My Thoughts 

by Jan Mayo, Slipstream Managing Editor 

Parade has come and gone but the pictures 

and the memories remain. What a rush! 

Both figuratively and literally. The head rush 

of seeing a gazillion Porsches of all shapes, sizes, 

models and colors is awesome. And new or old 

every Porsche has its very own distinctive sound. 

At Parade you get dizzy as you react to the sound, 

constantly turning to see who/what is coming or 

going. With a new Parade location every year it’s fun to see how 

quickly you can maneuver to all the places you want and need to 

go (Goodie Store, Registration, Banquet locations). This year 

everything was smooshed into 5 days where last year it was 6 and 

previously it had been 7. That created the literal rush. 

Conversations with old friends were rushed because both of you 

were headed to some event or activity. Afternoon events were 

rushed so you had time to get gussied up for dinner. And there 

was a dinner/award presentation every night. No room to 

explore the area or sample local cuisine. I hope this smooshing 

will change. I missed seeing and visiting with a lot of friends 

because there was no time. 

Speaking of rushing . . . The end of the year is on roller 

skates heading this way at a very high speed. September’s DE, 

October’s Charity AX and Concours, November’s Founders 

Day and December’s Christmas Party and much more. Watch 

the event calendar so you can pencil in the upcoming activities 

and not miss anything. 

A new activity that’s about to be in the works is another 

Dyno Day. Travis Howard thought that sounded like a good 

thing to have so “Viola!” he’s in charge of scheduling one. Stay 

Tuned. 

Over the year there have been some subtle changes in 

Slipstream. Every new Editor takes that liberty to add his or 

her own touches. One of the changes you probably won’t see is 

the extension of the Slipstream Staff. Or at least I hope there 

will be an extension. We’ve grown - substantially. And there 

are pieces of the magazine that can be done remotely, then 

combined later into one cohesive book. We’re working on a 

way to do that. If you have the desire to be a “little” involved 

but without taking a huge leap, let me know. I’d love to add 

you to the team. 

If you didn’t know, there already is a team working in the 

background. Since he was editor, Matt Platts has “pinked” the 

electronic copy, taking out the previous month’s articles in 

preparation for the new month’s information. For the first part 

of the year Mike Kuhn helped me by preparing photos and 

doing the Trivia page. For more years than I can count Andy 

Mears has been our liaison with the Post Office, most recently 

facilitating the change from the Dallas to the Fort Worth Bulk 

Mail Center. Proof readers Tracey Gross and Tinker Edwards 

nit pick the issue for me before anyone else sees it. Lisa Steele 

keeps our advertisers happy and their ad copy updated. 

Speaking of ads Dennis Chamberlain and Mark Gluck have 

been providing the beautiful upcoming event ads. If anyone 

was depending on my creativity here we’d have a real problem. 

And always at my elbow is Wendy Shoffit with tips, tricks, 

advice and often physical presence helping get the book prepared. 

But there’s plenty of room for more. And I welcome 

anyone with interest.

Catch my Draft 

by James Shoffit, the Maverick Region President 

Well Wendy, Jasmine, and I just got back 

from another Davis and Davis Rally. Teri 

and Charlie make a wonderful team for 

these lighthearted, fun, rallies. This last one was at 

the Nasher Sculpture Center in Dallas, so in addition 

to having a blast with fellow Porsche people, 

we also got a little bit of culture. Which I desperately 

need! 

Charlie took the photographs, and Teri set 

up the sheets and did the timing and scoring. This was a Photo 

Rally which is kindof like a scavenger hunt where you go and find 

the artwork shown in the picture. Charlie is very tricky with those, 

so it took a lot of work to figure some of them out. There was a lot 

of camaraderie and helping each other out, since we were in such a 

relaxing atmosphere. Everyone got every answer right, so it came 

down to who got the answers the fastest. 

There are other photo rallies where you have to drive to find 

the things you are looking for. There are no specified courses for 

the photo rallies – you just wander around until you find everything. 

Or time runs out! 

Another type of Rally is the Tulip Rally. I don’t think we have 

had one of those in a few years, but it is a Time Speed Distance rally 

where you get small diagrams of each intersection you come to, 

directing you through it. These small illustrations often look like 

Tulips, thus the name. The goal for these is to go the speed specified 

in the instructions, find all the turns, and complete the rally at 

the right time based on when you left. That’s where the time, speed, 

and distance come into play. 

The traditional Porsche Club TSD Rally (like the competitive 

one at Parade) is more tricky – you have a set of instructions and 

things to look for to guide your path rather than diagrams of intersections. 

The goal is the same – arrive at the perfect time based on 

when you left. 

Charlie and Teri put a lot of effort into these rallies, and they 

have been pretty well attended this year. If any of these sound like 

fun, send an email to Teri at rally@mavpca.org, and let her know 

what you would like. She is also asking for help with ideas and initial 

layout of Rallies. Typically we look for interesting roads and 

scenery (could be city or country). If you are interested in helping 

out – she can fine tune the details and the timing, let her know at 

the above email address. 

Other job openings I should mention are Editorial Assistance. 

Familiarity with a computer is required – and not much else. We 

can do the on-the-job training. We are moving towards using 

Adobe InDesign to lay out Slipstream now so we can use both Macs 

and PCs more efficiently. If you have InDesign experience,WE 

WANT YOU. So if you think you can help out in ANY way – and 

there are lots of ways to help, some that don’t require much time at 

all, please let Jan know at editor@mavpca.org. She will love you forever! 

We have had a few shifts in the board as well – Dennis, who has 

given us about a thousand Happy Hours now, is turning over the 

reins to Monda Degan and Mike Lockas. And we have a new 

Calendar Person to help us keep all our calendars (web, slipstream, 

events, etc) straight – please welcome Robyn Howard! 

We also have a nominating committee consisting of Wendy 

Shoffit, Jan Mayo, and Travis Howard. If you want to run for any 

elected position (President, Vice President, Secretary, or Treasurer), 

please let them know at nominating@mavpca.org. Crickets ? All I 

can hear is Crickets ? 

I haven’t heard many reports from the lunches, except the 

Lewisville one. Hey, if ANYONE is going to ANY of them (besides 

Lewisville), please write me at president@mavpca.org if you haven’t 

figured out the pattern by now. 

The hot season (can you call it that since it took so long to 

break 100 degrees?) is almost over, and our driving season is about 

to get started and finish off with a bang. We have an AX/TT weekend 

coming up on Sept 15/16 in Mineral Wells and our Season 

Finale Charity Autocross is on Oct 14th at Texas Motor Speedway. 

The DE season is going to be rolling again with Drivers 

Education events at Motorsport Ranch in September and October 

so you can get your skills up to try out Eagles Canyon in November. 

They have been doing a lot of work there to get the track ready for 

us, and we can’t wait to try out the new track. 

And Founders Day will be on November 10th at a place called 

Austin Ranch in Grapevine. Stay tuned for more details. 

Come on out and join the fun! See you soon!

Maverick Minutes 

by Charlie Davis 

August Board meeting. In attendance: James 

Shoffit, Wendy Shoffit, Jan Mayo, Teri Davis, 

Charlie Davis, Christy Dominick, Denny Payne, 

Lisa Steele, Bob Kuykendall, Joel Nannis, Colin 

Graidage, Mark Gluck, and Travis Howard. 

James called the meeting to order at 7:04 

PM. He then declined to comment, preferring to 

save his remarks until the end of the meeting. He did introduce 

Colin as our new DE Chair. 

Colin’s first report was short and sweet: All critical positions 

are filled. Joel chimed in and said we are possibly looking 

into a night DE at TMS for next year. 

Denny continues to update the website. He needs event 

chairs to contact him via e-mail to ensure the website has accurate 

information about their events. 

Wendy took this opportunity to tell Teri that her rally on 

the 18th is not on the website. She also said the results of the 

last rally are also not there. She will send everyone a list of what 

needs to be updated on the website. We discussed whether the 

Club Race page should be pulled or left as it is. 

This led to a discussion of the DE ad for Slipstream. Wendy 

mentioned that submitting a word document with embedded 

photos was problematic for use with Quark. Bob K suggested 

that DE ads should show more street cars and not so many race 

cars. Colin promised to have better pictures next time. At the 

moment we’re looking for DE pictures. Someone suggested that 

Dennis Chamberlain might have some. 

Christy asked about artwork for the Selcer trophy. Jan had 

it. She will scan it and send it to Christy. Someone suggested 

we should list all the past Selcer winners on the website. Christy 

said we needed do a Goodie Store ad and wondered what size? 

Jan suggested both a full and half page ad be produced. 

Lisa suggested we have several tiers of advertisers, to make 

it easier to locate important sponsor’s ads in prominent places. 

We clarified that all Slipstream advertisers get website ads too. 

Lisa said she was ready to send invoices for 2008 Slipstream 

advertising and wondered if we were happy with ad rates. We 

weren’t. Bob K mentioned that he thought that we had agreed 

to bump ad rates. Joel made a motion that we raise the ad rates 

15% without a second. Wendy made a motion that we increase 

ad rates 20% and it passed unanimously. 

Bob K passed out copies of our quarterly financial report. 

He explained that the apparent loss of $26,000 was a bit misleading. 

First, $10,000 was the loss from the recent Club Race. 

Much of the rest is due to our having to make deposits on the 

venues for future events (AX, TT, and DE). Lastly, we bill our 

advertisers on a yearly basis, which is pending. He insists that 

our financial standing is not nearly as dire as it appears, and that 

adding a third fall DE should help our cash situation. 

Travis reported that tech inspection has been slow this 

month. He inquired if we have ever had a Dyno Day? We have, 

but it has been several years. We discussed having one again. 

Mark said he will start laying out ads, real-soon-now. 

Teri reported that the walking rally of the Nasher sculpture 

center is almost ready. Bob K announced his company, the Beck 

Group, will sponsor the event, absorbing the $8.00 entry fee. A 

standing ovation ensued. 

Joel thinks we have over 1300 members, but he didn’t seem 

too sure about this. He announced he had over 61 registrations 

for the September DE. He further reported that Joe McGlohen 

has resigned as Safety Chair. Bob Benson is the new Safety 

Chair for DE’s. Darron Shaffer continues as safety chair for AX- 

TT. 

Charlie brought the Truxster insurance and license renewal 

paperwork and gave it to Bob K for payment. 

Jan asked about the September Board Meeting. We had 

decided to have it on Thursday instead of Tuesday, due to the 

holiday. She needed ads. She mentioned that without a sponsor 

the charity autocross would probably lose money, somewhat 

defeating its purpose. Wendy wondered if Keith can get us a 

sponsor? 

Wendy made a motion that the region purchase a copy of 

Adobe InDesign (which is a $199 upgrade from PageMaker). 

The motion passed. 

Jan again stressed that she needs Parade stuff. She is looking 

for one article per major event at the Parade. 

8

James, after making us wait two hours, only announced that 

the winter National Board Meeting was scheduled for February 

2. The location has not yet been decided. James adjourned the 

meeting at 8:55 PM.

Peparing Your Car for a Maverick Concours d’ Elegance 

by Bob Bianconi 

Tips and Tricks from Our Judges 

Our May@Mayo’s Concours event drew lots of interest 

and participation. The cars were well prepared and 

were separated only by a few points within each class. 

So what’s it take to beat the car sitting next to you? That’s the 

idea, right? Well, read on. This is the first of 2 articles on 

Concours car preparation. This article will explain some common 

exterior preparation mistakes as seen by our judging 

teams. A future article will discuss preparing your interior. 

So, with microfiber towel (and beer) in hand, follow 

some of these tips and tricks from our judging teams and 

you’re almost guaranteed to… have a really clean car. And, 

maybe even collect a trophy at our Fall Concours. 

Exterior Paint 

Waxing is good: too much wax is bad. After you apply a 

nice coat of wax, go back and look for wax buildup between 

body panels, on door/hood edges, around the Porsche 

crest(!) and on rubber trim. Use your towel or even a few Q- 

tips to wipe away excess wax. (Note: after a beer or two, this 

may actually become good therapy). This doesn’t take long 

and it may make the difference between first place and second. 

Judges will always look for wax buildup in nooks and 

crannies. 

Another common mistake: Many folks spend all of their 

time putting a nice finish on their paint to the exclusion of 

the rest of the exterior. Pay attention to things like smudgefree 

glass, clean the visible portion of your brake calipers, 

clean the gas cap area and wipers/blades and don’t forget 

you’ll want bug-free license plates. Check out the judging 

guidelines on the Maverick Concours page for a list of 

things the judges look for (see link at the end of the article). 

This list is really your best guide for car preparation. 

Quoting one of our judges… 

Paint Chips 

You may lose a point or two for untouched-up rock 

chips. Use a tooth pick and let a tiny drop of paint flow into 

the chip through capillary action. Touchup techniques 

could be an entire article unto itself. Better yet; go to the carcare-online 

website for everything you ever wanted to know 

about paint touchup (see the “How-To” link on the left) 

Trim 

Make sure your rubber trim has a deep black uniform 

look to it. A number of products are available to turn that 

washed-out trim back to black such as Back-to-Black, 

Vinylex, etc. Got a white wax residue on your black rubber 

trim? Rub some peanut butter on it! Betcha the residue disappears. 

Wheels 

Wheels are easy. Take them off, lay them face down on 

the lawn, scrub everything in sight with strong soap (Dawn 

dish washing detergent again) and a stiff brush. Flip them 

right side up and continue with the cleaning. Next, wax 

them. 356 steel wheels are gray paint or chrome and take 

the wax well. Fuchs mags with flat black areas should not 

be waxed but the polished portion can be. Wheels painted 

body color take wax as well as the rest of the paint. While 

the wheels are off, touch up the lug nuts if needed.

Ithought the San Diego Parade was really cool. I’m sure the next 

one will be good, too. 

To me, the most hectic part of going to Parade is the packing 

and the drive there, but mostly the packing because it’s hard to 

pick what outfits to pack and all the shoes and accessories that go 

with them. But this trip was a little bit cooler because Geneva 

Spreen came with us most of the time. 

On the drive there we went through Carlsbad Caverns in 

New Mexico. It was really cool. There were a ton of bats and cave 

swallows that live there. When we were waiting for the bats to 

come out, we kept looking at our watches wondering why they 

were so late. My dad finally realized that he forgot about the Time 

Zone change. It turned out we were one hour behind! The caverns 

were really cool 

and deep. It was very 

humid and slippery. 

We spent the night in 

El Paso. The hotel was 

very confusing. There 

were two towers and 

paths that connected 

between them. Odd 

numbers in one building 

and even numbers 

in the other. We met up 

with quite a few people 

Our Author 

there. 

When we got to 

San Diego on Friday, we were pretty tired, so we checked in and 

went to our room. I have to admit I actually thought it would be 

nicer. Oh well, we can’t always get what we want. The next day we 

checked out the mall. It was really cool. We then got registered for 

Parade. Then in the evening we had dinner at a restaurant in the 

mall, called the Crocodile Café. We got dessert at the Cheesecake 

Factory. The line was out the door and down the street! 

Sunday while my mom worked in registration, my dad and I 

hung out. We 

met a really 

cute dog 

n a m e d 

Bullwinkle. 

Then later in 

the day, we 

had the 

W elcome 

Party. Since 

most of us 

kids didn’t 

exactly like 

Smiley Face 

the German 

food they 

had, there was a special kid’s area. No adults allowed, unless they 

had a little kid. 

On Monday it was the Concours. My dad had to get there 

earlier to work, so my mom and I slept in and went there later. It 

was very hot and sunny outside and unfortunately for us, we forgot 

to put on sunscreen and got major sunburns. The cars were

really clean and pretty, but one of my favorites was a green one 

with a smiley face on the front. I took a lot of neat pictures of cars. 

You might even see one of my pictures here. That night was the 

Concours banquet, so that meant babysitting for me and the rest 

of the kids. It was pretty nice. It had a movie, two laptops, Legos, 

a video game, and snacks and drinks. Most of us just played hide 

and go seek. I wish I could have done the slot cars during the 

babysitting, but we weren’t allowed to unless we were accompanied 

by our parents. But they were having a long boring fish 

smelling dinner instead. We were pretty lucky to have pizza! 

Tuesday I hung out with Geneva and her mom while my parents 

rallied. During most of the time, there was an art class for 

kids. After we finished the crafts there, we went swimming. 

Geneva finally learned how to dive by some older kids who taught 

her how. There was also the ice 

cream social and the beach party 

that day. During the beach party, 

my parents won first place in their 

first Parade rally. Yay! The water in 

the ocean was very cold, but I 

waded in pretty deep anyway. 

The next day was the 

autocross. We had to get up super 

early for that because my parents 

had to walk the course. Why can’t 

Jasmine’s 1st in the Art Show! they just bike it like I did in the 

Kids’ Autocross? We went to lunch 

at Carl’s, Jr. They make a mean Teriyaki Burger! Yummmm! For 

dinner we went to Sea World. Most of the lines were too long for 

us to ride. The banquet dinner was really good, but I fell asleep in 

the middle of the award ceremony. Then my parents woke me just 

in time for the fireworks. They were so close I could smell them 

burning and I could feel the rumble when they were launched. 

On the last day, we went to the San Diego Zoo. There were so 

many different kinds of plants and animals. We saw a peacock that 

had escaped and was eating Doritos on the sidewalk. My parents 

went to the last dinner on the USS Midway, but Geneva and I 

stayed again at babysitting. We had fun. 

This Parade was an amazing experience that I will never forget. 

But, of course that’s just like all the other amazing Parades. I 

can’t wait ‘til next year! 

Parade Tech Quiz 

by Teri Davis 

This Parade’s Tech Quiz was different. History questions were 

included and it also was shorter - 50 questions instead of the 

normal 100. This cut the time in half, but that didn’t matter 

much to me as five minutes was plenty to cover as much technical 

knowledge as I have. I spent another half hour trying to “logic” out 

some answers, but it comes down to either you know it or you don’t. 

Even those who are experts mis-guessed some of the multiple choice 

questions. Nevertheless, it’s an interesting exercise and I’m sure the 

gear-heads enjoyed it.

My First Parade Rally 

by Wendy Shoffit 

Thinking about our upcoming trip to Parade in San Diego, 

James and I decided several months ago that we would take 

our (new to us) 1983 911 SC to Parade rather than bring the 

race prepared 1978 911 SC. While we knew we were giving up the 

extra oomph we have become accustomed to for the autocross, we 

wanted to try something different and knew we wouldn’t last 4 

hours in race seats with no a/c. We had never participated in the 

TSD rally in any of the six Parades we’d attended. Maybe we were 

too intimidated by everyone’s opinions of it, maybe we were afraid 

of getting too hot, or maybe we just couldn’t fit Jasmine in the back 

of the race car with the full roll cage. Whatever the reasoning, we 

didn’t do it until this year. 

In preparation for our new adventure, we decided to take 

Teri Davis’ TSD rally school in June. She’d said that the focus 

would be on the Parade rally and she wouldn’t go easy on us, 

wanting us to be really prepared. Despite maxing out two of the 

three legs, we actually FOUND the one that most people didn’t 

and ended up taking first place. Amazing! It was not without a 

price, though, as I spent much of it thoroughly peeved after we 

maxed the first leg, when we fell for a trap and I thought we could 

have done better. 

Many of you know that I’m a tad bit on the competitive side. 

Okay okay…a LOT on the competitive side… so far gone that I 

can’t even see the line! I get irritated with myself when I perform 

poorly at autocrosses and am not much fun to be around then. 

Few people in this world have seen me at my worst, “casually tossing” 

a pool cue when I miss a critical shot or nearly beating my 

doubles tennis partner to death for hitting me in the back during 

his serve… TWICE! So, when I have heard countless stories of 

couples wanting to kill each other after a TSD rally, I had pretty 

much figured I had set myself up for failure. I decided at that 

point to change my definition of success. If I made it through 

without getting upset and tried to enjoy myself, I would count 

that as winning. If we happen to do well in the standings… so be 

it. My mantra became, “The fate of the world won’t be decided if 

we win a trophy.” I scribbled it down on every paper in the rally 

packet to remind me, along with smiley faces. Yeah, I know it was 

cheesy, but it worked. Only 

one time did I get frustrated, 

but we worked through it. 

Myra & Jerry Sutton going for their 

Rally trophy 

Teri accurately predicted 

two traps the rallymaster 

used and we didn’t fall for 

either of them! I also decided 

that I’d let James be the 

only driver and worry about 

the speed changes and I 

would be the navigator, 

reading ahead and looking for the clues. James and I worked very 

well as a team and never felt completely lost. We did, however, 

lose track of what time of day it was in the middle during a break. 

You end up getting so wrapped up in minutes, half minutes, 

100ths of a minute that the hour simply falls away. This prompted 

one of the more memorable exclamations of, “What the hell 

time is it?” Okay, so maybe there was a *little* more frustration at 

times. Sometimes it was more at the cars ahead, clearly going way 

under the designated speed (“MY sheet shows a CAST of 34… 

why are you going 27???) or at a stop light that went over the time 

Photos from the Parade Websie 

allowance (how RUDE). But, believe it or not, we actually SAW 

the scenery along the way! Southern California is spectacular. I 

highly recommend it. 

At the end of the rally, we had met our goal. Have fun, not get 

too mad, and avoid a divorce attorney at all costs. We tallied up 

our results and were happy with our calculated score… three hundred 

something. The lower the score the better. At every checkpoint 

you’re given your elapsed time. Your score is calculated in 

the hundredths of a minute that your time is off of the perfect 

time for that leg. One point is given per hundredth of a minute 

you’re either fast or slow. Zero is the perfect score. (We didn’t have 

any zeroes.) We turned in our scorecards, enjoyed the ice cream 

social, and hung out that afternoon by the pool with the Spreens 

while Jasmine and Geneva happily swam. It was a good day. 

That evening was the beach party. We watched everyone 

make sand castles, nearly killed ourselves in the tug of war contest 

(for the Zone Challenge), and watched in amusement while some 

people participated in the Frisbee challenge. After the Mexican 

buffet dinner, everyone gathered around the clubhouse building 

to watch the rally awards. We stood around Myra and Jerry Sutton 

who asked if we’d seen the results. We hadn’t thought much about 

it, but decided we 

wanted it to be a 

surprise if we were 

in trophy range. 

We’d heard a few 

mentions of some 

high scores and 

realized our score 

wasn’t the worst! 

When they got to 

the unequipped 

class, they started 

James & Wendy blown away at their 

first 1st place Rally Award 

counting down 

around 12th place 

with the Suttons 

winning that trophy with a score of 902. Oh cool! Since I thought 

our score was in the 300s, we realized we’d won a trophy, but how 

good? The scores were dropping, the place was getting better and 

better. They finally called our names with a score of 261 and 

FIRST place (out of 72 cars)! I may be bad at math, but it turns 

out that I do okay at rallying. Excitement and elation followed as 

we went to the front to collect our trophies AND special 

Yokohama jackets. It was awesome! People try for years to get this 

coveted place and here we were able to achieve it our first time 

out. 

I think maybe we ought to quit while we’re ahead, as perhaps 

the only way to go from here is down. Nah… it was too much fun. 

Next time, we’ll even bring a digital watch so we don’t leave a 

minute late from a checkpoint because James can’t read which 

minute his analog watch is on! I wonder how low our score could 

have been if we’d had an accurate time piece? Hmmmmm… I 

guess we’ll have to find out next year in Charlotte. Is the scenery 

pretty there? I wonder. Why don’t you come with us next year and 

see for yourselves?! Remember to have fun and for SURE take 

Teri’s rally school! Thanks, Teri!

We are now building and taking orders for Porsche 924/944's for SCCA, PCA and NASA racing for 

the 2007 season. 

With the addition of the PCA 944-SPEC (SP1-SP3) series, there is now a greater than ever venue 

to economically race these cars. In SCCA, you can have a GT2, GT3, EP, or ITA racer. With PCA, 

you can pick from a number of classes, dependent upon your car. 

Cars are built from mild to wild, depending upon what class you plan to enter and to what level 

you want to participate. 

Our experience building and racing Porsches goes back to our 911's in the mid and late 70's, 

and 944's in the 80's in SCCA, IMSA GTU and Firehawk, PCA in the late and early 80's/90's, 

and Speedvision GT, Rolex GT and GT in 2000 up. In addition to the Porsches, we have had a 

hand in building five AUDI S4's for the Grand AM Cup, and a couple of AUDI TT's for SCCA. 

We can build on our inventory of chassis's, or take yours and develop it into the race car you want. 

Get ready for the 2007 season NOW!! We plan to attend and support as many race events for 

2007 as our racing schedule will allow.

Happy Hour at 

Rio Mambo 

by Dennis Chamberlain 

Let’s see – we learned last December that Rio 

Mambo is a Mexican Food restaurant. We learned 

that it was inexpensive, and that the food was good. 

And Judy Brodigan gave us a tip – to try the seafood 

quesadillas. This time, we assembled first in the bar 

and found that it 

is colorful and 

inviting. 

It was deja 

vu all over again 

- Ed and Mark 

Demas (the “car 

talk” guys) were 

there and they 

brought their 

wives Janice and 

Janet. Bob Lara Tafel, Roger, Heather & Thomas Briggs 

Lewis was there 

with his gadget of the month – his new iPhone. Roger 

Briggs was a new member attendee, and he brought 

his wife Heather, 

his sister Lara 

Tafel, and his 

son Thomas. 

Cheryl and 

Doug Koeppen 

were attending 

their first happy 

hour after having 

purchased a 

low mileage, 

Cheryl and Doug Koeppen 

1996 arena red 

C2 in Boston. They drove it from Boston to Dallas 

and the owner said “what – you’re going to put all those 

miles on my car?” 

So we’ll definitely be 

returning to Rio Mambo in the 

future. And speaking of 

Mexican food, make a note of 

our September 20 th location – 

Uncle Julio’s in North Dallas.

1811 Preston Road (at Forest Lane), Dallas, TX 75230 

Finish location to be announced. 

Each entry requires: Licensed driver with proof of auto insurance • A navigator • A clipboard or 

other hard writing surface • Pen or pencil 

No previous rally experience required! 

The event will be something entirely new in RoadRally for the DFW area ... a map rally based on 

the British fave “Plot and Bash.” Entrants will be given a genuine Mapsco map and a set of rules. 

Using these rules, they will determine the proper route on the map, and then drive that route. You 

will note certain landmarks along the route to let us know that you went the correct way. 

The entrant’s experience determines the class declared (First Timer, Novice, General or Master). Minor children 

(under 18) must have a signed release from both parents. 

Entry fee: $30 at the event for SCCA members 

$35 for non-members • $5 discount for pre-registering 

To pre-register, visit

This is the 6th event in the 2007 Texas Region SCCA RoadRally Series, 

a projected seven event championship of entertaining road rallies. 

Vote for your favorite 

mustache! 

Hope to see you there!

Porsche Rennsport Reunion III 

Daytona International Speedway 

November 2-4, 2007 

Featuring the Legendary 917 and 956/962 

Porsche Club of America members will have the 

opportunity to spend an evening with fellow members 

and Porsche racing legends during the PCA Dinner Gala 

event at Rennsport Reunion III, to be held the evening of 

November 3, 2007 in the “500 Club” at the world famous 

Daytona International Speedway. But you will need to 

act quickly, as only 450 seats are available for this special 

program! 

Dinner registration will open on Tuesday, September 

18, 2007. PCA members will be able to visit www.pca.org 

to obtain the dinner registration form, which must be 

mailed (US Postal Service) with a check to the PCA 

National Office. Dinner registrations will be taken on a 

first come, first served basis, postmarked no earlier than 

the opening day of registration. If the dinner is sold out 

on the first day, Parade oversubscription procedures will 

apply. Tickets are $40 per person. A cash bar will be 

available. Speakers are being arranged by Porsche Cars 

North America. 

Rennsport Reunion III is a PCNA event, administered 

by Brian Redman’s Intercontinental Events and the 

Daytona International Speedway. 

In addition to the banquet, PCA will be assisting 

with several activities: 

1. Porsche model-specific parking corrals 

2. “History of Porsche” car display (with Carrera 

Club Coupe special exhibit) 

3. Supervised track touring 

4. PCA Hospitality and membership area 

5. Scrutineering of the racecars 

6. PCA Dinner – Evening of November 3, 2007 as 

detailed above 

7. PCA volunteers to assist with our involvement 

We are still seeking superb original examples of each 

Porsche production model for the “History of Porsche” 

display, which will run for three days, November 2-4, 

2007. Production models will include those marketed by 

Porsche as distinct models. For example, in the earlynineties 

911 (964) line, the C4, C2 and Turbo will each be 

represented. Vehicles chosen to represent the different 

models will include a variety of body styles (Cabriolet, 

Targa, Coupe). The PCA Rennsport committee will 

make the final vehicle selections. Please contact the display 

chairman, Steve Gaglione 

at nine.fourteen@verizon.net 

or 813 -978-3433 for an application 

if you are interested in 

participating in this unique 

display. (For vintage/historic 

racecars or PCA Club Race 

cars, please go directly to the 

official Rennsport site, 

www.rennsport2007.com). 

We are also still looking for PCA volunteer workers 

to assist with the various activities listed above. Special 

commemorative shirts will be provided to the volunteers 

by Porsche Cars North America, to acknowledge their 

participation. To volunteer, please contact Bob and Dora 

Barren at dorabob@comcast.net or 904-268-8877 in the 

evening.

Welcome, New Members! 

You have just joined one of the best and most active PCA 

Regions in the country! Some clubs focus solely on social 

events, while others focus on just show and shine concours 

events. Maverick Region is a club that focuses on providing 

our members with the tools necessary to have the ultimate in 

driving experiences. 

You will notice that our region has many Time Trials, 

Autocrosses, and Drivers’ Education (DE) events (in addition 

to a yearly Club Race). This has been the spirit of the region 

for quite some time. We have some of the finest instructors in 

the country. Make sure you take full advantage of the driving 

experiences we have to offer. 

Racing is not ALL we focus on, though. If racing doesn’t 

suit you, we have monthly happy hours, three monthly lunch 

gatherings, regular dinner socials, frequent driving tours on 

some fabulous roads in and around Texas, driving rallies (fun 

for the whole family), and regular opportunities to support 

our perpetual charity, the Hope Shelter. 

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

might just add something extra to the calendar. 

Please also feel free to share article ideas (and submissions)to 

editor@mavpca.org. 

We’d love to hear 

from you!
