You will notice that our region has many Time<br />
Trials, Autocrosses, and Drivers’ Education (DE)<br />
events (in addition to a yearly Club Race). This<br />
has been the spirit of the region for quite some<br />
<br />
the country. Make sure you take full advantage<br />
of the driving experiences we have to offer.<br />
If this doesn’t suit you, we have monthly happy<br />
hours, and lunch gatherings, regular dinner socials,<br />
frequent driving tours on some fabulous roads in<br />
and around Texas, driving rallies (fun for the whole<br />
family), and regular opportunities to support our<br />
perpetual charity, The Huffaker Hughes Hope House.<br />
If we don’t have what you’re looking for, just<br />
ask us..we might just add something extra to the<br />
calendar. Please also feel free to share article<br />
ideas (and submissions) to editor@mavpca.org.<br />
We’d love to hear from you!<br />
