Daily Nord Stern Historical Photo II


The concours site on the golf course with Madden's Resort in the background. Looks much the same today.









In August of 1976, Nord Stern hosted the 21st Porsche Parade. The headquarters was at Madden's Resort and the autocross at Brainerd International Raceway. It was a remarkable undertaking for a Region with less than 100 members. Just under 500 attended. There were basically 15 Nord Sterners that organized the whole event! This Parade is highly regarded to this day for it's resort setting, high speed autocross, and interesting rally. Porsche sent Manfred Jantke and Jacky Ickx with the then current 936. Remarkably they showed it at Madden's and then towed it all the way to BIR!
