Prez Says
by James Shoffit, Maverick Region President
T
he most important event of the year is
coming up very quickly. Hopefully you
are reading this BEFORE it has happened!
Founders’ Day is happening at the Southfork
Ranch about 20 miles north of downtown
Dallas, on November 9th. If you get there before
6pm, there will be a tour of the ranch! RSVP as
quickly as you can!
But first, the morning of Founders’ Day there will be a
Charity Autocross at Pennington Field (Central Exit, just south
of 183 in Bedford). All the profits from this event go directly to
the Hope Shelter in Mineral Wells, the home for victims of
domestic violence.
Parade plans for 2004 are going well. We have met with the
City of Fort Worth regarding Concours locations. The city officials all liked our presentation and thought it sounded like it
would work. There are still thousands of plans to be made, but
progress is going quite well.
I am writing this just after the final Autocross of the season.
As Timing and Scoring chair, I am compiling and verifying all
the driving event trophies that will be awarded at Founders’
Day. But this last Autocross was something special – with only
13 participants, everyone was a crucial worker! We got all our
runs done by 10:40 in the morning, and had a wonderful lunch
at the Farm House in Cool.
The board meeting will be on November 6th, and the
Lunches in November are on the 19th and 26th. Our driving
season is over, so it is strictly socials for the rest of the year. The
November Happy Hour will be at TBC Indoor Racing on I35 in
Dallas, just South of Regal Row. Those are the types of events
that I really enjoy – the combination of social, driving, and
competition!
. . . combination of social, driving, and
competition. . .
The annual Holiday Party will be hosted by Alan and Kay
Leibel this year, who have graciously offered their home for the
club! This will be on December 7th; see page 13 for all the
details.
We have something for everyone, so come on out, and join
the fun!

Because I Said So
by Wendy Shoffit, Editor
I
’m just going to come out and say it... I have a
gripe this month. Yes, I know it’s totally out of
character for me, but I’m going to go out on a
limb and take a chance that you might not like
what I have to say. I apologize in advance if I offend
you in any way.
I’ve been frustrated lately with comments I’ve
received from several members about their not
knowing about some event or another. It’s seemingly been a shock
that an event is “this weekend” and that if they had known, they
would have planned to be there. Frankly, I don’t know how much
more I can do to give advance warning. The next 3 months’ worth of
events are listed on the calendar page (page 1), it is also on the
website, and I try extremely hard to get event ads in Slipstream in a
timely manner. Yes, I know... the last couple of issues have been
later than usual. Believe it or not, things come up in life that,
unfortunately, mean Slipstream takes a back seat. Most people
understand that when I tell them. I hope you all do.
I realize that for all of you life happens as well. Most of you don’t
plan life events around the Maverick Region schedule. Here’s what I
ask, though. If there is a certain type of event you want to participate
in (Happy Hours, Autocrosses, DE’s, social events, etc.), please
please please look ahead in the calendar and mark the date on your
calendar. Put it in your Palm Pilot if you have to. I hate always saying,
“Mark Your Calendars” on an event ad. It seems redundant. I would
think if you want to attend a function, you’ll do it on your own. You
are all big boys and girls who manage your schedules every single day.
Now, I’m not going to stop putting the reminders out there, but
I hope that you will all plan a little further ahead so that when
something you’ve been wanting to do comes up, it won’t catch you off
guard.
Enough of all that. Onward and upward! As James mentioned,
coming up very quickly is Founders’ Day. That’s an event I look
forward to every year. I really like having a reason to dress up at least
once a year! Seeing James in a tux reminds me of our wedding day. It
gives me warm fuzzies all over. I also really enjoy giving and receiving
awards! The smiles are always amazing. I’ve never been to Southfork
Ranch, so I hope I have time to take the tour. I grew up watching
Dallas, Falcon Crest, Matlock, and Hawaii Five-O with my grandmother. Ahhhh, more warm fuzzies! I hope to see many of you there.
Oh, before I forget, the Addison Lunch location has changed.
Since the Good Eats on Midway closed down, we have temporarily
decided to meet at the TGI Friday’s at the N. Dallas Tollway and Belt
Line in Addison. A new restaurant, the Texana Grill, is taking over the
Good Eats spot soon. We’ve been told that they have great food. If it’s
good enough, we might change the lunch location again. Watch for
future notices (and mark your calendar).
Lastly, we are looking at options to reduce our Slipstream
printing costs. Since it is published online now, if you are interested in
receiving only an electronic version and stop your printed copy, email
me editor@mavpca.org and we’ll get you set up. Thanks!
Maverick Minutes
by Andy Mears, Secretary
T
he October Board Meeting was held at the
home of James and Wendy Shoffit and got
started on time at 7:00 PM. There was a
good turnout for both the pre-meeting dinner and
the regular meeting.
Dennis Chamberlain reported on the latest
happy hours and wanted to remind everyone of
the upcoming events.
A motion was made to provide financial assistance to The
Hope Shelter in Mineral Wells, being that they are in dire financial
need. The Maverick Region has elected to advance expected
proceeds from the scheduled November Charity Autocross. As a
reminder to everyone, this year’s Charity AX will be on November
9 and in town at Pennington Field. Look for the ad on page 2.
Cody Sears reported on the good time had by everyone that
participated in the final Time Trial events for the year, #5 and #6.
Both events were held on the same weekend in Mineral Wells with
a good turnout for both.
Bill Dugan wanted to let everyone know that there would be a
Driving Event Rules Committee meeting December 7th. Everyone
is welcome to participate and give comment. Submit all questions
or comments to Bill.

As the membership of Maverick Region has grown so has the
circulation of Slipstream, in turn, the associated amount of effort
and cost. It was proposed to the board that the sorting, mailing and
postage management of Slipstream could be outsourced. At this time
we are considering a variety of options, if anyone can recommend
a postal fulfillment organization please contact Andy Mears.
The meeting ended at 8:11 PM. Next month’s board meeting
will be on November 6.
“Moonlight at the Oasis” Happy Hour

T
he weather forecast was
ominous for our “Moonlight
at the Oasis” happy hour.
Despite that, a smattering of
adventuresome Mavericks ventured
south to Joe Pool Lake, and they
were rewarded with a clearing of the
clouds and a calming of the winds.
Happy Hour Crew: Dennis Chamberlain,
Dee Lersch, and Mark Gluck
We were also rewarded with the
company of none other than the Hill Country region’s registrar
and D.E. instructor Kerry Watson, who had driven all the way

from Austin – her well-known red 944 in tow -- for the happy
hour. (OK, well, she was actually on her way to the Maverick
Region’s MSR D.E., and Joe Pool Lake happened to be in
her path). Kerry apparently arrived early because, by the time
I arrived she was already in a position to recommend their
signature drink, the name of which cannot be repeated in this
family publication. Nonetheless, it was most impressive.

Another unexpected treat was the casual mentioning by
Mark Williams’ that, parked outside, was his new 2003 Boxster
S. Mark Gluck and I practically ripped off the Oasis’ front door
in our haste for our first close-up inspection opportunity. Also,
Mark Williams
during dinner, Kerry was kind enough to modestly answer
some D.E. questions -- including a couple of heel-and-toe
pointers.
Be sure to take notice that our November 21st happy hour
will be at TBC, the indoor racing facility on Stemmons, just
south of Regal Row. The vehicles are electric, and the food is
provided by Sonny Bryan’s.

A Seat in Time
By Lanean Hughes
. . .I know I have lots yet to learn . . .
My first real driving experience in the new car was the
September DE at Motorsport Ranch (MSR). I had a great
support group of “YaYa Sisters” who were also part of this great

The question people asked me most was, “Lanean, when are
you getting a Porsche???” I would respond with, “When the time
is right.” It finally happened in September 2002. Thanks to the
Meredith family, my dream came true. I have a beautiful 1987
Guards Red 944 Turbo with just the right amount of “KiKK!!”

purrs like a kitten!

The next event I participated in was even more exciting as it
brought back so many wonderful memories of calling my
favorite hotel with a “lake view,” visiting with the owner, getting
the latest update on the family and then seeing if there is a room
for me (of course there is)! Getting up very early, loading the car,
taking an extra tire (if you have one), the cooler, the lawn chair,
and clothes for various weather conditions, the BYOB for the
Saturday night gathering, leaving Dallas and, yes, you guessed
it…heading to the “MineralRing.”

Wingfield on the first day and Caren Cooper on the second
day, I am totally in love with this car. Their expertise and
encouragement gave me the confidence I needed to make this
car do what it was intended for - driving at controlled speeds
(and then some) and finding the limits of the car. Heel/Toe, trail
braking, apex… yikes, trying to remember. I was so caught up in
knowing that this was “My Car” that a lot of the driving “buzz
words” just kept spinning in my mind.
Many thanks to those who have helped me fix a few of the
mechanical problems. I know I have lots yet to learn. I can check
the oil, transmission fluid, tire pressure, and every night check

Yes, it’s been a long time, but I’m so glad the “Seat in Time”
finally happened. I can now experience all the thrills again and
wave to all those “P-Cars” in Texas!!

For many years, trips to Mineral Wells (MW) were all we
had. Autocross (AX) and Time Trials (TT) were the only games.
I found the TT Reunion Weekend to be the best! I soon realized
that you don’t really forget the track. It’s like riding a bike again
and you realize how much fun it all was. To my delight Richard
Diller, was there, who many years ago was my instructor at a
driving school in MW. We chatted awhile and then it was my
pleasure to see that great 911 #550 speed around the MW
course.

ALMS at Laguna Seca, September 20-22, 2002
by Bill Stafford
A
as ex Formula 1 drivers JJ Lehto and Max Angelelli brought
the Cadillac Northstar LMP home third. This was their second
consecutive podium finish; unfortunately the timing was just a
bit off as the funding for the LMP program has been terminated
which might not be a bad thing.
The race this year was a month earlier than usual and thus
escaped the higher potential of fall rain. There were several
highlight events at the track. Dr. Don Panoz debuted the New
Star Mazda Racecar (see later in this article) and a Class 8 Super
Truck (8000 pound Semi, 1260 horsepower, twin turbo diesel on
BIG race tires) made an appearance and took a lap at speed to
delight the crowd and try to drum up fans for the Super Truck
Racing Association of North America (STRANA). They plan to
start the series next year. Watch for the STRANA special on ESPN2
in November. Improvements to the track are still underway.
In the LMP-675 (low power LMP) Class, all top three finishers
were in Lola EX257/AER MGs. The top finisher was the Chad

s usual, this years’ American LeMans Series Race at Mazda
Raceway at Laguna Seca was filled with elation, sorrow,
suspense, good food and wonderful weather. Fog, now
labeled “marine layer”, was prevalent as always but didn’t slow
anything but practice and qualifying.
The track is changing – new stands along pit road and bigger
gravel pits and tire barricades for safety. Additional changes in
the upcoming years include new permanent garages with Pit
Row suites above; hillside terraced seating, and a new StartFinish bridge. Overall $11 million of improvements are planned.

The best race of the afternoon took place in the GTS category
as the Ferrari team had some unfinished business to care take
care of from Le Mans. Now that the Ferrari is able to last the
entire race without a mechanical, they’re proving to be the cars
to beat in GTS. Tomas Enge #33-GTS Ferrari 550 Maranello had
the pole in GTS and this was his first time at the track and
hadn’t taken a lap before the first scheduled practice. The Saleen
S7R of Franz Konrad and Terry Borcheller qualified second. The
Corvette Team wasn’t happy to see either the Ferrari or the
Saleen in front of them, but as Andy Pilgrim expressed “it’s good
for the series”. Team Corvette - #3, Ron Fellows and Johnny
O’Connell were knocked into the Turn Four gravel trap by the
Cadillac (déjà vu – same place they put Boris Said last year)
which led to a broken exhaust which led to a fire. In the fire vs.
Justin Jackson #79 LMP 675
In the LeMans Prototype class (LMP-900) the #1 Audi
driven by Emanuele Pirro and Frank Biela scored their second
ALMS win of the year despite the whining and fretting of
Emanuel Pirro. In his defense, Pirro was fighting the flu and the
crew did have to replace the tub due to the crash at the previous
race at Mosport. The “new” chassis was the same one that won at
Le Mans wrenched by Reinhold Joest. Overall they had a good
weekend as they qualified on the pole and enjoyed an essentially
trouble-free race to win by nearly 26 seconds over the Privateer
Champion Audi of Johnny Herbert and Stefan Johansson. Team
Cadillac finally proved that they are not just another pretty face

2nd place GT Class Saleen S7R
took first in a Porsche Cup 911. Peter Cunningham was second
in his Acura NSX and Justin Marks was third in another 911 Cup
car. A local firm (AER) rented Boris Said who managed to motor
a Roush Mustang into 14th place. Something was said about
slippery track. How’s that for bad R.O.I?

There was also a Shifter Cart race. The carting guys are a fun
bunch. They are eager to help each other and completely open
about their gear. Refreshing! There were also lapping the circuit
in about the same lap times as the GTS Corvettes but just 1 inch
off of the ground. WOW! You also get the long vanished odor of
burning Castrol from these horizontal motorcycles.
Dr. Don Panoz unveiled the new Mazda Star series racer.
This basic “affordable” open wheel racecar is being sold for
$66.5k (accessory list still to come). Will this series prove as
popular as the Toyota series? Will it be the platform for young
drivers? For his backing/funding/promotion of the new series
Dr. Panoz was present a very kitschy Mazda R8 Rotor with a
clock in the middle for his, uh, desk… The Star Mazda racecar,
features the same next-generation Mazda rotary engine as the
forthcoming Mazda RX-8, is scheduled for testing in 2003 and
will run in the Star Mazda Series North American
Championship, a support series to the American Le Mans Series,
in 2004. The Star Mazda Series develops racecar driving careers
A pair of Panoz. Not as strong as they once were.
In GT (until recently, the Porsche class), Lucas Luhrs' #23GT Porsche 911 GT3 RS captured his third pole of 2002 and the
seventh of this career. Luhr and Sascha Maasen enjoyed their
fifth win of the year in the GT class with a one-lap victory over
the Anthony Lazzaro/Ralf Kelleners Ferrari 360 Modena. Alex
Job Racing teammates Timo Bernhad and Jorg Bergmeister lost
a sure second place when the Porsches’ gear lever came off in
Berhands hand five laps from the end. Kevin Buckler and Brian
Cunningham survived a horrendous weekend of mechanical
trouble to claim third. Kevin Buckler, Racer’s Group, #66-GT
Porsche 911 GT3 RS, is one of a very few teams that are trying to
complete in both the ALMS and Grand-Am series. Master of the
understatement, Buckler stated “Going from Grand-AM one
weekend to ALMS the next and setting up the car differently for
each series is proving to be tough. It seems like the first two days
of each race weekend we’re going through major setup changes.”
Hmmmm……

composite materials, fire always wins. The corner workers at
the corkscrew were apparently not fully trained on the fire
equipment as they tried to put the fire out from 15 feet away on
the side away from the fire. They did manage to blast the driver
in the face with the powder though. But no one was hurt and the
crowd always loves a good barbeque. Desperate to get a
high podium finish, the other Corvette of Andy Pilgrim and
Kelly Collins, gambled on fuel to outlast the Ferrari, but
apparently ran out 2 laps from the finish leaving them 3rd in
class and 16th overall.

racetracks used for professional events and is one of the most
successful racing series in the U.S. Many well-respected drivers

average of more than 40 racecars started each Star Mazda series
event. Hey, you want a new RX-8? Win the series and get one for

Rat Notes:
Buckler’s #66 911GT3 RS at the corkscrew.
After practice or qualifying most drivers’ comments are very
positive for example: It was nearly perfect, I made a small mistake, the car is the best it has been this weekend, I had a little bit
of over steer, etc. Then there were comments from Jon Field #37P675 MG Lola EX257 on Saturday after the practice session.
“Terrible! The car was a pig. We missed sessions because of the
engine and the clutch. We haven’t moved forward all weekend.”
Whoa, Jon, it’s part MG! - Take a nerve pill and call me in the
morning.

Of Timing Tents and Brain Cells Bent
by Michele deJong
I
do believe a good time was had by all at autocross #5 held at
Pennington field. The kids got lucky and watched movies in the A/C
provided by the Shoffit’s large American (is that in the OA class?)
vehicle. The rest of us adult types gleefully contributed to the already
smoggy air with fast times through a truly LOOPY course by Cody
Sears. More than a few folks had at least one DNF run as the pivot cone
was negotiated and the curls continued. (Who says you have to be
blonde to be dizzy?!)
feat of mental gymnastics. And there’s generally a second or two for
commentary on the radios. WELL! At these intervals, it was all we could
do keep our heads from exploding (imploding?) with the info-flow. As
James said,“This is taking my entire brain, and I’m not sure how much
I had to start with!” Or something to that effect.
Photo by Kevin Hardison
Posting was equally fun as the run groups were in no particular
order and cars in any group were bound to be at totally opposite ends
of the posting board. With the loss of Mike in the afternoon, James had
to call the class as well as the car number so Myra had a better chance
of finding the correct driver. (“OA, OJ, OG OH SH--!) The brain cells
further warped upon finding a couple of CUVs (completely unknown
vehicles) on the course—ACK. (Ok—white OG #77, now red OJ #77)
Thanks to grid for putting up with the occasional glitch due to our
whirling eyeballs and timing lines being crossed by two-legged beasties
instead of 4-wheeled toys.
So—if you encountered James or myself on the road after the fun,
you now understand the “Bill the Cat” meets “The Pointy-haired Boss”
look on our faces! I had to remind myself that I made a prime target for
law-enforcement types due to the “Porsche factor” and idiot-avoidance
tactics. Thanks for a WONDERFULLY mind-bending and FUN
Saturday, everyone! TTFN
Michele deJong playing catch with her new ducktail.
Top 10 Times of the Day
Mike and I haven’t been out much lately, so a combination of rusty
driving skills and slippery street tires made for some amusing “toss and
catch”, but we did have the silly grin that comes from NOT losing it and
improving times. (Although Mike’s fix for “Spinner”- a ducktail- wasn’t
enough to prevent style points on cooked tires) The variety of cars (lots
of OTHER makes) and drivers was fun to watch and we met some folks
that we hadn’t had the chance to greet yet. (Hi, again.)

Now, about that timing tent. Worker assignments were graciously
made with kids in mind (thank you!) which meant Mike and I were in
posting and timing. I did timing with Wendy and James trying to keep
track of cars crossing lines at less than 15sec intervals, finding said cars
on the timing sheets, acknowledging and recording times, cones hit,
DNF’s, etc., and calling times etc to posting. For those of you who have
worked timing before, you know that this isn’t ordinarily all that great a
