From the President’s Desk

Our Board has been quite busy planning for Las Vegas Region’s 50^th Anniversary. It will be quite a celebration that will take place on April 20^th, the same day of the inception of our charter, in 1974. Make sure that you sign up soon as we are having to limit attendance. Gaudin Porsche has generously provided their venue for the morning. Check out the article and registration in this issue of Desert Drives. SIGN UP SOON! Also, check out the 50^th Anniversary Gear website. Great prices on quality merchandise.

Topock is an Arizonan town that most have never heard of, or let alone, visited. Topock 66 BBQ and Grill was a very interesting destination for our day drive in February. The historic mountain Route 66 Highway through Oatman brought smiles to Porschephile’s faces. It has been a favorite late winter drive for our club during the last few years.

Our first High Performance Driver’s Education of the year will take place March 16-17 at Spring Mountain Motorsports Raceway in Pahrump. We offer run groups that span from Beginning to Advanced Levels. A new offering is targeting those who want to see what it is like to track your Porsche. On Sunday the 17^th we are offering a Taste of the Track Test Drive. You will receive an orientation and ride with an instructor on the track. See details in this issue! 

We have information on this year’s Porsche Sprint Challenge at the end of the month. Hopefully, by the time you read this I will have been able to get more information and a schedule for the weekend at Spring Mountain Motorsports Raceway in Pahrump. You can currently sign up for the tailgate lunch on that Saturday.

The multi-region get-together at Tuacahn in St. George has been postponed for now. I would imagine it will take place in the Fall.

Looking forward to seeing you at our events!
