding states for this year 

versus last year. Tours are one of Maverick 

Region’s most popular events-they always 

sell out. It warms my heart because it means 

we are using our Porsches as the good 

Doctor intended- we are driving them. In 

the midst of all the controversy of the Cayenne deviating 

from the bloodline of Porsche History, or the lack of a 

Porsche contender for the overall win at Le Mans the past 

few years, few can argue that for the past 50 years, nothing 

beats taking a Porsche out on the open road and driving it 

safely but spirited. Little has changed there. The tours are 

a fantastic opportunity to combine many recreational 

activities- history, dining, scenery, driving, spending time 

with friends, weekend-getaway, etc. After all, touring by car 

is Americana at its finest. Ted’s tours have sure come a long 

way from my first tours as a kid driving to Florida with no 

A/C and my family for twenty-hours straight in a 1969 

Buick LeSabre. If you have never done a tour with the 

region, you must make it your top priority this year. You 

won’t be disappointed. 

...February is the start of our 9-month 

high-performance driving season... 

autocross schools to prepare you for getting the most out 

of yourself and your Porsche. Read more about them in 

the following pages of this month’s Slipstream. What a 

great selection of driving activities and venues. I’ll be at 

a couple of the schools shaking off the cobwebs. The 

autocross, time-trial, and race track events offer a 

wonderful way to get the most out of our cars without 

worrying about tickets, accidents, bad judgment, etc. 

A special thanks to Jan Mayo for serving as our PCA 

National Zone 5 rep for 6 years. Now she gets to be in 

charge of our 2004 Parade! Jan’s replacement is the 

capable club racer Brooke Van Horne from Oklahoma. 

One final thought with respect to my comment above 

about the overall win at Le Mans. Frankly, sports car 

racing ain’t what was prior to about 1991. I know Le Mans 

and the Daytona 24 hours are still among the crownjewels 

of motor racing, but since the fractioning between 

Grand AM and ALMS and the demise of the old GTP 

prototypes, the move has been away from sports cars 

towards all the other series. I guess TV and sponsorship 

has had a lot to do with it also. I think if there ever was a 

time when it didn’t hurt not to be in the top ranks of 

sports car professional racing; it’s been the last few years. 

I certainly hope that changes and, when it does, that 

Porsche is right up front competing for the championship. 

The Cayenne issue has also gotten me thinking. There 

are those who say Porsche shouldn’t stray from its core of 

sports cars and they shouldn’t have built an SUV. However, 

the Cayenne is a joint venture with VW that allowed 

Porsche to spend far less money out of its own pocket than 

other companies have in developing their respective SUVs. 

Also, like it or not, many Americans and Porsche owners 

already own SUVs or have said they would buy one if 

Porsche made it. While I know there was a time when there 

was a wide array of 928, 944, and 911 (and turbo) product 

lines, I’m not sure there won’t be even more Porsche 

model diversity and choice in a year or so. Over the next 

year or two it looks like a person will be able to get a 

Boxster, Boxster S, 996 Coupe, Cabriolet, Targa, C4S, GT3, 

Twin-Turbo, GT2, Cayenne S, Cayenne Turbo, and even a 

Carrera GT. All you need is the money. We truly are in a 

golden era of ultra-high performance combined with 

mild-manners and low maintenance, in all cars, not just 

Porsches. Let’s see now, if I had won that recent Powerball 

Lottery of $300 Million, what would I buy… 

And while we’re on the subject of choices, February is 

the start of our 9-month high-performance driving 

season. We have a Drivers Education event at MotorSport 

Ranch, Lone Star Region has one down at Texas World 

Speedway in College Station, and we have several local

Curves Ahead 

by Matt Platts, Editor 

Idon't know about you, but I am very excited to 

see driving season arrive. I have made a 

personal commitment (new year's resolution?) 

to participate in several driving events this year. 

I have been to a few DE's and a handful of 

Autocrosses and Time Trials in the 4 years that 

I've been a member, but I am looking forward to 

doubling my total this year. There are so many 

events offered by the Maverick Region and other surrounding 

regions, I would like to mix in some tracks that I haven't driven on 

before like Hallet and Texas World Speedway. I can't wait, and I hope 

to see many of you there! 

Now that I am editor, I feel a little added responsibility to 

become more active in all aspects of the club. Things like the Rally 

School last weekend and the New Member Party on the weekend 

before. Both events were held at Texas Motor Speedway, I don’t 

know about you, but I can’t think of a better place to spend the day, 

or better people to spend it with. You will see articles for each of 

these events in next month’s issue, but you might have noticed the 

cover picture that was taken there. I was very excited to have such 

a wonderful assortment of Porsches there, including 4 very new 

Carerra 4S’s. Bob Lewis even sent in a picture of himself standing 

by his car at the party that you’ll notice at the end of this article. 

Maverick Minutes 

by Lanean Hughes 

The first 2003 MRPCA board meeting was held 

at the home of our new president, Keith 

Olcha, on January 7th, 2003. Due to the wonderful 

meal that Karen had prepared, we started the 

meeting 15 minutes late! 

Keith went “round the room” for us to state 

our official position, give updates, and plan to 

discuss any issues we might have later. Bill Dugan, 

rules committee chair, reported that we will be wearing short 

sleeves for Autocross and Time Trial, (see Slipstream for more 

details). Jan Mayo reported that “Parade is Happening”. 

Joe McGlohen reported on his discussions w/Lone Star and 

other regions within Zone 5 to be more consistent with corner 

worker duties and protocol for safety. Joe also reported that the BMW 

club is looking to borrow our timing equipment for their upcoming 

Club Race, Keith suggested we leave up to the AX/TT chairs to make 

that decision, motion carried. Joe then also reported on the “Flag of 

the Month Club”. Motion was carried to purchase more flags. Lisa 

Steele reporting for Mark that the AX is on. Dennis Chamberlain 

reported on our Happy Hours, their successes, and where the January 

HH will be. Next month Dennis will have a proposal on our 

mentoring program. 

Mike Brodigan stated that we are at our advertising capacity, 

with a wait list. What a great accomplishment! John Sandusky, our 

DE chair for 2003, stated the February DE is on track w/Park Place as 

the sponsor. Matt Platts reported having the first Slipstream under 

I would also like to remind everyone that we have a members page 

on our website (www.pca.org/mav) where you can post pictures of 

yourself and your car(s). I highly recommend finding someone 

with a digital camera, taking a picture, and sending that along 

with your name and any other information that you would like to 

see on the web to our webmaster, Michael Oakes. 

This is my second issue and I think you will find that it's 

packed full of great articles and event information. Everyone told 

me that December and January are our slow months of the year. I 

can't imagine what the busy season is going to be like, but I think 

I will find out soon. There are several events happening in 

February and March so take a close look at the calendar and pick 

the events that interest you most. 

Bob Lewis at the New Member Party 

his belt was a good feeling (applause from Mavericks attending). Matt 

wants to continue to emphasize that the 10th of the month is the 

deadline, to please volunteer to write articles and we will see more 

visible changes in the future to Slipstream. Matt also requested 

approximately $350 for upgrade items for the computer. The motion 

was made and approved. 

Charlie Davis proposed the purchase of a van to be used for 

timing and storage of our driving events for $1,000 with an 

additional $1,000 for repairs. Approval was given for Charlie to 

pursue the purchase. Joel Nannis reported “We have members”. Our 

membership is still over 1,000 and we are growing rapidly. Teri Davis 

reported on the upcoming Rally School and that we will be holding a 

multi-event weekend in October. Teri is also looking to build a web 

page for Rally events, so watch for it online. Lanean Hughes reported 

the sponsor checks for the February and June DE have been sent. She 

also reported on the Club Race and that things are moving forward. 

Keith reported on the storage area that Maverick Region has secured, 

and that keys are being distributed to those deemed necessary. Up 

next was Michael Wingfield, assistant registrar for DE. He stated that 

he enjoyed “watching Keith work the room”. It was noted that our 

new president will be using the acronym TOL (take off line), during 

his term. 

With no further business to be discussed the meeting was 

adjourned at 9 p.m. The next meeting will be at the home of Lanean 

Hughes. The Board Meeting is for you, so join us!

Happy Hour at Nuevo Leon 

by Dennis Chamberlain 

Happy Hour Crew: Dennis Chamberlain, Tinker 

Edwards, and Mark Gluck 

Ihad expected a quiet Happy Hour 

at Nuevo Leon on December 19, 

since Christmas was less than a 

week away. Not only that, but the 

annual Maverick Christmas party had 

just been held a few days earlier. To 

my surprise, we had 42 rambunctious 

members, including several new faces. 

Nuevo Leon always rolls out the 

red carpet for us, and they went even a step farther this time. The 

restaurant reserves the entire row of parking in front for our 

Porsches, and the lineup of cars this time was even more inspiring 

Photo by Dennis Chamberlain 

than ever before. It’s a treat to be able to graze on good Tex-Mex 

while gazing out the big windows at the lineup. In addition, 

Lanean had arrived before I did (no surprise there), and had 

arranged for the restaurant to put out enough appetizers that it 

was hardly necessary to order from the menu. 


The Wyatt’s and the Lage’s 

Jeannine and Gig Philipp 

New faces included Bill and Barbara Gross, who recently purchased 

a new 2002 Boxster, and Gig and Jeannie Philipp, who 

came down from Denton. The Philipp’s were members long ago, 

sold their Porsche, and thought that they had to drop out. They 

recently acquired a 1997 993, 

so we’re lucky to have them 

back. We also had several 

longer time members who 

haven’t attended recently – 

including Lisa and Jay Walker, 

Darren and Karin Sumrall, 

and Carol and Joe Rybarski. 

Kristi Kobell and Randle 

Johnson walked over from 

Park Place. 

So it was Tex-Mex this 

time, but get ready for scotch 

eggs, bangers & mash, shepherd’s 

pie, and fish & chips the next time. I’m not making this up. 

Carol and Joe Rybarski 

I’m talking about Sherlock’s Baker Street Pub, which is in 

Addison, just behind Friday’s at Montfort & Belt Line. That will 

be the site of the February 13 happy hour. 



You can’t tell here, but “wow” what a wonderful RED hat!

Maverick Driving Tours 

by Ted Glover 

Due to popular demand, the 2003 Tour Season is going 

to be a busy one. The tours will cover different parts 

of Texas, so members will be able to experience how 

diversified the Texas geography is. It is not just flat. 

The Maverick Region has a busy calendar for 2003, so I 

have tried to fill in as many open dates as possible. 

However, this was not always possible and there will be 

conflicts, which means many times a choice will have to be 

made. By having these choices, the club should be able to 

satisfy all the members’ desires: 

There was a desire by tour participants to visit Big 

Cedar Lodge in the Fall of 2003. Unfortunately, Big Cedar 

Lodge is already booked for October, 2003. So I have booked 

rooms for our trip, 29-31 October 2004. The rooms that are 

reserved for the club are in the Valley View Lodge and 

Spring View Lodge. They also have cabins and cottages 

available. If you would rather stay in one of those, just let 

them know. If you want to go, call now and reserve a room 

or cabin. The phone number for group reservations is 

(417) 339-5233. Do not delay, as the cottages and cabins go fast. 

Bonnie and I would like to thank all the participants 

in the past tours and thank the group for the show of 

appreciation in Eureka Springs. 

Mark your calendars. The Dogwood Tour to Palestine is 

coming up soon! I suggest that for all of our tours, plan to 

arrive early so that you will be ready for the driver’s meeting. 

Each car should have a full tank of gas, a walkie-talkie, and 

I also suggest bringing a spare key. If you have any questions 

about any of our tours, please call me at 972-248-7751.

Rules Meeting 

by Bill Dugan, Rules Chair 

Afairly informal rules meeting was held at the Christmas 

party. The only item discussed was the clothing rule. It was 

decided that it’s allright to wear a short sleeve shirt at 

Maverick Region Time Trials. All other clothing requirements 

remain the same. This is an attempt to align with DE and Parade 

2003 (Tampa, Florida). It should also help me at the Parade 2004 

(Fort Worth in case you didn’t know)

Maverick Holiday Party 

by Mike Lockas 

Alan and Kay Leibel hosted this year’s holiday party and, as 

expected, it was a fabulous event. The Leibel’s house was 

bursting at the seams with both people (an estimated 100 in 

attendance) and food. A stroll down the block revealed a beautiful 

collection of fine Porsche automobiles. That, coupled with many 

houses in the neighborhood decked out with holiday lights really 

helped to emphasize the season. 

...the people are the reason that makes 

events like this so special... 

Nobody at the party went away hungry. The menu was 

centered around the famous Joe McGlohen barbeque. Joe 

brought a wide variety of smoked meats that included barbeque 

beef, chicken, sausage, and ribs. There were a few other tables 

spread throughout the house containing munchies like crackers, 

cheeses, dips, crisp veggies, and many side dishes. You could 

sample wonderful casseroles and vegetable dishes. So many 

members brought their favorite sides, it was hard to decide where 

to start. Oh - you can’t forget about the dessert table that was 

overflowing with sinful goodies. Some attendees were even 

caught sneaking bites of the sweets before dinner! 

Much of the topics of conversation were bench racing and 

what modifications were going to be done to extract the next 

increment of performance from our beloved Porsche of choice. 

The upcoming driving schools were also hot topics as people 

were excited to get their spouses and children involved in their 

hobbies. With good hearted kidding and challenging, it comes 

back to our motto of “It’s not the cars, it’s the people.” The cars 

may be the common bond that brought us together, but the 

people are the reason that makes events like this so special. 

I would like to thank Alan and Kay for opening their home 

to host this fabulous event.

Driver Education Tech Update 

by Ray Luedecke 

With the dawning of a new driving year, some of the 

newer rules for Tech Inspection from last year need to 

be clarified or brought back to our attention after the 

long period of rest. 

Last year, PCA National handed down some new “suggestions” 

to enhance the safety of our driving events. The most 

talked about update was the “Cabriolet rollover protection” 

rule. In laymen terms, cabriolet is convertible with a soft top. 

All cars with these soft tops will need to have supplemental 

rollover protection, as in a roll bar, roll hoop, cage, or 

automatic roll bars. This is for all run groups. 996 cabs and 

Boxsters have roll bars from the factory. Everything else (993 

cabs, 944 cabs, earlier 911 cabs, etc...) do not come with 

enough roll over protection. These cars will be required to 

have aftermarket bars installed. There are other makes of cars 

with built in protection: some models from Audi, BMW, 

Chevrolet, and Mazda come to mind. (Check with me prior to 

the event if you are in doubt about your particular car.) 

...if you are being held in place with a piece of 

rope, then your instructor can use that same 

piece of rope... 

The next update is that cars with soft tops will need 

to pass the “broom stick” test. (Do this at home...) Sit in the 

drivers seat with your helmet on, lower the top, place the 

broom from the windshield back to the roll bar. If your helmet 

is above this line, it is not safe. If you are wearing standard 

3-point harnesses, there is some slack as you will slip down 

into the seat if you roll over. (Again, ask me and I can look at 

it during tech. You might try to get in touch with me earlier to 

have time to get roll bar installed if needed...) If you choose to 

The next update is that these cars will run with the tops 

on or up unless the driver and passenger (instructor) both 

have arm restraints. We prefer you to not use arm restraints as 

when they are properly installed, they hinder in giving good 

passing signals while on track. And instructors like to use 

hand signals so the driver can see the track better. 

The next update is the “Like restraint” rule. If the driver 

has a race seat and 5/6 point harnesses, then your instructor 

needs the same equipment. If you are being held in place with 

a piece of rope, then the instructor can use that same piece of 

rope. (Thanks Steve K.) If you cannot afford 2 sets of 

seats and harnesses, then run with your stock 3-point harness 

as long as you have an instructor in the car. 

The last update is the dreaded “Grid Tech”. There was an 

instance of somebody getting their car inspected a week 

before the event and it passed as it was then. Then they 

changed tires the morning of the event, and (uh-oh) the tires 

fell off the car while on track. OOPS... They missed getting the 

lugs torqued right with enough stud into the lug. So, when 

Green and Blue students come to grid, the instructor will 

walk you around your car doing a quick check of some 

important things. The list is as follows: Wheel torque, tire 

tread, empty all of the pockets in the car, empty the trunk(s), 

remove cell phones and radar detectors, do you have brake 

fluid, what pressure are you running in your tires, are there 

any noticeable leaks from under the car, etc. The higher run 

groups will be spot checked, but they should have enough 

time on track to know what to do..?? 

This is a driver’s education event. We’re big on education. 

It is not the responsibility of the tech inspector or instructors 

to keep up with your car. We are teaching and reinforcing the 

needed points to help you keep the event running safely. 

Learning more about your car and the check points that need 

attention when driving your high performance sport car will 

only help you long term - on track as well as off the track. 

Helping you to become better tuned to your fine driving 

machine. 


Ray Luedecke entering Wagon Wheel ahead of a red Corvette at MSR. 

wear 5/6 point harnesses, the rule needs to be enforced strictly 

as you will not slip and the situation during a roll over 

becomes grave. For example: A tall person driving a Miata 

with a 5-point harnesses and stock seats. If your head sticks 

up above the “broom” line 2-3 inches, your neck is in danger. 

Err on the side of safety. 


Do you think this 911 setup this way would be able to run 

again this year at MSR under the new rules?

Parade for Dummies - 2003 

by Jan Mayo 

Maverick’s private room at the Prairie House in Carrollton 

was perfect for the 30+ members that came to talk about 

and hear about Parade. Ooooh, What’s “Parade”? Half of 

us were in the know and we shared every tidbit we could with the 

others that hadn’t had the experience. 

I like to call The Porsche Parade “sensory overload”. Do you 

turn your head at the sound of a Turbo rounding the corner 

down the street? Do you pop your head up when you hear the 

distinctive motor of a 356? Does a racecar whizzing by give you 

chills? If so, at Parade you’ll be dizzy in a matter of minutes. 

Parade is a gathering of 1500 – 1800 fellow Porsche Enthusiasts 

bringing 500-800 Porsches. You will see nearly every possible 

model, color, option, and condition. Some are beautiful. Some 

are so incredible you’re afraid to breathe anywhere near it. Some 

of the owners would prefer you NOT breathe anywhere near it. 

Some owners welcome you to crawl in, around, and under every 

nook and cranny. Some cars are in such dilapidated state you’ll 

wonder how it made it from across the state. But it’s there with its 

happy proud owner, because it DID make it from across the state. 

Meeting people is what I like to go to Parade for. You meet 

fellow enthusiasts from all walks of life. And they’ve all become 

my very best friends. There are parties, dinners, and social 

...I like to call Porsche Parade as sensory 

overload... 


some of the little details that “Newbies” need to know. Like filling 

out the registration form and what’s important to NOT FORGET, 

and when/how to mail it. The Rules are important and James 

Shoffit, speaking from personal experience, explained why. 

In preparation for the Parade Rally, Teri and Charlie Davis 

will be having a couple Rally Schools this spring. She explained 

what a Rally was and why these schools ahead of time are not only 

great fun but good preparation before you go to Florida. 

Jan shares her Parade experience with a group of the attendees 


opportunities to visit. If you’re standing in the parking lot with a 

quizzical expression on your face or your arms overloaded with 

bags, someone will stop to help. A new best friend. You’ll look 

over the Concours site in awe at the panorama of colors and 

someone will point to one and say, “That’s mine” or “I know that 

guy.” Another new best friend. You could be looking in the engine 

compartment of a brand new 996 and Peter Porsche will look 

over your shoulder and say “Hello”. Yup, another new best friend. 

As Parade 2003 will be in Saddlebrook Resort, just north of 

Tampa, June 22-28, we shared these experiences then explained 

Round-the-room introductions 

Many Parades have specific Kid activities and Florida has a 

wonderful array of things for teens and pre-teens and little kids. 

Lanean Hughes gave us a rundown of these activities and we 

introduced Lisa Steele as the Kid Activities Chairman for 2004 

Parade here in Maverick-Town. Mike Bellinghausen promptly 

sprung up presenting his youngest toddler to Lisa. “Here, you can 

have him NOW.” 

At this point 

we started tying in 

all these wonderful 

things we’re promoting 

in Florida 

to the fact that 


will be hosting 

the 2004 Porsche 

Parade here in Fort 

Worth, July 4-10. 

As Chairman 

Charlie tells James where those 45-series tires are 

of 2004 Maverick 

Parade I’m inviting everyone out there to get involved. Meet the 

people and enjoy the family that evolves during the next 18 

months of planning. Preparing a week long party for 1800 New 

Best Friends, is no small endeavor, but Maverick is up to it. Come 

join the family. There is a lot to do and lots of places for new and 

happily established members to join in. 

See you there!

Concours Judges Seminar 

By Kathy Fricke 

There will be a National Concours Judges Seminar this Spring at Prestige Imports in 

Denver. General Manager Don Adis has agreed to host this event on March 2, 2003 at 

the Porsche dealership at 9201 W. Colfax, Lakewood, Co. The seminar is supported by 

Zone's 9, 5, and the Rocky Mountain and Alpine Mountain Regions. 

The seminar will offer something for everyone regardless of involvement in Parade or 

Regional concours. Nationally accredited judges will be used to head teams of apprentice or 

first time judges. For the members, as well as the national judges attending, this formal training 

is strongly recommended for increased proficiency as a Parade or Regional judge. Club 

members wishing to become apprentice national or regional judges looking to improve their 

skills are welcome to attend. Even if you are not interested in the judging aspect of it, you will 

still learn a lot about your Porsche as a by-product of studying the judging process. 

The Judges seminar is not a car care product knowledge class, but you may hear about 

various products used by some of the attendees. If you have attended a Porsche Parade, you 

may be familiar with the classification of Parade judging. The seminar will involve three classes: 

Restoration, Preparation and Preservation. On a regional level we deal mostly with the 

Preparation class. This is otherwise known as “the search for dirt”. At the Parade in Boise this 

year I entered my ‘84 Carrera in the Preservation class. In this class the judges are not allowed 

to touch the entrant’s car. The primary judging interest is the originality of your car. This is 

not to say that the judges will not ask you to open everything up for inspection. It’s a very 

interesting class for the entrant who has a perfectly stock, original Porsche. It is not a beauty 

contest, but you do have to have the car prepared well. I will leave the Restoration and 

Preparation class descriptions to more learned judge/members like Dennis Frick, Seminar 

Chairman, Tom Scott, Bill Jackson and other gurus at the seminar. 

It is my feeling that if you take the time and attend this seminar you will come away with 

a wealth of new ideas. Please check the RMR and AMR web sites for more details.

Why It’s Good To Wear White 

By Bill Kasdorf 

Ithink I had a beer in my hand, and probably one already down when 

Joe McGlohen approached me during my first Maverick Happy Hour. 

He sensed my weakness. Here's a brand new Maverick, trying to connect 

with this new group of strangers. He could strike quickly. Me, a corner 

worker? Naw, I wanna be a race car driver, like Michael, or Hurley, or 

Nigel. No one dreams of becoming a corner worker! "How much time, 

what's involved, and when?" I asked, trying to find a reason to not get 

caught up in this. "OK, yeah, put me down, I'll do it.” (Well, some day 

maybe). It was like anything else, agree face-to-face then get your schedule 

really full. It's worked for years on other stuff, like dentist appointments. 

As is typical with Joe, he didn't forget. He bribed my wife, Penny, and 

I with his (now) famous barbeque in exchange for attending a Flag and 

Communication Class. He had apparently worked similar coercion with 

others because he had at least a dozen in attendance for his training. OK, 

we're trained. We still have time to manage this commitment. Remember, 

I wanna be like Michael. 

Volunteers? Yeah, Wendy put us down. Club Race? Yeah, we're 

"trained". White clothing? It's October - in Dallas! There's nothing out 

there, this is fashion-land. Everything white in Dallas is destroyed on Labor 

Day. You'll accept light colors? OK Yeah, put us down for the Club Race. 

7am on a Saturday? I must admit I got a kick out of telling friends and coworkers 

about "working" a car race. Most had no idea this was available 

and seemed intrigued by the idea. Being my first time, I really couldn't 

explain what I was going to do, so I made some of it up to sound even more 

important and exciting. 

I found a flaw in Joe's training shortly after arriving at corner 6 with 

my fellow workers. I needed to pack enough clothing and "stuff" for three 

seasons; hot, cold, and wet. I also don't recall him telling me to bring 

earplugs and Mechanix Gloves (for helping push cars that came to "visit" 

our corner). I was sure to bring them Sunday. 

At 8 in the morning it was windy and cold. But it was really beautiful 

to be out in the middle of a quiet racetrack watching the sun come up. The 

cold seemed to vanish when the first cars came out on track, as did the 

quiet. We rotated duties throughout the day so each could learn all aspects 

of working the corner. 

Thanks to Joe and Wendy's recruiting skills we had enough people to 

have one person available to "float" and secretly watch the cars. Watching 

cars on SpeedVision is great, but seeing the difference in driving styles, up 


close and personal, is really great. I have a much better understanding of 

the things my instructor, Dan Germain, tried to tell me at the last DE. "See 

the corner station?", he'd ask every time. "Yeah, so what? I'm looking for my 

apex, and turn out, and all cones in general," I thought. Now I understand 

why I need to add them to my list of things to do. They (we!) are out there 

to add a huge level of safety to this driving thing. Not only do you get to 

see examples of a dozen different driving styles, you actually start critiquing 

the way each took "your corner." 

When the fastest and best drivers were on the track it was the greatest 

seat in the house. You could pretty much just tape the Blue Passing flag to 

the protection barrier in front of us, because they were all over each other, 

passing in places that I didn't think possible, and all right in front of me. 

It was all very exciting and educational, and it also gave me an entirely 

new perspective of why we joined a group like the Mavericks. It really is 

about the people, the cars are a bonus. These workers took their jobs very 

seriously. And I was one of them. And when there was a break, walking 

around the garages got us "thank you's" from the busy drivers. It was a 

good feeling. Everyone in charge of this event went out of their way to 

make each of us feel good about helping out. Countless acknowledgements 

are due, and great food. But for me it was another of life's experiences, great 

people, great cars, and recognition. 

I still want to be like Michael, but now I've expanded my interests, 

again. I truly enjoyed working the event. Joe and Wendy: Sign me up again! 

(Reprinted from the December 2001 Slipstream to try and encourage more volunteers.) 

Corners are even more crowded at TMS! 


Wagon Wheel is an important corner at MSR. A red shirt on corner worker here would look just like a red flag! 

This is one corner you don’t want to get in the habit of ignoring something red out of the corner of your eye!

Parade 2003 - Plan For The Best 

by the Parade 2003 Chairs 

HOTEL 

The 2003 Porsche Parade will use as its home the beautiful 

Saddlebrook Resort, located approximately 20 miles north of the city of 

Tampa, Florida. Saddlebrook is well known by golf and tennis 

aficionados, as it boasts an Arnold Palmer designed golf course and a 

world famous tennis academy. Saddlebrook is large enough to 

accommodate not only all attendees’ housing requirements but has 

spacious enough grounds to host almost all Parade events, a one stop 

shopping sort of environment. The options for hotel accommodations 

include a single room, one or two bedroom suite and even a few threebedroom 

suites. The resort has lovely grounds, which lend themselves 

to walking short distances either for recreation or going from one event 

to the next. The food service and restaurant dining at the resort have 

received the Golden Platter Award for several years, making the need for 

food a great opportunity to try some quality cuisine. All banquets will 

be held on property in the Grand Pavilion room. 

Look forward to a resort experience that will have you thinking 

of coming back in future years to relive the pleasures of the Florida 

Parade! 

SECURITY 

Security at Parade 2003 will be the least thing you must think 

about. Your precious jewels of cars will be perfectly safe, as well as any 

personal items. 

Parade 2003 is being held inside the grounds of an exclusive 

resort and community. Entry to the area is controlled via a gate and a 

guard employed by Saddlebrook resort where the event is being held. 

The resort has a very extensive and well trained security staff, which 

are on duty 24 hours per day. In addition to these normal and 

excellent security procedures, a uniformed police officer with a 

marked patrol car will be on duty every night of the Parade from 7PM 

in the evening until 7AM the following morning. 

Security will be the best ever provided! Please don’t forget to 

bring along personal identification and your PCA membership card.

PARKING 

Saddlebrook Resort is a walking village; therefore, the parking 

will be dispersed to several lots throughout the resort. All parking will 

be assigned upon arrival at the resort. A shuttle service will be 

provided to take you from your designated parking area to the hotel 

registration area. 24-hour shuttle service will be available to all 

parking areas. 

Since the parking lots are dispersed, the Concours Prep parking 

area will not be located near the trailer parking. Shuttle service will 

be provided between the two lots. Accommodations will be made for 

those who wish to prep their car at their trailer. 

Concours preparation areas will be in two lots with easier access 

to guest accommodations. Entrants in the Concours will be limited to 

one and one half parking places in the prep lots. After the Concours 

on Monday, the prep lots will be opened to all Porsches, not just 

Concours entrants. 

Look for the Parade 2003 Application in the November issue of 

Panorama. Be sure to mail your parade application on Tuesday, 

January 14, 2003.
