SPROCKETS: Lots of Events Left for 2019!
by David Robertson, Region President
Here we are getting into the winter season once
again. This, by no stretch, means that we are slowing
down; in fact some of the best events of the year are
coming up! There are more driving events in November:
an autocross on the 3rd and a DE the weekend of the
9th and 10th. Mavs & Mochas is held every month,
and there are lots of casual gatherings and impromptu
get-togethers just about every weekend. Check out the
tech session on November 16 - these are always great
meetups with very interesting topics.
With only a limited number of weekends during the
month, you may notice that some of our events end
up on the same day or even at the same time. I know
this can sometimes be frustrating, but I consider it a
good problem to have. There have never been so many
options for activities to enjoy as we have right now.
The options are expanding, but available times on
weekends to get together will always remain the same,
and sometimes we just don’t have enough time in the
month. If you
We are leading up to Founders
Day which is the biggest event of
the year! Saturday December 7th
is the annual celebration of our
Maverick Region PCA.
have to choose
between two
events, you
will have
another chance
very soon!
We will have
a lot to celebrate from a banner year in 2019. Five
national awards, including Region of The Year, record
growth in membership, and record attendance at our
events should be more than enough reason for you
to come out and enjoy the day. There will be three
separate events starting in the morning with Mavs &
MAV OF THE MONTH:
Scott Kellogg
Mochas at Nordstrom NorthPark, a toy drive in the
afternoon, and then the banquet event that evening at
Park Place Porsche Grapevine.
On a sad note, our Rally Chair, Jay Lynch,
recently passed away after a brief illness. Jay was a
very active participant in the Maverick Region. In
my last conversation with him, Jay was very excited
about the recent success of the Poker Rally and very
enthusiastic about future events he had planned. Our
recent Halloween Rally was organized in his honor.
We will all remember Jay’s big presence and always
present smile.
Scott has been the Maverick Region Concours Co-Chair for over 6 months now
and has big plans for the program. He has become an integral part of the Maverick
Region. His ideas, his energy and his willingness to assist with anything needed is
one reason why this region is growing so consistently. Scott is involved with most
M&M’s and car shows in which our region hosts or participates. He hosted the
People’s Choice show and shine this past September and also organized the parking
of our club’s Porsches that participated in the Park Place Luxury and Super Car
Showcase on the 18th Fairway at The Four Seasons. Scott’s background in organizing
and judging car shows is a big plus for our Concours program and we can’t wait to
see what he has planned. Thank you, Scott!

Welcome to the results of the 2019 Porsche Maverick

you know you want to do it!
The winners for the day were as follows:
Glenn Burgess, 1962 356

It was a beautiful day
for the show here in North
Texas. There was such
nice weather and a large
number of beautiful cars
to see. Who could ask for
more? (Other than power
for the DJ . . . .)
Once we all settled in
and went over every inch
of our cars, we all started
looking around, chatting,
bench racing, and trying
to pick our favorite cars .
. . besides our own. Wink
wink nudge nudge.
Strike a pose little guy!
Yann Cortina and Robert Caglia
So many people helped out to make this show a
success, including Bill Orr, who tabulated the scores
from home. A big shout out goes to Concours Co-
Chair Mike Mahoney, and especially to Volunteer Chair
Landon Stogner, who was kind enough to pick up the
sponsor car from Park Place Porsche Dallas, and deliver
the tent, table, and awards!

Congrats to all! Every car looked wonderful!
Thank you all for taking the time to rub and shine
and attend . . . even you cigar smokers out in the
back. Yes, we saw you!
Overall, a
great time was
had by all.

Founders Day 2019
by Debi Kruder
Can you imagine more than 300 Mavericks and their
favorite Porsches coming together on the biggest event
of the year? You will soon hear their engines, recognize
the laughter, and experience what’s my favorite event of
the year!
On Saturday, December 7th, we will celebrate
57 years as a Maverick Region and its many
accomplishments at our annual Founders Day. It’s
one day, 3 events, and over 3000 members! Mark
your calendars and register today.
The morning will kick off with our monthly Mavs &
Mochas bright and early at Nordstrom’s North Park where
we will also host the 3rd annual Top Ten People’s Choice
Car Show. Nordstrom continues to be a generous host to
our members generously opening their department store
doors early to allow us to sneak through for coffee and
shopping. And what better time of year than December?
So, whether rain or shine, bring your Porsche and your
pocket book to start that Christmas shopping!
Speaking of shopping, don’t forget to load up your
Porsche too with holiday gifts for children in need for our
3rd annual Mavs Toy Parade. Participating cars will meet
at the Walmart located at 1700 Dallas Parkway in Plano.
As last year, the Maverick PCA is partnering with the
Plano Police Department in support of Plano Christmas
Cops. We are excited to lead the parade driving our ’64 356
with windows full of stuffed animals, baby dolls, and all
things merry with a Christmas tree on top to add to the fun!
So motor your car full of new and unwrapped toys, baby
supplies, and new coats for all ages, but especially teens.
Once your car is unloaded, feel free to enjoy downtown
Plano with your favorite Mavs and pick a lunch spot
before heading home for a quick nap. Then it’s time to
photos provided by Author
get dressed in your holiday attire! Feel free to dress up
or down in your favorite party dress, holiday sweater, or
even your cowboy boots cause it’s time to celebrate! Meet
us at Grapevine Porsche for festivities that begin at 7pm.
Early registration discount for this event is given through
November 20th at $45 per person (increases to regular
rate of $55 after that date.)
What do you have to look forward to at the Founders
Day evening event? First, we are celebrating 50 years of
the Porsche 914 and are excited to showcase many in our
club all while enjoying Pecan Lodge, an open bar, and
mingling with your favorite Mavs. Pecan Lodge will be
catering their award-winning pulled pork, smoked brisket
and new this year southern fried chicken, salad, and even
dessert to include peach cobbler and cupcakes. As the
evening progresses, members make their final votes for
our 2020 officers, hear the name of the recipient for the
James Shoffit Maverick of the Year Award, pick up their
silent auction purchased items before heading home with
a commemorative poster and car decal.
In addition, our 2nd annual online silent auction for
our charity the Huffaker-Hughes Hope House is ready for
viewing and bidding! Just visit the website, www.mav.pca.
org/FoundersDay and start bidding now! Our Founder’s
Day Silent Auction is our largest financial contributor to
our Mav PCA charity and features exclusive Founder’s
Day Event Mugs, the finest Porsche gear, gift certificates
to your Porsche’s favorite shop, and more! Every Porsche
needs an oil change so why not purchase in our silent
auction to support this great cause! Hope exists to
eliminate domestic violence through intervention, offering
shelter, counseling, support and education to promote the
healing of abusive relationships. Winning bidders pick up
their purchased items on Founders Day at either Mavs &
Mochas or at the evening event following President David
Robertson’s closing comments.
Registration is now available online and mavpca.org
and on social media and early registrants don’t forget
receive a discounted rate. Founders Day 2019 is sure to
“drive” to one of our highest attended events in the history
of the club and we can’t wait to see you there! Attend 1,
2, or all 3 great events!

September Mavs & Mochas: Texas Harley-Davidson
by Carl Adee
photos provided by Greg Ward and Scott Kerfoot
On a hot and sunny Texas
Saturday two automotive legends
came together again. Adam Smith’s
Texas Harley-Davidson hosted the
September Mavs & Mochas in just
the latest crossover event between the
iconic motorcycle
company and
Porsche. The two
teamed up back in
1976 on Project Nova
and again in 1997 on
the V-Rod engine.
This time Texas
Harley-Davidson
supplied ample
parking for over
120 members,
including more than
30 black cars, which
was the color of the
month. They also
provided some much-needed Felix
Coffee and donuts which helped fuel
the conversation and comradery.
As always, we had an extensive
collection of Porsche models to choose
from. Everything from classic 356s to
our mid-engine beauties like 914s,
Boxsters, and Caymans. We had a
large contingent of front engine 924,
928, and 944 models, and of course
many 911s that spanned generations,
including one that saw plenty of
attention: a beautiful
red GT2 RS with
Weissach package.
Hopefully everyone
got to stop by the Park
Place Dallas
sponsorship tent to
pick up a few goodies,
including toy cars for
our junior members
and new pop sockets
for your phones. We
hope to see everyone
on November 2 at
Montgomery Plaza in
Fort Worth!

Autocross Series: Event 8 at Lone Star Park
by Mark Schnoerr, Region Autocross Chair
photos by Robert Kirby of Lightspeed Images
The Autocross event Sunday, September 15, was
held at the excellent Lone Star Park site in Grand
Prairie, Texas.
The course was a very fast and challenging layout
that really favored the faster cars, but there were enough
turns for the lesser Porsches to keep making a comeback
in the tight sections, sloloms and sweeping turns.
The first quick Porsche today was our first season
competitor in class P3, Mass Watanabe in his Red
Boxster S with a class winning best time of 57.221
seconds. Mas was fastest Porsche over the Class P1
winning 914 of Mark Schnoerr who did a 57.769.
In the Performance Index, the first quick was the
Mark Schnoerr 914 by just 0:014 seconds. So things
were very exciting trying to stay ahead of the very
quick cars on this track.
In class P0, Igor was only a few seconds behind in
his Cayenne GTS to win his class again. These big
SUVs can really attack on an autocross course.
In class P1, Ed Mayo was second in his 1972 911S,
Sigrid Schnoerr was right behind him in her 914,

Cars & Cannoli Recap: September
by Yann Cortina
photos by Micheal Durovick
As usual, we
pulled in early
with a great
group of PCA
members so we
could secure a
good Porsche
spot prior to
the arrival of
Lamborghinis,
Ferraris, and
other supercars.
Daniel Coyle
(APEX Owner),
Josh Jones
(Coverica VP),
and crew did
magnificent work
on organizing the
event as usual.
Oh, did I say
plenty of fresh
coffee and donuts
too? I must say
that it is a great
way to recognize
exotic car owners
who bring their
beloved vehicles to other events in the area, such as
Mavs & Mochas, Cars and Cantina, and Cars and
Coffee Southlake.
There’s no admission fee technically, but most of the
gentlemen parking at Cars and Cannoli have spent
more for the privilege of being here than the average
person makes in several years. As you approach the
gate, Daniel Coyle greets you; he is your only ticket to
the spectacular event, and the only way to gain entry.
There are off-duty Dallas police: one at entry and one at
exit, as well as secured perimeter fence/walls. Some of
the most common feedback that I have heard over and
over is that people can leave a million-dollar car
unlocked and they don’t have to worry about it. It is a
fantastic place to spend a few hours on the third
Saturday of each month.

Maverick Marktpreis: 944
by Peter Wen
Nothing screams “The ‘80s” like
sky-high hair-dos, big shoulder
pads, and . . . pop-up headlights!
Porsche continued the transaxle
model parade and introduced the
944 in 1982. An evolution from
the Volkswagen-influenced 924,
the 944 carried over the distinctive
headlights and sexy styling cues
from the 924 Turbo. However,
under the hood, the new 944 was
all Porsche. No longer did it share
an engine with VW-Audi; it was
equipped with the brand new 2.5L
inline four developed by Porsche.
This engine was basically half of
the 928’s V8.
With near 50-50 weight
distribution, the 944 was praised
for its incredible handling. It won
Car and Driver’s Best Handling
Production Car in America in ‘84
and 10Best Steering Car in ‘85.
The 944 proved to be a huge hit
for Porsche. The wait list for one
was nearly two-and-a-half YEARS
upon introduction! At the end, over
163,000 944s were produced. It is
one of the most successful sports
cars in Porsche’s history.
Today, 944s are very reasonably
priced. Its 0-60 time may not turn
any heads, but it more than made
up for it with its superb handling
and period-correct styling.

$32,500
$25 ,000

Hagerty Valuation Tool:
1990 944 S4 Coupe

Fun fact: The 944 was featured in the movie “Sixteen
Candles.” The license plate number was 21850, which
was the director John Hughes’ birthday: Feb 18, 1950.
Coincidentally, the star of the movie, Molly Ringwald,
was also born on Feb 18!

Coffee, Cars & Conversation
by Bill Kruder
photos provided by author
This month was decades in the
making. Most of you have seen his ad
in Slipstream on the inside back cover
every month since 1978. As a matter
of fact he has run an ad with us for
492 continuous issues. As Advertising
Chair, I got the opportunity to ask
him each of the last three years if he
is renewing his ad, and each time he
is the first to come back and say yes.
The MRPCA and I appreciate his
enthusiasm in being a club sponsor
and contributor to our annual
Founders Day Silent Auction.
So here is the next in my
series of “conversations” I
would like to share with you:
Steve Louden, Enthusiast since
1960
Bill Kruder: So I know you
are not originally from here,
where again?
Steve Louden: I’m
originally from Fairfield,
Iowa; it’s a small
town about two hours
southeast of Des Moines,
not far from Burlington.
We moved to Sarasota,
Florida before eventually landing
in Dallas.
BK: What brought you to Dallas?
SL: I went to Florida State, earning
a B.S. in Business. Ford Motor
Company hired me right after
graduation, 1966, and I moved to
Dallas. I was a Tech Department
Sales and Service Rep. After that
I became the Marketing Manager
for Lincoln Mercury for the Texas
and Oklahoma region. I did that
until 1977, when they wanted to
promote me to Detroit, but I didn’t
see that happening.
20 November
BK: But the Ford job almost didn’t
happen I hear?
SL: Ford was on campus and had a
sign-up board posted; it had maybe
one or two openings left. However
there was a notice that said you had to
have a 3.0 GPA and I had a 2.5 GPA.
I signed up anyway, thinking “what
the heck.” Well I get to the interview
and they wondered why I was there
with just a 2.5. I just said I loved cars,
I know a lot about cars, and I want to
work for Ford. I worked for Ford for
the next 11 years.
Steve Louden and a photo of his 1977 GTU build at Sebring in 1978
BK: So what was next?
SL: I had always had this gift, I
guess you would say, to tinker with
things, and been working on and
building cars, so that’s how Louden
Motorcars got started in 1977, in a
rented building about a ½ mile from
this building today.
BK: I have to ask: with all the places
you could have chosen to open a
shop, why here?
SL: Well in the late ‘70s and early
‘80s we had two dealerships around
the corner you could say. One was
John Roberts BMW and the other
was Forest Lane Porsche+Audi.
Forest Lane was the biggest Porsche
dealership in the country back then,
so I thought it made sense to be here.
So far, despite all the ups and downs,
it’s been the right move (says smiling)
as we built this building in 1980 and
we are still here.
BK: So I’ve heard you built your
first car?
SL: True, I was only 18. I built an
H-Modified SCCA Crosley-powered
racecar with a Devin fiberglass body.
At 18 I couldn’t drive it on
the track so I had friends
race it for me. We raced
it at SCCA Regional races
in Florida, which included
races at Sebring and
Daytona.
BK: But this was just the
start of racing for you,
right?
SL: It was! As much as I
loved building and working
on cars, I loved to race. In
1968 I ran a Lotus Super 7
out in Riverside, CA. Then
in 1969 I got into Formula
Ford. That December we were at the
World Championship at Sebring and
we took 6th of 50. First independent
non-factory-sponsored car to finish.
BK: What made you stop racing?
SL: Well that was in ‘72-’73. I was
racing a Brabham BT29 at Road
Atlanta. Gordon Smiley crashed into
the rear of my car on the first lap. I
climbed out, I said “I’m DONE,”and
that was it - no looking back. Smiley
later killed himself in practice for the
Indy 500.
BK: But you still built cars after this?
SL: Yes I did. In 1977 two guys here
had me build a 1977 Porsche 911 GTU (these were under
2.5-liter IMSA cars) and it was raced in 1978 at Sebring
and finished.
BK: These two guys - anyone we know?
SL: Wendall Turley, pretty well-known attorney in Dallas;
most famous today with his name up on the building along
Central Expressway near Mockingbird. The other was
M.L. Spear, a CPA in Dallas, who back then was racing
a lot and eventually raced a couple times I believe at Le
Mans, once for a Dallas-based team. Funny thing is that
M.L. still is my accountant (with a smile).
BK: So I hear you not only have attended Le Mans but you
were there for a pretty special race?
SL: True! Ford had just hired me and I really wanted to
be part of the racing program. That being said, in 1966
I decided to go to Le Mans to watch the Ford vs. Ferrari
showdown. Well, as we all know now, what a race it
turned out to be, with Ford taking 1-2-3, and I was there.
Ford quit racing a couple of years later, so my desire to get
in on their racing program evaporated.
BK: Let’s talk cars now. First one?
SL: That was a 1950 Crosley Hot Shot. I added a
supercharger to it and drove it all through high school.
BK: And first Porsche?
SL: That was our ‘79 911SC, Grand Prix White. We
bought it in the late ‘80s, had it for 20-plus years, and
sold it about five years ago due to back surgery and the
difficulty of getting in and out.
BK: Tell me about how you and Judy met.
SL: Well that was pretty much pure luck; we were both on
a ski trip in Park City. It was ski club trip from Dallas. I
was on it with some friends, and she was there with her
brother. Funny though - I saw her there and thought she
was there with a boyfriend. I kind of scouted her out and
somehow found out it was her brother, and as they say the
rest is history. We have been married now for 44 years, we
have Derek our son and two grand kids now.
Every month as I write the interview I think the same
thing: what if . . . . What if I had not joined PCA all those
years ago; what if Steve had not advertised with us for
some 41 years now?
So if and when you meet someone new, don’t miss out on
“Driving Friendships”!
We’ll give
you an
assist on
your future
goals.
Contact me to learn how you can get
the most out of retirement.

The Garage Project: Part 2
by Robert Turner
I was smart for a change. Figuring the project would
take at least a day to complete, I took a few extra days
off around Memorial Day. After the garage was done, I’d
spend the rest of the weekend admiring my handiwork and
floating in the pool, enjoying tasty malted beverages.
(Sound of hysterical laughter) Yo, Rob! Like this is
going to be easy? Have you seen the size of this garage? It’s
Large! Not to mention the ceiling needs to be painted too.
Yeah. Maybe I took a damn big bite of something that had
‘Beast’ written all over it. I spent one whole day doing prep
work: taping and laying paper. Then I spent a whole ten to
fifteen minutes figuring out how the Wagner Power Sprayer
worked. In retrospect, I should have spent maybe thirty to
forty minutes with it before trying to paint on an actual wall.
The first results were – well let’s just say they kinda sucked.
Side note: I have a car friend who says I should not
be allowed anywhere near paint. A few years ago, I had
a project to paint my tire trailer the same color, Slate
Gray Metallic, as my 968. The results were lousy; lots of
over spray and paint runs along every surface. I thought
it looked OK, but my friend, gasping for air in between
fits of laughter said, “Rob, you’re the worst painter in the
world!” Geez man, you hurt my feeling. Hey, I’m painting
a garage wall white, what could go wrong?
As it turns out, a lot. The Wagner Power Sprayer was
hard to use. I discovered you had to hold it in a special
way or it clogged easily. How do I know this? Copious
amounts of white paint splattering me and every surface
not covered with paper.
I walked upstairs and my wife burst out
laughing. This was going to be a long weekend.
So, I compromised and started bringing the
tasty malted beverages down to the garage to
get me though this project. Lots of cold tasty
malted beverages.
I’d do a whole section of wall and then take a break.
I made pretty good progress and got most of the walls
completed by Saturday evening. Sunday I’d do the stairs
leading to the house (after having removed the ugly carpet)
and the ceiling. A hitch developed. Since the Wagner put
out a fine mist of paint in the air around it, everything not
covered in the garage ended up with a light coating of paint
on it. Me included. I’d worn breathing protection, but it
wasn’t enough as I felt like I had to hack up half a lung at
the end of each day. The stairs were particularly challenging
as they are narrow with no ventilation. They were also the
most faded area in the entire garage and needed two coats.
I think I breathed in one coat and I do not want to talk
about what happened when I blew my nose…
By Sunday night I was gassed. So, Mrs. Turner propped
me up in a comfy chair, put a neat bourbon in my hand
and started the Monaco GP, which we’d taped earlier. I was
exhausted and did not move all day Monday. And for the
most part, I was mostly finished painting.
Tuesday dawned bright and early as I had to head out
of town for a business trip. Opening the garage door, I
marveled at my paint work. It didn’t look too bad. There
was only one large-ish section I’d missed on the ceiling.
Maybe nobody would notice it. Until a random stranger
passing in his car stopped, got out of his car, walked all
the way uphill to the top of my driveway, pointed to my
ceiling and said, “Missed a spot.” Oh well, Wagner Power
Sprayer, fine paint mist and paint splatter be damned, I
won’t be painting any more. I shooed the guy away and
closed the garage door. The Wagner has seen the last of me.
And on that exhaust note, see you all next time.

There are still a gazillion air-cooled 911s on the
road. A problem that has forever plagued the ’76-‘87
911s is the cylinder head studs.
A brief refresher: Since the start of production of
the 911 in 1964 and through 1967, Porsche used a
sand-cast engine case. The sand casting method is very
expensive since a foundry tech has to make a mold for
every engine. Also the cases are heavy because of the
amount of aluminum used. Around 1965, Volkswagen
started using the pressure-cast method of producing
engine cases. The molds are reusable with the pressure
cast method.
Manufacturers are always looking for ways of
reducing cost. So in 1968, VW engineers started using
a magnesium/aluminum alloy for the cases. They could
use less material since the magnesium would strengthen
the alloy. This probably worked great in the frigid
climes of Europe, but not so much here in the American
southwest. The cases were so rigid that the pressure
on the case exerted by the cylinder head studs (caused
by ever-increasing engine temps to meet emission
standards) would result in the threads in the holes for
the studs breaking. The result was loose cylinder heads,
compression loss, and severely diminished power.
In 1968, Porsche adopted the magnesium alloy
pressure cast method for case production. This worked
great in the 2.0 L-2.4 L engines. In 1974, Porsche bumped
the displacement to 2.7 liters. Engines were running
hotter to meet emissions (in 1975 they incorporated a
five-blade cooling fan to increase the engine temp).
I was a unit tech (engine and transmission repair) at
30 November

By Ed Mullenix
then Forest Lane Porsche+Audi. I’ll bet I put thread repair
inserts in 50 engines when I worked there. Porsche liked
their alloy pressure cast cases, so their fix was to change
the exhaust-side stud material from steel to “dilvar.”
Dilvar had the expansion coefficient of
aluminum; the theory was that the aluminum
cylinders were expanding more on the lower
(exhaust) side, causing the threads in the case to
fail. Unfortunately the dilvar alloy was so brittle,
the studs would break; so much for the bestlaid
plans of mice and engineers. The alloy was
extremely hard; carbide drill bits were required to
drill out a broken stud.
In 1976, with the introduction of the 911
Turbo, Porsche used aluminum as the case
material. It was more forgiving than the
magnesium alloy. They kept the aluminum cases
through the SC, 3.2 Carrera, 964 3.6, and the
993. Several iterations of head stud were tried.
The problem does not show up on the 964 or
993 cars but is a ticking time bomb on the SC
and 3.2 cars.
If you are thinking about the purchase of a
3.0 or 3.2 911, absolutely have a pre-purchase
inspection done. Include removal of the lower
valve covers (drain the oil out of the engine, to
be refilled later), with a torque wrench set at 12
ft-lbs (half the prescribed head nut torque of 24
ft-lb), turn the wrench, and observe if there is any
movement of the head nut. If there is any movement at
all, that stud is in an early stage of failure.
I have removed lower covers during the course of
an engine maintenance and had sections of broken
head stud with nut still attached fall out on the floor.
Replacing head studs is essentially doing a “top end”
on the engine. Depending on where the stud broke, it
could mean total disassembly - see attached pic of an SC
case with studs broken off inside the case. I no longer
use dilvar studs; I use steel studs for upper (intake side)
and lower (exhaust side). In 20 years, have not had a
single problem using steel studs.
Having fun!!

Oversteer: Letter from the Editor
by Kurt Scaggs, Managing Editor
While putting together this month’s issue and wondering
what new fangled technology I was going to bad-mouth, a
photo submitted by Steve Louden caught me eye. For those of
you that remember Slipstream in those days, thanks for sticking
around. For those of us that don’t, this
was the current issue in September
1978. Archie and Linda LeBron were
the editors and Barry Gibbs, President,
wrote about airbags and quartz-halogen
headlights. Cutting edge stuff. Ed Mayo
wrote an article called Crankshaft
Crisis. It begins: “Every so often I hear
of people who have overhauled a 356
or 912 and then shortly thereafter the
crankshaft breaks. If you’ve checked
the new price of crankshafts lately, you
know you can buy a decent running VW
for the price of the crankshaft.”
Well the more times change, the more they stay the same
don’t they? I imagine you can probably still buy a decent running
VW for the price of a 356 crankshaft. (I checked. They start at
a little over $4,000 depending on which you’re looking for.)
Slipstream has been a part of the club since its very beginning,
as a one page newsletter in September of 1963. Slipstream has
changed a lot through the years, but its mission has not: t o
bring Maverick members relatable and informative stories
and updates on things happening in the
club. I hope we’re still doing that.
As always, we are constantly looking
for interesting stories and contributors
to help telling them. There is a limit to
how many times I can insist that the
world (and its engine) is flat without
getting thrown out of the penthouse
Slipstream offices. If you have interest
in helping out with any aspect of the
club, please contact Landon Stogner,
our Volunteers Chair. He will get you
plugged in with an event that can use
your help. If you would like to share a
story, share your garage adventure or help us out at Slipstream,
please let me know. And if you’d just like to see Ed’s article
yourself, check out the archive at texashistory.unt.edu and
search “slipstream”. Enjoy the (virtual) drive!
