March / April 2014 28 KYLE starts it off: I blame my Porsche addiction on my father. However, I would assume that there are worse addictions in this world that sons can blame their fathers on. Between countless 944s, a Boxster, and a Cayenne, I've owned my fair share of these awesome rides in my short life. The Cayenne aside, I'm currently in- between sports cars. The Boxster is out, but I hold high hopes of upgrading to a 997 Cabriolet. As I stated previously, it's an addiction. And on a side note, being a member of KCRPCA for three years now, I've noticed the prognosis doesn't improve with age... Let alone from the Porsches, another craving my father and I share is competitiveness... mainly towards each other. Whether it is DIY home remodeling projects, sharpshooting, golf, tennis or catching the fattest largemouth bass, there is no room for compromise. Too much ego is at stake! This is why we love what KCRPCA Autocross has to offer. It's always a challenging course set up by Rudy Rodriquez and gang, with state-of- the-art timing equipment run by Rudy's awesome wife (unless King Richard Bennett runs it over), and a fun group of KCRPCA members that are looking to take their driving skills to the next level. All humor aside, I don't know why it took me all of these years to finally try out an autocross. It was such an intense and euphoric feeling I am the King of the family in autocross, period. Enough said - because I am the "Father". FATHER- SON BONDING... WITH CONES
