We decided, before exploring Porsche ownership, that these cars would be everyday drivers and more. This summer we embarked on one of those “and more” odysseys as we hit the road for 28 days in our 2011 Panamera 4S. A quick shout out to Todd and Trophy Performance, who were happy to provide a pre-trip oil change and inspection. Given the green light that the car was good to make the 9200-mile round trip, we departed early on July 20. The air conditioning worked flawlessly as we headed north and east into Colorado. We never had a temperature over 85 the rest of the trip. We had unwittingly escaped the record heatwave affecting the southwest; a blessing to be sure.

Jim Roal joined the PCA in 2004 shortly after buying his first Porsche, a 1987 944S.  About a year later he met the president of the Lincoln Trail PCA (the region where he lived at the time) and mentioned that the website was out-of-date.  On the spot the president made him the webmaster for the region.  During the time Jim was in Illinois and part of the Lincoln Trail region, he held various positions including webmaster, newsletter editor, vice president, and membership chair.  

Jim enjoys HPDE.  He drove his first HPDE with the Chicago Region PCA at Blackhawk Farms in Illinois in 2005.  He was hooked and has been attending HPDE about once a year ever since.

Jim and his wife bought a home in Las Vegas in 2020 but kept the Cayman S at their Illinois home until they sold that home in 2022 and brought the Cayman S to Las Vegas and transferred [...]
