It was a chilly morning as we assembled at Railroad Pass in anticipation for our drive to Topock AZ. A sizable group divided into two groups of 12 cars lined up and were ready to go. The drive to Kingman, our first stop, was fairly boring except for spend most of the time dodging sizeable pot-holes. Arizona should pave their roads! When we turned on to Route 66 the drive got interesting, especially when we hit the twisties. Porsches are built for tight turns on narrow roads and we made the most of it. We were temporarily delayed by an active shooting in the old west town of Oatman. After they cleared the carnage, we were able to proceed through town. I did see a sign that the [...]

For those who missed the Tri-State Rally with our friends in Phoenix, it was a huge success with a great turnout. Others will fill you in on the drive, the Cars and Coffee and the overall event in their reports. For me without a doubt the highlight was the secret private car collection we saw. Last year we were treated to another fabulous secret collection and as impressive as it is this one was bit a smaller but it really spoke to my heart.

Wow, did we make the right decision! Although we’ve participated in many Club events we have not, until now, participated in a multi-day trip/drive. Having decided to register for this 3-club event we were anxious, excited and eager to make the drive to Phoenix and join the Phoenix and Utah clubs for the weekend.
A big highlight for us was the planned 75-mile Sonoran Drive on Saturday morning. After an early start with the Cars and Coffee event, the group was split into 3 groups (we had over 60 cars participating) we headed out for what would be an incredible drive with awe inspiring views [...]

The LVR Phoenix Fun Run got off to a fabulous start. All Fun Runners were ready to go in the chilly morning air, after waivers had been signed, goodie bags had been handed out, and the driver’s meeting concluded. The bumpy, yet at times spirited, drive from Railroad Pass Casino to Kingman AZ went well. After a second stop in Wickenburg AZ, we safely arrived in the Phoenix area. Everyone made it to their lodging, got settled, and regathered for a fun and yummy Mexican dinner. Everyone appreciated the drive, the dinner, and our time together. We parted company to get some rest for Saturday’s early start.
