The Inside Track<br />

by Rocky Johnson, the Maverick Region President<br />

In a bit of a twist, this month's topic is not<br />

about Porsches or even the Maverick Region,<br />

but rather about that good old American<br />

icon, the Corvette.<br />

As it happened, our normal summer<br />

sojourn to Breckenridge, Colorado coincided<br />

with a huge gathering of Corvettes that lasted<br />

several days. Apparently the cutoff for registration<br />

was 500 cars, but another 100 showed up as non-official participants.<br />

This could sound familiar to some Parade goers.<br />

As I talked with folks around town and at their various venues,<br />

I was struck with the notion that a car guy is a car guy, no matter<br />

what the marque. To be fair (and politically correct), there were<br />

a substantial number of car gals and car kids in attendance as well.<br />

As an impartial observer, it was interesting to note the spirited<br />

debates regarding the merits of old vs. new, hardtop vs. convertible,<br />

stock, OEM restorations vs. improved or upgraded parts. If<br />

you could have inserted air cooled vs. water cooled, rear engine vs.<br />

mid or front engine, etc. it could just as easily been a Maverick<br />

happy hour.<br />

The grand finale had all the cars lined up on Main Street. I<br />

must admit, even for a Porsche guy, it was quite a sight to behold.<br />

There was everything from a '53 that looked like it had just rolled<br />

off the assembly line, to later models that had been transformed<br />

into fire breathing machines with glow in the dark flame jobs.<br />

Unfortunately, on the day of the big event, July 29th, the temperature<br />

broke the record and set an all time high for the day of 84<br />

degrees! On the positive side, there were enough cold beverages to<br />

sustain everyone.<br />

As the event ended and the Vettes were leaving town, a poster<br />

caught my eye that there was going to be a gathering of Mini<br />

Coopers the next weekend. Although I haven't met any of them<br />

yet, I'll bet they prove to be just as spirited in their discussions of<br />

old vs. new, etc. In fact it's rumored they are having screenings of<br />

both the original and the newer versions of " The Italian Job" to<br />

keep both schools happy.<br />

I guess the bottom line is, no matter what the marque, gatherings<br />

such as these always produce a great deal of "Car"maraderie.<br />

From The Driver’s Seat<br />

by Wendy Shoffit, <strong>Slipstream</strong> Managing Editor<br />

As I write this article, a dear friend of mine<br />

(and many of yours), Lanean Hughes, is<br />

dealing with the news that she’s developed<br />

lung cancer. It seems so trivial now to get the issue<br />

out, but I know that wouldn’t be what she would<br />

want. She has invested so much of her life giving<br />

to this club that anything short of fabulous just<br />

wouldn’t do. So, here we are. Please send your positive thoughts and<br />

prayers her way as she battles this insidious disease. If anyone in the<br />

world has enough spunk and tenacity to beat it, you’d better believe<br />

it’s Lanean! Hug your loved ones and tell them how much you love<br />

them. Godspeed, Lanean. We love you!<br />

On a bit of a lighter note, we have a winner from last month’s<br />

Napoleon Dynamite look alike contest. Taking first place is none<br />

other than Tom Snodgrass (#11), closely followed by my hubby,<br />

James Shoffit (#3), who swears he was JUST like Napoleon in<br />

high school. The winning prize is a Jumbo Sized tater tots. If you<br />

didn’t just snicker (even a little), seriously... watch the movie.<br />

Anyway, I don’t know how much YOU read on the internet,<br />

but I don’t explore it as much as I’d like. I could spend 24 hours<br />

a day for the next 7 years and never read even all the *interesting*<br />

stuff. Fortunately for me, James reads way more than I do. Some<br />

links he’s given by friends and co-workers, others he finds all<br />

on his own. He recently sent me a link to an entertaining,<br />

insightful, cleverly-written article about why people often behave<br />

the way they do. The author is David Wong and the title of<br />

the article is “Inside the Monkeysphere.” (The direct link is<br />

http://www.pointlesswasteoftime.com/monkeysphere.html for<br />

those of you who have some free time and want to read the whole<br />

thing.) Basically, it’s all about the simple fact that you care the<br />

most about those who are closest to you in your life (aka “inside<br />

your monkeysphere”).<br />

It’s so much easier to yell at someone from the safety of your<br />

car to “Learn how to drive, moron!” than yell at a friend who<br />

pushed the wrong button on an elevator. Both people made<br />

mistakes, but you care more about your friend than you do the<br />

anonymous person on the freeway. This friend is inside the<br />

monkeysphere. It’s not a bad thing... it just is the way it is. We<br />

know all about the goings on in our own monkeysphere and<br />

don’t care AS much about things that are outside. The article is<br />

way more clever than I am and explains it far better. You can read<br />

it to get a laugh, insight, or just to spend time doing something<br />

other than the things you REALLY need to get done. I laughed a<br />

lot reading it and felt like I understood a little more about society<br />

than I did before. Using simple terms to understand people out<br />

there makes sense to me and helps to keep things in perspective.<br />

At least for today, I’m looking out from the driver’s seat in a<br />

little different way. Read it, don’t read it... it’s your choice. Either<br />

way I hope that you will join us at an event soon and maybe we<br />

can become part of each other’s monkeysphere.<br />

Exploring the West<br />

by Teri Davis<br />

Agroup of Porsches and Mini Coopers gathered on July 9th<br />

to explore some of the territory west of the Metroplex.<br />

They saw some strange, interesting, and beautiful sights.<br />

They tell me it was a tough rally. There were, indeed, a few<br />

instances of having to understand the route rules to find the way.<br />

But it must not have been too tough for almost everyone figured<br />

it out and found the route. I know they did because the answers<br />

to the questions could only be found on the route.<br />

I'm pleased to report that I heard several comments about the<br />

wonderful country roads and saw a lot of smiling faces at the<br />

end.<br />

Time Trial and Autocross - What’s it Really About?<br />

by Ray Nannis<br />

As the heat vapors rise off the track at the end of the day, I asked<br />

myself what were the August 5-6, <strong>2006</strong>, Maverick Region<br />

Porsche Time Trial #5 and Autocross #5 about? Well, mostly it<br />

was about 104 degrees. I arrived on Saturday an hour and a half early<br />

as the course was just being completed. It is always exciting driving to<br />

these high speed events, which is something new to me this year. This<br />

was an intimate event compared to the other events I have attended.<br />

On Saturday we only had 20 drivers which made things go by fast<br />

(some drivers were faster then others and most faster than me). The<br />

high speed course was the longest I had ever seen. Now, I have only<br />

seen three so that may not be impressive, but even experienced<br />

members, like my father, Joel Nannis, had to be shown the course. For<br />

those of you who know him for some reason he seems to be the butt<br />

of many jokes so I had to take advantage of the fact he did not know<br />

the course and asked for a new instructor. (He jokily replied that<br />

would also mean I would need to get a new car to drive since I was<br />

using his.)<br />

Because of the low attendance each corner worker had to be by<br />

himself or herself, but the working times seemed very short. Most<br />

drivers stayed on course and few cones were hit. As a driver I really<br />

enjoyed the event because of the amount of “seat time.” Each driver<br />

received two sets of five laps on the early run and three laps in the<br />

second series. This was great for an inexperienced driver. Somehow the<br />

corner work stations went by quickly and I felt like I was in the car for<br />

a long time. We completed the entire event by 1:00pm.<br />

After the Time Trial most of us took a trip to Braum's for lunch.<br />

After lunch, it was back to the track to set up for the Autocross. Kevin<br />

Hardison had already picked up all the cones from the speed event so<br />

the set up actually went very quickly. Bryan Bell designed the AX<br />

course and led the set up team. He almost dumped most of us out of<br />

the back of the pickup each time he took off from a stop. He must have<br />

still thought it was his 911. We were done by just a little after 3:00pm<br />

and then it was to the hotel and the pool. Wow, that felt good! My dad<br />

and I stayed at the Executive Inn and the pool felt great. Dinner at the<br />

Italian Restaurant was fifteen of us reviewing the day and enjoying<br />

each others’ company.<br />

Sunday came and we got a bit of a reprieve from the heat. It was<br />

still hot but, only in the upper 90's with an occasional nice breeze.<br />

Only about 26 drivers showed as we were competing with a BMW<br />

event and Porsche Parade, not to mention the heat that may<br />

have run off a few less brave members. The title of the course was<br />

“15 anniversary” and the “Toilet Bowl.” We were informed that it was<br />

Bryan and Andrea Bell's 15th anniversary that week. This obviously<br />

lead to more than a few comments about the title but we found there<br />

was no relationship between the shape of the track and the quality of<br />

the marriage. This was a fast track with an optional straight run with<br />

a 90 degree turn or a long wide run with a wide turn one, I found that<br />

corner one could not be as fast as I originally thought as I made a full<br />

360 spin wiping out about 5 cones. I really enjoyed this course because<br />

again we had the ability for a lot of seat time, five timed runs and<br />

three fun runs for anyone who wished. We only had to work corners<br />

one time but this time most of us did get a partner. I got to work<br />

with Denny Payne, and I find it interesting just to get to know<br />

another club member.<br />

So the question again is, “what was this event really about?”<br />

It wasn't really the heat, it wasn't about the time each of us made (ok<br />

maybe it was about the time for some), and it really wasn't even about<br />

the cars. It was about a great group of people having fun and enjoying<br />

each others’ company and one of the friendliest competitions I have<br />

ever been around. It was joking and laughing at ourselves and each<br />

other. It was about families spending some time together. Darron<br />

Shaffer's father, Ted, was there. He worked and appeared to be having<br />

a great time. Bryan and Andrea's son, Conner, was there with his<br />

basketball, which made it about trying to wear that kid out. Finally,<br />

for me, it was about finding a way to enjoy spending time with my<br />

father. When I was in grade school I remember many times coming<br />

out to events, but then college got in the way, chiropractic school,<br />

starting a business, marriage and the list goes on and on. For some reason<br />

I never got involved with many of the club events other than the<br />

Fathers’ Day picnic. The reality is over the last few years I would say I<br />

have not really been involved with my father’s life more than an<br />

occasional family dinner. What this event and this season of high<br />

speed events represents is the first time my father and I have had a<br />

father and son weekend since the 1987 Parade. It has offered a<br />

bonding experience as an adult with someone very important to me.<br />

As someone who doesn't own Porsche yet, what I recognize is that the<br />

events are really about relationships. Each time I get to meet someone<br />

new, and get to know a little about them. I find friends, get closer to<br />

some and meet new friends. Most important I found a great way to<br />

build the important relationship between father and son.<br />

Murder Mystery Dinner Theater<br />

by Grant Imsande<br />

Thirty-five Maverick Region Members and guests turned out<br />

on July 15th for " Write Between the Eyes" a presentation by<br />

Labniappe Productions' Lone Star Murder Mysteries.<br />

The cast in the production: Marshall Jim Courtright,<br />

Catastrophe Kate, Buffalo Joe, Homicidal Hank, and Miss Sissy<br />

May Prissbottom put on lively performances involving lots of<br />

laughs and audience participation.<br />

Audience members with the following attributes: ringing cell<br />

phones, fruity drinks, spaghetti strap tops, slightly balding pates,<br />

Hawaiian shirts, and/or seats on the front row managed to<br />

"participate" the most. Bob Lewis managed to attract a major<br />

portion of cast attention (participate a bunch) by having three of<br />

the six attributes.<br />

by Pat Benson<br />

Where do you meet gun-slingers, a mule skinner that<br />

can't shoot his way out of a paper bag, a pint-size<br />

Catastrophe out to avenge her dead husband, a 'closet'<br />

dime novel author by the (pen)name of 'Dirk' who looks nothing<br />

like her name, a railroad tycoon with questionable 'ethics', and a<br />

sheriff caught in the middle of these nere-do-wells? The Maverick<br />

Mystery dinner - of course!<br />

I've been a mystery fan for years - just never seem to find the<br />

time to sign up. So I was delighted to see the Mystery Dinner on<br />

the calendar. Such Fun!!!<br />

Meeting new people and catching-up with others, are two of<br />

my favorite things about Maverick social events - and this was no<br />

exception. I joined Betsy and Grant Imsande, and their friend<br />

Jean, to be the 'fourth' in the “Garage Sale” team. How our group<br />

got that name is still a mystery to me, but we hit it off instantly<br />

and had to remind ourselves to read up on the plot before the<br />

play started. I was delighted to see half a dozen people I haven't<br />

seen in months.<br />

The theatre group that put on the play was brilliant!<br />

Performed in a small area, it was like being in the play - more for<br />

some than others. There was shootin' and hollerin' and carrying<br />

on, and eventually - oh my! - murder - with lots of laughter,<br />

general hurrah and 'audience' participation (I decided that, even<br />

The winning “Garage Sale” team of Grant and Betsy Imsande,<br />

Pat Benson, and Grant & Betsy’s friend, Jean<br />

During the presentation, six teams of Maverick Region super<br />

sleuth detectives (Water Cooled, 3 Teenagers and a Wasser<br />

Pumper, Po Po Bustlers, Microft, Garage Sale and Mavericks) set<br />

out to solve the baffling case concerning the murder of a<br />

railroad tycoon, Horace Grimsley. The teams utilized incredibly<br />

insightful questions such as: “Was Buffalo Joe any relation to<br />

Buffalo Bob Smith?” to crack the case.<br />

Has anyone mentioned before that Tracey and Ed Gross do<br />

a tremendous job with social events? If so then this outing was<br />

not exception. Everyone had a great time. Thanks again to<br />

Tracey and Ed!<br />

Bob Lewis trying on Buffalo Joe’s hat. Where’d his head go?<br />

though she was the one that went off to jail, Catastrophe Kate<br />

(aptly named) was my favorite character.)<br />

When the play was done, we had only 10 minutes to ask each<br />

character just one question - and it couldn't be “did you do it” or<br />

“did____ do it”. I'm not sure what the other teams asked - but we<br />

asked the Sheriff what size the bullet was - which turned out to be<br />

a good question to ask.<br />

Only two teams solved the mystery, but I think it's fair to say<br />

- we all had a grand time!<br />

Many thanks to Tracey and Ed for another fabulous party!<br />

(When's the next one?) Also thanks to Wendy and the other<br />

participants that took pictures amidst the laughter and mayhem!

Texas Rangers Game<br />

by Wendy Shoffit<br />

Take me out to the ball game... Take me out with my friends. Buy<br />

me some ice cream and Budweiser. I want yellow to win the dot<br />

race. Let me root root root for the Rangers. I really hate the<br />

Yankees. Cause it’s five, ten, fifteen Mavericks out at the old Ball Game.<br />

Okay, so creating new lyrics to replace Jack Norworth and Albert<br />

Von Tilzer’s “Take Me Out to the Ball Game” isn’t my strong suit.<br />

Don’t worry, I won’t quit my day job. *grin* I just couldn’t start out<br />

the article with, “It was a hot day in Texas...” We all KNOW how hot<br />

it’s been. Surprisingly, though, it was pretty nice that evening. Tracey<br />

Gross arranged for some great seats for us, not facing the sun, in a nice<br />

shady spot on the Lexus Club Terrace Level (aka NOT the nosebleed<br />

seats!). Ice cream in one hand, cotton candy in the other, lemonade<br />

on the way... Hanging out with some cool friends. It was nice.<br />

The game itself was a nail biter. The Yankees scored 2, then we<br />

tied, then we were up by 2 and they came back to move ahead by 2.<br />

Then we scored 3 more runs to regain the lead by 1. Then, in the 9th<br />

inning, they came back with 2 more runs to which we couldn’t<br />

answer. In a heart breaker, the final score was Yankees 8, Rangers 7.<br />

I’m convinced that rooting for the Yankees is easy. It’s rooting for<br />

everyone else that takes dedication!<br />

That didn’t stop us, though, from having a fun time together. It’s<br />

a shame more Mavericks couldn’t make it to the game. Hopefully that<br />

won’t deter Ed and Tracey from coming up with new, clever, fun ideas<br />

for us all. Thanks for the fun!<br />

The Eagle is Landing<br />

Photo by Richard Miller<br />

by Richard Miller<br />

There I was, tearing down a 2000 foot straight shifting into 6th,<br />

hitting the rev limiter, then heavy braking into a left over crest<br />

and a diving right, leading to hard left…. Well not quite as I was<br />

in David and Linda Cook's 4WD pickup bumping along the rough<br />

graded track at 5 MPH. Eagle Canyon Motorsports Park is well under<br />

way and looks to become a great race track. And here's a shot of what<br />

the down stream side of that left over crest into the diving right looks<br />

like now:<br />

Eagle Canyon Motorsports Park<br />

Lots of dirt being moved (500,000 tons so far) and as you hopefully<br />

can tell, lots of elevation change.<br />

I just heard of this new race track being built up in Wise County,<br />

just west of Sanger off of I35 a few weeks ago. Of course, if I had been<br />

paying attention, I would have seen the interview in the Fort Worth<br />

Star Telegram last March with Rob Lay and the Cooks. So I had to go<br />

visit. After all, according to David Cook, the track is using only about<br />

200 acres of the over 400 acres they own. The rest of the area may<br />

become off road trails for motorcycles and other off road vehicles.<br />

Maybe I could fit a performance rally course in there. Or at least a<br />

RallyCross course.<br />

Well, what I found was a couple of dedicated race people and<br />

their team working very hard in the Texas heat to bring a new track to<br />

the area. Of course, we have all had the experience of new tracks being<br />

planned and even having the rough grading done only to have the<br />

track fade away. But this one feels different. David and Linda Cook are<br />

dedicated to bringing a high quality FIA approved track to the area.<br />

The lime treatment of the dirt is now finished and the base course is<br />

about to start. (In fact by the time this makes into print, the base<br />

course may be complete.) And then PAVE, PAVE, PAVE! The track<br />

should be ready this fall. The only caveat seems to be how much time<br />

the Cooks will have to be away from the track to get Linda's Corvette<br />

Z06, named Shania, ready for the next 24 Hours of Daytona. I did<br />

mention they were racers did I not? Actually, car preparation should<br />

not take much time as Shania is actually being prepped by Nick Cole,<br />

son of Edward Cole, previous CEO of General Motors. Nick is one of<br />

the co-drivers when the Eagles Canyon Race Car heads for Daytona!!!<br />

According to David, the location of the track was chosen because<br />

of the elevation changes. As most of us know, Texas tends to be on the<br />

flat side. But Eagles Canyon Motorsports Park is sited on actual hills<br />

and canyons. The course has been laid out to take advantage of this.<br />

Those racers used to the banking of Texas Motor Speedway being<br />

considered an elevation change may be surprised while those who<br />

have raced at Hallett will be pleased. I take that back, every one will be<br />

pleased.<br />

Happy Hour at Razzoo’s<br />

by Dennis Chamberlain<br />

New faces seem to appear whenever we have our happy<br />

hour at Razzoo's in Irving. This time, one of them (or a<br />

group, I should say) belonged to Pam, Carl, and Taylor<br />

Perpich, who had recently purchased Mike and Maria Stafford's<br />

Porsche 911. All five of them came to the happy hour together,<br />

and there's nothing happier than new Porsche owners.<br />

Monda Degan and Pat Chambers<br />

Then there were Rocky and Judy Johnson - well, they're<br />

not new faces, but you should have seen their faces after<br />

they downed a jumbo mountain of Razzoo's ice cream and<br />

whipped cream. I am here to attest that they had no help -<br />

despite several unselfish offers to lend them a hand (or a<br />

spoon). And they still manage to stay thin. So much for Atkins.<br />

It was good to see Wayne and Pat Chambers, the Scudder<br />

family, Bob and Sarah Jandrucko, Steven and April Dodd, Dan<br />

and Nan Nowak, and many others who don't regularly attend.<br />

For our <strong>September</strong> 21st happy hour, we're heading back to<br />

Cantina Laredo - hope to see you there!<br />

Happy Anniversary!<br />

Welcome, New Members!<br />

You have just joined one of the best and most active PCA<br />

Regions in the country! Some clubs focus solely on social<br />

events, while others focus on just show and shine concours<br />

events. Maverick Region is a club that focuses on providing<br />

our members with the tools necessary to have the ultimate in<br />

driving experiences.<br />

You will notice that our region has many Time Trials,<br />

Autocrosses, and Drivers’ Education (DE) events (in addition<br />

to a yearly Club Race). This has been the spirit of the region<br />

for quite some time. We have some of the finest instructors in<br />

the country. Make sure you take full advantage of the driving<br />

experiences we have to offer.<br />

Racing is not ALL we focus on, though. If racing doesn’t<br />

suit you, we have monthly happy hours, three monthly lunch<br />

gatherings, regular dinner socials, frequent driving tours on<br />

some fabulous roads in and around Texas, driving rallies (fun<br />

for the whole family), and regular opportunities to support<br />

our perpetual charity, the Hope Shelter.<br />

If we don’t have what you’re looking for, just ask us... we<br />

might just add something extra to the calendar.<br />

Please also feel free to share article ideas (and submissions)<br />

to editor@mavpca.org. We’d love to hear from you!<br />
