March / April 2016 26 down. I carried the sales number 001 in the 5 state new Mid-America Porsche-Audi Distributorship at St Louis Mo., where much great training was had by myself and others in the mid-West. The best event for Speedy was the Ozark Weekend in 1971, which was one of the events that Don Rohrs and I as co-activities Chairmen of K.C.R. P.C.A. devised that year. My wife Pat and I met at that event. I can't begin to expand to tell the many happenings Speedy and I shared over those years. Ask me sometime about 'The Great Spin.' Speedy's sale helped us into our first home. It went to a professional from N.Y. City who an- swered my ad in Hemmings. I confess to tears when it drove away from our life. I continued owning Porsche and Audi cars, but that... that was the one. I'm happy to have sold many of the best de- signed and most popular driver's sports car of those years, when models 911T-E-S, 912-E, 914- 4, 914-6, 904, 906, and 917, and 924, made sales records or racing records around the world. I'm also proud to have outsold salesmen in 5 states in a 911 sales contest during 1971. It got me a long weekend in Nassau and Golf game with Chi Chi Rodriguez. Smile. My work as a car salesman stopped during the late 1970's, and I returned to the printing business. After many years of partial retirement, I am pleased to once again be a co-owning member of the Porsche Club of America. - LARRY Speedy's sale helped us into our first home.
