Scissors and Scotch

Our group arrived between 3:30 and 4:30. The center had blocked off the streets, and we found our way to Scissors and Scotch. We backed in and opened the trunks.

By the time we started (5:30), we had lined up seven Carreras and were ready to hand out candy.

We all thought we had too much candy and would be taking it home. We provided between 150 and 200 pounds of sugary delights in total. Little did we know that in 2024, they had over 4,000 people and expected the same [...]

Greetings to all our wonderful Porsche family!

October was filled with fun and exciting times. Let me share some of the activities that took place this month for those who missed them. These events are featured in this month’s newsletter.

FALL COLORS TOUR

The Fall Colors Tour in Utah (actually held the last weekend of September) was a great drive led by Ken Hollman. We wound through Utah from Hurricane (pronounced Hurakahn) all the way to Cedar City via Colorado City. We then drove up through the mountains to Duck Creek, where we were greeted with the stunning fall colors of yellow and orange as far as the eye could see. It was an absolutely wonderful drive, and we had a great turnout with 31 attendees. We’re already looking forward to it again next fall, and it’s only been a couple of weeks!

VOLUNTEER DAY AT JUST ONE STEP

We also had a Volunteer Day [...]

Who Doesn’t Love Car Marketing Materials?

By: Jordan Godorov

I am a huge fan of automobile history. I love seeing vehicles from the past in, not only true form, but also in paper form. As a kid, I loved collecting brochures on all types of vehicles. I would bring them home and study them for hours. Those days truly made me into a car fanatic.

With the Internet bringing all sorts of information to the world, some evil geniuses have compiled a free online database accessible to anyone with a web-surfing device. It’s called Auto Catalog Archive (www.autocatalogarchive.com). From the ACA Website –

“This website – it is a journey through the history of cars. An extensive archive of brochures from all over [...]

Every year, the day after Vegas AUTOFEST, a group of car enthusiasts gathers for a beloved tradition: a drive along the scenic North Shore Road of Lake Mead. This year’s outing, blessed with ideal weather, brought together a close-knit crew of friends, their distinctive Porsches, and a shared enthusiasm for the journey—despite feeling the effects of the previous night’s late celebration.

Romi led the group in his striking 934 turbo race car, its bold presence setting the pace. Following him was Anthony from Hour Smiths, a sponsor from Idaho, who joined the drive in JP’s well-worn but reliable Porsche 964 C4 Cabriolet, enjoying the open top in the crisp desert air.

Deeb and Sahand, who traveled from San Francisco to help with the show, joined the convoy. Deeb, JP’s Bid Nerds partner, drove Romi’s 997 Turbo convertible, while Sahand took the wheel of the rare Ruf 993 turbo coupe. Both navigated the road with evident [...]
