PAGE 3 CIMARRON TRAIL PRESIDENT'S PERSPECTIVE By J ason To l l i son Summer is here and so are the Porsches and people driving them. I have been seeing an increasing number of Porsches on the road and this makes me happy. Porsche recently celebrated their 70th year and dealers across the country put together coinciding events to showcase the cars developed and sold over that 70 years. One of our biggest supports Jackie Cooper Porsche invited our region to bring a sampling of cars to showcase for the event. We had a terrific turnout with some amazing cars. Many I did not know where in the area. We had another successful Tech Session presented by another of our biggest supporter Rennsport Werkstatt. Brian Thomas covered the topic of buying a used Porsche, specifically what to look for in a car that could be potential minor or major issues, how to use these points to negotiate your purchase, and what are signs to just walk away. With the hands-on demonstration it was easy to understand the technical jargon, this was a very valuable lesson and was very well attended. I am looking forward to future Cimarron Tech Sessions. The next big event if you haven’t heard is the 63rd Annual Porsche Parade at the Lake of the Ozarks. This is practically in our backyard which offers many a chance to attend with disrupting busy schedules without long traveling times. If you attend the Parade please send your stories and photos to our Cimarron Trail editor so that we can share your adventures in upcoming issues. Our Membership report shows we have a total of 431 members including Primary and co-members. My information tells me this is the highest number recorded for our region. I want to express a warm welcome to all the new members and thank you to the existing members for joining our club. Go drive that car! - Jason Tollison
