RACING RECAP!

Park your Porsche in the circle in front of the clubhouse next to other beautiful works of automobile design and craftmanship. Enjoy a morning chatting with old and new friends in the comfort of a sunlit dining room at Red Rock Country Club.

Where:       Red Rock Country Club, 2500 Red Springs Road 89135

Cost:          $30.00 per person. Register by Noon Friday, June 7th  

Notice the price increase. As we all know, our economy is still in an inflationary cycle.  Red Rock CC has had to raise their prices due to their increased costs. Neither RRCC nor our club will make a profit. With a private room in a beautiful setting with Rock Star parking and our guest speakers, think of this as an event!!!

We have planned a drive for May that is a three-day, two-night event starting May 13th and ending on May 15th.

Our driver’s meeting will start at 9:30am with a planned departure at 10:00am.This is a National Park, so fees apply but if you have a park pass (especially the nifty Senior Pass) you are already good to go. Otherwise, you will pay a fee of $25.00 for a seven-day pass.  

Once through the gate we take the first left which is State Route 167north all the way to Logandale and the junction of Interstate15. We will travel north on I15 north to Exit 112 Riverdale/Bunkerville just outside [...]

SPANISH COOKING AT IT’S BEST!

By Reid Smith

If you have not eaten at Tres Cazuelas yet, you need to! What a great experience in Iberian Peninsula cuisine. Club members started with a wine tasting and then proceeded to the cooking presentation. Chef Angelo Reyes took us through the steps of preparing paella. Originally, this dish from the 1800’s combined your weekly leftovers, but now it is quite a delicacy. The right ingredients and careful preparation is the key to a tasty dinner. Rather than leftovers, our paella included rice, chicken, pork belly, jumbo shrimp, mussels and clams seasoned just right. Yum!

Hello Porsche Friends!

The 2024 Timeline Registration is officially OPEN.  Our first event in Big Bear last year was a huge success.  It was so big that we needed to expand our booking with the city to accommodate 200+ cars which means our costs have gone up.  We have added a Welcome Party and a Farwell Concert to the roster so we hope you can spend the entire weekend with us on the mountain!

We will SELL OUT.  Sign up and secure you spot soon!

The LVR Board and 50 th Committee have been working for months on our big Birthday bash. What a time
we had! There were many things to do at the celebration. Listen to the fine vocals of Michael Ross
Nugent, get your picture taken at the step and repeat with Las Vegas Showgirls, view our charter and
other memorabilia of our club’s earlier years, eat Wicked donuts, and view over 150 Porsches! We had
Porsche visitors from Leipzig and Switzerland join us in the celebration. Past Presidents shared
interesting stories about club members during their watch.
If that was not enough, 100 enthusiasts departed at 12:30pm for a trip up to Mt. Charleston. We were
greeted with snow along the roadway and delicious Geo’s Tacos. The drive topped off a great day!

We had scheduled a tour of the Phil Maloof Car Collection last October and we quickly sold out the 25 slots that we were allotted. I asked Danny Barnett, the tour guide, if we could schedule another visit in a few months. Danny agreed, and we again sold out our 25 slots for the February 25th tour in a hurry.  Those who attended were not disappointed. Treated to pastries, the tour of about 100 cars in a dozen garages began.

It was a rainy, cold January weekend in which we celebrated our 50th Anniversary at our annual Winter Gala. At least we did not have any outdoor activities or drives planned. As guests arrived and signed in, the big surprise was that they were then ushered to our photo corner where we took their picture flanked by two gorgeous Las Vegas Showgirls! The young ladies are the same ones you see at the Golden Knights games, known as the Golden Bells.
